I’ve long been a supporter of bringing Shaq to Cleveland. The only knock on him seemed to be his age, but the guy played more games last year than he did the previous 8 seasons. He can still play. If anything, I think his age plays to our advantage. Shaq has made it clear... »

Iranians & Americans: Together Like Peas & Carrots
Do Iranians like Americans? That seems to be the question Americans who are skeptical of the so-called reformers providing any real reform are asking. Actually, they aren’t asking it, they’re telling everyone “no, Iranians don’t like us… not even a little bit.” Personally, I found this hard to believe, so I did a bit... »
Cleveland: Best Damn Fans In The Stands
Earlier this summer I left my beloved Cleveland, OH for Chicago, IL in order to pursue sketch comedy writing, something Cleveland, unfortunately, doesn’t have. Yesterday, I finally received a taste of Cleveland in Chicago when I made the mile trek out to Wrigley Field to see the Cleveland Indians take on the Chicago Cubs.... »
North Korea Might Attack Hawaii. WTF, Kim!?
The good news: Defense Secretary Robert Gates says that the U.S. is ready IF North Korea were to launch a missile towards Hawaii. The bad news: “We do have some concerns if they were to launch a missile,” said Mr. Gates with the duh comment of the day. When is one not concerned about... »
Plop, Plop: A President Grows A Pair
Thursday I had questioned President Obama’s lack of vocal support for the protesting Iranians, hoping that soon enough the presidential testes would emerge from his body by speaking out in solidarity with the Iranian people. The President finally gave that speech, which realigned America with those practicing the rights we’ve embalmed in our very... »
Questionable Election, Fighting The Establishment, Revolution! What Do These Words Have In Common?
Unity! …Wait, what? Apparently, according to the Ayatollah of Iran this whole debacle has proved that the Iranians are even more united in maintaining their Islamic revolution than ever before. Say what!? Ayatollah, you crazy! When the opposition is risking their lives in the midst of death threats, police brutality and various other forms... »
Clerics Chatting: An Update In Iran
The Guardian Council of Iran, a group comprised largely of Islamic clerics and lawyers, has extended their Godly hands to the three candidates that are challenging the election results, agreeing to meet with them to discuss their grievances with the allegedly fraudulent election. Because if there’s someone I want investigating allegations of election fraud... »
Sarah Palin: Beacon Of Equality
The wars in Iraq and Afghanistan have apparently become wars to protect freedom of speech in America AND a war to give Sarah Palin a political soapbox. This is to be expected, though. Palin has, after all, been speaking out for women’s rights and equality amongst men and women ever since she got shot-putted... »
Irritating Iran: Mahmoud Agrees To Recount… So Long As Nobody’s Watching
In the news today the Iranian government has agreed to a recount in the disputed election, but has banned foreign press from their borders. Apparently nobody within the Iranian government thinks it looks bad to ban foreign press during questioned elections. When asked to comment, Mahmoud Ahmad-whatever said, “Why not? It worked for China... »
Submitting My Resume To The Cleveland Indians
During my time as a writer for College OTR, I submitted my resume to the Cleveland Browns, because I was (and still am, Phil Savage) just as capable of dropping balls as Braylon Edwards. Now after watching the Indians bullpen continually give up more runs than a working girl of the night gives blowies,... »
