OK...this applies to any and all team sports.
What was the moment in your lifetime that something happened with YOUR team that broke your heart?? And it has to be with YOUR team. I don't know how one city's sports teams can have so much bad luck. Boston talks about Bucky Dent's homer & Buckner's error.
Oakland will always remember the immaculate reception and the "fumble" this year against the Patriots.
The City of Cleveland tops them all........*sigh*
The Cavs had Michael Jordan against Craig Ehlo--
The Browns had Brian Sipe's interception by Mike Davis in 1980-
The fumble by Ernest Byner--John Elway's Drive--
Florida Marlins beating the Indians in the seventh inning in extra innings. I think Craig Counsell was a hero in that one.
If it wasn't the losses we could drop back to all the bad luck each team has had---
The Browns have had deaths
Ernie Davis dying of leukemia after the Browns traded Bobby Mitchell for his draft rights. Don Rodgers dying of a drug overdose in 1986 or 1987--an all-pro defensive back not available for their games against Elway--
The Cavaliers had injuries but no deaths-
Jim Chones in the middle of the playoffs
The loss of Brad Daugherty due to injuries
Now Ilguakas is having physical problems as well
Austin Carr never fully realized his potential because of a broken foot.
The Indians had their share of bad luck as well--
Herb Score would have been Hall of Famer--but for the line drive off the bat of Gil McDougald. John Smiley broke his arm. Not to mention the pitcher who died in the boating accident in 1994---
The beat still goes on in Cleveland--I don't know how any city could beat that kind of bad luck!!!
