Especially in a city with so much baseball history.

Cleveland loves to screw things up by not embracing their blue collar roots. The Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse (artist formerly know as Quicken Loans Arena) had a total makeover in recent years. Instead of incorporating a rustic twist with their modernization of the building exterior, they went with this stupid glass look that lights up. Shiny colors are a stupid person's favorite thing I guess.

I like the Guardians nickname, but their logo is hideous. I wonder if the Roller Derby legal situation had anything to do with their logo being created with Microsoft Word Art rather than a professional, BA statue head.

Winning heals all wounds, and the Dolans would do well to spend some money to keep the core of this team together, as well as on the corner OF positions.
