Good evening Boston. My name is Kevin Dasd. I am Northeast Ohio's most well liked and respected sports fan. Now that the introductions are over, let's get onto business...
Boston, let's get one thing straight right now. Cleveland hates you. We view you as a spoiled sports city, that doesn't deserve half of the great things that have come your way. And now, I am pleased to announce that it's payback time.
We all remember the scene in 2010. Lebron walking off the court in Boston and yanking off his Cavaliers jersey--tossing it in the laundry bin just inside the tunnel. That was a very rough day for Cleveland sports fans. We just lost to a city that we despise and we all pretty much knew that Lebron was going. Oh how things have come full circle.
I didn't plan on registering here, but these threads make me sick. Do you people think you're really going to take us 6 games? Heck, some of you arrogant Bostonians actually think you can win this series. These games aren't even going to be close. This is Cleveland's time to shine. We have the best Big Three in the modern era and if any of these games are within 15 points, I'll be shocked.
And finally, I want you all to remember one thing. Even after we smash you in this series, Cleveland will still hate you!
-Dasd
I'm sorry, but
which team has had the #1 overall pick three of the past four years and still needed the best player in the world to feel sorry for them to become relevant?
The whole league beat the Cavaliers' brains out for 3 years, but the Bobcats didn't magically declare, "It's payback time." They felt sorry for your team, just like the rest of the league. I can deal with the "Now's Our Time to Shine" route or the "We Don't Like You Guys, Here's to a Good Series." Heck, I could even deal with the "Happy We're Back in the Playoffs, We've Been Through a Lot" sympathy route or the "We Just Straight Up Hate Your Team" argument.
But no, you try to spin it and make Boston, of all places, come across as the entitled, evil-doing city. Championships are
earned, not stumbled upon, and Boston has earned it through good managerial decisions, solid coaching, and relatively stable ownership. The best managerial decision in Cleveland sports the past decade has either been to change the Browns' color scheme or to hire Boston's old baseball manager.
Oh, and TP for you!
PS:
HGH testing kicks in for the NBA next year. Just saying
