Hey, just so you know ... this post is now about 8 years and 5 months old. Please keep that in mind as it very well may contain broken links and/or outdated information.

It was fantastic watching the Cleveland Indians in the 2016 World Series. Unfortunately, after taking a 3 games to 1 lead over the Chicago Cubs, they lost three in a row, including a Game 7 heartbreaker in Cleveland that ended in the 10th inning. The Cavaliers lost to Golden State in the 2015 NBA Finals and then came back to beat the Warriors and win it all in 2016 (after being down 3-1). I’m hopeful for an Indians/Cubs rematch in 2017 that has a similar turnaround of events.

Still, it was a great season. It was tough seeing what felt like the entire country (including Joe Buck) get behind the “cursed” Cubs with their best record in baseball, but the Indians were always the underdogs and had to overcome a lot of adversity (injuries, etc.) to accomplish what they did. That says a lot to the fans.

Spring Training is going to be a lot of fun next spring! I’m already looking forward to March …
