I keep seeing people in forum using the word 'overexaggerating'....its REDUNDANT, your already exaggerating!

I watched, unfortunately...The OU point guard went OFF, I think he finished with 38

I really hope we don't go with Delhomme. Hes old, he throws a lot of picks and he folds like a tent in big games.

Way to generalize all browns fans as drunken idiots.... If anyone deserves a super-bowl its browns fans, who have been loyal through years and years of terrible teams. And the ticket prices/concessions are comparable to any other NFL team.

pshhh. Kent State's taking it

windhurst just reported on cleve.bomb that we have agreed to term with the wizards in a 3 team deal...Looks like were getting Jamison

The Republicans are saying 'NO' to something. That's new :roll: Aren't these Federal funds? Why would the state not want to accept that?

What an excellent project. I cannot believe that we will be the FIRST in the country to deploy this technology.

KJP, I just read over your 3-C Mythbusters and I am becoming a believer. If similar systems have succeeded in metro's less dense than ours than there is no reason why it cannot work here. I would also like to remind people that while that trains may be slower than driving initially, at least that time can be used productively. Now if only the newspapers would take a more positive stance, the public might get behind this.

Ours is the only one starting from scratch. Like I've said before, all new rail services start modestly. If our system is the only one starting from scratch then why are we receiving the least amount of funding? The Florida line is getting 1.25 billion which is fine they have a larger population and more tourism, but Madison to Milwaukee is getting 800 million...really?

From cleve.com Ohio rail fans cheer, but questions remain about $400 million train line http://www.cleveland.com/open/index.ssf/2010/01/ohio_rail_fans_cheer_but_quest.html "The trains will reach a top speed of 79 miles an hour, but average about 40 miles an hour, Prendergast said." 40 mph is high speed? We don't have this already? I am NOT trying to be a pessimist about this, I AM A GREEN LOVIN, TREE HUGGER for god sakes and I want this to work badly, but I am not seeing the light yet...

KJP maybe you can help me with this.... I have been reading up about high speed rail systems proposed throughout different regions in the USA and the one in Ohio is by far the slowest. Why is this? ...I should say the rail system in the midwest appears to be the slowest.

Did we ever intend to promise that?

The initial speed of the train and the travel time do not bother me. I'll gladly give up an hour to not have be behind the wheel of my car, plus I can be productive in a train (on my computer and such) rather than being in almost comatose state driving down 71...The price of a one way ticket being 25.00 dollars is what bothered me. I make the trip from Cleveland to Columbus about twice a month which, according to the article, would cost me about 100 dollars. I cannot afford that.

'The passenger trains initially will run at 79 mph, transporting passengers from Cleveland to Columbus in about 3 hours for about $25 each way. As the rail corridor is improved, trains could travel as fast as 110 mph, Nicholson said.' As a resident with family in all 3 'C's' I am constantly making trips back and forth, from Cleveland to Columbus especially (about twice a month) but at 3 hours vs. 2 driving and 25.00 dollars each way, this doesn't seem very economical to me.

Those stories happen in every team. View the local paper. Um, the Saints, Colts and Vikings don't and most of the league has good to go with the bad. We do not.

Cleveland's landmark Public Auditorium is loaded with safety hazards, says MMPI as firm abandons plans to re-use it With Henry J. Gomez CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Public Auditorium is a public danger inside and out, a detailed analysis of its structure and systems suggests. Officials from MMPI Inc. explained the results of their evaluation of the 87-year-old city-owned building on Tuesday as they explained why they have dropped plans to incorporate much of it into the proposed merchandise mart and convention center.

Great pics May. I have family in Columbus and I feel your 71-South frustration...SUCH a boring drive (high speed train anyone?) and props to the grandpa's cheesebarn pic, classic

That was a great win yesterday, but I am still bitter about that loss to the pitts on Friday.

Thanks McCleveland, now i'm starving! It looks like the next episode of 'Dinner Impossible' is at the Rock Hall.

I'm into the Royal Bangs at the moment. This song is good. My favorite is called 'Waking up Wierd'

Yes, gloves were most definitely worn. I'd like to thank everyone for being so interested in the cleanups. I'm hoping we will be able to sneak one more before it gets crappy out, maybe at the end of this month.

I want to thank everyone that came out on Saturday, the cleanup was VERY successful. I hope we can shed light on the condition on the park/beach and begin to change it. Sorry it took so long to posts these I wasn't sure how to do it. ***Disclaimer - These were taking with my BlackBerry...These will not be MayDay Status, marco-level pictures, but I hope you enjoy them non the less! This is the what it looks like in front of EVERY parking spot I don't have words good enough for this one Back of the sewer overflow Front I think this used to be a garbage can There might be more black n mild filters than particles of sand... It did not take long to collect this much The bag's lovely contents This guy hated the liter too Lets end on a good note this is after all, an awesome park

Thanks to the people that can make it out today. 11:00-1:00, call Etheostoma if you need details.

where are you at MayDay??? I'm calling you out
