Browns CuRsEd?
I have never been the type to believe in any type of curse,hex,voodoo, etc. But after seeing G. Baxter getting hurt with a strained pectoral for four weeks im getting pushed to my final straw about believing that. We have all heard the saying tell it to Cleveland, this implying that Cleveland knows all about losses and heartbreaks. So this made me wonder is it the one team thats cursed or is it the whole city. It seems like no matter what the teams do they are always kicked in the nutts just when their fans hopes are really high. Just to name the most recent.
1. Both Centers from the Browns getting hurt even before the first preseason game. Wouldnt be that bad injuries are normal in NFL...BUT we just singed L. Bentley to a huge contract that made him the highest paid center in the league.
2. Both B. Edwards and KWII Hopefully Edwards is just a minor set back in a great career but Winslow has already made it seem like he has a curse on him by only playing in 2 games by the start of his third year.
3. The whole Cleveland Indians season this year. With such high expectations going into the season I truly dont think there is more of a disappointing team in the MLB.
4. The CAVS playoff run. We were down by 2 games to detroit everyone thought it was over but Lebron gave us home giving us the series lead with three straight wins. Though that was nice it didnt last long as Detroit won the last two games to win the series in dominant form. Seems like they just wanted to get our hopes up once again.
I could go on and on and on and on about all the events that have happened over the years, but my fingers would fall off. I will continue to be a die-hard cleveland sports fan no matter what happens. I was born there raised there and my heart is still there. It just makes me wonder sometimes how one little city on the lake can have so much bad luck.

When I go to Ohio State to major in Sports Journalism, this is what I am going to do. I won't stop there, because I will try to dress and make the team.

Hard to not suck when just about every big free agent and draft pick we land ends up getting injured...
Having Butch Davis set the team back 5 years even more.
