Cleveland Browns Poll: Brownie the Elf is barely favored as primary logo
By Randy Gurzi
The Cleveland Browns have been paying some tribute to their old school look and a Twitter poll shows fans slightly favor Brownie the Elf as the primary logo
The Cleveland Browns have one of the most bland logos in the league. It’s simply a helmet. A plain, orange helmet with a brown stripe.
It’s nothing flashy and that’s fine. But the truth is, some would prefer something a little different. Perhaps that’s why the team has started to tinker with things just a little bit.
Currently on the team’s official website, there’s a prominent logo featured at the top showing their old-school logo ‘Brownie the Elf.’ Next to it is the words “Est. 1946.”
The Browns aren’t being shy about throwing things into the way-back machine as Brownie is even featured on their 2018 Training Camp logo, which was recently tweeted out — along with the note that 15 practices will be open to the public.
Personally, I love the old-school look. Brownie may not be current, but it reminds us of the strong history of the team, and the days when they were a much stronger franchise in terms of winning. According to our readers, they also prefer the logo, but only slightly.
In a Twitter poll, 57 percent of the fans responding saiid that they did actually prefer the old logo as the primary option for the Browns.
It was a small sample size, so this is in no way definitive. However, we are all aware that many were unhappy with the most recent change to the team’s uniform and there”s a chance a change could be coming in the near future.

Maybe the powers that be are throwing Brownie out there to see how fans respond. So those of you who are into the early look of this beloved franchise, let your voice be heard. Maybe the team will hear it.
