The Cleveland Indians will induct Jim Thome, Albert Belle, Frank Robinson and Charlie Jamieson into the their Hall of Fame on July 30, 2016. This is doubly special to me personally, as Jim Thome is my all time favorite ballplayer.
Jim Thome played 13 seasons for the Indians, and his 337 homers and 1,008 walks are the most in club history. He was a three-time All-Star as a member of the Indians.
Albert Belle hit 50 homers and 52 doubles in 1995, and remains the only Major League player in history to accomplish the 50 / 50. He was a four-time All-Star and Silver Slugger Award winner with the Tribe.
Frank Robinson played the final three years of his career in Cleveland. He was the first African-American manager in baseball history, and served as Indians player-manager from 1975-1976.
Charlie Jamieson played the final 14 years of his career with the Indians, hitting .316 and scoring 942 runs over those seasons.

For today’s Throwback Thursday entry I ran across this in my drafts. ClevelandChick shared this during last year’s NBA Finals. The Cavs have made quite a few changes recently. Will they make their way back to the Finals this season?

WWE Superstar Mike “The Miz” who happens to be from Cleveland posted this photo to his Twitter account a while back. I wanted to share it now because I have a feeling this photo isn’t going to be relevant for much longer…

Even with the best record in the Eastern Conference at 30-11, the Cavaliers fired head coach David Blatt today. Assistant coach Tyronn Lue will be the team’s new coach.
Not quite sure what to make of this move. Cavs GM David Griffin said the decision was made to ensure that the team had the best chance of bringing championships to Northeast Ohio. I certainly hope so.
Thanks for your time in Cleveland Mr. Blatt. At least from this fan it was very much appreciated. Here’s to you Mr. Lue. You’ve got unfinished business to take care of.

The Cleveland Browns have named former Cincinnati Bengals offensive coordinator Hue Jackson as their new head coach. Jackson has 5 years of NFL experience, including one season as the Oakland Raiders’ head coach.
I think it’s fair to say that Hue has a tough job ahead of him. This is simple Hue – win football games. Make progress. Make it so the Browns are not the laughing stock of the NFL. Do that and you’ll be successful in CLE for a long time. Bring us a Super Bowl? You’ll be a legend.

The Cleveland Browns have fired head coach Mike Pettine and general manager Ray Farmer following a 3-13 season.
In an open letter to Browns fans, owners Dee and Jimmy Haslam had this to say:
It was important to us that we communicate directly with you regarding our decision to part ways with General Manager Ray Farmer and Head Coach Mike Pettine. We greatly appreciate Ray’s and Mike’s dedication and hard work while with the Cleveland Browns. We’ve made this difficult decision because we don’t believe our football team and football operations were positioned well for the future.
We are all disappointed with where we are and clearly understand your frustrations. We take full responsibility and understand you expect better from us. Your support and loyalty to the Browns is beyond compare, and as the stewards of this franchise, we take the task of creating success to heart. We are confident we will build a winning football organization.
Our focus as we move forward is on finding strong, smart leaders with high character who are relentlessly driven to improve our football team, willing to look at every resource possible to improve, and who embrace collaboration to ultimately make the best decisions for the Cleveland Browns.
We will approach the search for our next football coach and executives to lead our football operations with a clear vision regarding what we need to do to build a successful organization. Along with strong leaders, we need to build out a strategic plan, stay disciplined to it, and develop the right systems and processes to make better decisions for short and long-term success. We will be methodical in looking at candidates that epitomize the values we have laid out. While we understand the inherent challenges that come with changes, we’ve learned valuable lessons during our past four years as owners that will help us make sure we provide our team the best people, leadership and resources to succeed.
Our family is deeply committed to bringing you the winning team you deserve while continuing to try and make a difference in the community.
We are excited for the new opportunities ahead of us and embrace the hard work that needs to be done.
Respectfully and gratefully yours,
Dee and Jimmy Haslam
So the question must be asked. Where do the Browns go from here? And more importantly… do you care?

The Browns took the field yesterday to a half full FirstEnergy Stadium (I was there) with Johnny Manziel at the helm. They looked like a football team. They ran the ball, threw the ball and played defense worthy of the Dawg Pound. At least for one day this season, it was great to be a Browns fan.
Did you watch the Browns yesterday? Where do they go in the draft?

John “Hot Rod” Williams, a popular sixth man with the Cavaliers from 1986 to 1995, has died at the age of 53 from complications related to prostate cancer.
Rest in peace Hot Rod. You’ll be sorely missed. Thanks for the memories.

The Cavs ended their three game losing streak last night by besting the Portland Trail Blazers 105-100 at Quicken Loan Arena. They were once again wearing their alternative black-sleeved jerseys. I thought these were the ones that LeBron hated no?

Steve King, chairman of the Republican National Committee’s Committee on Arrangements, has unveiled the official logo for 2016 Republican National Convention, which will be held in Cleveland next July 18-21. The logo was designed by Cleveland’s Falls Communications.
There’s a ton of work being done to our city to prep for the convention. Do you think all the projects will be done in time?

WWE Superstars Dolph Ziggler (St. Edward High School & Kent State University alumni), Ric Flair (16 time world champion) and The Miz (Normandy High School & Miami University alumni) were in Cleveland for the 2015 NBA Finals.
I’ve been a huge wrestling fan for 30 years now. I absolutely LOVE that these guys rep their home town!

Yesterday, the Browns named Johnny Manziel as the starting quarterback for remainder of season. Thusfar, he has 933 yards passing, five TDs, two interceptions and an 88.4 rating.
In this Browns fan’s opinion, this is a very good move. We’ve got to see just what we’ve got in ol Johnny Football.

A Christmas Story is a 1983 film based on the Jean Shepherd book In God We Trust: All Others Pay Cash. The film has since become a holiday classic that is celebrated across the United States and especially in Cleveland. The infamous Christmas Story House where the movie was filmed is here and we have more leg lamps per capita than any other city in the US.
Case in point…

The Browns looked pathetic during a 9-30 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers yesterday. They limp into the bye week sitting at 2-8 with few potential wins on the remaining schedule. Browns owner Jimmy Haslam says no major changes coming during the bye week.
Looking at the upcoming schedule I’ve got a hard time finding more than 1 additional win.
Where are the wins? What record do you think the Browns will end the season with?
