Monday Night Football

OK, so we take on the Rams tonight. It's not the best time for the Browns to be on Monday Night Football, not at all. At 4-8 the team has lost much of it's offensive line, it's starting running back, it's leading receiver, and perhaps both starting cornerbacks. Plus the coach is openly speculating whether the offensive coordinator will return next season and the weather is getting brutally cold. I know of several season ticket holder who will not be in their seats to witness tonight's game. Tonight should be an exciting and very cool time to be a Browns fan, but the general feeling in Cleveland is fear, fear of embrarassment by a 9-3 Rams squad.

I can't say I'm optimistic, but I'm hopeful that it will be entertaining. That's about all I can venture. With Anthony Henry and Daylin McCutheon both hurting it could get ugly. And I'm upset with myself for starting Hassellbeck over Bulger on the fantasy team (which was 10-3 up until this weekend). Lots of Browns fans will be tuned on tonight. It remains to be seen how enthusiastic the crowd at CBS will be.
