By Brad VanFossan   The Browns play football like the Italians investigate murders.  And I'm 1/4 Italian so I can say that!  If the Browns were playing on Sunday Night Football, I would rather watch Steve Ward attempt to turn train-wreck,...

By Brad VanFossan   This can't be our beloved Cleveland Indians can it?  And I use the term beloved loosely, more like love in the way that I loved tearing part of my bicep, and the way I love getting bondings at the dentist.  Can you ...

By Brad VanFossan As much as it pains me to say this being a Browns fan, the Steelers are going to win their seventh freaking Super Bowl, out of eight I might add! I might not even watch because I'm about 99% sure of this outcome. I don't mean to upset...

By Brad VanFossan I have been saying to my friends and co-workers that three straight losses to end the season would seal Eric Mangini's fate. Well, I don't even need to wait for the losses to Baltimore and Pittsburgh to determine that the once former...

By Brad VanFossan   If only they could leave Jake Delhomme there.  I wonder if any Browns players will hug Lebron while they're down there?  It seems to be a new Cleveland tradition.  I haven't decided if I'm going to watch this game...

By Brad VanFossan   The Browns offense today had the legitamacy of Bristol Palin's call in votes.  In other words, it was a joke.  How do you win a game after having six turnovers?  Better yet, how do you lose a game after forcing...
