    I'm not sure how often this forum is visited, but I can't help but post a thread here about the Fausto Carmona debacle. Only in Cleveland would a sports team have a player for 11 years - ELEVEN - finally turning the corner to become competitive in their division, only to have one of their starting pitchers arrested for false identity. I wonder whose head should roll in that organization for overlooking THIS one. I could see finding out early in a player's career - but to find out after 11 years after you signed him to a 4-6 year contract worth rather large money for his production? Wow. I'm so glad I'm from Western PA and not originally from Ohio. This area is definitely cursed. :lolol:

    That's why I'm SO glad to be a fan of Pittsburgh. Moving here from western PA was a nightmare when it came to sports. Their teams are so pathetic, and even when they get good - they lose, or choke, or have something weird happen.
