Cavs started 0-15. Got 1st win against expansion TrailBlazers. 


At one point they were 1-27, ended up winning 15 games that year. 7 of the 15 were against the expansion Buffalo Braves.

Two questions for today:

- What 2011 sci-fi film features a dog named Bernie Kosar? (I never heard of this)

- What Browns 2003 second round draft pick set an NCAA-FBS record by scoring a touchdown in 27 consecutive games while playing for Virginia Tech?

I knew VT. Thought he was later in the draft though, like 4-5 round. And had no clue he was that dominant in college haha.

I looked it up earlier bc I couldn’t figure it out (obv didn’t ruin it here). He was a 4th rounder. Lol the rest of that draft...

Interesting.  I will need to let the manufacturer of the game know they made a mistake.  Good job, iclfan2.   And Laley23 gets cred for saying that, also.

So did anyone ever hear of the movie I Am Number Four?


Here are two questions for this day:

- What Cleveland native threw 504 passes and punted 873 times before wrapping up his 16-year NFL career in 2005?

- What Cleveland radio pioneer hosted Sportsline from 1972 through 1987 before leaving for WFAN in New York? (I was a big fan)

And Al Bundy crushes them!


I used to love listening to Pete Franklin.  I believe that Gardens35 and cat_lover used to listen to him, as well.

I liked listening to him in the 80s also. He was all that we had for sports talk radio back then.

I played a pick up basketball game with Tupa in the early 90s. By NFL standards, he was only an average athlete, but among average people, he looked like a superstar.

I Am Number Four:

“Aliens and their Guardians are hiding on Earth from intergalactic bounty hunters. They can only be killed in numerical order, and Number Four is next on the list. This is his story.“

I’ll bet Heretic has seen it.

I Am Number Four. Not great. But had Dianna Argon so I obviously watched it. Raylan Givens being a main character is always a plus as well
