Well, Wikipedia is far from an accurate source, but I was always wondering about it.

In reality, the Ravens are the original Browns. Just as we're formerly from Boston and called the Braves.

I guess they don't want to offend the people of Cleveland any more than they're already been, but the new Browns are an expansion team.

If the new Houston franchise decided to be the Oilers instead of Texans, they'd be a new franchise too.
