It was "Wear Your Jersey to Work" day today. My beloved team is out of the playoffs but one Dallas fan in particular, who just received a nifty gifty for the holidays, is a little nervous about the game this weekend...hence the theme.

Well as of today, you all have something in common, wait till next year.
never stepped foot in the land of cleve, grew up in DC a Dallas fan just to piss my dad off. a few years ago i started doing fantasy football and began watching the Browns and took a liking to the organization, i had cut all ties with Dallas once Jerry Jones came into the picture so i needed a team to route for and somehow the Browns became that team.
my first year of FF i had KJ (Kevin Johnson) and he did a decent job, not great but well enough for me to take notice and start watching this team that i had no association with whatsoever. somehow through watching him that season i took a liking to the team and it just stuck. i've met a really good friend of mine through watching the brownies so having an actual clevelander to enjoy the games with makes it even more exciting.
i also like: no cheerleaders, no logo and the colors brown and orange which are the BEST colors in the entire world! :)
hehehe...fair enough. i like the "idea" behind no cheerleaders - just solid football. but I have to admit i always get excited when watching a dallas or raiders game and they cut to the bouncing, kicking, short skirted cheerleaders. i know it's simple minded =)
