I hope its right again. Cause i cant stand to watch the Browns in the Super Bowl next year. That may very well happen if Indians win tomorrow or wednesday.

Browns already have 7 losses, I don't think you have to worry about them in the Super Bowl

Correction, 8 losses

Did you read my post carefully? I said next year! Browns could very well become another team from worst to first in 2017 season. Remember the 1979 Bucs almost made it to the Super Bowl.

And my point is they aren't turning things around anytime soon with their current roster

Comparing the cavs with lebron and irving and whatnot, the indians who have been close with 2 world series in 95 and 97, to the browns who last won a playoff game under BELECHICK. Is apples and damn grenades lol

I mean you could argue the Indians are a bit more out of left field but they had a winning record in 2013, 2014, and 2015. I think winning 7 games would satisfy any Browns fan next year

The browns have never had one decent QB, that should tell you everything about how the franchise is run. The best they have been recently was I think in 2010 when they were 10-6 and still missed the playoffs.

[Moderator 3]

Hello!  Baseball!  We have a thread on the Browns in the appropriate forum.

[JO_75]

The Cavs were down 3-1, came back and won. Indians were up 3-1 and one game away from winning the World Series, and now it looks like Game 7 will be on the horizon give or take a Indians comeback. The Cubs just opened it up with a Grand Slam in the third giving them a 7-0 lead.

And the A's still haven't fired him. 

[Pats]

Of course not, the owners are even cheaper and stupider than him. Plus he owns part of the team

This is Totally insane!!!! 

A Cubs fan spent nearly $50K for two tickets to Game 7 of the World Series

CLEVELAND — There’s a buzz in the air here. It’s undeniable. It’s in the stadium, of course, but on the streets and in the restaurants and in the Ubers as well. “You going to the game?” is a fairly common question. If you’re not wearing a cap or T-shirt to identify which team you’re pulling for it, it’s often followed by, “Are you a Chicago fan?”

Chicago Cubs fans have made their presence known around Cleveland, a city that’s about five hours by car from theirs. But no Cubs fan has invested more money to come to Cleveland for the World Series than the one who plopped down almost $50,000 for two tickets to World Series Game 7 on Wednesday night.

Stubhub confirmed to Yahoo Sports that an unidentified fan from Chicago paid $23,400 apiece for two box seats on the first-base line. You can buy two cars for that price.

Your first reaction upon seeing that is probably, “Wow, that much?” But consider what’s on the line for Cubs fans: Game 7 of the World Series, the team’s first since 1945 and a chance to end a championship drought that goes back 108 years. If you’ve got the means and you love the Cubs … hey, we get it, people do some crazy things in the name of sports fandom.

The Cubs have a 5-1 lead right now in the bottom of the fifth.... I say if they hold on to win it would be worth it.

[JO_75]

Wow... Cubs change pitchers and mistakes were made and now the Indians have battled back to be down by 2 as Cubs lead 5-3 now.

Hmmmmmmm

[Pats]

Oh cleveland, everyone was in sync for bad performances for the indians tonight. Kluber not hot, miller cold as well, the offense, the defense. A perfect sad collapse.

[Cville-Raven]

Glad I'm not an Indians fan. I'd be so pissed if my team collapsed from a 3-1 lead like this.

[Cville-Raven]

Yessss

[52520Andrew]

Tie game!!!

[LosT_in_TranSlatioN]

What a game lol

[Cville-Raven]

Chapman is done. Maddon shouldn't have used him last night. Every pitching change tonight has killed him.

[LosT_in_TranSlatioN]

Who turned off the lights I mean made the rain fall?

[DomMcRaven]

Indians in 7 by the way....

[reed20]

Costly error.
