"For dedicated Browns fans the book is] like leafing through an
old family photo album." -- BlogCritics.com
Here's a question for any Browns fan: Why?
Why, more than four long decades after your team's last
championship . . . despite a relentless pattern of heartbreak,
teasing, and more heartbreak . . . capped with a decade of utter
futility . . . do you still stick with the Cleveland Browns?
Veteran sportswriter Terry Pluto gets a daily barrage of email
from fans letting their hearts bleed out orange and brown. So he
decided to ask his readers: Just what is it about this team that
makes you love them, hate them, and still keep coming back for
more?
A thousand fans responded--in detail. Their stories--along with
interviews with former players and Pluto's own expert
analysis--deliver the answer. Answers, actually. Because like any
intense relationship, it's a little complicated . . .
Covering the Browns from 1964 through present day, this book
does for Cleveland football what Pluto's classic about the Indians,
The Curse of Rocky Colavito, did for Cleveland baseball: It won't
make the pain go away, but it might help you remember why it's
worth enduring.
