Other than that if we keep it friendly and mature nothing will happen. I mean obviously I dislike the Browns, but I am not a hater to the point of joining the board just to spout off about how much Cleveland sucks...
No, we just stick to facts around here ... Ray Lewis was guilty of obstructing justice in two murders and Art Modell is already rotting in hell.

At least you stuck to a fact and didn't call him a murderer. Also, pretty sure Modell isn't rotting in Hell...I can already see that the Modell topic will be too sensitive for you guys to handle.
Isn't that old news by now?

Its OK, he can be here. He just needs to be aware that his hide must be as thick as a Rhinoceros.
Don't worry I won't hate on you guys too much. I am just a Ravens fan...not a Browns basher

Being a Ravens fan is enough for us to skewer your hide. All I am saying is don't act surprised when that happens.

Ray Lewis very well may be a murderer that got away with it. Art Modell should rot in hell.
But, no, I don't think Ozzie is a traitor, nor do I think the Ratbirds Super Bowls should be the Browns.
So you are batting 50/50.
And no matter how many Super Bowls Baltimore may win, Cleveland will never suck as bad as Baltimore.
I mean, come on, Man. You were expecting daisys and puppies when you signed up here?

First off, Daisys and Puppies? LOL that was funny, but no I didn't expect that. On the other hand, I didn't expect stupidity.
Ray didn't murder anyone, he was guilty of obstruction of justice (plus this is like 17 years old) hands washed and time to move on honestly regardless of what team you like.
Glad we agree on Ozzie and Ravens super bowls because many Browns fans don't agree with that.
As for Modell, he shouldn't rot in hell for many many reasons....we could talk about that for hours.
Also, you may have to elaborate on the Baltimore sucking more than Cleveland bit...because in terms of football I think only morons would agree with your suggestion....

Just because Jews don't believe in hell doesn't mean there isn't one. And if Modell is not rotting in hell....then he is doing some serious Purgatory time.
As for the issue about him being sensitive.....No, its not sensitive. Trust me, it is YOU who would be the one that would act Butt hurt over it when the facts are revealed to you. You are clearly light on your knowledge of those facts based on your previous comments.
By the way, how does it feel to be a fan of one of only 2-3 teams to have had its owner kicked out of the league?

Oh i'd never be surprised...I feel for the Browns fan....remember I am an Orioles fan LOL....we have it just as bad when it comes to a lackluster ownership and poor organizational structure. I get it.
But I just don't get some of the idiotic statements from some. Especially those under the age of like 25-30

Art Modell should (and hopefully is) rotting in hell. Ozzie isn't a traitor. I wish he was working in the Browns front office but I understand he had to go where the job was at the time.

Damn, I hate the Ratbirds, not as much as the Steelers, but its real close.
That being said, why the hell did the Ratbirds change their offensive scheme after winning a Super Bowl? Ray Rice looked like crap in it, after looking like LT for a few years.

LOL whats to hate so much about BALTIMORE and the RAVENS? We didn't do anything to you other than beat you like every time we play LOL (gotta allow me one snicker here and there

As for the offensive scheme...we actually ran many zone blocking schemes during the SUPER BOWL year....people blow that out of proportion. What actually transpired was injuries on the O-line and shuffling because of it...not to mention a rookie center who was undersized and over matched who will no longer be starting next year. Ray Rice on the other hand dealt with a awfully bad hip injury that he kept under the blanket for most of the year and a hideous Offensive line, so it was more injuries and poor play rather than scheme.
Also, what is your take on a ravens head coach and assistants all from Baltimore? (Pettine, Montgomery, Weaver, Moeller, etc.)?

I just can't understand all the hate for Art Modell...ok yes he moved the team, but remember Baltimore knows what that's like as well (and even worse) sorry it was worse...I know you will disagree, but it was.
Bottom line....is Cleveland was left its history, colors, heritage and promise to have team returned witin 3 years (and it was)....also, here in Baltimore we got over the whole Colts thing long ago. Plus i'm 25, so I was born without a football team in town.

Adolph Hitler didn't kill anyone either, he just directed things. Possibly the same as RayRay. I understand what he was convicted of....and OJ Simpson is completely innocent as well. Being "not guilty" is not the same as being innocent. I am an attorney/magistrate. You want to get into the niceties of the law, we can. You just have to pay the retainer to be educated.

Art Modell is a turncoat and a whore. He tried to take the team away from here purely out of his own greed for money.
And he got that money....the 75 million Baltimore gave him......but even that could not make up for the fact that he was incompetent and inept to the point that the banks that lent him money were threatening foreclosure of the Ravens franchise.
At that point the NFL stepped in saying they have had enough of his ineptitude and ordered the sale of the franchise to avoid the calamity of the foreclosure.
The good thing for you is that you found a good owner for your team. So be happy about it.
Also, you may have to elaborate on the Baltimore sucking more than Cleveland bit...because in terms of football I think only morons would agree with your suggestion....
Really? The last time I noticed the Pro Football Hall of Fame is located outside of Cleveland, not Baltimore. The Cleveland area has won more football championships than any other city/region (tied with Green Bay).

Well, you are young......and you are either ill informed. or a complete dumbass if you say you cannot understand the hate for Model Or apparently you are a hypocrite of the first degree.
Ask your parents how much love they have in their hearts for Robert Irsay. Then maybe you will get a clue.

I'm sure it's just that he's too young to know truly know what it feels like to have your team stolen. At least he's not a hypocrite like most Ravens fans who hate the Indianpolis Colts and think that should be their team (it should) but have no problem supporting another stolen team.

I am very proud to be a Ravens fan...we have an amazing fan base and our franchise is one of 5 model franchises that has 2nd best home field winning percentage...multiple super bowls in the last two decades and and an organization that has shelled out the most front office staff and assistant coaches in the league. I know my facts trust me. (I hope you know your current HC and now assistants are all Ravens guys).
Modell may have upset your city with his move, but he left the most important stuff behind. Not to mention you only see the bad in what he did. You don't see the other side of it. So it goes both ways.

Modell didn't have a goddamn thing to do with "leaving" anything behind. It was the NFL that intervened and said that they want the Cleveland Browns franchise to stay in Cleveland. So, it was they and the Court system that decreed that those things be "left".
And you say that we don't see the other side of it. Please explain what that other side is.

Has this become a hatred against Jews now? Using them twice in examples now? First off to call Ray Lewis a MURDERER is wrong...he was never convicted of that. Its your opinion, but its false. I respect your Law knowledge, but I also think that guilty people eventually get their due...like OJ and like George Zimmerman looks like hes going to get soon. As for Ray, if he was in fact guilty he will eventually pay, but my gut says he was just caught up with the wrong people at the wrong time.

First of all, any smart business man would move his business if he wasn't going to get what was needed to sustain it. I run a business and if my funders were no longer willing to support I wouldn't just let me business rot. Also, I get your upset with his move, but you have to understand Modell even after leaving spoke glowingly of CLE and he left what was important....colors, history, jerseys, heritage, records. He left that with CLE so that the new franchise that would soon take over could live on the history of CLE football, so don't be sorry about that....All Baltimore Colts fans don't have that luxury my friend.

LOL always living the past I see...pretty sure you've never won a Super Bowl and almost positive the Baltimore Colts/Baltimore Ravens have been much more successful than the CLE football franchise, but okay. Hows your baseball team doing? LOL Cleveland baseball really has a rich tradition...psh not so much. We are a smaller city, so we don't have a basketball team anymore plus we aren't a college football city...which makes our city unique, but when the Bullets were around they were darn more successful than the Cavaliers (lord) lol.

If you lived here, you would understand.
I almost got sent home from work the day Art made the announcement down on the Baltimore harbor. Google "Mike Ditka" commenting on the Browns move....it was a dark day in NFL history, just like the Colts fleeing in '83.

Well, you are young......and you are either ill informed. or a complete dumbass if you say you cannot understand the hate for Model Or apparently you are a hypocrite of the first degree.
Ask your parents how much love they have in their hearts for Robert Irsay. Then maybe you will get a clue.

My parents don't like Robert Irsay, but they moved on from that and embraced their football team. We don't sit here in Baltimore and dwell on Robert Irsay or the Colts....everyone in CLE hates Baltimore purely on Art Modell...you waited 3 years to get a football team back. We waited 12 years and weren't promised anything. Got passed over by Jax, Ari, etc. for expansion by the dumbass commish Tagliabue.
Bottom line is, what is important in a franchise (history, heritage, records, colors) was never taken from Cleveland....what about Baltimore?

This is where you are wrong....it is ALL thanks to Art Modell. You don't understand the history...football in Baltimore is a miracle and a miracle made by Art. Baltimore is the perfect football city and when he moved it here it brought all this new history and love.

The other side is simple....the NFL ordered all of that is perfect. It leads me right into the fact that where was the NFL when Robert Irsay just snuck out of town to a lowly Indy city that has no interest in colts and history of Baltimore or football in general. Also, where was the NFL to order all the history of BALTIMORE football to be kept behind in Baltimore? Huh? Pretty sure the Baltimore Colts history since their existence is much more sacred then the Cleveland Browns...Baltimore was one of the winningest franchises in all of football (but how come no one cared about their drunk owner moving the team?)
