2016 has been a great year for Cleveland. The Cavaliers won the NBA Final, the Indians won their first AL pennant in nearly 20 years (and depending on your point of view) it also hosted the Republican National Convention.
But the Cleveland Browns are a reminder that you can't completely extract that city from its losing ways. Tonight, the Browns fell to 0-10 following a 28-7 loss to the Baltimore Ravens. Of course, the original Browns moved to Baltimore 20 years ago. Since the second incarnation of the Browns was revived in 1999, they have had only two winning seasons and have made the playoffs once. Their only playoff appearance came in 2002 (they were eliminated by the Pittsburgh Steelers in the AFC Wild Card Game) and they last had winning season nearly a decade ago in 2007.
Cleveland just wouldn't be Cleveland if someone wasn't losing big.
