  • If it were up to me is simply switch the home uniform to orange for a season and use the Brown as an alternate and see how well that went over. If it went over well the next season I'd use an orange jersey and a white helmet.

  • Oh no a white helmet...but but but but but...tradition...oh wait the browns helmet was originally white? Well shit.

  • first off i wanna know where you work?

    armani suit? are you a lawyer, a sports agent or CEO of some fortune 500 company? sure 'black' people as you said can pull off an orange suit, but look ridiculous doing so. they do it to gain attention and try to set themselves apart in the media's eyes. if you came to work wearing an orange suit where i had worked in the past.....believe me you wouldn't be wearing it again. you'd be laughed out of the room. same way these 'black' people like to wear goof sweater vests with black rimmed glasses with no lenses in them. how's that going over at the morning meeting, steve urkell?

    who feels better in a suit. i sure as hell don't. if you actually looked at what people are wearing to work in your generation for some of the most popular and most profitable companies in the past decades (not financial co's) but tech, ad and media, people are wearing surf shorts and concert tees. the more comfortable=the more productive=the more profitable. sure the big wigs gotta get dressed up once in a while, but did you ever see steve jobs wear a suit. hell the first ad agency i worked for had a video game room so when you needed a break from the 13 gour days you were doing as an intern you didn't feel that crushed by the 'man'.

    i agree with a lot of things you say about the browns, but you gotta get off this uniform change shit because you are really starting to show your age and i think 33 is 20 years too high in your case.

  • Man, really, objectively read some of your own posts before boasting about your own maturity in posting. Don't be ridiculous. Wanting to see the same old same old get changed up is not juvenile.

  • They aren't going to change the colors. The players are going to have to "feel better" in a new variation of the same colors.

    And again...thank God it's not up to you.

  • Hey mark, you just parroted that off of me to begin with, buddy. Stick it.

    Which is all I said to begin with

  • pay me $1 mil a year and i'd dress up like a french fry and stand out in the middle of a parking lot doing handstands all day.....(yeah, maybe i could pull off one handstand a day, but you get my drift).

    just don't understand why it is SOOOOOOO fuggin important for the browns to do anything to the uniforms? i mean does it keep you up at night? you should worry about shit like GOD i hope there isn't another military draft or shit like, man i hope i don't get my fiat repossessed.

    Because....the browns....blow. that's why. Try to spark a change from somewhere. They. Suck. The glory days are over a long long time ago. Cleveland is my home so I can't root for the Pittsburgh Steelers or the Baltimore ravens but this isn't Jim browns team anymore. Jim Brown is a septegenarian. Brian sipe had his one good season the year I was born. Bernie led the browns to the best record in the NFL when I was what....five? Seven? The same old same old browns have sucked and looked crappy doing it my whole life. Unless a miracle happens and weeden shapes the fuck up in a real hurry they'll go 5-11 again. Go out and get the next Peyton Manning and I won't give two shits about the uniform.

    You idiots know what's really stupid and gay? Living in the past! Most of us can't even remember the years of your treasured memories. They've got to give us something to be excited about and it sure as hell looks,like its not going to be a winning product any time soon

    Good because you haven't contributed crap except for being a lousy sycophant.

    i get your point but nothing in your post suggests a reason for changing the uniform. do you think penn state will ever change their unis?

    some things are more important than selling flashy jerseys (BTW if you think players are coming here to play via FA because of any uniform change you are wrong.....it's all about the dollar dollar bill ya'll). tradition being one of them. who cares what these other teams decide to do to their uniforms. they are not the cleveland browns.

    would you want someone to come into your house look at the way your grandfather, your dad or you, let's say cook rice and beans or steak or whatever after generations of doing it the same way, and tell you to do it another way because it's a new technique but it will only change the flavor a little bit, except you and your family would taste the difference in a second and go along with it cuz it's a 'new' trend? you'd tell them to go fuck themselves. i guarantee it.

    this ain't fashion week in NYC or paris. this is football.

  • Well hell you know what's not gay? Suffering through another ten seasons of 5-11 football.

  • That's the tradition of the browns for at least 14 seasons (and several before the move)

  • and putting on a different colored pair of socks is going to change that?

  • It'll hopefully entice some young, selfish, image obsessed douches (almost every single player in the NFL) to not phone it in in Cleveland.

  • And serve as a visual symbol that things are different in Cleveland. Let me clue you in...guys like josh Gordon don't give the first damn about the tradition of the browns. He's phoning it in just like so many others before him.

  • Listen, I don't care if they want to switch up the unis a bit. But not because its going to make the players feel better and therefore perform better.

    That's just fucking stupid.

    Once they are on the field, their career is on line every week, you've got coaches barking at you, and you'll get hammered if you aren't 100% invested. No one is thinking about the uniform at that point. No one.
