Really? Comparing the Cleveland Steamers to the Panthers is really insulting. Trust me, my daughter moved from Charlotte to Cleveland for her fiance but I guarantee that she would never be a Browns fan. He is a Browns fan but is glad he can root with her for a real team. He even went to San Fran with her for the super bowl.

This topic is hilarious considering we are coming off 3 straight division titles and a super bowl appearance.  

If the Browns had a coach and general manager that had done that they'd be worshiped in Cleveland.  Remember this was a fanbase that was fired up about Derek Anderson at one point.

The Browns are a rough spot for a really good city. I had always made jokes about Cleveland until I had the chance to visit there a couple of years ago. Beautiful place, nice people, so many cool things to see and do.

But the Browns... man, the NFL owners need to get together and force a change in ownership of that franchise. In a league reformed around the idea of competitive parity (over the long haul), the Browns have been an abject failure. Bad ownership, bad management and horrible coaching. Their scouts are terrible and the talent they bring there rarely seems to have any real desire to be there. 

We're on the upswing as a whole and have been up and down since our inception. We've had playoff years, two Superb Owl appearances, some HoF -to-be players developed here and have generally been a bright spot among expansion teams. If you take the Seahawks out of the discussion, we're the most successful expansion team since the AFL/NFL merger.

Atlanta? New Orleans? Tampa Bay? Houston? Jacksonville? Cleveland? Our history is better than Tennessee (Houston Oilers), Cincinnati, Philadelphia, the Cardinals (St. Louis/Arizona/Chicago combined), Detroit, and San Diego. And really, would you swap histories with teams like Minnesota, Buffalo, the Jets, and Kansas City? Heck, the Rams have a Superb Owl victory and we've still got a better resume than they do.

Look, once upon a time, the Patriots were the suck team of the NFL. And to bring this back around full circle, and then one day they hired this guy that got fired by the Browns. 

And that, right there, tells you why it will always be worse to be a Browns fan.

-franchise leaves town and then wins two super bowls over the next 15-ish years

-fire head coach in pretty shitty fashion (belichick was assured he'd be the head coach in baltimore but was fired like a week later) only for him to go to new england and put together a career that might result in his name being next to vince lombardi's on the super bowl trophy

-get your franchise back only for it to be the laughing stock of the league for its entire existence

I swear some of you newer fans are so spoiled it's ridiculous. "WAAAAAAH we were bad one year after going to the playoffs 3 in a row and going to the super bowl, fire the GM, the head coach and Jerry Richardson they suck now because we didn't win this year, WAAAAAH"

Panther fans are the spoiled little rich girls who got a Toyota Camry for their sweet 16 then bitched about it not being the Sporty and cute Camaro that they really really wanted.

Browns fans are the starving children in Africa that don't have electricity and mine diamonds in slavery just to survive.

There is no comparison to who has it worse. Even implying that our fans have it worse is an insult to all Browns fans and starving African Children everywhere.

      He's not wrong though. You talk like a politician on here. Leaving yourself just enough wiggle room to say you never fully counted Bryce out if you need to....But we can all see it. Just say you think he is a bust outright and you will have to type a lot less. Obfuscating your opinion behind QB3 competitions etc....

      Experience with Electric Vehicles?

      By d-dave · Posted

      Most EVs are in the 90+ e-MPG meaning some measurement house somewhere compares the EV to a similar ICE model and works out how much is costs to charge (on average) versus fill up as a point of comparison. Talking long term, in the hundreds of thousands of miles?  No clue.  Some early signs are that EV batteries maintain 80% charge over 400k miles.  So there's that.   The challenge and charm of an ICE vehicle is being able to park it under a tree, get your jack stands out and tinker with your engine.  There's just not that same level of complexity in an EV.  I saw someone estimate there are 200 or so moving parts in an EV, and 2000 in an ICE vehicle.  I'm not a part counter so I can't really speak to that. I think that the EV is more the future than any type of combustion engine.  Those will still be around in specific purposes, but for most people - an EV will be the superior option in terms of efficiency.  I say that as someone who loves stupid horsepower numbers out of turbo 4 bangers and inline 6s...  I am one of those tinkers when I can be. A bigger issue for EVs is going to be the ownership versus lease.  Right now, there are INSANE leases on EVs, which is great, but what do you have at the end of that lease?  Nada, maybe some equity if you're lucky.  Where as I'm almost done paying for my car, and plan to keep it until the wheels fall off (or my son wrecks it when he starts to drive).  Will EV makers do the smartphone thing and build in planned obsolesce?  Stop updating software?  I love the tech in EVs, and I think getting more cars and trucks off the road is a good thing.  But I am still just a little concerned.  Capitalism has gotten far too extractive.
