We suck. It's that simple. The game just ended with runners on first and third. Texas used the only strategy that works 100% of the time against the Idiot Indians. Throw the ball out of the strike zone. Not 2 or 3 inches, that might be called a strike. No, 3 feet is about right. Gutierrez or whatever his name is looked so bad striking out. The ball was at his feet and he swung away. So, we ended up losing 4-2. No surprise there. Got the engine pulled and am I ever sore.

Looks like I'd need the smiling Chief tonight. The Tribe decided to hit some home runs and beat Texas 7-4. Omar hit one and Branyan hit two. Chuck Finley who never had much luck against Texas got the win. But it's still a hollow victory without Pudge and Juan Gone in the line-up. Even the Cleveland Plain Dealer was merciless in it's criticism of the Indians. I would like to hope the nightmare of the past 2 weeks is behind us. Detroit beat Minnesota and I'm not sure what the White Sox did. But everybody can beat the White Sox except us. Tomorrow Bill and me pull the engine out of the blue Chevy. Hope to have it back on the street before too long.

Hey, I was close when I said they'd lose 10 in a row. They managed to drop 9 out of ten and thats close enough for me. Today was a day game, cold but sunny and as usual only Chicago came to play. We lost 6-3. What a joke we're turning out to be. Everybody said it's our year. Not this time. We were outscored 22-10. I'm going to look for that Chief Wahoo pic tomorrow at the library. Too bad I didn't already have it. The beat up Indian would be all over my site.

Too bad it waited so long to rain last night. But it would have just delayed the inevitable. Todays game might get rained out because it's an afternoon affair. If it does, I just hope we don't have to make it up later in the year in a pennant race. But that would mean Chicago and Minnesota would become as crappy as we are. The Sox put it too us again, this time 9-2. I listened to a little of the game, bottom of the 8th we were down 6-2 when I shut it off and thats where I figured it would end up. But they weren't finished embarrassing us. It's been a long two weeks, but then, it's been a long 45 years for me. Thats Indian years. I hope Anna decides to go to the doctor.

Another dismal loss. The Indians scored first on a Jim Thome home run and then put their bats away. Last night it was Chicago 5-1. I just keep looking at this line up and wonder where the offense is. Yeah, we can still have those big innings but not like before. There's just too many question marks and too many strike outs. But, we only have 2 more games against the Chisox before we start playing the western division teams again. Maybe our luck will hold against them. That and Rodriguez and Gonzales are hurt and won't be playing.

We stopped the slide at 6 games with a 4-2 win at home against Chicago but I think it's too late for that win to mean anything. A pair of 2 run home runs by Fryman and Branyon got us our first win in over a week. We did get solid pitching though. I listened to the last couple innings on the radio. We had some late inning rallys but couln't score any runs. However, all we needed was 4. Tom said he's going to take a look at my site tonight.

Tom gave the pinball crown back without an argument. The tribe has now lost 6 in a row with no end in sight. The Twins beat us today 4-2. As usual we had nothing. The Twins got us back with a 3 game sweep of their own. We were outscored this week 44-15. Now that's bad. And, Chicago took over first place by a half game. This week it was Minn 4-Cle 2, Minn 6-Cle 2, Minn 12- Cle 3, Chi 7- Cle 1, Chi 7-Cle 2, Chi 10-Cle 5. I was hoping Anna would have sent me some of her cookies.

I didn't feel much like adding another loss last night so I waited till this morning. Wow, we suck. The Twins just kept rolling along 6-2. I'm glad they started the season cold or we'd be at .500 now. It's now quite possible we'll lose 10 in a row. The only thing that can stop that will be rain. I saw some highlights on the news and I'm glad the games are on cable so I don't have to watch them.
