I concur

by Alex

Hi, this is Alex. 'Mistake on the Lake' is my first foray in the world of weblogging, but I hope I don't come off really whiny. But then again, I'm really whiny in real life, so perhaps seeming whiny in writing would be fitting.

Corey, you left off rating possibly the worst of the Indians announcers--Mike Hegan.

First of all, MoonDog sucks. Anyone who has yet to come to a Cavaliers game at Gund Arena (now known as "Gund Arena version 2") since they drafted Adonai wouldn't understand. He randomly circles the crowd and starts bashing this mangled drum. It's suprisingly loud, but also stupid. At first we thought MoonDog was a kangaroo, but we soon realized he was MoonDog. Does that mean he is from the moon? This needs to be further discussed.

I met Andra Davis once, not Andre Davis, but Andra. I also met Lebron James at Cedar Point where he refused to take a picture with me. I'll cherish that memory forever.

Already I have a feeling that a majority of my posts will somehow mention Roger Brown, famed sports "insider" for the Cleveland Plain Dealer and sworn-enemy of every sports radio host in the city.

I haven't seen MoonDog yet, but I'm sure he's really annoying. The cavs need a cooler mascot, like a guy riding around in armor on a horse... you know, a cavalier. He could have a crossbow that would shoot T-Shirts into the seats. That would be cool. All I need is a name... hmmm.

Anyway, alex, I hope you get to meet LeBron James some other time and have your picture taken with him. That would be cool. I like your new Blog. I'll keep track of it for all the IMPORTANT cleveland sports news.

Wow, is that true about the Moondog Coronation Ball? If so, I have slightly (only slightly) more respect for MoonDog. He is terrible at the trampoline dunks, but let me tell you - the other mascots I've seen are NOT better. Benny Da Bull (of Chicago) is horrible - I think he has a 50% field goal percentage... on dunks! The worst, though, is the Bucks' mascot, Bango. He takes five minutes to do two dunks (because he spends so much time strutting around and trying to make people scream louder) and then he's done.
