BrownsfaninPa 54 Report post Posted February 23 After so so many years of lousy seasons, never having any steady wins , our coaches come and go, players with high expectations end up being a flop. And now this team is making moves and winning games. Keep this team going in the same direction with dedicated players who want to be on a winning team , and not in it for themselves. Having the very positive season we had in 2020, and embarrassing the Steelers at their house in a playoff game says a lot. Bring back those glory days of Bernie Kosar, Kevin Mack, Ernest Byner etc. Today it's Baker Mayfield, Kareem Hunt, & Nick Chubbs, and of course the ever loving dawgpound. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Erie Dawg 73 Report post Posted February 23 I don't see why not. The Steelers are going to be battling it out with the Bengals for last place this year. With some overdue luck and a solid draft this year The browns could be set up for the long term. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrownsfaninPa 54 Report post Posted February 23 Who remembers the WLAF games in the early 90's. I was a fan of the San Antonio Riders. I chose that team only because of the team colors. When the WLAF was formed, and the teams were announced, the S.A. Riders team colors were Brown, Gold, & White, with a hint of orange. The team only lasted 2 seasons. But those team colors were my favorite. I though of a fanasty team using those colors and came up with a team name THE CRAWLERS. Helmet was gold with two brown stripes and a white stripe in the middle. The helmet logo was a spider web that stretched the entire side of the helmet. with a brown facemask. Home jerseys were brown with white numbers trimmed in orange, away jerseys were white with brown numbers trimmed in orange, Pants were gold with 2 brown stripes, and one white stripe. The brown jerseys had white and gold stripes on the sleeve, and the away jersey had brown and gold stripes on the sleeve. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Comeonman 332 Report post Posted February 23 Can’t ever count out PIT and BAL. they’ve had steady organization and leadership for a very long time and it looks like it’s just now starting to happen for us. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BrownsfaninPa 54 Report post Posted February 23 Hi Gip, yes those were the days. I mailed 2 Jason Garrett cards to him when he was HC at the Cowboys, and he signed them for me. I have a collection of S.A. Riders cards along with all the other WLAF teams. Brown, gold and white look so good . Would love to find a RIDERS mini-helmet.

BrownsfaninPa 54 Report post Posted February 23 Here is a little trivia for all of you. From 1948 to 1955, this Cleveland Browns player is still alive today at 96 yrs old. Dub Jones. He has a son who also played in the NFL, That was Bert Jones, Baltimore Colts . Bert is now 69 yrs old. I'm not sure but I believe Dub may be the oldest living Browns player today. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I haven't paid attention to an alternate league since the mid-80's USFL including the San Antonio Gunslingers with Nuiheisal and the Jim Kelly lead Houston Gamblers.
