The Browns Board

  • I have rules around bandwagon fans. If you were previously a fan of the Steelers, Ravens or Bengals PISS OFF you are not welcome. I am open to those from other teams or the Baker bandwagoners from Okie.

    If I ever meet a ‘Browns fan’ that says they were previously a Steelers or Ravens fan...... Holy shit,  I just hope if it happens it’s on a day I’m not working

    I can't disagree.

    That will be some of my family and friends that were born here who are FRAK's.. I expect them to become instant Browns fans soon as we take the league by storm!

  • I told my friend and co season ticket holder (his health isn't the greatest) selling his share of the tickets on StubHub or NFL Ticket Exchange just got a hell of a lot easier. Back in the 0-16 season a few games or 20 yard line seats didn't sell, and it got so bad ticket exchange let Browns fans list tickets for less than face value. Several games that did sell he got 30 cents on the dollar for them.

    And personally- I'm tired of being surrounded by fans of other teams because other season ticket holders weren't even bothering to show up for the games...

  • This is America.  People can root for whoever they want.  It's not up to me to determine the motivation.  We are a aging fanbase.  Those bandwagoners  will have kids who will root for the team and continue to root for the team.

    Welcome aboard.

  • I know a couple guys who only root for teams that win. squealers, sure. patriots, sure.

    they used to be niner fans back in the joe montana days ,etc.

    last year, the chiefs...

        doesn't bother me, but I don't bother to ever have any reason to socialize with em.

    Bring along someone like ................................oh I don't know.......................................maybe Garrett or someone of that level and I say "Welcome aboard!"?

    Ha, you’re a guy l thought of when l read this. We both arrived to the board around the same time with the Manziel draft, and man, the hazing you took, haha.

    But years later, here you still are.

    My recommendation to watch Garrett from his freshman year on saved my bacon my man. Sorry the Browns had to pay the price of worst in the NFL to get him, but I'm glad he's ours. 

    EDIT: He had an older brother who crashed and burned in the NBA exactly the way Manziel did here, so he has never had a drink or any mind altering substances in his life, plus he works his tail off every day to be the best in the NFL at his position. It paid off with the Pro Bowl and All Pro this past season.

  • I agree with the thought that ALL are welcome.. EXCEPT. Former Steeler's fans or Ravens fans or Bengal's fans...  OR Dallas Fans.... Why Dallas, just because I don't like them 🙂 ...

    My brother hit the eject button 7 or 8 years ago on the Browns after being a lifelong Browns fan... Though I love him, HE is not welcome back into the Browns fandom... Other than that, all are welcome. Oh except Patriots fans as well.. They don't get to come over here after the decade they've had.. Go suck an egg and learn what its like to support a team when they sucked.. Unless they are really old Patriots fans and they remember when they wore paper bags over their heads.. They are welcome...

    Other than that. All are welcome 🙂🙂 ..

    Bobpound!

  • And pretty much the entirety of the NFC except Lions fans.. Fuck the NFC and their damned domes... Don't expect to come over to our team and then bitch and whine about how cold Cleveland is in January.. Screw them. NOT WELCOME!  And while we are at it, don't expect to come bouncing over to the Browns from the South East or West AFC.. We are going to pound them into the dirt this year.. NOT WELCOME.. Just leave our team alone and let us real fans enjoy this ride solo for a year, then we will re-evaluate...

    And get the hell of my lawn 🙂🙂
