I'm still sad over the Indians trying to do away with Chief Wahoo.

This is what it's being moved to now.

Wahoo still appears on some jerseys...just not all.  And the logo is smaller.  The "C" is what is predominately worn.

God, I miss the Colonel.  Does anyone have video of that post game where Acta was like "why is he stressed?  Last place ballclub, half-empty stadium, no lead to hold.  This is a pretty fair ballpark."

who was this in reference to?

The Browns uniform is the most classic in the NFL.

I'm glad I'm not a fan of the Skins and their overrated QB RG3 who will not be nearly as good as everyone thinks.

better the non-rated colt McCoy who may or may not still have his faculties intact? At least we have an owner (bad as he's been)

James Haslam is still one of 22 shareholders in the Steelers, yet yesterday he visited the Browns headquarters where he was introduced as the incoming owner. Technically, of course, league rules prohibit someone from owning stakes in two teams, and the NFL’s owners have yet to vote on his purchase. But it’s a sticky situation because the Rooney family, the controlling shareholders of the Steelers, do not have the cash to buy out Haslam and the league does not want him to be privy to information in rival teams.

I'm not a 'skins fan.    I'm a Steelers' fan.  :)

Doubtful. He likely said nice things at the press conference, patted a few of his guys on the ass, and went home whistling and loving life. He has the killer instinct of a goldfish.

Another one of those losses looming tonight, as the Twins are pounding them 13-1 in the 6th.

Much better than wearing a uniform that makes you look like you're a McDonald's employee

You can keep assuming everyone here is Redskins fans, and you'll keep assuming wrong.
