07:57 AM ET 12.19 | Alec Scheiner, now the first hire by Jimmy Haslam and Joe Banner in Cleveland, knows his way around working with an iconic brand. [Scheiner] spent the previous eight years with the Cowboys, the last five as senior vice president and general counsel. ... Scheiner, who began talking to Banner in June, views the Browns as a marketing gem similar to the Cowboys. "I do because the brand is so iconic and there's so much history behind it and the fans clearly care about the team," he said. "We just have to harness it. We have to harness it everywhere. We have to harness it with our employees, we have to harness it with people in the community, everyone can be a Browns fan. Everyone in Northeast Ohio, everyone in Ohio can be a Browns fan."

Oh no this is really mature. Maybe if you didn't run your mouth at the game people wouldn't have messed with you.

Ah, this coming from the beer swilling congressman from the craphole called S@ittsburgh. Been to the sewer you call a city, and it seems the same people that you were refering to were there as well. Unfortunately all teams have some of those types of "fans", but I find it funny that the pot was calling the kettle black.
