You forgot to mention the weasel Art Modell fired Belichick because he didn't like the fact that Belichick made his own decisions in an effort to field the best team. An ultimate what could have been.Browns fans really got a raw deal; Sipe throwing an INT in the end zone vs the Raiders when all they needed was a FG, "The drive", "The Fumble", then they hire Belichick and are looking like they are on the way back, then that weasel Modell moves them to Baltimore and they get to three Super Bowls and win two.
Then to top it off, they get a new franchise that has yet to win a playoff game.
God's speed to your MIL; hey, at least she's got you.......................
