In preparation for the '10 Browns season, and due to the miserable season for the Tribe and the unknown CAVS team, I am listing my 10 best Browns and/or NFL highlight to get ready for the season. Here is my list in no particular order:
- First game watching Browns live at Municipal Stadium, sitting behind 3rd base dugout and watching a "flea-flicker" pass to Rich Krietling v. NY Giants
- Browns v. Raiders "Red Right 88 game-there at the game and could not believe the silence after the interception. Then it really felt COLD!
- Browns doubleheader pre-season game v. Steelers. Between games, ABM had fireworks show and due to weather, second game was played in a smokey, fogging condition. Tremendous fights in bleachers, which was and still is the norm.
- Colts v. Giants NFL Championship game in '58
- Browns v. NY Jets, 1st Monday night game. Saw it in day room at FT. Campbell KY, while in basic training w/USArmy
- Browns v. Vikings, Hail Mary pass to Ahmad Rashad to win game at gun. Needed game and gave it up.
- The Drive-no more said!
- Browns v. NY Jets-Bernie's comeback to tie and win in 2OT.
- Browns v. Steelers-at game when the Browns returned. Only good thing, the back of my head made the front page of the Plain Dealer!
- Bears v. NY Giants Championship game. The end of game with Y. A. Title kneeing with bloody head. Unbelievable photo and game.
- Browns v. LA Ram '50 NFL Championship game. Dad personally knew Lou Groza and had an opportunity as a young kid to meet him and have him tell me the story leading to the game. Got me hooked as a Browns football fan.
Now, what about yours?
Browns vs. Dallas fall of 1979. After the game went to downtown BG. Ran into an old girlfriend. As a gentleman, I'll say no more.
