Some Cleveland Browns season ticket holders, dissatisfied with a 1-7 start to the 2009 season, are trying to organize a “Brown Out” for the November 16 Monday Night Football game against the Baltimore Ravens, in which fans will refuse to appear in the stands until after the opening kickoff. The intent is to embarrass both the team and the league with a nationally-televised empty Cleveland Browns stadium, prompting action to improve the dismal team.

We at The Today News .com have come up with a counter-strategy for the NFL to ensure a full stadium at the game: Fly in the Baltimore Ravens Cheerleaders for a pre-game show! The cheerleader-deprived Browns fans won’t want to miss that entertainment opportunity! And we might just go to the game as well!

Sure the Pittsburgh Steelers are the reigning Super Bowl Champions, but in spite of all their team talent and their home-field sellout streak dating back to 1972, what is it that the Steelers are missing? Cheerleaders!

But the Pittsburgh Steelers are not alone. In fact, their Rust Belt compadres Cleveland Browns and Detroit Lions are also without cheerleaders! NFL fans in these cities would have to drive several hours to Buffalo to enjoy what most football teams, both professional and academic, take for granted as an integral part of the football experience.

Maybe the Browns can hire the Buffalo Jills to cheer for them when the Bills are playing away games…
