Cleveland Browns: Why I Hate the Steelers...

1. The Steelers rarely embarrass themselves...in public, on the field, in front of the press. And, if a player or employee embarrasses the organization, someone shows them the door. The Browns embarrass themselves...often. Since 1964, we let Jim Brown get away, we showed Bernie Kosar the door, saw Art Model moved the Browns to Baltimore, have a coaching and upper management carousel, have Staph infections galore, and have poor play on the football field. (Add more embarrassing moments here.)

2. The Steelers hire good coaches, and those coaches hire good assistants. Yes, every coach makes some poor decisions, but for the most part...can you argue with Coach Noll and Coach Cowher? Both won a Super Bowl. As far as Mike Tomlin, give him some time. The Browns never even made it to a Super Bowl, let alone win one. (Find a shooting star, and make a wish.)

3. The Steelers show old players, troubled players, and inept players the door, and they fill those positions quickly with team players who fight for a cause on every play. The Browns keep players around, making them take pay cuts, and they still fail to make plays. The Browns keep troubled players on the roster because they have little to no depth. Unlike Cleveland's young players, the Steelers youngins make a significant impact. (Create your "Dear Santa" list now.)

4. The Steelers play through adversity, and they find ways to win games on a regular basis. Furthermore, experts pick the Steelers to win the AFC Central, AFC North, or any division that includes the Browns. (Add insult here.) 

5. Please, help me continue the list...I'm about to vomit because I still watch the Browns, hoping for something positive to happen on a regular basis.
