here come the cleveland browns!

The Cleveland Browns are in the post-season playoffs. 

This is HUGE, really huge. Every year at the beginning of football season, Browns fans truly believe that this will be the year to go to the Super Bowl and every year their hopes are dashed.

This season the Browns have had injury after injury after injury with new players coming in to fill the spots of the wounded football warriors. And yet, this piece-by-piece team that the Cleveland Browns have put together has shown that you don't need to pay $200 million for an elite quarterback to get to the playoffs. He was one of the first players injured this season and in his place is a 38-year old veteran QB. It's hard work and heart that will get you there. Go Browns!

Our Christmas decorations have been put away and now the Browns playoff shrine has taken over. No more silver and gold; it's orange and brown.





T has been a Browns fan all of his life. This afternoon he made a video complete with a pep talk to send to his fellow Browns fans.

"Fellow Browns fans:

After today, we hopefully embark on a special January journey led by Joe Flacco, who has found the fountain of Youth! Sometimes fate can be a powerful positive result. When Chubb went down, our hearts sank. When the word was Watson was done right after he led a big win over the hated Ravens, we took another blow to the midsection. The IR list has been long for us, too. We would never have imagined how December would play out!

Back in 1964 we can fondly but faintly the Browns NFL Championship. Then in the late 60s we lost in the NFL FINALS to the Colts and Vikings in back to back seasons. Following was Bernie (Kosar) and company in the mid to late 80s losing three AFC TITLE  games. ALL one step away from the Super Bowl. Hell, three seasons ago Baker (Mayfield) was only one bad missed ref call from getting us back to that doorstep! All this said, I am dubbing this a special January and putting up a Browns "collage corner" to get us to an AFC Title this time!

Go Browns!!"
