With apologies to Jock Callender and any other Cleveland Lumberjack that I may have watched on more than one occasion growing up, I grew up without a hockey team. To be honest, I never really missed it. I may have caught parts of a game from time to time when I left the TV on ESPN after...

We all have our calendars, even if we don’t look at them on a regular basis; we all know that it’s mid-May.  For most intents and purposes, it’s far too early to think about late September while we wait for what the summer of 2012 has to offer.  For the second year in a row, Cleveland...

There aren’t really that many nice things to say about the 2011 Cleveland Browns, but a conversation about the performance of one Phillip Taylor could be a pleasant one for Browns fans.  Sure, we’ve all had our moments of frustration with the big guy from Baylor, especially an...

Hoy hoy. I live in Phoenix, and I will not apologize for that. Aside from family and some of the greatest friends anyone could ever as for, I didn’t leave much behind in Cleveland.  I had just turned 23, and I was living in a college town where I wasn’t a college student.  I had...

In the aftermath of the NFL Draft, and really for the duration of the NFL’s off-season, I keep hearing talks of the Cleveland Browns fixing what’s broken.  While I am all for righting the ship that’s been off course for a very long time, I’m afraid to inform you that what’s going on...

After a rough start at home, and an opportunity to gain their footing with their first road series against a not-ready-for-primetime Kansas City Royals team, the Cleveland Indians are officially playing .500 baseball for the first time this season.  However, plenty of questions remain; above...

It’s just too early, a mere four games in, to make any kind of judgment.  That should go without saying, but it’s hard to resist a snap decision on even the smallest of sample sizes.  A year ago, the Red Sox left Cleveland with an 0-6 record, and it took miraculous collapse in the end to...

This year, I decided, was as good as any to skip the whole thing.  I didn’t fill out a bracket, which meant I wasn’t obsessing over things that mid-major powerhouses did well enough to scoot past a high-major with a mediocre basketball resume.  I wasn’t beating myself up over the...

It was like having the golden ticket.  I mean, this was something that they hadn’t done before, and there we were participating.  All we had to do was apply.  It’s all part of the social media, and if you don’t embrace it, you’ll get left behind.  How true that is, I really don’t...

We had a preview of something to look forward to.  Then things got exciting and intense, which was immediately followed by scary.  Ultimately, it was just sad and painful to watch.  So, went the life and death of the Peyton Hillis era in Cleveland.  By the time it had ended, we...
