Formed in 1950, they were named for their legendary coach Paul Brown. They won their title in their first year of existance, taking 2 more crowns in 1954 and 1955 and making the playoffs 9 times during the 1950s. They contined to play good football in the 1960s and early 1970s but could not make it to another championship game. The 1980s were filled with disappointment. The team had 7 playoffs during the decade but could not reach the Super Bowl, losing the AFC Championship game, each time to the Denver Broncos, in 1986, 1987, and 1989. The 1986 game featured the famous Denver comeback known as The Drive, which crushed the hopes of Bernie Kosar and the Browns. After a 1994 playoff berth, team owner Art Modell relocated the team to Baltimore following the 1995 season after a dispute with the city over the building of a stadium. Angered fans saw a new incarnation of the team, the expansion Browns, return in 1999. Since then, they have 1 playoff berth, in 2002.
"And John Elway has orchistrated an amazing comeback, and he will head to the Super Bowl. It's all over, the Broncos have broken the hearts of the Cleveland Browns in one of the great collapsed in NFL history."

Similar to a dirty sanchez, only, after anal sex, you smear the poo under each eye,thus resembling a football player.
Last night I tackled my girlfriend below the 10 yard line, turned her tight end into a wide reciever and penalized her with a Cleveland Brown..
She promptly retaliated by sacking my quarterback (penis).

A team that has had a great history until the year 1995, when Art Modell took our players, our coaches, and our city's pride and took it to Baltimore and a few years later stole our super bowl. A team with a fan base that does not care if they win or lose unlike those god dam Steelers fans. Most of the Steelers fan base is in Ohio in which they say they are true fans, when most of them can't say where the city is, the head coach, or say they have been in the same state. Also, nice job losing to a 1-11 team when you were the defending Super Bowl Champions. Anyway every Browns fan is loyal because everyone else are assholes so they only cheer for the Steelers.Maybe I talked to much about the Steelers but the point is Browns mean a lot to this city and other people don't get it because they are fucking ass kissing, bandwagon jumping, idiot assholes. If you are from somewhere around Pittsburgh then its ok to be a fan.
Steelers fan(not real one) "Man I am such a good fan these Steelers are awesome and the Cleveland Browns suck."Browns fan"Ok, tell me who is the head coach, starting Strong safety, the location of the city, and what state they are in" Steelers fan"Uh... well our quarterback is awesome" Browns fan" Oh isn't he getting another sexual lawsuit, tell me his name.Steelers fan"Number 7"browns fan" Get the fuck out of here.
