Cleveland Browns Fans Rip Off |
According to the Herald, feeling "the Browns needed something to combat the dreaded 'Terrible Towel' which is waved by tens of thousands of fans at Pittsburgh Steelers games", some Cleveland Browns fans fave resorted to blasphemy by creating the new "Dirty Brown Towel".
The creators encourage Browns fans to "Show [their] team spirit by swinging the original ?Dirty Brown Towel? and restoring the old glory days of the Dog Pound. Imagine the energy from thousands of roaring fans swinging The Dirty Brown Towel as the Browns do battle on the gridiron. The Dirty Brown Towel will represent a high level of fan loyalty and commitment to the Browns."
This sort of assault on Pittsburgh's traditions, customs, and mores should not be allowed to continue unchallenged! A good first step would be to contact the company marketing this cheap knock-off and let them know how ANGRY this makes you! The company is called "
Omericorp Sports Collectibles". Their phone number is (866) 326-3958 and their email address is info@thedirtybrowntowel.com.
Defend the honor of Myron Cope and your World Champion Pittsburgh Steelers against the dastardly crimes against decency! It is not our fault the Browns can't field a quality football team. Nor is it our fault that their fans cannot come up with an original marketing idea of their own. However, we sure as hell can't sit back and allow everything our city stands for to be swept out from under our feet!
My fellow Pittsburghers, this is war! War of the most devastating and terrible nature. Our very honor is on the line. We must protect the sanctity of the Terrible Towel and everything it stands for from these Godless and reprehensible people. If we must, we will INVADE Cleveland and lay their city to waste! We will turn the mistake by the lake into a ghost town and fly our black and gold towel over their remains! You are either with us, or with the Browns!
And may the Steelers CRUSH the Browns on every occasion they may meet in the future. Amen!

First off, let me tell you I'm a Clevelander and a die-hard Browns fan. The Dirty Brown Towel is the worst fucking thing I have ever seen and we have enough embarrassing shit going on in our stadium! You are not alone in this fight Pittspuke, our natives are indeed restless as well!

You know, I'm glad to hear that. No real fan from any team wants their team's marketing department to copy stuff like this from other teams, ESPECIALLY from a rival team.
Up with real football fans. Down with two-bit marketing executives! :)

Towels are everywhere in sports. The Steelers didnt start that shit, they just have a bunch of willd ass mokey mother fuckas who like to waive there hands in circles! The d-pound is original- waiving a fucking towel over your head is not. What yall need to start doing it wearing "terrible helmets" to the games, then maybe you would have a QB

Actually, I'd bet that the people who made the Dirty Brown Towel are in reality Steeler fans. Think about it. How better to humiliate your worst enemy, than by attributing something to their team so vile as a shit brown towel!

Steeler fans are so stuck up. They think they invented everything about football. The Steelers can figure out how to put an emblem on both sides of the helmet (no stickers are better than one), they call themselves balck and gold when in reality everything they sell is yellow (urine color), and they fail to realize that historically speaking, the Browns are far superior to the Steelers. Who owns the series lead? Steeler fans are so smug, I'm just glad that Kordell Porter doesn't kiss everyone like he french kissed Bill Coward.

The smell of hopelessness is overwhelming as they try to maintain hope and stay relevant in today's NFL. ;)

If being relevent you mean that you have to break a quarterbacks leg to advance in the playoffs and then rely on blind referees to allow you to lay claim to a championship (notice I didn't say they won), then I don't want to be relevent. And why was it that the Steeler organization had the Ben Worthlessberger run put in place (can't hit a QB below the knees)? Because they knew the Bengals would be gunning for him.

Well at least you can dry your tears on your very own, brand new, Dirty Brown Towel! For it looks like another long, fruitless season for the Browns this year.
I guess I'd be bitter too if my team never made it to the Super Bowl, then left town, then won the SB under their new team name (the Ravens). Poor, poor land of Cleve. All you can do is call our QB names, knowing just how much you would love to have him on your team. (Any claims to the contrary would be transparent.)
Poor, poorland of Cleve.

In response to "t": you make a comment about our quarterback, and yet your team is led by Charlie Frye? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Dude, you should be on stage at the Improv! That's hilarious! Methinks I hear the crickets in your head chirping quietly in embarassment.

Another long fruitless season? Like last year? When we lost a bunch of games?
Frye over Roethlesberger?
What the hell is in the water in the land of Cleve? No wonder the Browns suck so bad!

So how long will it be before the Steelers have more victories than the Browns. I see a Steeler ship going down this season. I see a fifth NFL Championship for the Browns.
