I write at J-Beanie Sports (jbeaniesports.wordpress.com) and bring a new look to the sports blog world. I cover everything from the NBA to college basketball to the NFL to even some high school sports (don't plan on seeing too much NASCAR or MLS, sorry). I just got into this whole blogging thing so I think I'm a little behind but I like to share my ideas and view points in a unique, funny and enlighting way. I hope my site will make you laugh and make you think. My focus is more on Cleveland area sports since I'm are from Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio and Cleveland sports have given me so much joy and heartache (more heartache thanks to Jose Mesa and Michael Jordan). But I hope you like what I have to say and please check out my site. Let me know what you think. Email is jbeanie1524@yahoo.com.

Cancel all the bowls
— jbeaniesports.wordpress.com — The college football season has been, umm what’s the word to use, weird? Strange? Bizarre? Unpredictable? Worthless?... a tease? Crazy? Upsetting? I don’t know. Pick one. There was been so many twist and turns. There as been an upset every week and the No 1. or No. 2 team has lost to unranked teams 673 times. There is no clear cut No. 1 or No. 2 team. Therefore, there is only one thing to do the ... (more) Cancel all the bowls

7-4 Cleveland, Yep, 7-4
— jbeaniesports.wordpress.com — Sitting around watching the San Diego/Baltimore game yesterday something strange happened. The scores from the afternoon games... were flashing along the bottom of the TV and the Cleveland score came up. Here’s what I saw. (5-6) Houston 17, (7-4) Cleveland 27. What are those numbers in front of Cleveland? Surely, it’s a misprint, a type-o, a mistake. Either it’s suppose to be 4-7 or 74, ... (more) 7-4 Cleveland, Yep, 7-4

Carr is gone, so are great halftime interviews
— jbeaniesports.wordpress.com — It’s official. Lloyd Carr is no longer Michigan’s head coach. No real surprise here considering I said... it from the beginning of the season. Carr had an interesting tenor at UM, to say the least. There was plenty of up’s and down’s. As a life long Michigan fan (all 25 years of it), Carr is the coach of my generation. I remember Bo walking the sidelines but just barely and Gary Moller’s ... (more) Carr is gone, so are great halftime interviews

Cleveland’s most hated list
— jbeaniesports.wordpress.com — And there it is. Who took the over/under at 9 games? Ironman Larry Hughes will miss a... month, possible (more than likely) more with a, get this, bruised left leg. Really? The Cavs host Utah tonight. Which means Carlos “I steal from the blind” Boozer is back in Cleveland. We all know Cavs fans hate him for leaving the way he did. He is one of the most hated people in Cleveland sports history. (more) Cleveland’s most hated list

The Game; OSU-Michigan

The Game; OSU-Michigan
— jbeaniesports.wordpress.com — As has been heavily discussed, it’s an off year for the The Game. Funny to say that... considering this is all the game used to stand for; a Big Ten Championship and a trip to the Rose Bowl. Amazing what that BCS has done here. Oh well. It still UM and OSU. ‘Nough said. The Game has plenty of story lines to get over the fact that both lost last week and are out of the national title picture (more) The Game; OSU-Michigan

The Big Game doesn't feel so big
— jbeaniesports.wordpress.com — has there even been a game to decide a conference champion that is less exciting. It’s still... Ohio State and Michigan, and it still is for the Big Ten title, so there is some excitement to it, but it’s not the same. Both teams coming off losses really put a damper on it. Last week just kind of summed up the whole Big Ten season. It’s mediocre. (more) The Big Game doesn't feel so big

Browns-Steelers and the rest of the weekend
— jbeaniesports.wordpress.com — The weekend is once again and again J Beanie has all the information you need about the... big games (OK not all the information and not all the games, but read anyway). Since it’s still Steeler week in Cleveland and this is my last time I’ll write anything before the game Sunday, of course I have to start with that game. As I’ve said all week, for the first time since the wheel was invented ... (more) Browns-Steelers and the rest of the weekend

Reason to cheer… The Browns

Reason to cheer… The Browns
— jbeaniesports.wordpress.com — In the first quarter of yesterday’s Cleveland Browns game, I turned to my buddies around me and... said Sean Jones is going to an interception and this drive. A few plays later Jones picked off a Matt Hasselbeck to stop the opening drive. From there on I knew it would be a good day for the Browns. Being inside Cleveland Browns Stadium last night was one of the best sports moments of my life. ... (more) Reason to cheer… The Browns

A great night, minus the basketball of course
— jbeaniesports.wordpress.com — Oh man, what a night! An absolutely spectacular, thrilling, fantastic, marvelous night inside Quick & Loans Arena... last night. Wait. What’s that? The Cavs lost by 18 and were never in the game? Thank goodness for open bars. As I announced yesterday, I got to go to the Cavs home opener and attend a pregame party and watch the game from a suite. The night was perfect, until the game started, so let (more) A great night, minus the basketball of course

Sasha finally back; Andy to follow?
— jbeaniesports.wordpress.com — On the eve of the season opener, the Cavs finally signed Sasha Pavlovic. It’s about time. I... don’t understand why this deal couldn’t have got done a month ago. There’s nothing, according to reports, out of the ordinary about the deal. Three years at $4-5 million a year. Sounds pretty standard for a guy like Sasha. Why couldn’t Danny Ferry make this offer sooner? What was he offering all summer? (more) Sasha finally back; Andy to follow?

Sundays are fun again
— jbeaniesports.wordpress.com — The Browns are on a win streak. The Browns are on a win streak!! It’s not much... of a win streak but it’s still a win streak. Two games in a row for the first time since 1982. Well, not that long but it sure seems like it. For the first time since the Browns returned in 1999, they are actually watchable. Even their 9-7 playoff appearance in ‘02 wasn’t entertaining. In past years, every ... (more) Sundays are fun again

Someone get Ferry off the couch
— jbeaniesports.wordpress.com — The season starts in less than a week but the defending Eastern Conference Cavs open play in... exactly one week on Halloween Night when the Dallas Mavericks come to town. The 2007-08 Cavilers will have an uphill battle as they try to defend their conference title. I found a check list of things Cavs GM Danny Ferry wanted to do this offseason. Let’s look at it and see how many got accomplished. (more) Someone get Ferry off the couch

Game 5 disappointments/disappearances
— jbeaniesports.wordpress.com — So Cleveland will have to do it in Boston. They had their chance to win the American... League in Cleveland but a whole buffet of mistakes and disappearances cost them. Here they are in no particular order. * Why did C.C. come out for the seventh inning? * Where has Travis Hafner gone? * Where has Grady Sizemore gone? (more) Game 5 disappointments/disappearances

Bye-by Bronx, Bring on Boston
— jbeaniesports.wordpress.com — Good-bye Yankees and good ridden. How great was the Tribe’s 6-4 win over New York last night?... I’d compare it to as great as the Cavs beating the Pistons and winning the Eastern Conference Championship, only greater because everyone hates the Yankees more than the Pistons. The win was like that nerdy, skinny high school kid who gets picked on and picked and then after high school works out all the (more) Bye-by Bronx, Bring on Boston

A perfect October Thursday
— jbeaniesports.wordpress.com — LET’S GO TRIBE! LET’S GO TRIBE! That’s about how I feel this morning (minus the slight hangover... since watching the Tribe beat up on the Yanks meant I had to have some beers). How much fun was that!?!?! I really have nothing else to say on the game. It was that good that it can stand alone. Let’s just keep it up for tonight and the rest of October. One game doesn’t make a series but Game One in a (more) A perfect October Thursday
