Scoring Guidelines (add up [x] points for each answer):
-45: You don't miss a Browns game and no matter how many painful seasons you have endured, you'll never give up.
-42 to -35: You're hardcore! Get your bark on! Here we go Brownies, here we go!
-34 to +34: You are some rare hybrid, who may or may not care about the Steelers and Browns. In fact, you may hate football altogether. You could be from Youngstown. You (and I) are wondering why you're still reading this blog.
35-42: You're hardcore! "Heeeeere we go...Pittsburgh's goin' to the Suuuper Bowl, heeeeere we go..."
45: You don't miss a Steelers game and no matter how many times Ben, James, or Rashard say or do something stupid, you'll still live for every game, hoping to add to the illustrious winning tradition you've always known.
