I needed to run in to the city this afternoon, and after listening to the end of the Lions radio broadcast I switched to the last few minutes of the Browns game. I already knew they were going to lose but wanted to hear if the Pats had upped the score since I last checked.
Terrestrial radio being what it is, they are trying to get in as many ads as they can whenever there is a stoppage in play. The first one was for PNC Bank and the comically over-eager announcer made certain I knew that “PNC is the OFFICIAL BANK of the Cleveland Browns”. Moments later, it was the same thing for “FORD...THE OFFICIAL VEHICLE OF THE CLEVELAND BROWNS”!!!
Now, I don’t care much about Ford one way or the other. I just think it’s funny that anybody wants to pay money for the privilege of linking their name/product with never-ending joke that is the Cleveland Browns.
