The Saints aren't worst team name *cough cough* Washington *cough cough*

Plus I guess it is somewhat relevant. Doesn't NOLA have those saint symbols heavily associated with it?

What is a "Brown" anyway? In addition to being the worst team, they also get the worst team name.

Glad you asked that question.

It's like Saudi Arabia. You know, the House of Saud that runs Saudi Arabia. Brown is also a family name and the namesake of the Cleveland Browns, except the franchise in the AFC that is named Brown isn't run by the Brown family. Now, it was the Bengals and Ravens that were founded and/or coached by the Brown family. Confused? Well, maybe that's why the Cleveland Browns fucking stars are so crossed. But godamned Charlie Brown is what I think about here. You see, he's always missing the kick 'cause his holder isn't a good teammate. So that's also part of what's wrong with the current Browns, they pick the lousiest teammates for Chuck, so they suck.

Additionally, the AFC "Browns situation" is emblematic of what a lousy fucking job the idiots in the NYC front office do. Having these three teams (The Ravens - formerly the Paul Brown coached Cleveland AAFC Browns, The Bengals - 1966 AFL expansion team co-founded by Paul Brown & his son Mike ) & the new NFL Cleveland Browns) making up 75% of one division is brain dead stupid.

Letting the Colts go to Indy and not replacing them ASAP was also incredibly stupid. Shopping NFL franchises around that the fans love and support to the highest bidder for a new stadium is goddamned greedy and absolutely just fucking evil. So look to the NYC NFL office for the culprits. That's where the bottom line causes of the mess with "the Browns" was created and managed. And I haven't even touched on fucking Goodell's stupid suspension decisions and the league's "no fun" rules.

And I haven't even touched on fucking Goodell's stupid suspension decisions and the league's "no fun" rules.


The "new Browns" also seem to have a fondness of drafting/signing/employing people named "Brown".

Courtney Brown (2000)
Jarrett Brown (2011)
Bobby Brown (2001)
James Brown (2012)
Another James Brown (2000)
Lomas Brown (1999)
Sheldon Brown (2010)
Ralph Brown (2006)
Orlando Brown (1999) zebra Jeff Triplette ended his career by throwing a flag in his eye.
Titus Brown (2010)

If you include the "old Browns", the surname Brown is the most common surname for Browns players.

And let's not forget current executive Sashi Brown. I did leave out players and coaches of the "old Browns" (Baltimore Ravens since 1996) like Paul and Jim Brown. As Jerzy has noted, the current Cleveland Browns are the only one of the three franchises he mentioned that is named after Paul Brown, and also the only one that Paul Brown had nothing to do with (no matter how many times the NFL wants to uphold the "old Browns" = "new Browns" fantasy.

If you include the "old Browns", the surname Brown is the most common surname for Browns players.

And let's not forget current executive Sashi Brown. I did leave out players and coaches of the "old Browns" (Baltimore Ravens since 1996) like Paul and Jim Brown. As Jerzy has noted, the current Cleveland Browns are the only one of the three franchises he mentioned that is named after Paul Brown, and also the only one that Paul Brown had nothing to do with (no matter how many times the NFL wants to uphold the "old Browns" = "new Browns" fantasy.

I'm just glad they didn't get Antonio Brown.

If they did, wouldn't Antonio be worse off in Cleveland because Cleveland makes many of their drafted players shitty.
In solidarity with Ukraine, I will be censoring the letters Z and V from my signature. This is -ery much so a big change, but it should be a -ery positi-e one. -olodymyr -elensky and A-o- continue to fight for Ukraine while the Russians are still trying to e-entually make their way to Kharki-, -apori-h-hia, and Kry-yi Rih, but that will take time as they are concentrated in areas like Bakhmut, -uledar, and other areas in Donetsk. We will see Shakhtar play in the Europa League but Dynamo Kyi- already got eliminated. Shakhtar managed to play well against Florentino Pere-'s Real Madrid who feature superstars like -inicius, Ben-ema, Car-ajal, and -al-erde. Some prominent Ukrainian players that got big transfers elsewhere include Oleksander -inchenko, Illya -abarnyi, and Mykhailo Mudryk.

But that would still deprive us of our star player.

Glad you asked that question.

It's like Saudi Arabia. You know, the House of Saud that runs Saudi Arabia. Brown is also a family name and the namesake of the Cleveland Browns, except the franchise in the AFC that is named Brown isn't run by the Brown family. Now, it was the Bengals and Ravens that were founded and/or coached by the Brown family. Confused? Well, maybe that's why the Cleveland Browns fucking stars are so crossed. But godamned Charlie Brown is what I think about here. You see, he's always missing the kick 'cause his holder isn't a good teammate. So that's also part of what's wrong with the current Browns, they pick the lousiest teammates for Chuck, so they suck.

Additionally, the AFC "Browns situation" is emblematic of what a lousy fucking job the idiots in the NYC front office do. Having these three teams (The Ravens - formerly the Paul Brown coached Cleveland AAFC Browns, The Bengals - 1966 AFL expansion team co-founded by Paul Brown & his son Mike ) & the new NFL Cleveland Browns) making up 75% of one division is brain dead stupid.

Letting the Colts go to Indy and not replacing them ASAP was also incredibly stupid. Shopping NFL franchises around that the fans love and support to the highest bidder for a new stadium is goddamned greedy and absolutely just fucking evil. So look to the NYC NFL office for the culprits. That's where the bottom line causes of the mess with "the Browns" was created and managed. And I haven't even touched on fucking Goodell's stupid suspension decisions and the league's "no fun" rules.

Is there an obligation to draft guys with the last name of Brown for the Cleveland Browns.
