I wasn't even going to validate this stupid thread with a post,but I needed to express what a classy Pittsburgh fan and poster HitsRus is--well played,my friendHitsRus;395691 wrote:Some people have a hard time seperating a sports rivalry from reality. As a Buckeye and Browns fan, I really don't hate people from Michigan or Pittsburgh outside the context of the game. Are some of their fans assholes? Sure....but so are some of ours. Usually they are the ones like Capone who don't grasp sports rivalry concepts very well. Personally, as a Browns fan, I'm grateful to the Rooney's and their help in getting the NFL to put a franchise back in Cleveland after our former owner sold out. Art III and Dan Rooney, incidentally, were educated in the Cleveland area...going to school at Gilmour Academy.

My brother was a classmate of Art III circa 1970 at Gilmour. And then he went to Pitt in the business program and I shared a class with him. One night they called role, and obviously announced my last name. Well, I look a lot like my older brother. After class, Art III came up to me and asked if I was related to his old high school acquaintance at Gilmour. The next thing you know, we're drinking at the the Pub on Forbes Avenue and the man would not let me use my wallet.HitsRus;395691 wrote: Art III and Dan Rooney, incidentally, were educated in the Cleveland area...going to school at Gilmour Academy.
PM me with your bro's name.

REAL Ohio baseball (your words, not mine) hasn't had a winning season since the beginning of the decade, I do believe...Strapping Young Lad;397598 wrote:Who cares about the Indians??? Seriously. Let's talk about REAL Ohio baseball and how the Reds have owned the shit out Pissburgh in all important post-season play. 4-1 I believe in postseason series' vs. the Piss-poor Pirates.
Where you at Capone.....Oh yeah, you're off celebrating a victory vs. the Indians amongst two decades of losing.

Where exactly did you make ANY statement what so ever that anybody would be agreeing with? You ASKED what it was like to be a Cleveland fan. You never said WHAT IT WAS like to be a Cleveland fan.but I would like to know what's it like to be a fan of Cleveland( mistake by the lake ) sports teams.
Be honest, how bad is it?
