A Fan since birth (maybe before)

I grew up a Cleveland Browns fan. The first game I remember watching with interest was the 1972 playoff game against the Miami Dolphins. Yes, THOSE Dolphins...the undefeated Super Bowl Champions. We SHOULD have actually WON that game and ruined their perfect season. I remember the outrage and the empty feeling when the clock ticked to zero and our season was over. If only Sherk had stayed healthy. In CLEVELAND, we have been dealing with career destroying staph infections since the 70's I was just a little kid, but those memories have never faded. Some teams use the term "snake-bitten" to describe themselves...if you look up the word in Websters, it has an illustration of "the fumble" and the caption "REALLY snake-bitten". The trials and tribulations of being a Browns fan are infinite. This blog will not be unique. EVERY team has die-hard fans with a lifelong perspective. It will however, be a labor of love and hopefully entertaining to fellow Dawg-pound alumni. See you tomorrow...GO BROWNS!!!
