I guess I agree. I liked Acta but the team has gone down so much that we need a total House cleaning.

But I mean TOTAL!

Tough to clean house when the people making those decisions ARE the house.

Very good point.

Dolan could probably afford to spend more money on the team had he not made that appointment with Madoff.

First I have heard of a relationship there. I thought Madoff only worked with my "tribe."

kenm- I know nothing, I was trying to be funny.

Apparently I failed.

That's what these threads are for KenM ! We all have opinions. We're not always right or wrong. We don't always have to agree or disagree.

The primary point of these forums is sharing thoughts in a civil manner.

Living in Illinois, there are not a lot of people around to vent frustrations with. These forums, for me anyway, is a form of release.

We're all Indian fans here and we all share the same feelings. We all want what's best for our team. We want it to be competitive, not necessarily world champions. We want to be in competition in September and October. We don't want to be left behind at the all-star break.

So KenM.........Disagree with me all you want

The Indians aren't on Direct TV xtra innings today although STOH lists them as playing now.

STO isn't carrying the game. I don't think OAK is either, b/c it doesn't show up on my Extra Innings menu, although I would be blacked out here in Cleveland.

We are winning, 1-0, end of 2nd, btw. Kipnis led off the Indians half of the first with a homer.

Coco ties it with a homer of his own.

6-1, OAK now.

The game is being covered a bit live on the MLB Network.

When Oakland made it 6-1 on the Pennington homer, they cut away

Are we the worst team in mlb?

6-2 as Hannahan drives in a run.
