Huge Notre Dame fan here. My NFL team is the Giants, but they are almost unrootable lately. I can't stand The Eli/Plaxico soap opera. Is it against 'fan rules' if I become a Browns fan. Also are there any rules abot being a Cleveland fan that I should know.

As long as you hate pretty much every other AFC North team you should be fine but really all that matter is that you just despise the Steelers then we can give leeway on the other teams in the division.

Just get used to dissapointment. I urge you to reconsider your decision. God I wish my Dad didnt make me a Browns fan growing up. Its too late now, Im stuck. All I can do is try to help others from falling into the trap.

On second thought. Welcome aboard, we can use all the support we can get.

I must add that in order to be a Browns fan you have to love the Browns whether they win or lose.

And you said I was pessimistic?

LOL-- Wanting to be a Browns fan ??

You have got to be kidding me... Run, run as far away as you possibly can from this organization...

Being a Cleveland fan is like asking: Do I want to be shot ? Set on fire ? or be thrown into the lake with hundred pound weights strapped to my legs...

Yea, I realized how negative it sounded. I was just trying to help my fellow man out by making sure he knew what he was getting himself into. The Browns future is honestly looking up, but I learned loooong ago not to ever get my hopes up with the Browns because more times then not they let you down.

I don't see any reason why you can't be a Browns fan. If you want to be one, welcome aboard. I must say though if you think the Giants are hard to watch, you don't know what you're getting yourself into here. If it's easy for you to dislike the Ravens, Bengals and Steelers. Then you'll fit right in though.

I think people seem to forget (because of the abysmal performance of the Browns II) that this is actually a very proud organization. Yeah, we've made some errors of late and therefore have had a bunch of mulligans but we love this team passionately. I live in Cincinnati and have friends that are Bengirls fans, I bet I could call the majority of them and they couldn't tell you more than one Bengirls pick. Thats just how they are. Browns fans are not really like that. I got calls from 2 different women (one from Youngtown living in Cleveland and one from Dayton living here) each of which wanted to talk in depth about the Browns picks.

There is no prouder fan base and eventually, the organization will catch back up with us.

Count me in. I want on.

Went come back. Why are you leaving with the wagon?

Can I possibly jump on the band wagon to? lol

I'm a huge Chargers fan, but The Browns drafting Quinn (who i loved watching in ND) has swayed me a bit to the dark side.

I've jumped on the Cleveland bandwagon also once they drafted Quinn. That and the fact that I dispise the Steelers made it pretty easy for me. Please kick the Steelers ass this season so I can walk around Pittsburgh looking at people wanting to jump off a bridge.

I'll always be a Bears fan but the Browns have become my 1B team, ever since you guys got Quinn.
