At least this fan has her looks (uhm ok maybe not) to fall back on. Well, at … [Read more...] about Most Annoying, Disgusting Cleveland Indians Fan in the World (Video)

A tale of two teams: Cleveland Indians first half recap

Charles Dickens famous words are a cliché perhaps, but the Indians have made that cliché all too true throughout the first half of 2011. After starting an improbable 30-15, the best start in the majors, the Tribe went just 17-27, leaving them with a … [Read more...] about A tale of two teams: Cleveland Indians first half recap
