My son is 12. He slept with a Browns mini football in his Browns jammies from the time he was born. His room is a Browns, Buckeyes and Red Wings shrine. My proudest moment....he was two years old riding in the cart at Krogers and a guy and girlfriend sporting steelers gear walked by. Without any prompting from me, he yelled "Booooooo!" and held his nose. He was on my lap the first game of the return. He watches most games....we have a good time with infrequent cheering and frequent critique. I've taken him to a few games and had a good time. His first game, a preseason game against Detroit when he was 4 or 5, on the first series of downs he asked, "where's the yellow line?".
He wants to go to a game this year, but I absolutely refuse to dump money into this disaster of a season. Lastly, it helps that he has friends that are also Brown fans.
