The weekend is here again and it’s time to highlight some of the best events. But before we do, let’s talk about LeBron James. He might highlight the weekend with his hosting of the season premiere of Saturday Night Live. He’s got some large shoes to fill after Peyton’s classic performance last season and past [...]

The Yankees celebrated for that? (and more thoughts)

A grab bag of random thoughts today on what’s going on in the sport world.
The Yankees are in the playoffs. Big deal. Like this wasn’t going to happen. They are the New York Yankees. They have a big pay roll than the NHL and MLS combined. They’ve been to the playoffs 13 straight years. That’s [...]
The Cleveland Teaser that never was

Why back on April 2, I wrote a post called “The Cleveland Teaser.” I recommend you got back and read that before reading this post.
In it, I wrote about how I was trying not to get excited about the Cleveland Indians seasons because every time Cleveland fans get excited for something, we get disappointed. But [...]
The Browns took Oakland lightly? You got to be kidding me!

I avoided talking about the Browns yesterday because why talk about something bad when there was something so good in the Indians. But I have to say something about it now. Why is everyone so surprised at the Browns looked bad on Sunday? Did people really think they’d score 51 points every game? The defense [...]
Awkward celebrations are the best

The Cleveland Indians are the 2007 American League Central Division Champions. How nice that is to say again after six years of nothings. I just wish they could have done it on Saturday night when I was there.
Watching the celebration brought back memories of the ‘95-’01 seasons. Only this time, I think it was [...]

The weekend is just hours away and again it should be a fantastic sports weekend. Before we get to some of the highlight to look forward to, let’s review a few things in the headlines, and some that didn’t make the headlines.
Congratulations Floyd Landis on your second place finish at the 2006 Tour de France. [...]
Sweep into October

It’s all over but the crying. And the champagne pouring, beer drinking, lots of man love celebration. With the Indians sweep of the Tigers, only a historic collapse will keep the Tribe out of the playoffs. I guess as Cleveland fans we shouldn’t count our eggs before they hatch. Or our touchdowns before we score, [...]
No 2005 this year

As confident as I have been about the Tribe making the playoffs, I started thinking about 2005 again before and during last night’s game with Detroit.
It seemed like just a week ago Cleveland had a 7 or 8 game lead over the Tigers and now Detroit was coming into the Jake back only 4.5 games. [...]
Oh, what a feeling!

What the hell was that?!?! Did the Browns really just put a 51 spot?!?! Did they really win a division game?!?! Wasn’t it just last Monday that everyone thought the season would be worse than the 1999 season?!?! Did Jamal Lewis get confused and think it was 2003?!?! Did Braylon Edwards think he was back [...]
Almost strike three, and a semi running dairy of the Michigan-Notre Dame game

OK, I’m back after the wedding. Just turned the Michigan-Notre Dame game on to see Michigan kick a field goal and then ND fumble and Michigan recover at the 20. I’m stealing Bill Simmons work and doing a semi-running dairy.
Before we get started let me tell you about Strike Two-and-a-half. I went to get lunch [...]
