Browns Film Room: Where art thou defense?
October 9, 2015More action, still awkward: Timofey Mozgov dunks, dives, and dodges in new commercial
October 9, 2015After a heartbreaking loss in classic brown-on-white uniforms at the hands of the San Diego Chargers last week, the Cleveland Browns are mixing it up. In fact, they’re trying the exact opposite. (Maybe someone in Berea reads WFNY?)
Per a tweet from the team on Thursday afternoon, the Browns will take the field against the Baltimore Ravens this Sunday in white jerseys, brown pants and orange socks.
Time to unveil this week's uniform combo…

Long ago, when sailing ships ruled the sea, this captain and his crew were always in danger of being boarded by pirates from a pirate ship.
One day while they were sailing, they saw that a pirate ship had sent a boarding party to try and board their ship. The crew became worried, but the Captain was calm.
He bellowed to his First Mate, “Bring me my red shirt!”
The First Mate quickly got the Captain’s red shirt, which the captain put on. Then he led his crew into battle against the mean pirates. Although there were somecasualties among the crew, the pirates were defeated.
Later that day, the lookout screamed that there were two pirate vessels sending two boarding parties towards their ship. The crew was nervous, but the Captain, calm as ever, bellowed, “Bring me my red shirt!” And once again the battle was on!
The Captain and his crew fought off the boarding parties, though this time more casualties occurred.
Weary from the battles, the men sat around on deck that night recounting the day’s events when an ensign looked at the Captain and asked, “Sir, why did you call for your red shirt before the battle?”
The Captain, giving the ensign a look that only a captain can give, explained, “If I am wounded in battle, the red shirt does not show the blood, so you men will continue to fight unafraid.” The men sat in silence. They were amazed at the courage of such a man.
As dawn came the next morning, the lookout screamed that there were pirate ships, 10 of them, all with boarding parties on their way. The men became silent and looked to the Captain, their leader, for his usual command.
The Captain, calm as ever, bellowed, ‘Bring me my brown pants!!!’
The Cubs already showed us how to beat the Pirates
