  • The Relocation of the Cleveland Browns
    The Cultural Nexus of Sport and Business: The Relocation of the Cleveland Browns Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Andrew David Linden, B.A. Graduate Program in Education and Human Ecology The Ohio State University 2012 Thesis Committee: Dr. Melvin L. Adelman, Advisor Dr. Sarah K. Fields Copyright by Andrew David Linden 2012 Abstract On November 6, 1995, Arthur Modell announced his intention to transfer the Cleveland Browns to Baltimore after the conclusion of the season. Throughout the ensuing four months, the cities of Cleveland and Baltimore, along with Modell, National Football League (NFL) officials and politicians, battled over the future of the franchise. After legal and social conflicts, the NFL and Cleveland civic officials agreed on a deal that allowed Modell to honor his contract with Baltimore and simultaneously provided an NFL team to Cleveland to begin play in 1999. This settlement was unique because it allowed Cleveland to retain the naming rights, colors, logo, and, most significantly, the history of the Browns. This thesis illuminates the cultural nexus between sport and business. A three chapter analysis of the cultural meanings and interpretations of the Browns‘ relocation, it examines the ways in which the United States public viewed the economics of professional team sport in the United States near the turn of the twenty-first century and the complex relationship between the press, sports entrepreneurs and community. First, Cleveland Browns‘ fan letters from the weeks following Modell‘s announcement along with newspaper accounts of the ―Save Our Browns‖ campaign convey that the reaction of Cleveland‘s populace to Modell‘s announcement was tied to their antipathy toward the city‘s negative national notoriety and underscored their feelings toward the city‘s urban ii decline in the late 1990s.
