NFL playoffs, root against Pittsburgh.
NBA playoffs, root against LeBron.

Just roll with it.

I want SA to win tomorrow and pulling for both series to go to 7. That would be badass.
I have a feeling both series are going 7. Although, I wouldn't be surprised at all if Miami mailed it in for game 6.

I'm sure it's happened before, but I can't recall.

Anyone know?

Congrats on the big win. Sorry you feel I'll QQ or that I'm a fan of the heat.

I'll be honest, I'm kind of indifferent when it comes to the Heat/LeBron. Don't hate/love him/them. Just would rather see some of the C's players win another ring.

I don't have anything against LeBron and the Heat....I just ain't got nothin' for 'em.

This is what is funny to me...it's not just Cleveland fans who hate Lebron lol pretty much the entire country hates Lebron cuz he's a fucking douchebag. Has nothing to do w/ Cleveland or how he left Cleveland...the guy's just not a likeable guy.

Yeah, well....he had a lot of markets pissed because they thought he was going there. NY, Chicago and Cleveland are the main ones. The damage his retard buddies and he did to his "brand" is not fixable.

Pretty much truth. Anyone who thinks it's just Cleveland fans are fooling themselves. These games are getting such big ratings because 90% of the nation wants to see them lose.

I don't know any Steeler fans that would root for Cleveland in the playoffs and I certainly wouldn't expect Cleveland fans to cheer for the Steelers in the playoffs.

I have to confess though...I have rooted for a Cleveland team ONCE. It was back when Tom Berenger, Charlie Sheen, Wesley Snipes and the guy from the Allstate commercials played for the Indians. ;-)

Rome annoys me, but his show should be entertaining tomorrow.

My C's are playing w/o Chris Wilcox & Jeff Green (Heart Surgeries), Jermaine O'Neal (Knee) & Avery Bradley (2 hurt shoulders) and are still 1 game away from the NBA Finals... I'm amazed, Doc Rivers is the best coach in the NBA & you can't tell me different

This is crazy.

Chris Wilcox? The corpse of Jermain O'Neal? Avery Bradley?

I'll give you Jeff Green, but come on. The core of that team is still healthy. Doc is a very good coach and I'm a fan of his, but he's not the best coach in the NBA.

All these players combined makes like 1 solid role player. This made me laugh.
