The only point of pride with today’s Cleveland Browns game

If you watched the Cleveland Browns – Green Bay Packers game earlier today, then you witnessed the disaster.

So did I – I was there, and it was ugly.

I could go into 1,000-word diatribes about the need to change QBs (It’s OK to do that when you have a backup QB, Pryor-haters), and I could write for hours about the relatively insane coaching decisions made by Eric Mangini. Maybe someday I will, but I just can’t muster up the energy to vent about this sinking ship.

But I’m very proud of one thing that happened today.

Throughout the game, the Browns implore the crowd to “report fan misconduct” by texting to a special number. I personally believe that the ads placed around the ring of the stadium are a waste of space that could be better used with a running scoreboard from games around the league, but that’s another story.

I decided to send a report to the Browns today, regarding misconduct;

“There’s a guy who keeps going on the field who shouldn’t be there. Please remove him. He can be identified by the large number 3 on his jersey.”

The Browns were not amused. Three minutes later, I got the following;

“The GuestAssist service is provided to ensure a safe environment for all guests. Continued misuse of the service may result in your mobile phone being blocked.”

I’m thinking that the next Browns home game, we should all send texts regarding Derek Anderson. Maybe they’ll remove him from the stadium for impersonating a quarterback.
