The back story: when I was a teenager I was fascinated by Cleveland because it was in a period of rebirth. During 1991 I predicted that the Indians would soon be World Series contenders because they had a great nucleus- people thought that I was insane until they pounded the other teams offensively during the next several years. During my teens I loved to cheer for the black sheep... the underdog... the underdog's resurgence... I even believed that I would become an artist and live there.
Now Cleveland's '90s rebirth has been reduced to... this...
Apparently this vid wasn't off the mark. Their economy actually IS based on an athlete.
Cleveland: The Philippines of America.
