Now that the season is officially over for the Tribe, how should they proceed to next year?

I don't know how many volumes we will have to run out here before someone gets their head out of their turd-cutter and cuts this turd from the roster of writers at ESPN. Forde lambasted Ohio State after losing their second straight National Championship game in a ridiculous, taunting manner. I couldn't figure out why the acidity was so necessary then. And now, I can't figure out why he needs to be so nasty about Big Brown and his owner.

I would get it if he was a contributor for Deadspin where I go to read acidic, funny commentary. Forde is just nasty without the funny, and I don't think that we need to have the conversation reduced to attacks on the more well-established media websites like ESPN. After the Ohio State article, I emailed the ESPN ombudsman, Le Anne Schreiber, but she didn't get enough response to make it a priority.

I assume Forde will eventually piss off a critical mass of people and get fired. I can't wait.

Mike Brown can't be trusted with LeBron James' last two guaranteed seasons in Cleveland. He is a one-dimensional coach who has maxed out on his potential. No matter what happens in the Boston series, the experiment is over and the Cavs need to move in a different direction.

The reason that I feel like writing about this at all is that as the media cycle has come around on this Cavs vs. Wizards first-round matchup, and the prevailing opinion that Darius Songaila should not have been suspended for game 6 has now become an unarguable fact in the media. I heard Steve Czaban talk about it this morning on Fox Sports Radio. I heard commentators talk about it during the Cavs' game 6. I heard commentators talk about it during the Celtics vs. Hawks game 6. It seems that everyone talking about this suspension is now referring to it as a great travesty - an injustice of epic proportions - the proof that the NBA is at worst fixed, and at best in favor of protecting their meal-ticket LeBron James to whatever lengths to ensure that he succeeds.

I have heard quite enough of this.

Dan Gilbert misjudges the city that buys tickets and watches his team on television. Dan Gilbert should at least try to explain why he would vote in favor of having the Sonics ripped out from under the fanbase in Seattle. When a bunch of Browns fans pay his bills, he should probably vote based on their sentiment.

DeShawn Stevenson better enjoy his time in the papers, because it won't last long. DeShawn Stevenson can't even enter into a conversation, but it makes a lot of sense that Stevenson would be jealous of The King.

Ricky Davis would appear to be a good player in the NBA. He is capable of putting up between 15 and 20 points per game. He can add 3 to 5 rebounds per game. He can jump right out of the gym to deliver thunderous dunks and alley-oops. He is an all-around athletic player who seemingly would be a good addition to any team. Seemingly.

Not surprising because of this video.

I am writing this as a result of the apparent move by the new owner of the Seattle Supersonics to hijack that team and move it to Oklahoma City. I am amazed that I don't hear more outrage from Cleveland fans regarding this situation. I know we are all very happy here right now in the NBA with LeBron James and the blockbuster deal that Danny Ferry just pulled off to rid this town of Larry Hughes. I know that our noses are buried deep in the newspaper watching the moves that Phil Savage pulls off to rebuild the defense and rise above a surprising 10-win season. But Cleveland fans should be screaming almost as loudly as Seattle fans as cross-country advocates for a city that appears to be about to lose its team.

Hank Steinbrenner is turning into Mr. McMahon from the WWE. You see when Vince McMahon decides he has to play a "heel*" in the WWE, he goes by the name Mr. McMahon. When he is playing a good guy, he plays Vince.

Well Hank Steinbrenner is slowly turning heel on the nation. He is walking into the arena somewhere in the midwest and he is calling everyone fat, lazy and stupid. I am convinced that Hank Steinbrenner is just trying to get boos now. He had this to say about "Red Sox Nation."

According the the Plain Dealer, Corey Williams is the newest member of the Cleveland Browns. Williams will be joining the Browns in exchange for a second round draft choice, contingent on the Browns' signing of Williams to a multi-year deal.

Michael Redd nailed a long three-point shot to skip overtime last night in Milwaukee versus the Cavaliers. Normally, I wouldn't be upset about a Cavaliers loss like that, because Michael Redd is just that good to be able to pull out a huge win on a last second shot. But today, I am upset about the game because Michael Redd's shot isn't the story for me. The story comes down to three names; Mike Callahan, Pat Fraher, and Brian Forte. Those were the officials for last night's game in Milwaukee and they cost the Cavs a game.

Ben Wallace, Chris Duhon and Joe Smith to Cleveland for Drew Gooden, Donyell Marshall, Ira Newble, Shannon Brown, Devin Brown and Cederic Simmons … unless Ilgauskas is in this deal.

Not since Magic Johnson (yeah the guy who owns the movie theaters) did it in the 1987-88 NBA season, has anyone had two sets of back-to-back triple double nights in an NBA season. LeBron finished with 31 points, 14 rebounds and 12 assists last night against the Indiana Pacers in a victory. On top of that, it was a road game after a home game in back-to-back nights of basketball. LeBron's line in Houston the prior night was 26 points, 13 rebounds, and 11 assists. Unfortunately for the Cavs, the first of the two games was a sloppy, sloppy loss to Houston at home.
