BEREA, Ohio -- Joe Haden reached his limit when he saw that a computer simulation this week had the University of Alabama beating the Cleveland Browns 34-0.The simulation, run by Bleacher Report, was funny to some.It wasnt to the defensive back Haden or any of his Browns teammates, who have struggled through a winless season in Cleveland.Comparing a college team to an NFL team -- its disrespectful, Haden said Friday.Late-night talk show hosts Jimmy Fallon and Stephen Colbert are having fun at the Browns expense, and a fan is planning a Perfect Season Parade if the team finishes 0-16.Ive never been in a situation like this where were literally the laughingstock of every joke, Haden said.Haden voiced the frustration felt by every player and coach in a long and difficult season. The Browns are trying to avoid becoming the second team in NFL history to go 0-16, and every loss takes a piece out of everyone.A Browns fan named Chris McNeil has planned the parade around FIrstEnergy Stadium. McNeil has met with the city of Cleveland about permits and as of Friday, 4,500 accounts had checked going on the parades Facebook page.Its terrible, Haden said. Youre talking about an 0-16 parade. ... Its very, very tough. It hits you right between the eyes. Because Im on the team, theres something I can do about it.The simulated game, to him, was the worst thing Ive ever seen.Thats a smack in the face, Haden said. It makes you very upset. Thats just a slap in the face. It doesnt make any sense. Alabama is great. Theyve got amazing players. Theyve got players who are going to play in the NFL. Weve got a team full of NFL guys.Players have seen coach Hue Jackson nearly break down at a postgame news conference when he called being 0-12 the hardest thing ever.Running back?Duke Johnson merely shook his head and said there was no way to put into words what its like to be 0-12. Andrew Hawkins tried.Its different, the receiver said.Hawkins doesnt pay attention to the external noise. He said he wasnt aware of the late-night jokes or the parade.Appreciate the update, he said with a smile.Once he heard of the simulated score against the Crimson Tide, Hawkins simply said, Sweet.Haden said he cant watch sports highlights or almost any game without hearing a Browns joke.And youre hearing it from everywhere, Haden said. Everybody is giving it to you. Theres nothing you can do but go win. Theres nothing that can change this but winning. Until we get that changed, were going to be the laughingstock.Haden has made Cleveland his home and is well-liked in the community, but he said hes not going out in public these days.Why would I go out? Haden said. Everybody in Cleveland, they recognize me. Im a professional athlete in the city of Cleveland. When its not the season, Im hanging out. Its just so much easier to be able to talk. But now, theres really nothing to say.Sunday will make 364 days since the Browns last won a game, a 24-10 victory over the?San Francisco 49ers?on Dec. 13, 2015. That victory came with Johnny Manziel at quarterback. The only way to avoid going winless for a full year would be to beat the Bengals on Sunday.But Haden does not see that as motivation.Theres no more sources of motivation, bro, Haden said. We keep losing all the games. You have to win a game. No other ulterior motivation can make you go harder, play harder, do anything.Its like were getting slapped in the face. Our coach ... We got to go get a win for him. We lost 364 days in a row. We got to get a win.We havent won a preseason game this season. We havent won anything. Its like, we keep losing. You got to go out and win.

TORONTO -- As the puck gently trickled over Finlands goal line for an empty-net tally with 2.6 seconds remaining in regulation, Team Sweden goaltender Henrik Lundqvist raised his arms in celebration and gave a fist pump like no one was watching him.Truth be told: All eyes are on the 34-year-old netminder.This game, this 2-0 win symbolized more than just a World Cup of Hockey victory. So many questions have surrounded Lundqvist since the end of the 2015-16 NHL regular season. Many wondered if hes nearing the end of an incredible career. The offseason was unlike any he had experienced in the past. He spent it preparing for this best-on-best tournament in the hope that he could rejuvenate his career for the New York Rangers.Well, Lundqvist proved on Tuesday that he should still be considered a world-class goalie. He was outstanding in a 36-save, shutout performance over Finland.Obviously, it was an important game for me, Lundqvist said. You try to build your game, but at the same time, you have to make sure youre helping your team. Its an important game. You cant just go out there and try to feel good and start building your game. Its too late for that. I had two [preseason] games to do that, and now its for real. You just try to be really focused and do your best out there.During the last World Cup preseason game against Team Europe in Washington, D.C., Lundqvist struggled, allowing five goals on 22 shots before he was pulled midway through the third period. Even though it appeared to be a terrible performance, Lundqvist maintained afterward that he was able to accomplish a lot in that game to prepare for the tournament. It didnt help when he did not play the first official game against Russia on Sunday because he had the flu. Instead, backup Jacob Markstrom played and led Sweden to a 2-1 victory with a 27-save performance.Lundqvist participated in the teams full practice on Monday and said afterward that he would be ready for Finland. There was no way he would miss what could be his last chance to face Swedens rival in international competition. On Tuesday, he flashed the pads and dazzled with his glove en route to a victory over the Finns -- and Sweden improved to 2-0 in this tournament.He was just awesome out there,?Loui Eriksson?said. Made some really good saves for us. He looked like the Hank weve seen before. Great game. Important for us.Like his teammates, Lundqvist takes a lot of pride in playing for the national team. He has won Olympic gold (2006) and silver (2014) and hopes to lead his country to another international victory in this tournament.Thats why hes one of the top goalies in the world, said Sweden coach Rikard Gronborg. He played an excellent game and gave us a chance to win. We knew coming into the tournament hes a top goalie, a piece of the puzzle for us to advance. If we are going to advance in the tournament, he has to be on. He gives a certain kind of stability. As coaches we know we can count on him.Before the tournament, Finnish prospect Patrik Laine, who is considered a pure goal scorer with a laser-like shot, said it didnt matter which ggoalie was in the net because all he wants to do is score goals.dddddddddddd He fired five shots at Lundqvist on Tuesday, but the veteran netminder stopped them all.We had many good scoring chances, but he was playing awesome in the net, so we couldnt score, Laine said. When you dont score any goals its hard to win a game. We were playing pretty well, but the right team won.Laines best scoring chance of the game came with 40.2 seconds remaining in the second period. Finland was on the power play when Laine unleased a one-timer from the top of the left faceoff circle. It was a precise shot to the top right corner, but Lundqvist snared it with a highlight-reel glove save.The puck was bouncing, so it was good I got a shot off from that pass, but I think I had a pretty good shot. Hes a good goalie and he got it and thats the deal, Laine said.Since Lundqvist is likely still not 100 percent, the question will be: Should he play on Wednesday against Team North America? Its not a throw-away game for Sweden. If it was, especially given the way Markstrom played on Sunday, then Lundqvist could be given the day off, but thats not the case now. Lundqvist needs to play. Itll be interesting to see how he responds to playing two games in less than 24 hours.Lundqvist said after Tuesdays game that he felt better both physically and mentally, and that he had more energy before the game than hed had the last few days because of the flu. Lundqvist admitted he felt a bit rusty in the first period against Finland but was able to settle in as the game progressed -- so yes, hell be ready to play against the high-powered young guns on Wednesday. Will he get to?I hope so. I havent talked to the coach yet, but I want to go, he said. Its an important game. Were not in [the semifinals] yet. But he makes the call.Plus, hell likely face a ton of shots given Team North Americas high-paced play so far.Were playing a team with a lot of skill, and they move the puck more side-to-side than maybe the Finns do, Lundqvist said. The Finns go pretty straight to the net and try to create rebounds and chances like that, so its going to be a great challenge for me and for the team tomorrow.No matter how this tournament ends for Sweden, if Lundqvist can continue to play like he did against Finland and build his game in preparation for his season with the Rangers, itll be interesting to see if he can regain his Vezina-worthy ability.Hes had a great career in the NHL, and hes a great goalie, said Finland goalie Tuukka Rask, who also played well and finished with 28 saves in the loss. Hes been at the top for many, many years, so hopefully I can do the same.Theres only one thing missing from Lundqvists resume and thats a Stanley Cup. His performance on Tuesday showed he still has the ability to compete at an elite level. It was the type of performance that could lead to great things during the 2016-17 season.Its good for your confidence when you play a game like this, Lundqvist said. ' ' '
