The Cleveland Story
Wikipedia

Cleveland is a big city in Northeast Ohio. With a population of a 390,000, Cleveland is the second largest city in the state of Ohio. Home of the Cleveland Indians, Cavaliers, and Browns as the three major sports leagues. Cleveland is a city built on hard work and team spirit.

2016 must be the year of Championships for Cleveland. From a lead of 3-1 in the NBA Finals, The Warriors lost the next three, leading the Cleveland Cavaliers to a 4-3 win in the NBA Finals. This was the end (finally) to Cleveland's 52-year Championship drought.

The fans of Cleveland went crazy when the final buzzer sounded. The hard work of supporting these teams for years has finally paid off. Cleveland is bringing home a championship.

As the NBA Finals occurred, the MLB was starting off and with this, the start to a very successful season for the Cleveland Indians. Now, in mid-October, the Indians are in the semi-final round of the World Series. Up 2-0 against the Toronto Blue Jays, the Indians are anxiously ready to move on to the Championship series.

What is this mysterious phenomenon that is occurring in Cleveland. Some may say that the curse has been broken. But how did we break it? What special event happened to break the curse to allow Cleveland to gain a Championship?

I can answer this. It's the fans. It is the people that make up the city and the fan base and the teams. These people are the supporters and are the ones that will never stop loving a team no matter what occurs. Because of this, the Cleveland teams felt a surge of pride and support from their fans. This is what lead the Cleveland Cavaliers to the NBA Finals and eventually the Championship. This is what is letting the Cleveland Indians do so well in the ALCS.

The Cleveland fan base has been voted best and biggest in all major sports year after year because we stick by our teams no matter what. This is what sports should be about.

Cleveland is Home.

Cleveland will always be supported.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
