ooooooh-tay!!


Perhaps I should stick to the Browns.

And perhaps not.



At least the Tribe has that key ingredient: A manger who can lose with bad teams and win it all with really,really good teams.The very hard part will now be to field a really,really good team.

The Indians front office is poster dyslexic.

They have gutted the farm system.

They would have to outrageously overpay for top free agents( and they need that type)....( and they won't overpay).


They're only realistic hope is to trade Choo(who won't bring a lot, a little....but not a lot), trade C-Perez ( he's like so gone anyway) and I do think they can get more for him.The only other possible worthy trade would be A-Cabrera.Really, for the holes they have they should trade him.For him, they could get a good deal....I would think.They do have some good field no hit ss's in the minors.


Otherwise, why even play next year?

I think that's the only immediate way to get to .450.

I got a huge kick out of C Perez this year. All his blather was simply a ploy to try to get himself traded. He could sit there and see who the pitchers were starting baseball games this year. Their best and most consistent starting pitcher was Zach McCalister and he really stunk. Bat was hideous this year and it looks like 2011 was actually the anomoly for him...sad. Of course as bad as Bat was, he was like Verlander compared to our favorite guy--OBALDO! Perez was doing everything he possibly could with every statement he made to try to get out of there. It was funny.

You ssssssssso got it about Perez!

If anyone was screaming, "Get me the fucl< out a heah!"....it was him.


There are people who claim Jiminez can still pay off while the two of the top 50 prospects we traded are trying to stay above water.

I'd reverse that trade any day.

I want Vic Power back....he really incensed Woody Hayes.

I just heard a report that Holmgren is out as Browns president (looking for a link).

new owner, new pres.

also saw that philly fired their dc. why would a coach move someone who was always coaching offense to defensive coordinator? reid needs to do something and soon, and improve that team, or he's gone too.

Mass firings at years end.

New GM,coaching staff....qb taken in round one and running back in two.Many trades for more draft picks.


This is so refreshing.
