As I walked the streets of New Orleans headed towards the Superdome on Sunday I stumbled across a group of Browns fans gleefully partaking in chant.
“We’re gonna tie” , they screamed!
Sure it was tongue in cheek but at that moment I smiled and realized I was face to face with fans of an organization who’s expectations for their team were so low that a tie vs Pittsburgh last week was a positive thing.
Many fans were satisfied with the tie since it was not a loss and the team overcame a 14-point deficit late in the fourth quarter to force overtime.
