Posted By: <b>jay behrens</b><p>how do you define semi-pro? There have been minor league teams as long as there have been major league teams.<br /><br />And although the Browns were horrible that year, they weren't the worst team in the majors. That honor goes to the Boston Braves.<br /><br />Jay<br /><br />I like to sit outside, drink beer and yell at people. If I did this at home I would be arrested, so I go to baseball games and fit right in.
