So... how do Browns fans do it?

How have they stayed loyal for so many years through truly awful teams with zero direction?

I know it's easy for them to pack the house this year... They've finally got some things going their way, they've played well and they're dark horse playoff contenders.

But they haven't always been like that. They've been bloated financially, confused, left without an offense, left without a defense, and for years dwelled the bottom of the league in ways that would make even the Raiders blushed.

And yet, that stadium is always packed. It's not a city where you say "well what else have they got to root for" because the Indians and the Cavaliers are occasional title contenders in their respective sports. It's a madhouse there, despite the awful weather, bad coaching and worse personnel (until this year). Nothing's gone their way.

They even lost their team for a short while.

How do Browns fans put up with all that, and what can Chiefs fans learn from it?
