The word immediately preceding Cavaliers is Cleveland. Maybe having the best player in the world has blinded some fans to the realization that indeed, we're from Cleveland, and that something was bound to happen because we're the most cursed sports city.

Cleveland also had arguably the best team in 1986 and 1987 only to give it away to The Drive and The Fumble.

Cleveland also had the best team in 1997 before Mesa blew it.

Cleveland also had the best pitching staff and probably the best team in 2007 before blowing the 3-1 series lead.


Has anything in Cleveland's past led you to believe this year would somehow be different?

I'm not saying the Cavaliers are going to lose to the Celtics, I'm not throwing away this series yet because I'm a little better of a fan than that, but I started this thread to attempt to ease the pain that this most recent Cleveland collapse will inevitably cause if the Cavs fail to win the championship.


I tried so hard to be optimistic towards the Cavs, a feeling foreign to me. I've almost come to expect failure, and losing to the Celtics in '08 and Orlando in '09 has done nothing to ease that pessimism. I really thought this year could be different, but in reality it's probably not. Back to being a pessimistic fan.


Rant over.

Um, when your favorite team doesn't even make it to the finals after being arguably the best team in the league all season long...of course we're going to be upset.

This post makes no sense.

So we shouldn't be upset in this case simply because it always happens to us?

As your right, it should be phrased as "not as upset", my bad, I'll change it.

No, this is exactly why you guys are fucking losers. You honestly believe there is some black cloud above you.

LOL says the guy who predicted a Cleveland blowout in this series, and then later said he only meant injury wise (BTW I have yet to see evidence of Boston dirty play in this series, you fucking dumbass).

Boston is just playing with a lot more heart, determination, and at this point, skill.

LOL, well Boston isn't losing are they? The entire thing revolved around them getting blown out and losing their cool--the idea isn't even valid if Cleveland comes out and plays like garbage, something no one could have predicted. But yeah, as if that has anything to do with what I said anyways--funny, that's the only thing you've got on me and you still don't understand it.

Dude you are so arrogant it's hilarious.

Lemme throw this question out there for anyone besides SQ idiot Crazies to answer:


Does anyone believe SQ has any credibility left, if he ever had any? I've never seen a bigger flip flopper, he's worse than Kerry.

I haven't flip flopped on anything, you're legitimately a dumbass. That's your own problem.

Yes, I'm legitimately a dumbass when literally every single post on your retarded thread is attacking you, and yet you are the ONLY person defending yourself, I guess that makes everyone else a dumbass except you right? More arrogant bullshit from the biggest idiot I have ever read on a message board.

Dude, I'm getting ripped on by 3 of the biggest jackasses on this site. And I didn't just learn that you 3 were jackasses recently either. It's funny that you think it bothers me.
