The truth

Here's what it comes down to. For the majority of my football-loving life, I've been a Cleveland Browns fan. The sad truth is that I don't even care anymore.
I used to get mad at people who I'd deem fair-weather fans because I couldn't accept people not giving their time to a crappy team and then reaping the benefits when the team finally does succeed. The days of that are over, and here's why.

I don't care about the Cleveland Browns right now. I know that's easy to say because it's the off-season, but the point remains the same. Look at the facts: they've made the playoffs once since their return in 1999, and the 10-6 fruitless season of 2007 proved to be other winning season since the re-inception of the team.

The Browns are a product. If there's one universal fact about the sporting world, it's that these teams - and leagues - are businesses. The product which the Cleveland Browns are putting out is, let's face it, a really shitty product. When you don't score a touchdown for a month and get shut out by one of the other perennial losers, your product is terrible. Let's not overlook the fact that this product comes complete with one hour of commercials in your three hours of television: especially because the Browns had a habit of going 3-and-out roughly 8 times a game so there was about a minute and a half of football between 3-minute commercial sets.
THAT IS A TERRIBLE PRODUCT.
One more glance at the comedy of errors that the Browns have become shows that Sports Illustrated's senior writer Peter King (who is a retard) picked Cleveland as his sleeper pick for this past NFL season: the corner of the front-page of the September 8th issue of SI read "Keep an eye on the Cleveland Browns, Here's why, by Peter King." A hopeful article followed; with details of how the Browns were hoping to move into the playoff-contender stage after being so close the previous season.
King forgot something: the team sucks.
They have sucked for quite some time.
They will continue to suck.
And if they don't continue to suck, you can bet your ass that I'll jump back into being a fan.
And if you even try to get mad at me for that, think of it from a business sense: I'm investing my worthy-time in other places until they show me they're not an organization full of ass-clowns.

Makes you wonder how they can inspire such ridiculous emotions.
PS, kudos to the Steelers. There's your proof that I don't care about the Browns right now, I'm congratulating the Steelers for being the best franchise in the NFL. They're f'ing incredible.
