i was afraid to read this post

im a huge indians fan........


reason for each leaving:

1. belle greed......best indian batter of all time
2. thome....his favorite coach and mentor was fired(charlie manuel)
3. lofton....greed the 1st time......sucked the second
4. Greedy piece of shiot....fits the belle mold
5. both alomars were at the end
6. omar c #5


They have been a major disappointment this year. Doesnt help that chi sox are on a tear to end all tears. This is a great team to start betting on(they are low and can get some good value)

Belle was truly beyond a shadow of a doubt the best hitter of my lifetime.....Many was great and still is no doubt.and yes better than barry for about a 4-6 year span

:lolBIG: I use to root for Cleveland when Eddie Murray went to them...at the age of 39 Eddie led all righthanded hitters in baseball in batting average while with Cleveland in 1995....The 95 team was one of the best offensive teams in MLB history...Belle Murray Thome Manny Baerga Lofton Sorrento Alomar :suomi: :suomi: :suomi: :suomi: :suomi: :suomi:

The 1995 bteam won 100 games in a 144 game season (100-44)

Yes they are down now, but before the year is out I believe they will play some good ball with some decent starting pitchers and a lineup once it matures a bit will make some noise. They will not make the playoffs but will be good betting value down the road

I follow Cleveland as much as I do Detroit, I get coverage of both where I live..

There is main reason the indians have fell, and thats ownership.

the previous owner, Dick Jacobs, put talent on the field, and sold out every game...and becauseof that he was able to bring in pricey veterans...

New owner Larry Dolan, has it backwards..he wants the fans to come out and sell out every game FIRST...then he will spend money. wont happen.

Another thing was all the young talent in the mid to late 90's that they traded away for rent-a-players late in the season..

Brian Giles, Sean Casey, Richie Sexson, Danny Graves (used to be good),

They had to take the last 3 years to restock the minors..

They have a nice core of young guys in Hafner, Martinez, Crisp, Sizemore, Sabathia, Westbrook, Lee


But fish is right, they fell fast... to go from 455 straight sellouts, to getting 18k a game is sad and inexusable... the fans are there dying to support a conetender...but ownership wont open the wallet.

This thread has a lot of great logos in it. Gotta love Journey's and the Chief Wahoo logo. The Patroit logo I have never seen before.
