Have you guys read this article by Dan Shaughnessy?

http://www.cleveland.com/cavs/index.ssf/2010/05/boston_scribe_shaughnessy_clev.html
 
He spent most of his article talking about how great of a city Cleveland is, why they deserve it, blah blah. Everyone sports writer knows that you don't say that another rival city deserves to win against us. This, days after Bill Simmons picked them to beat your us city.

I may be making a big deal with this, but I'm just amazed. Seems like all these Boston sports writers, like to be on the Boston bandwagon, and then another team who's good comes by, they jump off... Why can't we have a writer that will stick with us? Why is EVERYONE jumping on Cavs wagon?

For once in my life, I'll agree with Joakim Noah!

By the way, I wonder how people who read the Globe this morning felt reading Shaughnessy's column while on the T.  ???
Yeeeaaaa!!!

I haven't liked the mainstream writers for a while. Stick with our boy JimmyT you'll be alright.

I see nothing wrong with the article. He still thinks the C's are going to take it.

He's just giving the city of Cleveland some love after its been dumped on for a while. Adn if the C's fall, I'd much rather see a blue collar town like Cleveland celebrate a title (especially after such a long drought) instead of **** LA.

Dan's been a epic homer in comparison to most of the media.

Ironic to say the least.

You can always count on Shaughnessy to take the contrarian point of view. Doesnt surprise me in the least.
