There's a talk-host in Cleveland who says that "God hates Cleveland" because of all the misfortunes its sports teams have suffered. That's a bit much, IMO, but we are as cursed as a sports town can get: 1) 1997 World Series - Indians are the 1st team to ever blow a 9th inning lead in the decisive game and lose. Thankfully, it also happened to NY in 2001, 2) Browns teams of 1980, '86, '87, 3) Cavs losing to Jordan in 1988 and then losing Boozer to a bone-headed management gaffe.
All due respect to Red Sox fan, Cubs fan, and Philadelphia fans. You don't have a thing on us - we're at 40 years without a title. The Sox have the Pats & Celtics from the past 20 years, the Cubs have had the Bulls & Bears, and Philly had the Sixers & (I think) the Flyers.
