Cleveland Baseball Is Back
Waiting For Next Year

“A SWING AND A DRIVE, DEEP LEFT FIELD, AWAY BACK, GONE.” If you are from Cleveland, you know who says that, and without a doubt, you know what time it is! Yes Tribe fans, it is time to get your ball caps out because it is baseball season again. It is Tribe Time!

I'm pretty sure everyone in the universe knows what happened last season and boy what a season it was for the city of Cleveland. Not only did we witness a Championship from the Cavaliers, but we almost witnessed a second Championship from the Cleveland Indians. The Indians did so many great things last season. Winning the AL Central, sweeping the Boston Red Sox in the ALDS, and defeating the Toronto Blue Jays in the ALCS to reach the World Series for the first time since 1997. Some of us remember those great times in the 90’s at the corner of Carnegie and Ontario. Unfortunately, the Tribe was just one game short of winning that World Series that they have been tasting since 1948. Yes, we applaud what the Indians have done last season, but that was last season. The new season starts now!

This season, the Indians must feel really confident with who they have on their roster. They were without Michael Brantley for most of the last season and hope to have him healthy. They will have many games with possibly the best reliever in baseball in Andrew Miller. We all know when it’s Miller time, it’s "Miller Lites Out." The Indians have one of the best starting rotations in baseball with Corey Kluber leading them. Kluber came close to a second Cy Young Award. On top of all that, the Indians added a piece to their puzzle that they desperately need, a power hitter in Edwin Encarnacion.

So, what can we do to make sure this season is another success? The number one thing is us, the fans. The fans need to go see this team. I have to admit, attendance last season was not one of our strong suits. The Cleveland Indians had the 3rd worst attendance in the American League last season. For a team who ended the season at the top of the American League, that needs to change! I encourage all Indians fans to go to a game at least once or twice this season. Yes, the ticket prices will most likely increase which seems to happen every season, but our team is worth the price. You are more likely to see a winning team than a losing team.

Baseball is great! It's not America's favorite past time for no reason. I mean, who doesn’t like a hot dog and ice cold beer watching a winning team like the Cleveland Indians. I am telling you, this season is going to be something. There are some high expectations for this team to do great things this season, possibly be even greater than last season. You know what I am talking about but I am not going to jinx it. So, who’s ready for some baseball?

LETS GO TRIBE! LETS GO TRIBE!

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
