Hahaha Browns .... No thanks, but I do agree about getting out of Ohio! I'm an LA fanboy for pretty much all sports because my family is from that area and I inherited all my dads teams!
I'm sure your intro is going to be great, I'm looking forward to reading it!
I'd have to say that the best thing I learned while traveling was that I'm not a burden to others. That other people have the same feelings that I do and going out and being a part of the crowd and community was a great way for me to start putting myself out there even more.
