Not a fan of the west coast swings

These 10.30 tip times are tough. You either watch the game at a bar and end up getting hammered, or you have to force yourself to stay awake at home. Combining them with a weekend night is always good…I watched last night’s game at Southside with Larry, said hammering occurred. But I’m no longer capable of the back-to-back 10.30 tip time hammered thing. Glad I got that nap in during the USC-UCLA game.

10-5

Cavs let one get away last night. The way Lebron played in the first quarter, I was a bit perturbed to see the offense drift toward other players. Another late game tonight. This is a pretty big one…I’m worried they’ll go 0-3 on the road trip.

Retire World’s number?

That seems a bit extreme.

The festivities did not include retiring Free’s No. 21, which he and many fans have wanted for years… “I look at the names up there and I say to myself, ‘It would be an honor to be in the rafters with them,’ ” Free said. “I helped revamp a franchise that was dead, completely dead. If you can do something like that, you deserve to be up there.”


I like World. I remember a time when you really couldn’t see many Cavs games on TV, and all you had was Joe Tait making those amazing calls on the radio, World B. Free right in the middle of it.

But gimme a break. World B. Free did not “revamp” anything. What brought the Cavs back to life was the draft that brought Brad Daugherty, Mark Price, and Ron Harper to Cleveland. World B. Free was a great shooter on a pretty poor team.

Roger Brown covers himself

I guess the PD likes that people talk about Brown, I plead guilty there, but what is this?

No, Cavs point guard Damon Jones was not happy about our Wednesday column, taking him to task for publicly sulking this season. (Jones didn’t think our characterization that he hasn’t handled things in a mature fashion was fair.) Yes, Jones and this columnist had a frank, lengthy and somewhat intense discussion that night in the Cavs’ locker room, following the team’s win over the Los Angeles Clippers.

I must have missed something, but…who cares? Looks to me like Roger got a few tongues wagging (specifically Damon’s) with that shot at Damon, decided that he liked being the center of attention, and decided to write another piece about Damon to keep the tongues wagging.

So is it just me…

Or does paying attention to the Browns feel like a big chore this year? Looks like Frye is gonna get a start this Sunday at home, we’re on the verge of a 1,000 yard rusher in Rueben Droughns…but that’s about all that is interesting about the Browns right now.

Plus when you’ve got the Cavs to get excited about at 10-4, a 4-7 Browns team stumbling to yet another losing season just starts to take more emotional energy than they are worth. Or is it just me?
