Why is Cleveland losing the game tonight and almost for sure the series tomorrow? It’s not the starting pitching. Or the weak bats. It’s the lame-ass song that Fox Sports has decided epitomizes Cleveland. “Cleveland Rocks.” Shut up already, you idiots. “The Drew Carey Show” sucked and so does that theme song. I don’t know anyone in Cleveland who liked that show (although I haven’t asked too many.) They’ve been playing the song incessantly throughout this series. At least Boston has a decent song, “Dirty Water” by The Standells. There’s gotta be a better song about Cleveland that they can play. There’s one by Tom Waits and another by Randy Newman. Although I don’t know either, I’m quite sure there better than that shit song they keep playing. It’s bad enough my team is chocking yet again without this further embarrassment. The classic ‘70s Cleveland punk band, the Pagans, has a song about Cleveland (“Real World”) which refers to public square and proclaims that “the west side is the best side.” I forget the name, but if they start playing that the Red Sox are toast. By the way, Fuck Boston.
