00:00Game winner!
00:01This is Cleveland Sports Radio, 92.3 The Fan.
00:05Three and one.
00:07Three and one.
00:09Three and one.
00:11Three and one.
00:13Three and one.
00:14Three and one.
00:1627, 24, go room to room.
00:20Wake up the family.
00:22Get the dog going.
00:23Get the kids going.
00:25Get the wife going.
00:26Get the coffee going.
00:28You're Cleveland Browns.
00:30A win over Pittsburgh last night.
00:33Three and one.
00:34And now at the top of the AFC North.
00:38Good morning, friends.
00:39Oh, how beautiful.
00:40How beautiful.
00:42In a game that is designed to have a lot of ugly,
00:46how beautiful walking away from that stadium.
00:48If you were in that place last night, credit to you,
00:52that place was bedlam.
00:54It was so loud.
00:56It was coming over the speakers.
00:58At night.
00:59It's amazing.
01:00Deafening.
01:00You guys were deafening in that stadium.
01:04Amazing.
01:05A week ago, we were talking about what the reaction was going to be in that place
01:09and whether Browns fans could cheer or boo or whatever.
01:12Amazing.
01:13We're done with that conversation.
01:14Amazing where the conversation is gone.
01:15You guys were tremendous.
01:16Absolutely amazing where the conversation is gone.
01:19When they play at night and there's the darkness that surrounds the stadium
01:24because it just goes off into Lake Erie, it becomes a party.
01:29It becomes bedlam just like what Tone said.
01:31There's an energy in the stadium.
01:33There's an energy to a team.
01:35There was an energy to the offense.
01:37And it's a great day today.
01:39It's a great day to be a Browns fan.
01:41It's a great day to wake up in the city.
01:43It's a great day to be excited for the Cleveland Browns who are 3-1 and again at the top
01:48of
01:49the AFC North.
01:49Again, at the top of the AFC North.
01:51Say it again, Kenny.
01:52At the top of the AFC North.
01:54There's the bottom.
01:55After going to Jacksonville and taking an ass-whooping of ass-whoopings,
02:01like when Foghorn Leghorn pulls up the tail of the dog and whoops its ass right outside of the doghouse.
02:07And then three weeks later, three weeks later, we're pulling up the dog
02:12and we're whooping its ass outside the dog pound.
02:14And you got all these Steelers fans,
02:17Oh, congratulations on your Super Bowl.
02:19One of the first things I woke up to this morning,
02:23at about 3 a.m., I slept for about 90 minutes.
02:25One of the first things I woke up to this morning,
02:28somebody said it to me, and they knew what they were doing.
02:30They knew they were trying to get me going.
02:31And they sent me some podcast, some dudes, you know, the double box and everything.
02:36And I don't know their name, and I don't want to give them the name
02:38because they'll probably just react to it and use it to monetize their own.
02:42But congratulations on your Super Bowl.
02:44Hey, you're 2-2.
02:46We're 3-1.
02:47You got a quarterback that bitches out Mike McCarthy right there from the huddle
02:52where God and everybody can hear it.
02:54You got everybody over there doing peyote and ayahuasca
02:56like you're the Beatles at the end of their run.
02:59You deal with your own problems, okay?
03:01Over here, we got our own set of circumstances here.
03:04We got conversations to have about a quarterback.
03:06We got conversations to have about whether or not you really believe.
03:09We have conversations to have about a 60-year-old head coach
03:13the first time ever that nobody wanted, nobody wanted, not us, not anybody who has
03:18re-instilled an excitement for this team, a passion for this team, a culture for this team.
03:24One of the things that we always talk about that you have to create, and they did it,
03:28and they're 3-1, and everybody's excited.
03:30And I don't know about tomorrow.
03:32I don't know about next week.
03:34I don't know about the weeks after.
03:35I know they're 3-1 right now, and the whole city's lit up.
03:38I know about tomorrow, Kenny.
03:40The Browns are still going to be in first place.
03:42And the Guardians play.
03:43And the Guardians play, and the Steelers are going to be in last place.
03:45Because on my screen, I'm looking at it right now, there's only so much space.
03:49We don't have one of these Xtend Technologies, you know, 100 inches of pure brilliance.
03:54Well, we can't do 100 inches.
03:55We won't be able to see each other or our own.
03:56It's a very tiny screen, but I'm seeing right now, the Browns are at the top of the screen.
04:01At the top.
04:02The bottom, let me get my bifocals out.
04:05Let me get my...
04:06Is that the Steelers?
04:07You got bifocals like you're Ben Franklin.
04:09Is that the Steelers, Kenny, at the bottom?
04:12At the bottom.
04:12Is that the Steelers four weeks in?
04:14At the bottom, two and two, four weeks in.
04:16You just made your move.
04:17You got Joey Porter Jr. problems over there.
04:20You're training everybody you got to the Dallas Cowboys.
04:23I don't need to hear it.
04:24I don't know.
04:25I understand.
04:25There's a long season left to go.
04:27But I got a football team that's 3-1 right now.
04:30That's the second youngest in the NFL.
04:32They played a team that's the second oldest in the NFL.
04:34I'm sweating my ass off.
04:36I'm under the weather.
04:37I'm excited for Browns football.
04:39I know you all are.
04:40Wake up the entire house.
04:41Let's get going at 6 a.m.
04:42You're right, Kenny.
04:43Let's get going at 6 a.m.
04:44One team trending north.
04:46The other going south.
04:48South.
04:50Listen to Michael.
04:52Listen to the group.
04:54Wake up the whole family.
04:56Get the neighbors doing what I don't care.
04:58Yes, this is how it feels.
05:00We don't get this feeling often.
05:02Not often.
05:03How great is that feeling?
05:04How great was that?
05:06We lined up for a 50.
05:07Was it 6?
05:0856.
05:0956-yard field goal.
05:10Kenny, I thought it was going in before he kicked it.
05:13When have I felt like that as a Browns fan?
05:16Did anybody think he was going to miss?
05:18Did you?
05:18Honestly, I'm being dead as Kenny has his own towel that he's wiping his forehead off right now
05:24after he worked himself into a lather here in the open.
05:28When's the last time as a Browns fan?
05:30You've had that much confidence in a kicker.
05:33Yes.
05:34When?
05:34Not just the kicker.
05:36It was our night.
05:37We weren't going to lose.
05:38I did not feel we were going to lose.
05:40I know there was time left on the clock.
05:41I know if he misses it.
05:42They have an incredible field position.
05:44The whole night you didn't think they were going to lose?
05:46After that first half, I didn't.
05:48I actually didn't for once.
05:50The way I was watching, I made the mistake.
05:52I was watching the first drive while looking at social media, and I'm like, oh boy, the
05:56chickens are coming home to roost.
05:57There was penalties, a couple of mishaps there.
06:01The missed call on Asante Samuel Jr., which was absolutely asinine.
06:07I'm like, man, I'm not getting a good feeling.
06:12And Denzel made the pick.
06:14The great play.
06:15Who the hell got his hands?
06:16Sam Williams got his hands on Aaron Rodgers' arms.
06:19Yes.
06:19Where did they pick him up?
06:21It was a tremendous...
06:22Well, that's a...
06:22You know what?
06:23We're going to have to have a conversation.
06:24When and where did they pick him up?
06:26It's October 2nd.
06:28We're going to have to have ourselves a conversation about Andrew Barry, if this is the case here,
06:31guys.
06:31I understand it's early.
06:33That's why you scout the league.
06:34That's why you scout other teams in their preseason and their practice squads.
06:39I know Andrew has family.
06:40I know that they listen.
06:42I know that they're excited.
06:44We might have to have an Andrew Barry conversation.
06:46I understand.
06:47Everybody's going to say it's early, this, that, and the other.
06:49I don't know about...
06:50Again, what Lima just said, I don't know about Monday or anything after Monday, but I'm going
06:55to tell you right now, it's a pleasure.
06:58It's an honor to be here, to see us get up off the mat as a fan base where we
07:05didn't
07:05like them, they didn't like us, and everybody was together, and he had 60,000 people in there
07:11losing their minds, and it's as exciting as it's been in years for this football team.
07:16And you know what?
07:17For the first time in a while, it's real.
07:19We talk about Brown's prison, and this was a guy who we had five years with, and it just
07:25felt like it was a prison sentence.
07:26And everybody moaned, myself included, and groaned and everything there, and I know we're
07:30going to talk about his performance in earnest coming up at 622, but to be able to put away
07:35the second half, to put away the third quarter, all that stuff, to focus in, to go down the
07:41field, that's a pro, credit where it's deserved, by everybody involved on the football team.
07:46Everybody involved in the organization.
07:48I thought they were going to be terrible this year.
07:52I had them for four wins this year.
07:53And then, you know, think about it, they lose Miles Garrett, they lose Alex Wright,
07:59they lose, it's one by one, then Mason Graham goes down, and they're regenerating like a
08:04starfish.
08:04They are just amazingly able to just continue throwing bodies.
08:09I didn't know starfish could regenerate.
08:10Oh, absolutely, Kenny.
08:12My wife is a science teacher, she can tell you all about that.
08:14That's true.
08:14And they just, one by one, kept coming at them, and I'm like, well, who's left?
08:19Now we're going to get decimated.
08:20Yeah, Aaron Rodgers had a very, very nice, kind of a throwback second half, throwback
08:25for both these quarterbacks.
08:26For Watson, it was in the first half.
08:28For Aaron Rodgers, he was just picking apart matchups like an NBA player, like going at
08:34it.
08:34He was terrific in the second half.
08:35That made it even better.
08:36Honestly, that made it even better that you held on and got that victory.
08:40But kudos to the defensive coordinator left for dead in the first game of the year, in
08:46the first 10 minutes of the year in the Jacksonville game, and they just keep coming.
08:51And then Hall leaves the game on a cart, Caleb Williams style, and he's back in there later
08:57in the game making huge plays.
09:00Awesome.
09:012-1-6-4-7-4-0-0-92.
09:03It's a hell of a day to be a Browns fan.
09:05Enjoy this day.
09:07Enjoy these moments here.
09:08We got to take them while we can get them.
09:10I almost got choked up just thinking about it.
09:12I mean, my God.
09:12Yeah, we don't get this feeling much.
09:14To see where we're at.
09:15I know I got choked up when they made the playoffs.
09:18I'm going to hold back on it as best I can.
09:21I just get filled with the spirit, the energy, how palpable it is for the fans, how much they
09:28love the team, because they really love each other.
09:31And I know these last two months have been a roller coaster.
09:34It didn't start out fun whatsoever.
09:36And we still got a long way to go.
09:38And I don't know how I'm going to start a show off in November.
09:40I don't know how I'm going to start a show off in December.
09:41I have no idea how that's going to happen.
09:43I have no idea.
09:44But I'm going to take what I can get right now.
09:46And what I can get is a 27-24 win where the culture's fantastic.
09:50The players are loving each other.
09:52They're loving their coach.
09:53The coach is loving the players.
09:54The energy is there.
09:56Everything that you've ever wanted as a Browns fan was there last night.
10:01And damn it, you should be proud to be a Browns fan.
10:03You should be proud of the football team.
10:06216-474-0092.
10:08Let me get to Jay and Warren.
10:09Hello.
10:11Hey, how you guys doing this morning, fellas?
10:13We're doing wonderful, Jay.
10:14Doing great.
10:15Go right on ahead.
10:16Hey, so I just wanted to make an observation.
10:18I think that Todd Munkin deserves all the credit in the world for the turnaround that we are seeing with
10:24Deshaun Watson.
10:25And we didn't see this under Stefanski.
10:27And I also want to give credit to Mike Tomlin.
10:30Thank you, God, for that compliment that you made about the Browns as the Browns.
10:35It's your fault.
10:37Well, it just seemed to be.
10:38And, Jay, thank you very much for the call.
10:40Jay, all the way out in Warren.
10:41They have a wonderful water system out there.
10:43I pass it all the time on my way out to Cortland to see my brother-in-law.
10:46It's wonderful.
10:48To hear that, I remember that we were getting the jeers after Todd Munkin had said that because it was
10:52like,
10:53Kenny, are you getting a little bit of a Freddy Kitchens vibe?
10:55Yeah, is this going to be on a shirt?
10:56Is this going to be something we mock when he's one and done?
10:59And, hey, you know.
11:01He's won three straight games since then.
11:02You're one and one.
11:03You're excited.
11:05And it's exactly what Tone says.
11:07You win three straight games since then.
11:09And to change the energy of the stadium, to change the energy of the fans,
11:17it speaks to the type.
11:19The guy is making the most.
11:21He's been waiting his entire life to do this, and he's making the most of his moment.
11:24And I salute him for it.
11:26He's done a remarkable job so far.
11:28And the way that these guys have played with a renewed energy and spirit,
11:33it's brought heart back to the fan base.
11:36It's brought a feeling back to the fan base that it's almost indescribable.
11:39It really is.
11:402-1-6-4-7-4-0-0-92.
11:42Paul in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, you're next up on the fan.
11:45Hello, Paul.
11:46Good morning, gentlemen.
11:48Morning, Paul.
11:49Happy Victory Friday.
11:50Same to you, Paul.
11:51Same to you.
11:52When was the last time we had a victory Monday and a victory Friday in the same week?
11:56It feels like it's been forever.
11:58Is it too much winning with Munkin or not enough winning?
12:00It's not enough winning.
12:01We continue to win.
12:02We want to keep winning.
12:03We have the Jets next week.
12:04We can win.
12:05I want to keep winning.
12:06Listen, I'm with you.
12:08I was just so happy for my family.
12:10You know, my son flew in last night from the University of Alabama.
12:13He's a freshman.
12:14He came home to watch a game.
12:16My daughter came home.
12:17My oldest couldn't.
12:18But we all got to sit around and watch the Browns win.
12:21And I only got four words for you guys.
12:25Super Bowl!
12:28Super Browns!
12:29Yeah!
12:30I knew it was going to be that.
12:32I just didn't want to jump the gun.
12:34Chris and Icaro, you're next up on the fan.
12:36Hello, Chris.
12:37Hey, guys.
12:38Three and one.
12:40Three and one.
12:41Three and one.
12:42Three and one.
12:44Man, I was at the game last night.
12:46I called you guys yesterday morning and I told you, man, this is what we've been waiting for.
12:50As Browns fans, our hope is back.
12:53Oh, that stadium was rocking.
12:55And you know what?
12:56When we went on that last drive, nobody had any doubts.
13:01Everybody had the confidence in Deshaun.
13:02They knew we were going to go down there.
13:04They knew we were going to score.
13:06It's a different feel.
13:07It's a different Browns.
13:09Here we go, Brownies.
13:11Here we go.
13:12Chris.
13:13This is what I'm talking about.
13:14It's a fabulous day for Browns fans everywhere.
13:16Thank you very much for the call.
13:17How many fans are hoarse today?
13:19How many fans?
13:20I got to say, if you're up right now, this is pretty incredible.
13:23Maybe you just have a real job and you have to go to work.
13:25No, that's fine.
13:25You see, you got to face the music.
13:26You got to do what you got to do.
13:27And how great is it to just go to bed, look at that clock after midnight and go, yeah,
13:32you know what?
13:32I'm going to suck it up.
13:33I'm going to suck it up.
13:34I'm going to be the head of the household.
13:36I'm going to be okay.
13:37I'm going to go earn some money on a Friday.
13:40And I'm going to celebrate and bask in the glow of a damn Browns victory twice in five days.
13:45When does that happen?
13:46216-474-0092.

14:31Yeah, my coach is out there playing the ponies.

14:35The same thing my seven-year-old does.

14:38Munching on sausage and pierogi.
