Please Tractor don't hurt 'em

by Alex

Sorry about the extended absense. Corey may try to blame the computer malfunction on me, but I swear I didn't do anything. Trying to follow Cleveland sports while not in Cleveland and without cable television or internet and having to go only by local newspapers is terribly difficult. I did notice a few things though:
  1. Travis Hafner kicks ass
  2. Scott Elarton is really bad
  3. New England is so ridiculously Red Sox crazy that it defies logic
Now that our computer is functioning I checked Cavaliers news and noticed that Eric Williams signed with the Nets. I don't know how the Cleveland press is covering this, but it seems like a bad deal for the Cavs. While I don't think EWill is a key piece for the team, he's a good defender and can shoot when open. Plus it seems as if Silas likes him. But he only signed for $4 million per year, which is cheap and I thought that the Cavs wouldn't be able to afford him, but with some crazy mid-level crap couldn't we free that much up?

Anyway, he won't be missed too much. I also noticed that Tractor Traylor is expected to sign with Cleveland again. While I would highly laud the signing if for purely comic reasons, I severely doubt it. Hopefully Drew Gooden/Tony Battie will take up all meaningful playing time. Tractor Traylor will never contribute on the court to a winning team.

Why is it that Alex is the one who is always around when the computer breaks?
If Tractor could pull his weight, he would make a huge impact.
