I was sitting here thinking, and something popped in my head. Sometimes deep down I felt like the curse was real. So many things happened over decades that just felt that way. Losing games after losing one starter. Getting beat on a bad call. Defense giving up multiple scores at the end of the game, after dominating for three quarters.
Then I was thinking about the Elf. Many younger fans hate it, and others laughed at it. Myself always liked it, it took me back to being a kid and seeing it on football cards. The team brought it back, and have incorporated it more. Then there was an opponent dissing it before a game this year. Seems like that sparked a new love for the logo.
It seems to me that since that happened, this team seemed to start getting the breaks they never got. The team started winning games in the final minute, instead of losing. Players dropping left and right and back ups winning games for us. The Elf was the logo for the Browns when they were champions. Putting the Elf on the field tied this team to the dynasty that once was.
Was it Modell who trashed the Elf? This I don't know, but I am of the belief that these events with the Elf, have maybe broken the curse. Summoning the ghosts of the past to breath a winning attitude into the team.
Call me crazy, but I want to believe
