Hope they don't mess much with the best uniforms in sports.



That middle logo is the best in the league - why not use that?

Cardinals hold onto Larry Fitzgerald for another 2 years.

With Arians as coach, hopefully we can make a run to the SB.

No kidding, it is like every decision they make is 100% wrong. The George Costanza theory should apply to this team.

Is this where you tell eveyone that Otto Graham (who no one saw play) is the greatest player in NFL history?

To be fair, I really like Cleveland, they are probably my second favourite team, I just can't believe how often they screw up.

Cleveland has to be close to a sports title somewhere. Cavs are solid, Indians look really strong, but the Browns, well, will always be the Browns. Almost certainly will be the last franchise in the NFL to win a Super Bowl (or at least not have Art Modell steal it first).

It's been depressing the last few seasons watching Fitzgerald's talent wasted because there is no QB who can make big plays to him. Hopefully they address this issue... then maybe you can talk about a SB run.

Many of you probably never saw Staubach or Bradshaw play live.

Bobby Orr?

Sounds like they are mulling over to move up in the draft for Mariotta. Again -

New logo is no big deal (more orange):

Enough Browns talk for now - back to regular NFL business . . .

Logo change pretty much sums up the Browns: promises of change and new eras, mostly the same old crap.

From the link:

Quote:
Our updated helmet logo is reflective of today's modern Cleveland - the design honors the past while evolving into the future. The iconic brown and white stripes stand tall over the orange helmet - a new orange color that matches the passion of the Dawg Pound. The new brown facemask represents the strength and toughness of Cleveland.
Maybe it's just a pet peeve of mine, but is there a reason why the "updated helmet logo" still uses a facemask that hasn't been worn in over 20 years? And I'm guessing only Tom Brady still wears the old "VSR" style of Riddell helmet?

You still see it all the time on logos; not sure if Riddell is hoarding the copyright on their new designs but if you're going to make it your actual team logo I would think an update is due.
