Coping With Loss. The Story of a Cleveland Fan

 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WlEqLwVARuY

Its hard to be a Cleveland Fan. Fuck that! It’s torture and excrutiatingly painful to be a Cleveland Fan. Why does the sun never shine on us? Everytime we have a shot at a championship something always gets in the way. I’m not even going to get into the past. Its well known what has happened to us and doesn’t need to be talked about. What the Fuck!  What did we do to deserve this? This is Fucking Bullshit and I’m Fucking sick of it. Every year I hope and pray and remain optimistic about our chances of winning a championship. Every year I am disapointed. I’m Fuckin 43 years old and I am sick of this shit! 

Thats why it is so important that Cleveland finnally wins a title this year . To give a Big FUCK YOU! to all the assholes that have everything and want more. Can’t we have one Fucking moment in the Sun for Crying out loud. New York has won multiple championships in the past 40 years.  Boston! Fucking Boston has championships from all of there teams. L.A. multiple championships. Hell every major and mid major market in the country has won something except for Cleveland. And now people want our only hope to leave.

I was raised during the 70’s when Cleveland was the butt of every joke. I was raised to believe that this place wasn’t a total shithole that the rest of the country made it out to be. Our teams were our badge of honor and were something that represented us. Yeah they sucked. The Tribe was horrible in the 70’s. The Cavs were mostly bad , except for a couple years and the Browns didn’t get it together until 1979. Since then each of these teams has had a shot at a title or two. All have ended in Disapointment.  Now Sports are Media driven. It’s Big money and smaller markets like Cleveland are often overlooked. Baseball wants everyone to believe that everything revolves around 6 or 7 teams. The Yankees, Mets, Red Sox, Phillies, Cubs, Angels and Dodgers.  Now the rest of the Nation wants us to believe that we are not worthy of having a player like LeBron James. They think that the sport would be better off if he were in New York of L.A. Well if that happens I will have no choice but to give up sports because its never going to happen for us. Even if it does happen. Will it change my life? No probably not, but it would give me some kind of closure about the pain of the past.
