Indians (Baseball) - last won World Series in 1948
Browns (Football) - won the National Championship in 1964, 1 year before Super Bowl started.
Cavs (Basketball) - always sucked. got to the playoffs in the early '90s

I was locked out of work this morning in the rain for a good hour because the idiot with the keys was sitting at home watching the game.
I don't see the point... It'd at least be a little better if people actually went out and played these sports themselves instead of sitting watching...[/color]

I take it you were never any good at sport then? Anyway, if people are sitting watching it, they are being entertained, there for it must be entertainment .....

I know sheepy already said it.. but.

:wtf: !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111....

:wtf: :wtf:

Umm, yes there are. Have you ever played rugby? Even at under 16 level there are a good few monsters of a player on the go. Myself included (though i don't play under16 anymore, ofcourse)
Title: Woo!!
Post by: phreak on November 24, 2003, 09:13:12 am: you think i was being serious? I don't know the roster limitations in rugby, but in football you are allowed 53 men on a team and you need to keep them intact through the season (4 preseason + 16 regular season + 4 post season). Its not uncommon to get torn tendons and broken bones and that puts people out for the season. thats with pads and such. if they didn't wear pads then the season would last like two weeks before everyone is incapacitated
