Description
Book SynopsisAttention Browns fans! Test and expand your knowledge of the Browns and its greatest players—Jim Brown, Otto Graham, Paul Warfield, Lou Groza, and more! Rather than merely posing questions (and giving answers), here are stories that bring to life players and coaches, games and seasons.This book is divided into four parts, with progressively more difficult questions in each new section. The Practice Squad section contains the most basic questions. Next comes the Starter and Pro Bowl sections, followed by the biggest challenge: the Hall of Fame.
Along the way, you’ll learn more about the great Browns players and coaches of the past and present, from Otto Graham, Lou Groza, and Marion Motley, to Jim Brown, Bobby Mitchell, Brian Sipe, Paul Warfield, Leroy Kelly, Ozzie Newsome, Bernie Kosar, Greg Pruitt, Earnest Byner, Joe Delamielleure, Paul Brown, and so many more. Some of the many questions that this book answers include:
- When the Browns became members of the AFC Central Division in 1970, what were the three other teams in the division?
- I was Mike Phipps’s backup with the Browns in 1973. I had been mainly a reserve quarterback for Green Bay and Denver prior to that. Who am I?
- Who returned two kickoffs for touchdowns in a 41¬–34 victory over the Chiefs in Kansas City on December 20, 2009?
- The Browns have beaten both Super Bowl participants in the same season once. What year did they accomplish this unusual feat?
This book makes the perfect gift for any fan of the Cleveland Browns!
