Unfortunately, we are the better looking friend. Hope that changes soon.
We are a good friend. Always there when they need us. Cheer them on in good times, critique them in bad. Loan them money when they need it. Never hit on their sister (Bengals). When they leave us, we find a new friend and call them our old friends name and talk about the great times we had back in the day even though they weren't really even there.
I think we need psychological help. |

I guess Run William Run and the playoffs never happened? And the season of dreams wasn't highlighted once.
The only positive highlight they showed was Peyton Hillis _________________

Rumor has it that he mussed up Mangini's hair the way the Cowboys did to Jimmy Johnson at the end of the Super Bowl.
Seriously though....
Being almost 50 (and having been alive the last time they won it all {OK...I was a year old})...I remember when things were "good." Yes, bad luck befell us at bad times (won't rehash)....but we were a team that was pretty consistently a pretty good team.
That certainly hasn't been the case over the last 13 seasons.
The way I took this video is that it is sort of a catharsis....a cleansing....something that 50 year old guys end up knowing all too much about. I think that this was an opportunity for us to "purge" ourselves of the "Lerner era" and begin anew with Mr. Haslem.
I'm pretty darned excited about where the team is now, and can't wait to see the way things go next. _________________

No but I'd love to know.
I bet Mangini just ran him out of town and they needed to have cause to fire him, so they made something up.
I'm not sure exactly. _________________

I have to agree with Bucketheadsdad. Since I'm old enough to remember the good times, this video just makes things feel as if the time has come to just finally move on and start winning.

I see the browns kinda as a big boobed bartender, now you go to happy hour week in and week out hoping that this will be the week that she gives you her number, as the night goes on you have your up times when she is paying attention to just you and you feel ontop of the world, and then you have your times when no matter what she ignore you and the creepy old bartender gets you all your drinks. All the meanwhile your just hoping that she will do enough shots with you so that after last call she wills me some bad decisions with you, when in reality all that ever happens is at the end of the night is your left holding a 70 dollar bar tab your near blackout and on the walk home your constantly complaining to your friends about her.

Seeing some of that older footage was pretty cool.
But I think that last bit from Jimmy Haslam sums it up:

I don't know how accurate that is though, they probably counted them right before going to sleep. |
