who wouldn't want a guy who threw the fans, the manager, and the font office under the bus in one season?

you know, that train station is unsightly. They should move it or plant some trees in front of it, or something.

Speaking of names, I am in favor of changing the Wiz back to the bullets. Also, the SuperSonics need to make a return.

no, they were apart of the league expansion in 1988 which also ushered in lame names such as heat and magic. They should have a voodoo-themed name or something. how about the Ragin' Cajuns?

Cleveland Guardians Discussion
I would prefer we were in a situation where we didn't need to rely on an unlikely and unexpected turnaround to get any production from our hitters. sure, they might turn out alright and i'll be proven wrong. If they don't get people who can put the bat on the ball, it will not matter how good bauer is because three runs a game will be a feat for the lineup. The tribe may have made out on this particular deal, but, when i look at how this fits into the offseason as a whole, I don't understand going after two strikeout machines this offseason. also, nobody can convince me they wont deal Cabrera for prospects, making the team even more offensively challenged. I also wonder if our front office is actually a deterrent to signing talent. Who would want to waste their career on a team that is always rebuilding? I am, however, obviously biased so my feelings on this trade comes from a pessimistic position. I don't think the tribe will ever be competitive with Dolan as the owner.

Reds fans, is Stubbs as bad as I fear?

Cleveland Guardians Discussion
If stubbs and reynolds are in the lineup together, they will combine for 320 strikeouts with a .213 and .221 average, respectively. The indians batted .250 last year and, in the past week, get rid of one of their good hitters and acquire two hitters hovering around the Mendoza line. Wait till they trade cabrera for a ham sammich and see how 'complete' this lineup actually is. I am past the point of believing Dolan is actually interested in creating a good product.

I think dynamism is more important than the architecture. They are doing a pretty good job in creating a bustling area.

Cleveland: Downtown: The 9 / Rotunda / County Admin Development
Prospect is quietly gaining some steam in terms of redevelopment. The casino, the new restaurants around east fourth, the county headquarters, the hanna apartments. we may need a 'filling in prospect ave' thread soon.

I know there are some games to play, but what would a 7-9 record, 3-3 in division, and a steelers sweep buy pat and/or tom?

Cleveland Cavs Discussion
I think he has at four more years of solid production with two or three years of diminishing value. If the cavs can make the playoffs next year, he could still be a key player if the team can improve consistently over the next three years.

considering that the building is completely empty, the effect will basically be like building a new thirty story building on euclid.

The Official *I Love Cleveland* Thread
here was a travel guide on Cleveland coining out of Pittsburgh in anticipation of last Sunday's game. Its interesting to see what visitors recommend On the road with the Steelers: Cleveland By Gretchen McKay / Pittsburgh Post-Gazette nov 18, 2012 CLEVELAND -- Once derided as "the Mistake on the Lake" -- the Cuyahoga River, which runs through the center of town, famously caught fire in 1969 because of its rampant pollution -- Ohio's second largest city is on a serious upswing. A growing foodie destination with a landmark public market and a lively arts community (the Playhouse Square Center is the second-largest performing arts center in the U.S.), there's plenty of fun in store for the weekend traveler. So much, in fact, that Travel and Leisure named it one of America's "favorite cities" in 2009 for affordability and its rockin' music scene: in addition to one of the world's best-known music museums, it boasts a renowned orchestra Read More at: http://www.post-gazette.com/stories/life/travel/on-the-road-with-the-steelers-cleveland-662601/

Cleveland: Downtown: Jack Cleveland Casino - Phase 2
This isn't an issue of funding. It is being delayed for different reasons than those projects. I realize there are geographic hurdles, but I had expected them to come out with something more substantial than, "we wouldn't spend all that money and not build," by now. They have released no timetable, no renderings. Gilbert's tweet was the first time he's even mentioned it in some time. Don't get me wrong, I do believe he will build it and I do trust Gilbert, but I wonder why he hasn't engaged in some kind of dialogue about this. It gives the dubious a platform to stand on.

the instant you start getting ready for work, you're on the clock. so if you have to wake up at six and commute to get to work by 9, leave at five and get home at six, you just worked for twelve hours, not eight.

I really think the league needs to get out of the sunbelt. retract and work from a core that actually makes money.

Cleveland Browns Discussion
agree. he doesn't go for it on fourth on indy's 40 two weeks ago, but does when there are four minutes and two time outs left on own thirty? Also, three timeouts spent today because of subs/not getting play in. Who's fault is that?

because other leagues make more money.
