  • Sad to say I've been alive on most all of them. And the tribe did NOT have home field in 95 and 97, big deal in 97.

    Still it would be somewhat "miraculous" for this team pitching wise to win a 7 game series. ....but I'm OK with a miracle or two. 😉

    GO BUCKEYES, BROWNS, INDIANS, CAVS, YSU, NAVY and yes I like ND!

  • That 97 team was so damn loaded. went to 2 series games that season. Recorded "Believeland" & still FF threw that part..This time we get enough outs.Go Tribe!!

    Browns & Buffett: Got to go fishin, Down to rock bottom again, with just a few Friends Team Brotherhood-"It's not about You,Me or I. It's about building We"..Hue Jackson

  • I came on board as a diehard fan back when Sudden Sam McDowell, Luis Tiant & Ken the Hawk Harrelson were playing....

    its been A LONG time to wait for moments like the mid 90's and now.... so excited - GO TRIBE!!!!
