The First Name in Browns Blogging

Browse the Browns' weekly media release long enough, and you too might realize these strange things:

In all four of the Browns' exhibition games, the winner scored 20 points.
The Browns have opened their season with the Saints twice before. Each time (1968 and 1987), Cleveland ended up winning 10 games and going deep into the playoffs.
Not only do the Browns have to compete with strong Steeler and Bengal teams to have any playoff hopes this year, they actually risk losing their edge in the all-time head-to-head records against each of them.
Of the 22 Browns who started the last Saints game in 2002, only two will suit up for the Browns on Sunday (Tucker and Roye).
Charlie Frye already has the best winning percentage (.400) of the nine Browns starting quarterbacks since 1999.
The front office is making a great point to emphasize the Browns "successful roots," yet among retro uniform changes they list, the helmet's color change is not acknowledged.
Three members of the secondary ('Cutch, Russell, and Ralph Brown) were also teammates at the same high school.
Another member of the secondary, Antonio Perkins, earned a master's degree in the off-season.
The Browns netted exactly 1,000 yards in the preseason.
