Elf come back?

  • I'm fine with keeping the dog pound. I always thought that little guy with the pointed ears was a Brownie, another mythological Woodland Sprite, rather than an elf. Not particularly choked up by the modernized dog face but dogs also Harkens back to the seminal, or at least one of them, football team the Canton Bulldogs.

    And I Brownie. Just don't put it on the fukkin helmet.

     The last time I sat in the Pound was with my then 5 year old Grandson, Michael. We beat Cinci that day. He goes to at least 1 game a year with me, but nothing beats the fun he had with the Dawg Pound crowd.

    Was this the season we beat Buffalo next on TNF? If so, sister & I was right above you.On a gorgeous football weather day. Went back thursday to sit with season ticket holders in Dawgpound with Bills. Thought Weeden's bomb to Gordon was targeted for me when in the air..Great week trip, left town in 1st place. Let's do it again..

    In looking back, Michael was only 4, year was 2010 & we were sitting in row 9 of the Dawg Pound. all he wanted to eat was an order of nachos, took a "mini tour" at halftime. when it started raining, he zipped his jacket, put his hood up & kept watching the game, Browns beat Bengals. He has been a rabid Browns' Fan ever since.

    I was at both those games too, with a bunch of guys I met on here.

    That was my favorite moment since 2007, winning those two games at home, and I was there for both.

    The little wr we had that went to SD scored a punt return against the Bills that changed that game. Can't remember his name right now ... early onset?

    Star Wars. But both kind of resemble each other. 

    Didn't the old time players flat refuse to wear the fairy brownie logo on their uniforms once?

    I do the Star Wars / Star Trek thing on purpose to troll the nerds.

    Never heard that story about the elf. I wouldn't put him on the uniform, but on stuff like this, hell ya!

  • The elf is classic and awesome maybe a little elf logo on the sleeve or where they put patches?

    I do remember the story about the players refusing to wear the brownie on their uniforms on the field.....don't blame them, if I were in pee-wee football I'd be embarrassed to wear it. Even our 5th grade uniforms were regular football helmets and pads for flag football, Penn State style helmets red with a white stripe.

    My three favorite football teams have the three greatest helmets in sports:

    Browns, Nittany Lions, Fighting Irish.

    We don't need no stinkin' logos.

    Love Ohio State's too ... before they start putting the marijuana stickers on it during the season.

  • I grew up with the Elf, was 4 years old when updated to this... image.jpeg.e63aca32124b5ad464dc88eb1324a03d.jpegin 1950, but I prefer THIS Elf...image.jpeg.a478d6e24ea70af6683748f28335f0e7.jpeg

    which is what they have used for TC & hope they stick with. I have a feeling (hopefully a correct feeling) that they are bringing back the looks of when we were a WINNER! Let's bring back the winning LOOK, winning LOGO, & winning TRADITION!! the time is NOW!!

    Oh-oh Z...

    1) Hoyer didn't go down in the Bengals' game..it was against the Bills.

    2) The little WR is Travis Benjamin.

    You're slippin' but not yet TOTALLY gone!  ?

    PS...Wanna buy my Danny Shelton Lava-lava?  🙄

    I wonder if the Browns using the old elf on their training camp stuff is a sign that in two years they go back to their traditional unis…

  • The Brownie Elf is the best mascot ever. 

    Love to see him with a legit dogpound mascot....

    The uniforms actually have some pretty cool combinations but we never really used my favorite ones. I guess we're slated to get some new designed uniforms in what 2020? 

  • The dawg thing was Dixon & Minnifield.      The elf is the Browns.

    I love dogs....though dogs are not Browns.   But that's just me.

    Although the creation was Dixon and Minifield it's become ingrained in the identity of the Browns. It would be a shame IMO to abounding it now when we finally might have some bite and bark back. 

  • Dawg pound is a place where other teams should hate and we love to have.  Raiders have the black hole.  We should have our intimidating area back.

    A lot of people across the country and around the world have mentioned that very thing......even though the new dawg pound is somewhat a spayed and neutered version of the original,  but hey that happens, new digs, slightly new attitude.
