Fix It Friday: Cleveland Browns
For 2015 the Browns added a new logo, a brighter orange, and some significant uniform changes to their identity. What Nike has said about the uniform doesn’t add up for me; they’d make you think they felt obligated to honour tradition of a football team that resides in a blue-collar,
