The error in your list is with the Cleveland Browns. The Browns that were founded in 1944 became the Baltimore Ravens, but the city of Cleveland retained the rights to the team name and colors in a trust. When the NFL expanded again in 1999, Cleveland got a new team, which became the Browns. The NFL played some shenanigans to call Baltimore the expansion team, but Baltimore got all of Cleveland’s players, coaches and owner, and when Cleveland got another team 3 years later, it was stocked through the expansion draft. So, Cleveland has never won, but they have only been in existence for 25 years.

That’s it. Lions had a 24-7 lead at half.

Technically true, but moot in the context of this thread and superbowl droughts and Kat Timf sharing stories of her family’s strife as fans.

Browns fans are more loyal than any fanbase, pretty much ever. No one else kept a moderate level of seats filled during such periods of ineptitude and loss to the same degree than Browns fans have. I’m not sure if that’s even a compliment. Depends how you look at it. But not only did they get a bad team back (theirs was really the expansion team, in effect) but they got the same colors and name, and a terrible run ever since. So in the context of a team drought from the perspective of a city and fan base, it counts.

The 2001 Super Bowl should have been the Browns.

Wow, that is the best rant I have ever witnessed! I had the same reaction last night when the Lions blew it.

I haven't been a fan of the Lions for years and in fact always rooted against them. But then this year, they kept winning and I kept saying that would be their last win.

Then they made it to the playoffs and I figured that would be their last game. But it wasn't.

Then they made it to the NFC championship and now I'm suddenly a fan, hoping for some miracle they could win.

But true to form, they figured out a way to lose the big game.

I'm with you Kat!

I suspect it will be another 20 years before the Lions make it to the playoffs again....

As a side note, Kat is from Wixom, just outside of Detroit and is a graduate of Hillsdale College........

Why get so wound up about a game you admittedly aren’t familiar with?

Probably for the same reason you watched a video you couldn't care less about.........LOL!

The taunting was worse than the fumble.
