Cleveland Browns’ record since returning to Cleveland
Why draw that particular line at all?
You asked?
1999 was the rebirth of their franchise as a new expansion team in the NFL.
It's further relevant today because their loss last night cemented yet another losing season since their reboot.
If it makes you feel better use the turn of the century. The Browns have the worst record since then as well.
Arbitrary and meaningless.
Nope, and meaningless to you and possibly others here but certainly not Browns fans.
What you think is meaningless may actually have meaning to someone else here. Did you consider that before posting?
It's literally the exact opposite of arbitrary. It is a clearly delineated period in the franchise's history where they essentially came back into the league as an expansion team.
Not a single thing arbitrary about it. At all.
To decide to make it 1999 and relate it to Cleveland is entirely arbitrary.
Clearly explained and you can't accept sound reasoning, instead repeating your opinion.
Let's try it this way. Thread title: "Cleveland Browns' Record Since Returning To Cleveland"
It just so it happens to have been 1999.
I disagree. The Browns re-emerging in Cleveland is a major landmark in their existence and comparing us to them during this timeframe is valid.
You've made yourself clear. That's your opinion. It may be time for you to move on to another thread.
It's a post just to post something.
Pot calling the kettle black, maybe? Who appointed you to the Post police?
Why enter a thread "to post something just to post something" that brings nothing of substance to the thread?
The information in my OP may possibly be of interest to other pro football fans, including some here, even if not of interest to you.
To each his own.
