1 TO 15 OF 15 MATCHES
#1) For Love of the Game
30 Apr 2020
I believe Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. I believe there ought to be a constitutional amendment outlawing Astroturf and the designated hitter. I believe in ... long, slow, deep, soft, wet kisses that last three days. (Bull Durham)
#2) S'more the Rat Birds
13 Sep 2020
I suspect this will NOT age well. I was raised on sports, starting at age 5, and played on varsity teams into college. As long ago as it was, my sense of seasons aligned with the sports calendar. Until now.
#3) Go Browns!
11 Oct 2020
The attendance increase for today's game was enough to use my season tickets. What's the worst that could happen? Nevermind. So ... THIS was planned for a week - but now feels VERY weird. And awkward.
#4) Open Season
01 Apr 2021
My weirdest baseball story? 1986. Playing Marty Schottenheimer's son, winning the tournament - then getting his autograph. Must. Forget. THE DRIVE. Yes. I mixed sports. That's what makes it weird. And there's more ...
#5) With the First Pick ...
29 Apr 2021
Cleveland. Home of the 2021 NFL Draft. Internationally renowned Art and History museums. One of the world's best orchestras. Largest theatre district outside NYC. Pioneers in science, medicine, industry, technology ...
#6) Burn On, Big River
24 Jul 2021
(b) "There's a red moon rising, on the Cuyahoga River, rolling into Cleveland to the lake ... where, you've got a friend in me." An option for the NFL draft, I didn't think I'd use it for the, um, team-to-be-formerly-known as the Indians.
#7) Caddyshack Dundee
06 Sep 2021
Golfing is something I have done just about every Sunday with my dad since I was 8. Oh, the joy of being born into an extroverted family into sports. 5, 6, 7, 8? The ages I started swimming, baseball, football and golf.
#8) Here We Go Again
12 Sep 2021
(b) The other day "kid me" cried about curses. While old enough to have seen misery at Municipal Stadium - I'm not old enough to have seen glory. BUT "adult me" paid for 0-16 and gave "kid me" something to really cry about.
#9) Not Ready for Some ...
21 Oct 2021
Yay, this should be fun. High winds, rain and barely 50 degrees tonight. Backup QB, RBs and an MIA punter. Not to mention all the other injuries. My in-game tweets may sound like a eulogy. For the season. Um. Go Browns?
#10) Farm Bowling
19 Dec 2021
Silly Sunday! I am one-quarter Italian. So. Family gatherings meant two things. Plenty of food. Probably not helped by some stereotypically owning restaurants. And bocce. Yeah. Some creative liberty here. For humor.
#11) WKRP ... In California
13 Feb 2022
Should I root for the barely Buckeye city on the river? No. I want the "greatest turkey event" in Super Bowl history! Side question. While parts of the episode did not age well - was this the best scene in sitcom history?
#12) There's No Surf?
20 Feb 2022
All-Star Sunday! Welcome to Cleveland, care of the Euclid Beach Band! Lucky break. Blizzardwise. But. One cannot speak of the city of my birth. And its horrific sports history. Without bawling over ... curses.
#13) "My Town"
15 Apr 2022
Tom Hanks got his start in Cleveland. At the Great Lakes Theater. And. He dropped out of college … to do what he does. Hence the Woody quote. The title? A Michael Stanley Band song.
#14) Pinilante Justice
26 Jul 2022
A long, long time ago in a desert far, far … wait. That’s not it. Well. I guess. Maybe? Hmm. How about this instead? There are times. I am amused. And. There are times. I need help. But. The best times? Are. These.
#15) The Mercy Rule
19 Oct 2022
When I was an emotional mess of a teen I would stay up all night watching TV movies and playing solitaire. My philosophical debate has always been – why do we play a hand we know we can’t win. And? I still have no answer.
