From Bill Simmons' latest NFL Power Poll:
32. Cleveland
First, the Cavs choke in the 2009 playoffs. Second, the best two starters on the 2008 Indians start Game 1 of the 2009 World Series for two teams not named "Cleveland." Third, the Browns clean house and hire Eric Mangini, who takes that same house and sets it on fire with a flame thrower. Fourth, what could end up being LeBron's final Cavs season was distinguished early by Shaq looking like a bald Aretha Franklin and LeBron's body language occasionally lapsing into "I can't wait to find a new team, I am tired of playing with crap teammates" mode. And fifth, there are two nights of star-studded concerts to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame -- located in Cleveland, as you know -- and those concerts happen at Madison Square Garden.
Here's my question, God: What did Cleveland do to You?

ReplyDeleteSerach - living with two brothers has taught me that, somehow, with guys, there's ALWAYS time for sports (magically. even when there is no time for things like lunch).
ReplyDeleteHee hee. Can't stop laughing.
ReplyDeleteWhen I saw this on the site I wanted to email it to you, then thought it might be too cruel.
ReplyDeletefu&*$#g Simmons - I hope the Celtic and Patriot charters collide in mid-air.
ReplyDeleteI'm trying to figure out how one even decides which of the Boston teams to hate the most. I mean, there's so much there to be sick of at this point.
ReplyDeleteAnd now our one local bank has been bought out by New Yorkers!
