HAFNER AND THE TRIBE.....if the Indians had done this earlier in the season (dominate vastly inferior competition), maybe they'd still be within shouting distance of contention. Again, as we always say in Cleveland, wait till next year. As for Pronk, if he played in New York, Boston, Chicago, or another big market, how much attention would he get? Look at his numbers the past 2-3 years; very comparable to Mr. Ortiz in Boston. More to come on this at a future date...
The Browns....I still have Thursday's game at Philly in my TiVo; I will share some thoughts after I watch the game.
Roger Brown...I swear, all this no talent hack ever does is look for anyone to offer up any kind of criticism about Cleveland or Ohio State, and he will gladly
post it. Yeah, maybe OSU will not finish #1. But to cite Lee Corso?! WTF? I know absolutely no one who watched Gameday for the intellect and insights of Mr. Corso. I thought he was the comic relief after Herbstreit. And yes, we know this has been a very disappointing season, but does it not seem that Roger has an almost personal vendetta against Shapiro (and any other local team)? As for locking up young players before having many accomplishments, it worked in the early to mid 90's, in Cleveland! The issue here does not seem to be talent evaluation, but a lack of spending, initiative, or balls from ownership.
