Look, I know that it's the factory of sadness up there. I'm glad that I don't live by that stadium anymore. But I am going back in another year or so. Cleveland, sadly, is a loyal city to a fault with their train wreck football team. I just wanted to grab those people and shake them back and forth and tell them to stop cheering for those losers. But they don't listen up there. The Cavaliers have a very good team, but Cleveland is actually a lot like Southern cities in the fact that football is everything to them. Of course they get cold @ss winters that escape the south for the most part. But it really is a cool town. I was impressed with the fine dining and micro breweries in the area. Old industrial city trying to reinvent itself. It is a hard-working town.

The team is not at fault for Manziel. They had him sign a pact that he would be all business and not self-promote during the bye week. He went out clubbin', was drinking and did the opposite of stay low key. If he can't be the starter in Cleveland, he has big problems. That's a franchise that is begging for even an average quarterback. But they won't bend their principles. Give them credit for that.

It's a fantastic city that is underrated because the media has made it a punching bag for decades. There's so much to see and do plus the people are cool. The town is built on its sports teams and the people embrace it If it didn't snow I would be living there.

Cleveland fans are the most loyal you'll find anywhere. You won't find another fan base deserving some bit of success. For some reason the city can't catch a break. Belichick, Lebron and just like the old Browns had to leave town in order to win titles.
