    Yes, we know.

    Browns.

    Then i would run them fuckers so far into the ground taht the past 10 years would loook like the glory days!


    i guess I could say the STeelers but man I would be afraid I would screw them up!

    I think the Reds. The day to day of going to the ballpark and such would be awesome!

    The Indians. Baseball is my first love, and I would absolutely spend the money necessary for a winner.


    There isn't much that's more enjoyable in person sports-wise to me than a meaningful baseball game in September with a full, rocking crowd.

    To be fair, the Reds and Twins don't pay big bucks to keep their stud pitchers (see Santana, Johan), they pay big bucks to keep their everyday players. So it's not really fair to compare the CC and Lee situations to that. However, not spending on Victor is a good example. If we had V-Mart at 1st and Santana behind the plate, damn.

    Yankees. Then Id trade all their players to Cleveland. Burn the stadium. Then go be the owner of the Indians.

    That, or Id be owner of some soccer teams in Europe, cause they are cashcows and its Europe. FC Barcelona, Fiorentino (Florence), Fulham (London), Marseille or Bayern Munich.

    Just about any soccer club internationally, probably somewhere in Ireland just for fun and so I could live there.
    Crew for me too.

    Then Chelsea

    But then we wouldn't have masterson so it's kind of a wash. But I would rather have vmart instead of masterson.

    I would pick the Indians. I wouldn't care if I went flat broke as long as I won a championship. I would be worshiped in Cleveland forever

    Id take Vmart, CC, and Lee over Masterson.

    Cleveland will always be a football town, especially if both teams are competing. I'd have to go with the Browns playing competitive football, but I agree meaninful baseball games in September when the Jake is sold out is awesome. We were truly spoiled in the 90's. If both teams were competitive i'd have the Tribe a very close second.

    The fact of the matter is they paid their best player to stay. If Dolan would have paid CC and Lee to stay, the Indians would have been competing for the division title every year at the very least.

    I am thankful you're not the owner.

    I'm kinda impulsive and dumb, so I wouldn't want to touch the Steelers or Pens. Give me the Pirates. They've been so screwed up over the past two decades that, at the least, my crazy bullshit ideas would mean they'd still be bad, but now be entertaining as fuck!

    If we would have kept cc and lee and v Mart we would be competing for world series yearly. 2 of the top 5 pitchers in the game along with a solid line up it's really a shame

    Reds if it was more for fun. Packers as a business move, although I'm not a fan I'd easily become one.
