Cleveland Browns Franchise History[edit]

The Cleveland Browns timeline should have a gap from 96-98, not lead directly to the Baltimore Ravens franchise. I obviously understand that the team moved. However, the Baltimore Ravens history was established as a new franchise, while Browns records, team history, championships, etc. remained in Cleveland. The history related to the move is mentioned later in the article.

A similar example is the Charlotte Hornets. On the NBA Timeline, Charlotte Hornets franchise timeline is now considered part of the Charlotte Bobcats timeline. This is because the franchise history was transferred from New Orleans back to Charlotte. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.128.15.61 (talk) 14:45, 5 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Team name order[edit]

    IMO, the teams for each year should be in alphabetical order. Makes it easier to read. I see that some are in the position of their later more common name. The Boston Redskins, for example, are listed last like they would be if they were the Washington Redskins. Others seem to be listed last because they are new teams of some other strange reason. Others are just out order for no reason, like the Frankfort Yellow Jackets and the Green Bay Packers. They start out in the right order in 1924 & 25, but are reversed for 1926 & 27, before going back to the correct order for 1928 thru 30.Jdtrue63 (talk) 06:43, 12 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
