Nothin' better to do with your time, eh, m8?
And people today *still* wonder why Cleveland is eternally known, with howls of derisive laughter in the background...*and* foreground....as
The Mistake On The Lake!
Installment Two:
How
OTHERS See it:

...Jackson compares James to an oppressed, impoverished slave....
O'YEA! After YOU got one of your followers *knocked up* in an extramarital affair...like, you've got a right to talk.
Note to Jesse Jackson:
You're an idiot.
Go away.
One Final Response:
All this mess....harkens back to the time when Cleveland was lost in a Depressive Funk over the Cleveland Browns leaving their city for Baltimore in November 1995. It's one reason why I decided to leave thwe city for good almost 2 years after....and yet another reason why the city is the target of jeering & derision. The schools were/are in serious disrepair; The police force was/is sorely understaffed; The roads & streets were/are in deplorable condition...even the assassination of Israeli Prime Minister Ithzak Rabiin only rated a postage stamp sized pic & a small paragraph on the front page the day the Browns departure was reported (3/4 of the Front Page, mind you! Rabiin's story was on Page 99-Z somewhere..) but the City of Cleveland has its priorities straight...Don't mess with their Pro Sports!
I remember seeing in one of their Dailies one bloke quoted as saying (The morning after the team's secret overnight exodus): "I opened up a six-pack of beer and cried all night".
And is af that wasn't bad enough...one fella was on telly...on
ESPN for all the world to see....stating straightforward and in all sencerity...that
he compared the departure of The Browns from Cleveland to the deaths of John F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King. That guy needs to see a doctor.
I do understand that *any* major (or medium/fair-to-middling) city whose Pro Team suffers any kind of loss *is* a major blow to said city's morale, but, come on, for Christ's Sake, lets get things into perspective!
I think we can all get on with our lives.
Can we?
Please.
