Today is the day that Cleveland Browns fans have been waiting for.
After months of hearing about big boards, fluid hips, short arms, tight ankles, combines, Pro days, 40-yard dash times, game changers, sleepers, and more mock drafts from the likes of Mel Kiper, Todd McShay and Mike Mayock, it is finally time for the NFL Draft.
Heading into tonight's action, the Browns hold the No. 6 pick in the first round, as well as pick Nos. 68, 104, 139, 164, 175 and 227.
This will be the first draft for the team under CEO Joe Banner, the first draft with general manager Mike Lombardi in the building since 1996, and the first draft in franchise history where the owner is facing a federal investigation for his business practices.
In other words, just another day in Cleveland sports.
So what will the Browns do when they finally get on the clock at approximately 9:30 p.m.?

Those of you who read me (or who employ me) understand that I rarely work or write with a plan. I pretty much look at the three Cleveland sports teams and maybe the Buckeyes and go off on whatever tangent I may have for a given article. I write a lot of stuff from an emotional perspective of a fan, like you, who may have witnessed what I’m writing about only a few minutes before spilling out my thoughts on the matter. That's how I do it and that's how I deal with what seems like zipper punch after zipper punch with the teams I follow.
Being a fan of Cleveland sports is one of the better aspects of life, aside from the no championship thing, of course.
The Cleveland Browns were up to business again on Thursday,
Apparently no one associated with the newest, latest version of the Cleveland Browns believes that less can be more. When it comes to the Browns and their recently announced radio broadcast rights deals, more is more under the theory, I suppose, that there is no limit to how much Browns related programming can be absorbed. Actually we're about to find out as the Browns flood the airwaves over the next year with 1,000 hours of stupefying shows.
