Who Will Be the Most Disappointing Cleveland Indian in 2015

[Maximus]

I have got a whole other thing going on, my wife is a big Red Sox fan and my 3 1/2 year old will get his ass kicked at school if he isn't repping the Giants. But you Clevelanders should force yourselves to pay 20x the ticket prices I paid in high school and do it often. I just can't due to geographic location...

Tell Thor to quit being a purple penguin, get him a wahoo tattoo on his bicep and tell him to man up. If he says no, tell him to pick out a switch and meet you in the shed for 20 lashes.

Cleveland fans have supported their teams when they've been elite. The Indians of the last 7 years aren't comparable to a team that won multiple championships over half a decade.

I get the point in that "true" fans, whatever that means, can't understand why people wouldn't support a team that wins some games but people are picky with their money. And they should be.

A consistent winner is a good product. A consistent loser is a bad product.

The Indians have been a consistent loser. They're a bad product. Why must people buy it?

But if the point is to only support sports when they are good or you are guaranteed to win, you are taking the emotional aspect out and making it purely about entrainment.

Which is fine, but then it's an even dumber investment. 99% of movies have a happy ending are cost a quarter of a sporting event.

So if people are dumb to support anything other than a guaranteed winner, they are dumb for supporting sports at all.

Back on track...

Michael Brantley. I feel the bottom just falling out on him, to be honest. He'll hit sub .270, he won't hit for power, and he'll post an OBP closer to 3.000 than 3.300

Am I too late to buy some of that dick paper?

You can't lay out a sales pitch like that and not provide us the goods

Tell me it was an excellent analogy, like the malcontents in this thread refuse to do, and I'll consider it.
