You could just flat sub the Browns in here:

"55. The facts heading into this season: The Warriors missed the playoffs 29 times in 35 years ? the Warriors won four playoff series total in 34 years ? the Warriors haven't made the playoffs for two straight seasons since 1977 ? the Warriors haven't made the Conference Finals since 1976 ? the Warriors haven't had an All-Star since 1997 ? the Warriors have earned spots at 16 of the last 17 lotteries (impossible but true) ? the Warriors have made 22 top-14 picks since 1985 (including 11 in the top eight and five in the top three) ? and the Warriors made so many bad first-round picks and overpaid so many guys over the past 35 years that I don't even have time to type all their names again."

the Cavaliers (not even the second-most tortured franchise in their own city)

It's funny (and sad) because it's true.

Cleveland sports fans take a back seat to no one.

Fuck Cubs fans. They had the Bears and the Bulls.

Fuck Golden State fans. They had the 49ers.

Cleveland fans have not only lost, but they have lost in mind numbing fashion. They saw the mountain top and had the rope cut. Jordan over Ehlo. Fucking Jose Mesa. The Drive. The Fumble.

Nothing but heartbreak for my entire life.

Remember that time a local kid named a television special "The Decision" and then proceeded to rip the heart out of the town he was from....

That was fun too.

Tim Couch, Greg Swindell,Julio Franco, Kurt Bevacqua- the pain goes on and on in Cleveland. Get your heart set on a hero and they leave you in the dust.
