<p>
Well, it's started already- a bunch of the games aren't sold out this year, and assuming the Browns post say a 2-14 record (I'm holding out hope they can beat either KC or the Lions) it will be even worse next year. </p>

<p>
Yeah, I waste 3 hours every Sunday afternoon getting upset how bad my team is playing and wondering why I'm not doing something productive outside like raking leaves. </p>]]></description><link>https://brownsboard.com/post/131258</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://brownsboard.com/post/131258</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[hoorta]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 26 Oct 2009 05:11:14 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to I just want to enjoy a game on Mon, 26 Oct 2009 04:36:21 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p>Rebuilding?!?!  <img src="https://brownsboard.com/assets/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji/emoji/twemoji/1f633.png?v=184936d267e" class="not-responsive emoji emoji-twemoji emoji--flushed" title=":flushed:" alt="😳" /></p>]]></description><link>https://brownsboard.com/post/131250</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://brownsboard.com/post/131250</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[bonedawg]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 26 Oct 2009 04:36:21 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to I just want to enjoy a game on Mon, 26 Oct 2009 02:44:00 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p>Ive tried every way in hell to no longer be a browns fan and the closest i can get is not supporting the pos financially and telling myself i wont watch the weekly blowout...but i always do...it sucks being a browns fan and watching this idiot ball boy coach screw my team up worse than ever under lerners sorry direction...i wont be buying the sunday ticket next year for real and i damn sure aint buyin no jersies ,caps plaques,lamps,posters or anything else related to this faggot owners club..</p>]]></description><link>https://brownsboard.com/post/131210</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://brownsboard.com/post/131210</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[Gips]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 26 Oct 2009 02:44:00 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to I just want to enjoy a game on Mon, 26 Oct 2009 02:40:42 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p>I had a great Sunday...woke up late after a night of partying hard (today's my birthday), got mildly excited when i realized it was 1:01 and the game might have started (I've separated my emotions much like RifferX), listened in on Field Pass (at college, no ride to sports bar this week), and was well on my way to a deep, restorative nap, starting sometime around halftime and lasting until around 4:30.

I hear ya bud!  More like a kick in the adam's apple.  I'm not sure if it's better to go without football or to pretend we have an NFL team the Lerner family continues to cash in on.</p>

<p>
We've played like an expansion team for 9 of the 11 years:</p>
<p>
1999 - 2 wins</p>
<p>
2000 - 3 wins</p>
<p>
2001 - 7 wins (but 2 losses were in OT)</p>
<p>
2002 - 9 wins (only playoff season)</p>
<p>
2003 - 5 wins?</p>
<p>
2004 - 4 wins?</p>
<p>
2005 - 6 wins</p>
<p>
2006 - 4 wins</p>
<p>
2007 - 10 wins</p>
<p>
2008 - 4 wins</p>
<p>
2009 - who cares?????</p>
