CLEVELAND — "You Said It" is a reader participation column based on the premise that if you don't laugh about Cleveland sports you'll cry.
And that if you do laugh about Cleveland sports, you might still end up crying. But at least friends and family will like being around you more.
YOU SAID IT
Bud: What’s more likely, the Indians re-signing Lindor or you throwing your name in the hat and running for President? — Chris in Strongsville.
It’s a tossup. But on the off chance both happen, I promise to declare the subsequent $47 beer at Progressive Field a national emergency.
Bud: I think I finally figured it out. It had to be Hue Jackson who designed the Indians block C logo. I mean who else could come up with something so lifeless and uninspiring? — Jeff Williams, Peachtree City. GA.
I guess I’ll say it before anyone else gets a chance. The author of You Said It?
Bud: Does anyone in the Cavs organization truly miss the LeBron drama? — John.
Dan Gilbert does. But only on those seven days a week he checks the franchise’s value.
Bud: Does the term ‘cap space’ take on new meaning in stories regarding Trevor Bauer? — Jim Corrigan, Fairview Park.
Bauer’s issue isn’t smarts. It’s that people don't call him the most mature guy in the room unless they have a ninth-grade class in mind.
Agreed. Can't wait to see so many eligible women compete to listen to a lecture on laminar flow and Magnus force over a non-candlelit dinner.
Bud: Saw where Jose Canseco is looking for Bigfoot and Aliens. Hope he does better than looking for fly balls at old Muni Stadium. — Pat.
In the version Canseco no doubt tells today about that fateful event, he was distracted by a blonde Yeti who had just given him her phone number.
Bud: Given how many different pitches Trevor Bauer insists on throwing, aren’t you surprised he only has three Rules of Dating according to that Sports Illustrated article? — Tim, C-Town.
Left unmentioned was Rule No. 4. Don't ask this baseball Renaissance man if those jeans make you look fat.
Bud: My buddy was beside himself watching J.B. Holmes play a 5 1/2 hour round for a PGA Tour win Sunday. I look at it differently. I’m just glad he’s a golfer and not a paramedic. — Kevin.
You Said It “winners” prove themselves to be the best shank in the tournament.
