I know that I have written about this before but it comes to mind amidst the recent losing streak by the Cleveland Indians and seemingly dismal situations of the Cavs and Browns. Your hometown is part of your identity. While I would love to cheer for winning sports teams, these are all I have, really.
The commercial on STO that claims that we are fans for life really resonates with me. No matter how bad our teams perform, they are part of our hometown presence and thus, part of our identity. We are not Yankees, Steelers, or Cowboy fans. That is not real. We are Cleveland fans.
One day, we Cleveland fans will have our satisfaction. I don't know when but it will be glorious.
