Your right. The sky has fallen. The Cliff Lee trade was the final straw for me. That indicated to me that the Indians organization was not serious about winning a world series anytime soon. So I am not willing to be a fan anytime soon. It made me lose interest in MLB and gain more interest in NHL, NBA and NASCAR. Baseball used to be my second favorite sport, now it's not even on my radar. I'll probably catch an Aeros game or two this summer and a Pirates game, but that's it. Like I said, wake me up after the strike.
PS If you think Choo plans on being in Cleveland long term, read this. Choo hired Scott Boras this year and Scott's favorite thing is to get his client to the free agent market. Choo has already turned down an extension.
