Tied 27-27, the Browns lined up for a game-winning 50-yard field goal attempt. Kicker Travis Coons was a perfect 18-for-18 on the season entering the play so there was reason to be optimistic. Browns fan Matt Alberson was excited and ready to capture the moment.

Except disaster struck and the Ravens ended up winning on a blocked kick touchdown return.

Kick Six, what an ending! Like a triple play in baseball.

That’s why I don’t watch the Bills. Anywhere, anytime, at all. I have no control over the outcome of a game, why get emotional over it.

Saw it.

Hated it.

But was I surprised?

Nope.

The Browns clock management at the end was really bad - and that blocked FG for a TD was a dagger in the heart.

The people who shell out $50+ to sit in the stands and watch the game are the worst possible fans. They’ve invested monetarily in their teams, bought the jerseys, paid outrageous sums just to park there and eat the popcorn. They’re not mentally balanced to begin with.

I’d rather sit at a sports bar and talk to a cute waitress while watching and enjoying tasty food in a comfortable chair indoors for a mere pittance of what it would cost to go to the stadium and sit in a small chair under questionable weather conditions around a bunch of mental cases.

As a die hard Cleveland fan , I just couldn’t stop laughing last night. And just thinking about it now makes me chuckle.

Not a Browns fan, but I feel for those that are. So many years of frustration and defeat. Sorry guys, the end of your misery is not in sight.

It’s the curse of Lake Erie. What happened to Belichek after he left the Browns? What happened to the original browns when they snuck away in the middle of the night to Baltimore? . .What happened to Lebron when he scurried away to Miami?
