Should we be worried about the Cavs?

In the past five games, the Cavs have one win and five losses, have dropped to second place in the Eastern Conference and have been ridiculed by just about everyone. So is that enough to become worried about the Cavs not making it back to the Finals? To a lot of people, the answer is yes. To me, the answer is no. And here's why:

Reason number one: Talent. The Cavs have one of the most talented teams in the NBA, and there's no doubt about that. LeBron James, Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love are some of the most talented players in the NBA. With that kind of talent, the Cavs can go far in the playoffs, no doubt.

Reason number two: Clutch. LeBron James and Kyrie Irving are arguably the two most clutch players in the NBA right now. LeBron had "The Block" and Kyrie had "The Shot." Those were the two most clutch plays in the NBA Finals. Those two plays together show that the Cavs have the clutch players to make it deep into the playoffs.

Reason number three: LeBron. This is such a simple reason. LeBron ups his level of playing from amazing to GOAT (Greatest of all time) in the playoffs. He overperforms and leads his team to the championship game almost every year. I see no reason why he can't do the same thing this year.

So should we be worried about the Cavs? No.

The Cleveland Gladiators, the Team Nobody Knows About

Well, it turns out that Cleveland is just bad at football in general. In the NFL, they have the Browns, a dismal team that had just one win last year. But Cleveland also has a football team in the league everyone forgets about, the Arena Football League.  Now, if you don't know about the Arena Football League, here's a rundown. The AFL was created in 1987 and is a spin-off of the NFL, but with a couple different rules. First, it's played indoor with short walls along the side of the fields. Players are allowed to crash into these walls without the play being stopped. Second, it's much more high scoring. The reason for this is because the field is only 50 yards long. Before the snap, one receiver is allowed to start running. In addition, there are only 16 players on the field at a time, eight on offense and eight on defense. Many players play on both offense and defense. Now that you know the basics of Arena Football, I'll talk about the Cleveland Gladiators. ...

The Cleveland Browns 2017 NFL Draft.

Last night at 8:00 PM in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, the Cleveland Browns were on the clock with the number one pick for the first time since 2000. Although the Browns have historically been bad, they haven't been bad enough to snag the number one pick in the draft for a while. Then this year, they went 1-15 and got the number one pick. In addition to the number one pick, they had the number 12 pick from the Philadelphia Eagles, which I'll get into later. Now if you've seen the movie "Draft Day" you'll know that the movie is totally unrealistic. In the movie, the Browns actually did well on the first day of the seven-round NFL Draft. This year however, I think the Browns actually did well on draft day, and here's why: From cleveland.com - Myles Garrett putting on his new team's football cap.  The consensus number one draft pick going into the draft was Texas A&M defensive end Myles Garrett. And the Browns went right ahead and selected Myles...

Worried about the Indians?

The Cleveland Indians made the World Series last year before losing to the Chicago Cubs in a great seven games series. This year, they're not off to the best of starts, so should we be worried about them? Yes and no. So far this season, the Indians are only 28-24 and are second in the American League Central division, behind the Minnesota Twins. The Indians are also not playing very well. They've been on and off all year and the pitching isn't very well. Carlos Carrasco has been pitching very well and has only a 2.89 ERA and has 65 strikeouts through 65 innings. Other than Carrasco, nobody's been pitching very well. Corey Kluber was out for about two weeks with injury and came back on Thursday, June 1 and pitched very well. He went six innings, allowed only two hits, walked only one batter, and had ten strikeouts. Besides that, Kluber hasn't pitched well at all. This is a former Cy Young winner who has a 4.36 ERA. Danny Salazar, another pitcher who's sup...
