Rogue Ball Thrown On Field During Live Play, Confusing Everyone

Israel's War Against Hamas Is Justified, Says Cleveland Cavaliers Coach
We will direct you to this David Blatt interview with Israeli newspaper Globes and then back slowly away from the computer.

How Corey Kluber Started Kicking So Much Ass
Cleveland Indians starter Corey Kluber shredded the Seattle Mariners last night, shutting them out over nine innings and striking out eight, and taking just 85 pitches to do it.

This Is A Browns Fan Pissing On Art Modell's Grave
How do you turn Art Modell into a sympathetic figure? You don an Ed Reed Ravens jersey (to fool people who might find a dude in a Browns jersey visiting Art Modell's grave suspicious, natch), hold your pee for a while, get yourself a catheter, and then dramatically reveal your hidden Lyle Alzado jer...

The Cleveland Browns expect a decision in the appeal of Josh Gordon's season-long (at minimum) ban for a failed drug test within the next two weeks.
