Cleveland Indians: 2017 New Year’s Resolutions for Indians Fans
Brag About Our Team
The Indians were the second-best team in MLB in 2016 and came within one run of winning the World Series without two starting pitchers, a starting catcher and their best player. That is impressive.
It is safe to say that Cleveland sports fans have suffered more than enough ridicule. We have been on the wrong end of cheesy jokes, false empathy and sarcastic sympathy. Luckily, most of that was laid to rest when the Cavaliers won the NBA championship in 2016. The Indians did a great job of finishing the year strong.
We hear it more and more every day: it is a great time to be a Cleveland fan. Minus the rebuilding Browns (who actually have their own, unique reasons to be optimistic), Cleveland sports are in style. Before long, we might even have our own bandwagon fans at the corner of Carnegie and Ontario.
The Indians have one of the best starting rotations, arguably the best reliever and just signed a top free agent. They have one of the best young stars in the game, and, overall, are one of the most fun teams to watch in all of professional sports. The Indians are incredibly easy to root for, but not many people outside of Cleveland know that.
It’s time we let everyone know that the Indians are for real. It is time we confidently get behind out team and show that we love our Indians.
