I found myself laughing at the headline on CNN. It just shows how bad things are for this city. Who needs Lebron, Cleveland finally brought home a championship with the Spelling Bee winner.

I worked for/with the bee for a year and a half. Yeah, the kids can spell and that's nice, but the ones that win (or just make it to the finals) are usually incredibly smart in general.

I guess they should quit worrying about spelling and focus more on winning more baseball games.
