CursedCleveland.com's Annual Halloween Post!  

Wednesday, October 31, 2007




First of all...here's a completely fictitious aol instant messenger conversation that eventually led to the our special Halloween relaunch of CursedCleveland.com.


IloveBraylon69: So
what's your
costume going to be?


2girls1cuplover:
I was thinking
either a registered sex offender or
LeBron's free throw shooting coach.


IloveBraylon69:
LeBron has a free
throw shooting coach?


2girls1cuplover:
Fine, registered
sex offender it is.


IloveBraylong69:
So you're
obviously going as yourself


2girls1cuplover:
You
got it.


IloveBraylong69:
Hey, remember that
unsuccessful site that we ran that not only wasted our time, but also our
reader's?


2girls1cuplover:
pregnantsororityvirgins.com?

IloveBraylon69:
The other
one


2girls1cuplover:
CursedCleveland.com?

IloveBraylon69:
Yep..let's
relaunch


2girls1cuplover: Sure.



So there you have it. Much has happened during our four-month hiatus. For one...many more terrible Cleveland sports blogs have started. I figured someone out there would at least stumble onto a creative and compelling format. Never once happened. Why would I want to read someone else's unfunny hack writing, when I have my own to fall back on?

So here's just a taste of the events that we may have missed, with an exhaustive bank of opinions and analysis to follow. Readers are encouraged to write in with more if they'd like more reaction.

LeBron plays well in the olympics: Technically everyone played well (except for Billups). Also, can idiot fans stop calling Rizzo's show with "Look how great LeBron played with a point guard! See.! That proves how good the Cavs could be with a point guard!" Oh really? Did we really need Team USA to prove this? We're just now finding out that all-star point guards are valuable? Also, EVERYONE played well on Team USA. So I'm not exactly sure why Cavs fan hang onto this egocentric view that only LeBron plays better with a point guard. Also - how about the fact that Kobe Bryant was on this team as well? Did that help anyones cause?

Indians go on amazing post-season run: Well, if we're prepared to call winning a 5 game series against a team of the brink of disbanding and then choking away three straight games in humiliating fashion, then I guess a "run" it is. Obviously it was exciting and they should be happy they got as far as they did - but let's be honest, unless the Dolans demonstrate a willingness to bring in free agents, then there's no guarantee this team every makes the playoffs again. See the ultimate misnomer in baseball is that spending money doesn't guarantee you anything. Not true. It guarantees you that the percentages are on your side for making the playoffs. And as we know, advancing in the MLB playoffs is about as skill-driven rock scissors paper.
