Browns

I am a very depressed season ticket holder. In the past I have often sold games or given away tickets to games I could not attend, nowadays I can’t give tickets away.

In this 16th year of being a season ticket holder I see that being a die hard fan has become very difficult, very few friends post on facebook post regarding the game, (during the game), or later tell me that they turn the game off early to do… yard work, etc.

After today’s game, the penalty that gave the Cardinals a first down instead of forcing them to punt with about 11 minutes in the game, the exodus from the stadium was heart wrenching. Beforehand the crowd was least attentive and on a few occasions that normally the fans scream and pound in anticipation of stopping the opponent or creating a game changing moment the stadium was silent, as if empty.

SO I offer to pay someone to attend the Ravens game – 2 seats 13 rows from the field. All I ask is a reason not to give up believing. Along with a promise that no matter how ugly the game goes you will stay to the last second ticks off the clock. Maybe we can be facebook friends and you can post pictures and updates.

Email me, make me a believer and I will send you the tickets and a dollar.

The correct date of the game is Monday night, November 30th

Things have gotten so bad lately for us Browns fans that this dude is actually willing to pay you to go to the upcoming Browns-Ravens Monday Night Football game later this month.

Now when I first saw this story I thought for sure it was going to be one of those attention seeking publicity stunts that people pull in hopes of news stations or blogs picking up their story. Like a “Fire Jimmy Haslam Petition” or something along those lines… But then I read the Craigslist post and it’s the saddest thing I’ve ever seen. He’s not trying to “stick it to the Browns” and stir up some negative publicity by posting this. He genuinely just wants someone to go to a Browns game, sit alongside the fellow diehards, and stick around to the final whistle. He’s begging someone to believe in a franchise that hasn’t had a winning season since 2007.

That’s it. That’s all he wants. For someone to attend his team’s nationally televised Monday Night Football game and try to enjoy themselves. And he’s paying for them to do it. Just a guy beaten down by losing season after losing season.

This is what Cleveland Browns football has become and it’s sad. This story will probably cycle around the national publications and everyone will be like “Ha, LOL Browns” but it’s not even funny anymore. This franchise is turning away its most loyal fans by the decisions it continues to make. This is also why we drink. A lot.

PS- This is also one of the reasons I always tell my friends NOT to buy Browns season tickets. By the time November and December roll around you can get decent tickets on StubHub for like $10-$20 on gameday.

PPS- If Johnny somehow shocks the world and pulls off a win tonight and next game vs. the Steelers, this dude better pull this Craigslist offer off of the table. FirstEnergy Stadium would be ELECTRIC for a Monday Night football game with Manziel starting and the Browns riding a winning streak.

Congratulations Browns Fans, You’re The 4th Drunkest Fanbase In The NFL

While some NFL fans are known to be rowdier than others, no one ever took it upon themselves to quantify the levels of intoxication around the league…until now. We reached out to the folks atBACtrack — who make personal smartphone-linked breathalyzers — to investigate. They crunched the data over the first seven weeks of the 2015 NFL season (Sundays only) and the results are in.

Bills
Lions
Eagles
Browns
Cardinals

No surprise that these teams make up the top 5. When a team never wins a Super Bowl, it inevitably means their fans are going to booze more. Can’t win rings, can’t be sober. Who cares if the product on the field is shitty when you can drink 15 beers and still have an OK time? Browns fans know this line of reasoning all too well.

After yesterday’s Ray Farmer press conference I wouldn’t be surprised if the Browns vault into the top 3 pretty soon. What a debacle that was. You needed a stiff drink just to handle the words that your ears were hearing. If there was a ranking of “drunkest fans during owner and GM press conferences,” I think the Browns would be in first.

I’m almost positive this guy was the deciding factor on if the Browns would be in 5th or 4th place.

Also, what’s up with Cincinnati? .016? WTF? Do you guys even NFL, bro? Can’t you walk like 15 feet into Kentucky and buy the 190 proof Everclear? Who knew Cincy was filled with a bunch of Debbie Downers?

Never change, Cleveland

Dwayne Bowe’s not even bothering to fake it anymore

Alright. Enough is enough man. It’s been fun (using that term loosely) ripping the Browns for making such an awful decision to bring this guy in and it’s been fun (as a goose) making all of the “snake it till you make it” jokes about Bowe himself. But the camel’s back should be as broken as the Browns rush defense after this shit he pulled yesterday during the National Anthem. Now he’s not only pickpocketing the franchise to the tune of NINE MILLION DOLLARS but he’s gonna be a douchebag while he’s doing it? No thanks man.

Pettine needs to show some stones here sometime soon. Guessing he won’t just call him into this office and cut him himself, but there’s nothing stopping him from being honest about how worthless this guy has been the next time’s he’s asked about him in front of a microphone. You’re getting $3 million dollars per target this year. Everyone knows you’re a washed up waste of money. Just shut up and collect your checks. Instead, he gives us quotes like these:

“These guys love me, they know I’m a great teammate and a great player. It’s time to make plays and I’ve been doing it my whole career so that’s not going to change.”

“I fought my way so many years in Kansas City so, but it doesn’t matter. Once I hit the field running, you guys will love it.”

“We practice every day so the timing, I have really good timing with all the quarterbacks, actually. It’s just doing it in the game is what everybody is waiting on. Once that happens, the questions will be minimized.”

And then stands 15 yards away from the guys who allegedly love him during the National Anthem of a Salute to Service game. Class act, that Dwayne Bowe.

From a football standpoint though, what in the hell is this guy still doing on your roster? Don’t tell me the $9 million. That money is toast either way, whether he’s making a scene during pregame or he’s sitting on his couch. You signed him to be a big target for your quarterbacks in the passing game, yet on first and goal from the 9 in the first quarter yesterday, he was nowhere to be found. Same thing on second down. And third. Maybe Pettine forgot he was even active, since he’s been a healthy scratch the previous three weeks. The only reason he even saw the field later in the game was because Marlon Moore, a special teamer who made the team by the skin of his teeth, lost his shoe on a play and needed a sub.

So, to recap: you get absolutely no production on the field from this guy, and he’s a delusional sideshow off it. Insert Terrelle Pryor/Josh Lenz sentence here. He’s been a waste of a roster spot all year. Might as well bring in someone who actually wants to be here.
