State of the Union Address

Well this is my first post in a very long time so cut me some slack, I’m just filling in here. I believe in short, sweet, to the point and very non-W and Scott posts. So as a nice warmer upper a short overview of the 3 major Cleveland sports teams. Here we go…

BROWNS

OK this is bad. Like, really really bad. 0-3!? Really? Only two teams in the modern era of football have made the playoffs after an 0-3 start and both of them lost in the first round. What a disappointment. Every aspect of this team is crap right now. All the questions coming into this season have been answered. Can the Browns handle the high expectations of a decent 07 season and 5 nationally televised games? No. Was keeping DA the right choice? Nope. Did Romeo deserve a contract extension after one decent season. Not at all. Can the defense improve? Actually I don’t think the D has been that bad, its the O that sucks right now. At least the Indians season wasn’t completely over after the first three weeks. And speaking of the Tribe…

INDIANS

Don’t look now but the Tribe isĀ 1 game above .500! Looks like Beanie was right. Yeah I know everybody (Including myself) predicted playoffs and World Series but hey, give this team some credit. They never really gave up and have been busting their butts all the way to the end of the season. Give Wedge some credit for actually getting these guys to play after:

“Star” DH lies about an “injury”(we still don’t know what was really wrong with him) and goes down for basically the entire season.

All-Star catcher tries playing through an injury and also basically goes down for the entire season.

#2 Pitcher done for a year plus.

#1 Best Pitcher in baseball traded.

Clubhouse guy Casey Blake traded.

Porno addict Byrd traded.

I’ll cut the front office, manager and players some slack this year. Sure there are question marks all over the field for next year but guess what? You heard it here first – Tribe = 09 World Series Champs!

Cavs

Training camp is right around the corner right? After this seasons Tribe and Browns my expectations are rock bottom for this team. I do believe anything is possible with LeBron James on your team. Including him leaving Cleveland for New York. More on that next time.
