The Cleveland Browns vehicle is ready to make its first trip this season to the shores of Lake Erie for the game 🆚 the Texans. A lot of work has been done to the inside & now it’s time to enjoy the ride. Here we go Brownies here we go woof woof. See you Sunday! Go Browns!

Thanks 🙏🏼Joe Flacco. A true professional who come out of retirement to lead the Cleveland Browns to the playoffs. Loved his interviews with the press. He was genuine & at times made them laugh. On the field had some big plays & games. Remarkable the job he did on & off the field.
The Browns wouldn't have gotten to this point in the season without him. We appreciate you, Joe 🫶. Photo: Joshua Gunter,

Would love to see Joe Flacco next year as a backup to Deshaun Watson. He has shown he can come in & do a great job in a pinch. The Browns spent several weeks looking 👀 for a guy like Joe Flacco. Now that they have him, keep him in Cleveland. Great for the team. Go Browns!👍🏻🏈

Throwback Thurs. Brian Sipe led the 1980 Kardiak Kids Cleveland Browns to an 11-5 season record & won the AFC Central. He threw for 4,132 yds with 30 TD & was awarded the MVP of the NFL. Wow 😮 40 years ago! Can remember these exciting games well. The power of the orange pants!

The Cleveland Indians teams of the 90s. Mainly the 1995 team that went 100-44. Team batting average of .291 & smashed 207 homers. A great time to be a Cleveland Indians fan. New ballpark, and some great teams to play in it. The best of times.

OMG 😳 I remember when the Cleveland Browns were announced before the home playoff games in the 80s. The crowd was so loud & the energy in Cleveland Stadium was bedlam. Couldn’t even hear it when they announced Bernie’s name. Would love our young Browns fans to experience this.
Please, please, please let this younger generation of #DawgPound fans get the full experience of a home playoff game.#Cleveland.#BestLocationInTheNation.#BestFansInTheWorld.

These teams were great in the 90s. Every night the Indians had more hitting than the opponent. Everybody in that lineup could blast it. What a glorious time to be a Tribe fan! Jacob’s Field was sold out every night. Thanks for all the great memories guys. Magical 🧙 years. 👍🏻⚾️.

Heading to the shores of Lake Erie today to see the football 🏈 game between the Pittsburgh Steelers & the Cleveland Browns. Both teams @ 6-3 & a relevant NFL game with playoff possibilities. Orange pants, brown tops, & white face guards today? Just like the early 80s! Go Browns!

Glad I got a chance to see Albert Belle play for the Cleveland Indians. He could mash & his intensity level was incredible. Had a desire to win & did what it took to do so. Didn’t back down from anybody in any situation. Enjoyed watching Albert play & loved the Tribe of the 90s.
@VintageBrowns Albert Belle was fined in 1996 for knocking down Brewers infielder Fernando Viña, who had blocked his way between bases.

Was @ the Broncos vs Browns AFC Championship Game @ Cleveland Stadium on 1/11/87. Sitting above the dugout 3rd base line in the closed end. Had a good look at this FG attempt by Karlis. The kick was hooking & looked wide left. The refs signaled good & ran into dugout. Were cold.
A collectors item for sure…this rare corrected version of SI Cover infamous printing error.One of biggest gaffes in the storied publishers history !.#WideLeft

It’s so awesome when the Cleveland Browns are in the playoffs. Remembering the Kardiak Kids in 1980 & Bernie’s guys in from 1985-1989. Nerve wracking but so fun. Glad to be able to experience it again & happy the young Browns fans can experience this. Enjoy the game! Browns!
@_ifleezy_ I don’t know how many on this thread are old enough to have experienced the mid-lates 80’s success, but if you’re not, you haven’t seen nothing yet. And if this team advances to the brink of the Super Bowl, NE Ohio is going to freaking explode!! ….w/ excitement that is.

The new Browns flag I ordered just came in today. I couldn’t help it I had to fly it even though it’s not game day. Excited for the Browns season. Haven’t felt like this about a Browns team since Bernie’s guys in the 80s. Here we go Brownies here we go woof woof. Going to be fun!

What a season that was! Bernie & the 1986 Cleveland Browns team went 12-4 during the regular season. Then beat the Jets in 2 OT @ home 23-20 before losing to the Broncos in the AFC Championship. The team and fans were so connected. That feeling is back again. Go Browns!👍🏻🏈
The Cleveland #Browns have an opportunity to get their 12th win of the season next Sunday, something that hasn’t been done since 1986. I’m sure @BernieKosarQB remembers this season pretty well!.#DawgPound.
