Jerome Harrison Injured
February 20, 2008 by
Cleveland Sports Insider
| Comments
Just joking. But it's bound to happen soon, right? Ever since the Browns 20-16 win over the Lions, everybody's been talking about this rookie, Jerome Harrison. Even Jerome Harrison himself. Why, you ask? Well, when you put up numbers like that as a 5th round pick, your bound...
Crennel's Future in Question?
February 11, 2008 by
Cleveland Sports Insider
| Comments
It has come to my attention that many Browns fans feel a change is in order. Apparently, Romeo Crennel doesn't have many fans. Granted, he may not be the second coming. In fact, I know he's not. But I also know that a neither a new front office nor a coach is going to make...
Oh. My. God Strikes Again. Ephraim Suspended
February 10, 2008 by
Cleveland Sports Insider
| Comments
Last Season, Alfonzo Ephraim was with the Dolphins. And the two years prior to that... the Eagles. Over his three seasons in the NFL, he had missed a total of 5 games. He comes to Cleveland. And as fate would have it, he is about to double that stat, and the season hasn't even...
Tribe Tarnishes Halos, Wins 14-2
February 04, 2008 by
Cleveland Sports Insider
| Comments
Or. More like... 'extinctified them' (that's my word of the day). It started early, and continued late. Just 5 pitches into the game, the Angels starter, Ervin Santana was struck to the ground on a Jason Michaels line drive. Oddly, he was credited with the loss.By the top...
Peralta in the Doghouse
January 28, 2008 by
Cleveland Sports Insider
| Comments
Supposedly, Wedge simply wanted to take a good look at Hector Luna. It had nothing to do with Jhonny Peralta's performance this year. It's all a big misunderstanding.Any way you put it, Peralta was a bystander in three games this week, seeing no action whatsoever. And according...
Sowers Last Stand
January 26, 2008 by
Cleveland Sports Insider
| Comments
Maybe he put a tad more pressure on himself. Maybe the Royals were just seeing the ball well. Maybe, heaven forbid, Jeremy Sowers is human. The Tribe had decided that this would be his last start for the season, and it appears that it was the right time to do so. He went five, threw...
Suggs Fails the Physical
January 26, 2008 by
Cleveland Sports Insider
| Comments
The Browns just can't get anything going this pre-season. Freak injuries, sluggish offense, and now... we can't trade our own players. As of yesterday, it was official. Lee Suggs was traded to the Jets for DB Derrick Strait.I was favorable of this deal. Why do the Brownies...
A Grand Opening - Tribe Scores 11 in First
January 26, 2008 by
Cleveland Sports Insider
| Comments
Ummm... Let me put this as simply as I can. The first 10 batters the Indians sent to the plate got on base. AND SCORED. In a monstrous, 33 minute ordeal, the Tribe put up 11 runs in the first inning, and went on to win it 13-0. As if that weren't enough, Travis Hafner hit his 6th...
Varejao Nearly Leads Brazil to Upset
January 26, 2008 by
Cleveland Sports Insider
| Comments
The Cavaliers very own Andersen Varejao led Brazil's attack with 11 points and 16 boards as they narrowly fall to LeBron and the US team 90-86. Carmelo Anthony led first half scorers with 16, but left just before halftime with a hyper-extended knee suffered chasing a ball to the...
Some Tidbits Before Bed
January 26, 2008 by
Cleveland Sports Insider
| Comments
Some friends of mine recently went to Italy on vacation. I dunno how it came up, but somehow, they found out that in Europe, LeBron James was a nobody. Hard to believe? A little. Now, however, because of his Team USA play, he's startin' to get some overseas publicity, especially...
Shapiro Throws in Towel - Trades Hollandsworth
January 26, 2008 by
Cleveland Sports Insider
| Comments
That's right, the last player that brought any experience to the team has been traded (Boone doesn't even count). Shapiro made the move early this afternoon, trading Todd Hollandsworth to the Reds for (I always love this) a player to be named later OR cash.So basically, we...
That's Called Pitching - Westbrook Throws Shutout
January 26, 2008 by
Cleveland Sports Insider
| Comments
Notice that when we win, we don't use our bullpen. Hmmm... Jake Westbrook improved his record to 9-7 as he threw a complete game shutout against the Angels. It wasn't a pretty one, as he was consistently getting into trouble, but Westbrook managed to work out of it each time...

Everybody's so excited about this young, strapping quarterback. Should they be? It's gonna be his first full season. Nobody really knows what to expect out of him. Let's look at a few of the reasons everybody is hyped about him, and find out if they're legit.1) He&...
It Just Figures - Hallen Retires
January 25, 2008 by
Cleveland Sports Insider
| Comments
Honestly, I thought he would come back. I mean, two days ago, these were just back spasms. An injury which would sideline a player for a couple weeks maybe. But after a strange turn of events, Hallen has called it quits, after being diagnosed with a couple damaged disks and stenosis...
Hallen Leaves the Browns
January 25, 2008 by
Cleveland Sports Insider
| Comments
After Cleveland's doctors diagnosed the second-string center with back spasms a few days ago, Hallen has now left the Browns for a second opinion in San Diego, where he played the last four years. Upon return, Hallen has the possibility of being fined, or being welcomed bach with...
Fire Shapiro?
January 25, 2008 by
Cleveland Sports Insider
| Comments
The Tribe suffered yet another walkoff hit, but this time, to the hands of the Devil Rays. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that makes 4 walkoff losses in the last 2 weeks? Maybe 3 weeks. Either way. Too many. What's the reasoning for these heart-wrenching losses? Two...
The Future of the Indians
January 25, 2008 by
Cleveland Sports Insider
| Comments
This year has been gone for months now. I know it, you know it, Pronk knows it, Shapiro knows it, and all of us are gearing up for next year's (hopeful) contention. Shapiro has already made some moves with the '07 season in mind... Bringing up Marte, Sowers, and Garko... testing...
Out of Town This Weekend...

Or, for you guys, I guess you could say in town. I'm makin' one of my treks from Indy to Cleveland this weekend, so if there's only a post or so a day... that's why. I'll try my best. But friends, family, and one of the Tribe games tomorrow will have me pretty tied...
Winslow Returns to Football after Two Years
November 20, 2007 by
Cleveland Sports Insider
| Comments
I would hope you knew that the Browns are playing the Eagles tonight in their first matchup of the year. It's pre-season, so it doesn't really matter that much. I always see this time of year as the team's tryouts for guys over 30. But seeing as how we hardly have any,...
Cavs Quiet Off-Season Designed?
November 19, 2007 by
Cleveland Sports Insider
| Comments
There was an article in the Akron Beacon Journal today about the quiet offseason that has kept fans in anxious suspense. Apparantly, Danny Ferry has it all planned out.The Cavs are getting dangerously close the salary cap, which is bad for multiple reasons. But most importantly, is...
Sammy Sosa Hall of Fame Material?
July 29, 2007 by
Cleveland Sports Insider
| Comments
This kind of an awkward entry. I want to start maintaining this blog again, but need a place to begin. I tried just writing a regular post... but it just didn't feel right. Instead, for this post only, I'll diverge a bit with a slightly off-topic idea. An interesting question...
Braylon...........
September 11, 2006 by
Cleveland Sports Insider
| Comments
I can't believe you dropped that pass. It might have cost us a W. I guess it kinda depends on how streaky Charlie got... but Braylon.... that was awful.Short and sweet. That is the letter I'm sending to the Browns Clubhouse this week. In case none of you saw the play, let me...
The Bush Mystery...
September 08, 2006 by
Cleveland Sports Insider

Reggie seems destined for greatness. From his championship years at USC, to the later revealed high school "Bush Tape," to the New Orleans Saints. It's clear that the Saints are centering their offense around this kid... and the outcome of the game rides on him...The...

Sorry I haven't updated lately... since classes started back up, I've been trying to find a schedule that worked out for me. Might have found it... I guess we'll find out by how many times I post in the next week.Brown's season is just about here, and I have to say...
There's NOT Always Next Year
August 22, 2006 by
Cleveland Sports Insider
| Comments
Ever since the Jake was built, along with that team of youngsters (who aren't so young anymore), Cleveland has lived by the philosophy, "There's always next year." Well, I think I can be pretty confident when I say that we all found out the hard way that this wasn...
