On a barely related note I have strangely resonant memories of the day the guy who owned the Cleveland Browns (Art Modell?) sold them so they could become the Baltimore Ravens. I don’t remember what NFL game I was watching but it kept cutting to clips from the Browns-Oilers game that day and the Oilers were whupping the Browns’ asses and it was in Cleveland it was grey skies and torn up dirty field like it always seemed to be at a Cleveland game (or maybe I’ve just watched documentaries and clips about “The Drive” too many times) and there was this shot of the owners’ box with nobody in it. They played sad music during the ESPN NFL Primetime clips of the game. Of course two or three years later the Browns were back, but that memory has always stuck out to me.
