Cleveland Curse
Being a Cleveland Fan is all about “next year”

Browns need a corner
- May
- 30
The Plain Dealer reported yesterday that the Browns were exploring a trade with Buffalo for Ashton Youbouty. I think that this would be great. Mel Tucker has proven himself as a DB coach, and he coached Youbouty while he was a DB at the Ohio State Universtity. I think our corner situation looks good with Wright [...]
boring time of year

Wow, what a rough time to be a cleveland sports fan. Cavs are done, Browns are weeks away, and the Tribe is playing poorly. It makes me less interested in posting every day. What am I supposed to do keep posting “The Tribe lost again”??? Obviously they have to hit. But what about trades? I [...]
Mock Draft

The ESPN Mock Draft has the Cavs taking Kosta Koufous from the Ohio State University. More importantly it says that Michael Redd will be available in a trade this off season. Delonte West and Daniel Gibson are the only guys I wouldn’t trade, however I would trade one of them, not both of them, if [...]
Optimism despite the CURSE
- May

Daven Holly is out for the year. The Browns have signed Terry Cousin. The Curse is still active that’s for sure. It looks like our starting cornerbacks will be Brandon McDonald and Eric Wright. I feel pretty good about them. More importantly I feel pretty good about Mel Tucker. I hope you know who he [...]
Tribe is not dead yet
- May

Despite how bad they have looked during the offensive drought I will say it again, they are one hot streak away from being in first place. Ben Francisco is hot so hopefully it will catch on with the rest of the team. It was nice to see Cliff Lee pitch well last night and get [...]
6 losses in a row
- May
- 23
That means that every starter has had a chance to win and be that stopper. No one has. Mostly because the pathetic offense hasn’t given anyone the chance to win. 1, 2, 1, 4, 2, 3, that is the runs the Indians have scored in each game of the 6 game losing streak. Prior to [...]
It’s tribe time….please?

CC pitched well. But once again, the offense was non existent. Since the AL Central basically sucks, they are still only one nice hot month from guaranteeing themselves a playoff spot. I think that if this season has shown us anything it is that Mark Shapiro is on the hot seat. No worry about being fired, I think [...]
How long do you give a coach
- May
- 21
I realize some coaches get fired after one year, but in general how long does an NBA team give a coach to show he was the right guy to hire? Basically you can be assured of two years. Very rarely does a coach get fired after his first season. Usually there have been extenuating when [...]
Who to root for
- May
- 20
Now that the Cavs have cleaned out their lockers the question is who do we root for now? Actually the bigger question is do we even bother to watch the rest of the playoffs anyways? Assuming we do, I’m rooting for Boston. That’s right, the team that just knocked us out. Let me tell you [...]
The Curse is in Full Effect…
- May

Even though I am not the world’s biggest basketball fan, I am one of the bigger fans of Cleveland Sports (and not just in size). As a big fan of Cleveland Sports last night’s loss to Boston made me sick. On many levels. First, Jason told me something that was definitely true in this series… [...]
