The Jets one is great, but ours is the only one that actually promotes the team. A brow beating is still a beating, after all.

I think its more of a meta joke as DJ Gallo, one of the other Page 2 writers is always making unibrow jokes. I agree that its one of the few that a fan of the team would wear.

Haha! Great stuff!

Like others have said, the Ravens's shirt is one that the fans could actually wear. A bunch of them were knocks on the team, but they were funny.

I actually laughed out loud at the Seattle one.

I have a weird sense of humor.

The Cleaveland one is priceless.

Oh, yeah, I meant to mention that one, too!

And the Jets one that someone else mentioned.

Too many good ones to remember them all...

some of them are beyond me.. can someone explain "greg paulus" and the vikings?.. before looking it up, i'm guessing he's a retired player.. like Favre

and at first, i wasn't sure about our "brow beating", but then i realized, that's just baltimore, we all do it including me. "To intimidate or subjugate by an overbearing manner or domineering speech"

Wow, you really don't get the brow beating? They're talking about Flacco's uni-brow.

Actually, the brow beating one was a play on words - it's the definition you gave, but I think it also refers to comments about Flacco's unibrow - that's what makes it funny.

But, like you, some of them were over my head, including the one you mentioned.

Oops, didn't refresh the page before answering - sorry!

Greg Paulus is likely to be a highly drafted QB next year - if all goes well for him in his final season in college.
