Seriously. Cleveland, OH, USA = Sports Hell.

if you don't know what I'm talking about check the NFL injury list or something. I seriously cannot believe that what just happened has happened.

Cleveland is indeed pro sports hell. Bentley was one of the biggest signings of the FA period.

I also consider it just regular ol' hell as well.

I live in Europe and am interested in American sports more than European ones. If I want to watch MLB or NFL, I have to watch it in the middle of the night, unless it's the afternoon game on the east coast, and I can it early evening here. West coast games just don't happen. And as for going to games, thats my annual vacation.

Now thats hell! :lol:

well, there's a reason they call it "The Mistake By The Lake".

At least now we have LeBron. Just a few more months until NBA camp opens up. :D

I don't know man, at least the estuary across from the airport is nice to look at in the Summertime in Philly and the teams seem to be competitive most of the time.

I mean, it's Cleveland. It dosen't get much worse. They lost thier football franchise to Baltimore, and the only shot they got at a World Series title in the last two decades was won by Atlanta, who couldn't get out of the way of themselves to beat anyone else in the early or late 1990's or hell even the beginning of this century.

They finally get thier franchise back, and they get an asshole TE from Miami who instantly injures himself and then compounds his stupidity, they have a good WR who hasn't had much time yet, they finally get help in some need areas, and they lose the anchor of their O line instantaneously.

It's like saying, hell well, ok another 6-10 guys.

If there is a sports hell, it's erected right next to the Rock in Roll Hall of Fame.

SEATTLE SPORTS ARE WORSE.

M's no world series.

Sonics last title in the late 70's and probably moving.

Seahawks made their first super bowl but will choke this year. Alexander is done. Madden jinx.

The Cavs have never made the NBA Finals

The Indians haven't won in nearly 60 years

The Browns have the only title for the city in the last 50 years and that came before there even was a Super Bowl.

Don't forget 1997 when they were leading Game 7 in the ninth inning only to have Jose Mesa blow it.

Yeah, I'd say it's safe to say that Cleveland wins this competition.

cleveland doesnt even have a hockey team. sure, their teams usually blow, but philly teams are usually good and always fucking lose in the championship game or in the playoffs.

whatever, after the super bowl there will be no argument about cleveland being the worst

I still don't see it. Cleveland lost it's football team and then saw them win a SB. This is worse than anything that's happened to the Eagles. And the Indians lost a lead in the 9th inning of game 7 of the WS (this is worse than the '93 WS IMO).

yeah, you're right, losing the football team is probably the worst thing that can happen to a sports city, i'm gonna have to agree w/ you. but still, its brutal here, the whole area was on suicide watch after the eagles lost the super bowl
