Awesome dude

Why do you put quotes around certain words? You aren't quoting me, I know that much......

I didn't create this thread

I didn't say anything about your opinion. I was making an observation.

Personally I think name-calling is pretty lame and uncreative, but it comes with the territory.

Whatever.... I just found it funny that you have over 1,000 posts on a Browns board and a large quantity of them are you arguing the same stuff over and over again.. I know that if I were in your shoes (meaning, if the Browns had six SB trophies and the Steelers had zero) I wouldn't acknowledge anything the other fan base said negatively about my team.

Nothing to argue Dude !! I am not arguing any point. Just raising the other side of some of the thought process here. And if you were my my shoes ? you have NO WAY of knowing that because it hasn't happened , so highly Speculative. As stated many times My friends invited me to come post here a few yrs ago. I have many Browns fans as Friends , Point is I been here for awhile , and Dont treat people crappy. So why are you concerned about me for having a HISTORY of posting on this board. Sorry brother it just sounds like whining to me.

FAR from the worst team ever. Proud and Rich History. Bad times have fallen upon them...and its an extended period of time. Exaggeration... Old school Steeler fans still Respect the Browns. We Remember when the Browns were no easy mark. And our Dads remember when the Browns OWNED us. Cleveland has much to be proud of...No not recently. But it cant be Bad forever. Call me whatever , but I still sweat both times we play you guys till the Final Gun. (Ok we have had a few games where the Sweat was nice and dry by the half...) Respect still Due !

I am merely a Realist... And The Browns are , or at least were a Pain in the Butt MANY Sundays in my life !! Memories of Bernie Kosar , Metcalf and many others have Haunted me on a Chunk of Sundays. And I am thankful I didnt have to live thru the 50`s and 60`s. ha ha ha....

You missed the "modern history" part. Not disrespecting your old history but it's very old.

You're right about the"modern history". But I'm still standing proud and tall of my team. That's why we are called Browns fans because we can take the good, the bad and the ugly. I'm sure your proud of your team. Not knocking on the steelers, but the love for the browns is a very special feeling that other fans and I share.

We all have... like.... war scars. Scars that last for generations and generations. When we ever get a championship, all that turmoil and fighting will be gone. We browns fans will be free at last. It's a weird feeling. It's a cleveland thing, you wouldn't understand it.

Well. if that is true at least they have a bandwagon to jump on. Being a Browns fan is like being in an abusive relationship. Being a Browns fan in "Pissburgh" must be like being in an abusive relationship in Iraq.

You got to be honest Stone, if that was your history you would be proud of it too. Come on, that is why Steeler fans don't want to discuss it and dismiss it as "old". "Show Dick some respect"

Please show me ONE just one game where there has been any sort of "presence" of brownie fans in any away stadium..Please give me any thing at all to substantiate that these"browns backers" even exist.

The Browns Backers are a large organization, but, like everything else. It has been surpassed. You do not see Browns Fans overtake other stadiums like Steeler Fans do. Heck, we over took your stadium one year. That would never happen in Heinz.

Browns fans whole argument especially on this site is that your team has to be one of the worst in the league to prove your fanship! According to all of them we are all fans because we flock like sheep to the "best" team. Oddly, most Steeler fans I know debunk this argument as they have been fans their whole lives.

Again, a few simple tests: A. Browns Backers are considered the largest organized fan club of any team in the world. If it has been surpassed it must have just been in the last few months....and by who? Fans of Manchester United maybe.

2. And yes, the true test of a fan base is not how you are doing when things are oh, so rosy, but how supportive they are when things are not so rosy. Give your team 10 consecutive lousy years....THAT is when their metal is tested.

3. I assume you are from Pittsburgh, so properly people from Peetown are and should be fans of their team all their lives.

But what you don't realize is that their are a lot of FRAKs living around here, and in other parts of the country (FrontRunnerAssKissers). Though your dedicated group of Pittsburgh area fans aren't going to drop their allegiance, the FRAKS will dump that team like they are having a bowel movement the minute things are going to go so rosy.

His whole argument is that your team has to be one of the worst in the league to prove your fanship. He seeks to pat himself on the back for being such a good fan to one of the worst teams in the league. He wants some acknowledgement from us that it is harder to be a Brownstain fan because of the acrid smell that comes with it.

So, you DON'T think it is any harder to be a fan of a losing team than to be a fan of a winning team?

In theory I guess that should be correct.

Perhaps it should be said more accurately that it is more frustrating being a fan of a losing team, not necessarily harder.

Or are you saying that one should NOT be proud of sticking with a losing team that you are a fan of? That one should abandon that team for one that is having more success. That seems to be what you imply.

Please tell me I am wrong about that.

@holmes10_ward_86 said:

But here is the thing the Steelers if they do have a couple of down years they never lose for long periods of time buddy . They pride themselves on winning and do it probably better then any other organization in the National Football League. You dont make the playoffs for 12 out of the last 17 seasons since 1992 by accident or some sort of fluke. They have done that by having good personnel combined with great ownership and stability with their coaching staff and players. One last thing you talk about having a few losing seasons so you can get good high draft picks. Well the Steelers picked 11th in the 2004 draft which I consider to be pretty high and got a guy named Big Gay Ben when the Browns passed him right up at pick 5 I believe for overrated piece of garbage Winslow. I wonder how that turned out?? I'm sure Ben looks at the Browns growing up in Ohio and where they sit today and thanks god everyday that the Browns were dumb enough to not pick him and pass him right up.

I think you are missing a point here. You seem to be saying "ain't it great" that we stick with our team during a few down years". Well, that is all fine, well, and good, but that is not the argument. No one is debating that the Steelers have had a good long string of success with a very few low points. (Though....I have done the research on this, during those low stretches in the 80s the Steelers would only get like 35-40 to attend their games at 59,000 capacity 3 rivers).

The test is how well would the fans support the team after a couple of down DECADES. You are probably too young to know about the 40 consecutive non-layoff seasons the Steelers had. Just imagine if that sort of thing were to be repeated here in the future.

Okay. I will give you respect where it's due. But listen, it's still a mutual rivalry. The rivalry's not dead, it's dormant. I respect the fact youse guys won a superbowl. However, since you are my rival, that is all the respect you are going to get. Steelers and Browns fans do not belong in the same sentence!
