    Well this should be interesting, there are four spots available to immortalize individuals from a similar field. Instead of four Presidents, we are talking about the Mt. Rushmore of Cleveland sports.

    There are no real rules or right answers, but it makes for some fun discussion.

    My Four would be

    Bob Feller

    Jim Brown

    Otto Graham

    Albert Belle-(He is my all time Fav Indian, was such a asshole people fear him. Not to mention the best hitter in baseball for yrs in Cleveland)

    Could have put Paul Brown, Larry Doby, Groza, Thome, just to name a few... Do not think there are any CAVS I would put up there maybe Price. Not a big Basketball guy thou, even when Lebron was here.

    So who is your Cleveland Mount Rushmore??

      Larry Doby

      Which is sad because everyone of those guys played before I was born but noone since comes close to the accomplishments of these guys.

        The only change I would make is replace Larry Doby with Rocky Colavito. The original (The Rock).

                      Yes Florida is sweet. Lived in Tampa, cape Canaveral and Orlando. You couldn't get my ass back up north for nothing. Except for a Browns home game.

                                  Not everyone minds cold weather, I actually like having four seasons cause then it changes what I'm doing, changes the clothes I'm wearing, etc, I don't want it to stay the same all the time. Personally I wouldn't wanna live in Florida, I've enjoyed my visits there, but it's too slow paced for me to live there(but I guess most people would prefer that when they have a family to look after). After living in Canada for a good amount(year and a half), it doesn't get as cold in the north/midwest as it does in Canada. Besides Vancouver, it doesn't snow much there, but you have to be rich to own anything there. Lots of drug addicts there as well(more so than new york somehow), most people who own their houses over there inherited them.

                                  In central Canada, it gets around -50c at times(but the weather is good in the summer), in the Ontario area the weather is generally similar to Illinois/Michigan/Ohio.

                                  but lets be honest heh, Canada is nothing without the U.S, most people there are rational but some are so dense and keep spouting things like "blahblah health care is so much better here, college tuition is so much cheaper, public education is much better, less crime" when they don't realize any of those wouldn't be possible without the U.S building the foundation.

                                  I don't wanna get political though, it's all garbage corrupt nonsense full of idiots followed by idiots.

                                    i don't want other people to think that hot tanned fat asses on the beach are a bad thing (sorry rich talking about women here) but there's also the clean fresh jet stream that blows out all the crap from summer to which it brings us (here on the east coast/mid-west) a sense of doneness, a rebirth into a new season....nature's flush.

                                    in states like southern us nv ariz (where i've lived) south calif., fla, louisiana.....you don't know what you are missing.

                                    new snow boots, 4 wheel drive in full affect,standing in friend's backyards sippin some hot wine......wow, that's the good life!

                                      Different strokes for different folks. Personally, I hate hot weather. The In-laws lived in Clearwater for many years, and the wife's cousin got married there in October- and it felt like a bad July day in Ohio.

                                      I've always said the first thing I would do if I hit the Lottery would be to buy a condo in Anchorage- at least for the summer. 🙂
