Thought of going into that in more detail. Fitting irony, apparently, the "A" team still wasn't very good.

I know, right. The river burned 50 years ago. We should keep focusing on that because it's still the 1970s.... https://media4.giphy.com/me...

The feeling is mutual....

Does "intent" really matter though?

Well.

The name “Mud Hens” was taken.

If you’re Cleveland, what are you going to do?

Wow, those statues are stunning! Gaurdians is a great name once you see them.

My kids were stuck being Trojans. At least once a season some other team would have some guy dressed up like a condom. Endless fun!

I ws rooting for Guardians--you can see the sculptures on the Lorain-Carnegie bridge from the top of Progressive Field. Did she get the shirt at GV Art in Lakewood--they've been making them awhile? Mr. P wnted the Cleveland Grays, after the independent militia that sarted in the 1830s and fought in the CIvil and other wars. Or after the winter sky.

Those images are used on all kinds of CLE stuff.

I think in Coventry, there is (or was last time I was there) a store that sold CLE memorabilia).

Swapping two letters for four new ones. Is this the cheapest solution?

The rest of the PAC-12 calls them "The Trees."

I like it! And since my team, the Baltimore Orioles, suck at the game of baseball, I will shift my allegiances to the Guardians, at least until the end of this season.

Tom spent some time in the Cleveland area when he was a young actor, working at some theater or other around here; I've heard around the grapevine he will still occasionally stop by the Italian restaurant up the street from my house. The pizza is pretty good.

Sorry to turn it back on you, but why would it not?
