Not sure if this latest "fraud" allegation has been discussed here in a thread, if so I apologize, but I can't really understand what has become of this once-proud franchise since Modell sucker punched the City and moved to Baltimore. I have more Steeler fans than I care to mention as friends, some of them my closest friends, and even they have changed their tune over the past decade. It used to be a good natured and sometimes heated rivalry but they have begun to shake their heads. How is it that some franchises just can't seem to find the formula for success that the Steelers should Patent??

    Indeed, my wife couldn't believe how empty Jacobs Field was when she watched her BoSox play there on her computer. This is in very stark contrast to the Indians having a sellout streak throughout the second half of the 90s, and now the Red Sox' sellout streak just ended too. Guess the pink hats are jumping off the bandwagon? image

    PS: My wife is most definitely a true full blooded Red Sox fan, not only born and raised in greater Boston (Malden) but she's followed the Red Sox since the days of Yaz. And as I've told this story before, she was at Fenway in 1979 when Yaz got his 3000th hit and clinched his HOF plaque...and card #1 of my birth year set (1980) happens to commemorate it. image So NOBODY calls HER a pink hat. image

    Assuming you mean the Pilot/Flying Hook TS raid, other then the owner being the same I see no connection to the amazing level of suck that the "browns" are able to reach every year.

    I kept with the theme of not capitalizing browns as they really are not worthyimage

    having been born and raised in the Cleveland area it really hurts to see all the cleveland teams in the dumper.........I honestly was looking for any good news and told my wife this morning it might even be a good idea to bring Mike Brown back to the Cavs...how much worse can it get....Kyrie...please let's get a point guard who plays, not on DL half the time...
