    I think you missed the entire point, and I am trying to help you.

    Now 1st, I'll give you the benefit of doubt that you are who you say you are. And as such, you shouldn't be spoken to like a few have. Of course I do have a different view of kids that aren't mine as I have coached a long time. But, it also does seem a bit strange that you happen to do this on a week that the Browns and Ravens play. So that is why you are getting some push back from others.

    Now on to what you have said, you will certainly get some negative feedback for saying it is a completely different organization than the one that moved to Baltimore. That is just completely inaccurate. Everything STAYED in Cleveland aside from the current individuals in the organization. 

    I used Jacksonville for a specific reason. They couldn't be considered a rebranding (as you described) because their 1 good year was an outlier. 

    And I have no idea how you can use what you said in this post as evidence. In 2018 (if you are using Bakers 1st year) they did not have a new coaching staff. If you are meaning after the 2018 season when there was hope that Browns had turned a corner, they certainly didn't have a reputable staff, as they had 2 head coaches last year, and NEITHER are on the staff.

    Now I am certainly not in your class or your teacher, but your idea/definition of a rebrand is so off that I don't think that anyone will be able to follow including your teacher the way you are describing it. But let's use a few different things instead of football to show how this is coming off to an outsider. Lets use Basketball 1st. So in your description of a rebrand, the Golden State Warriors have went through 3 rebrand in the last 10 years. Pre Durant, With Durant, Post Durant. Or lets use a company, say Mountain Dew, when they add/remove a new flavor or change a top executive is that rebranding? 

    Thank you again for the constructive criticism, and trust me I wouldn't lie about being a high schooler because of all things that puts a larger target on my back. As I mentioned in my first response in this thread, my definition of a rebrand is more of a mentality change surrounding the organization. I didn't pull this definition out of my ass. I have been researching marketing in sports for the past three months and the identity of a team is what people tend to consider most when choosing their fandom. In my survey it mentions only the hiring of Stefanski as part of the rebrand, not the Freddie Kitchens disaster. With my definition of a rebrand, the Warriors wouldn't be considered a rebranded team over the past ten years because their identity as being a title contender hasn't changed (besides last year, but that was because of uncontrollable injuries). Mountain Dew adding a new flavor would also not be considered a rebrand with my definition because the company has the same identity in the public's eyes.

    In no particular order, on this thread, we have seen: Two business consultants each w >15 years of experience, an elected Ohio judge, 5 engineers, an experienced football coach, and a gumby. 

    This isn't the Ravens forum for the insane traveling carnival magicians and homeless yoga instructors - people are actually professionals here.

    Actually I am not elected in my position. I am appointed. Assuming you were talking about me when you said Ohio judge.

    Some respect, please. I hope you're not calling me Engineer, I'm an Architect. 

    Gumby could be considered Engineer of Words.

    This thread might be the biggest "Who gives a fuck?" thread I've seen on here in quite a while. 

    Well done to everyone involved.

    Now I am trying to rack my brain to figure out who is who in this lol

    So here is a good Gipper trivia. Identity the 10 people Unsympathetic is speaking of 

    I think I can name 4. 

    Gipper- Judge

    Nero- Engineer (I think I remember)

    Gumby- the tiny green bender

    Gunz41- the dumb jock football coach

    P.S.- The "presumed" high schooler that MUST know more than the aforementioned 10, apereg11. 

    And by the way, I searched the other teams message boards that I could find, and the ONLY mention I found on rebranding was asked by a college professor I believe it was. Haha

    We like Architects.    Brian Sipe became an architect after football.   Now, talk about a rebranding. 

    By the way.....the  Makeup and Director of Special Effects for The Mandalorian  is named Brian Sipe:

    https://www.briansipe.com/the-madalorian

    and more:

     Brian Sipe is known for his work on Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (2017), Captain Marvel(2019) and X-Men: Days of Future Past (2014).

    I wonder if that could be his kid. 

    Edit:  I have checked an can find nothing that says the two are related.
