This former Brown, whose birthday is today, averaged 24 yards per reception while in Cleveland, though his career average was even higher. The rules: Leave the correct answer as a comment below. (Optional, but interesting: tell us how you knew or derived your answer.) You should be signed in to The Muni Lot to leave […]
Romeo Crennel’s press conferences are seldom exhibitions of eloquence or excitement. He’s the master of staying on message, mercilessly, to the point of triteness and tautology. We’re gonna continue to try to improve, and I think then we’ll be a little better. That kind of stuff, ad nauseum. Romeo plays it excessively close to the […]
Big day of Browns birthdays today: The great Bill Willis — Hall of Famer, original Brown, and pioneer of what became the middle linebacker position — celebrates his 85th. Also, Bobby Franklin turns 70 today. Paul Brown converted the former Ole Miss QB into a defensive back, and he picked off eight passes as a […]
About time I got around to posting another one of these (even though the previous question remains open for the taking): Who is the only man to have played for the Browns both before and after playing for the Raiders? The rules: Leave the correct answer as a comment below. (Optional, but interesting: tell us […]
Wow, it’s been well over a week and I’ve had nothing at all to post here — the longest in-season gap in this blog’s four-year history. The reasons are several, but since no one has asked, I won’t bore you with the full litany. Suffice it to say that, while my passion for the Browns […]

The rules: Leave the correct answer as a comment below. (Optional, but interesting: tell us how you knew or derived your answer.) You […]
Just as it’s nice to hang on to the afterglow of a victory, it’s tough to let go of a loss. The anticlimax is especially pronounced for an Opening Day home game that resulted in such lackluster play. While the last thing we need is another full-fledged autopsy of last Sunday’s corpse, here are a […]
I hope this is not a loaded question: Name all of the Browns head coaches who were replaced — never again to lead another NFL team (to date) — directly following losses to the Cincinnati Bengals. The rules: Leave the correct answer as a comment below. (Optional, but interesting: tell us how you knew or […]
Here’s the kind of sophisticated Browns fan that I am. Just before the long-awaited opening kickoff, the waitress had set before me a tall glass of amber ale. Inexplicably, during Josh Cribbs’ return, a party of four deserted a large round table with the best angle to the biggest TV airing the Browns game. A […]
