Clevelander's Rally Together During The ALDS Playoffs.
Facebook

What a time to be alive and to be a Cleveland fan. The Professional athletes of Cleveland are showing all of the fans in the city that the last 52 years prior to 2016 no longer mean a thing. It's funny to think that I am living in the generation where I am seeing such hope and unity and such a beautiful turn around in most of our Cleveland Sports. (With the exception of the Browns Organization, it's still a work in progress *per usual)

If you haven't heard The Cleveland Indians are 2-0 in the ALDS playoffs against The Boston Red Sox. This is a pretty special year because we haven't won a playoff game since 2007 when we LOST to the Boston Red Sox... And here we are again, and it also so happens to be David 'Big Papi' Ortiz's last year in Major League Baseball. Needless to say, everyone's pretty nervous and the stakes are high.

Playoff Game 1: With home field advantage at Progressive field, The Cleveland Indians had three homers by Roberto Perez, Frankie Lindor, and Jason Kipnis all in the 3rd inning. Jose Ramirez scored with the help of Lonnie Chisenhall and Roberto Perez scored with the help of Jason Kipnis. Obviously, The Tribe won 5-4 with 37,762 in attendance. That is AMAZING!!

Playoff Game 2: With another home field advantage and two words: SHUT OUT, thanks to our 2014 Cy Young Award Winner Corey Kluber. Corey pitched 106 pitches and ended the night just briefly into the 8th inning. The Indians won 6-0 and Progressive Field's attendance count was 37,842 *I was one of them*. And so were these guys...


Before the game, Lebron James, along with JR Smith (PLEASE SIGN ALREADY), Channing Frye, Richard Jefferson, Justin Jones, and Dahntay Jones all went on the field to deliver a message to the Cleveland Fans in Progressive Field. My Favorite part of Lebron's pre-game pep-talk was...

"Always believe something Cleveland, it's always us against the world. Always us against the world. Cleveland against the world, LET'S GO."

Lebron really know's how to get a crowd going right before a playoff game, that's for sure.

From The Lake Erie Monsters winning the Calder Cup in June. Stipe Miocic, our local UFC Heavy Weight Champion from Independence, Ohio. And, of course, we can't forget-


So- Now Cleveland Indians, as you've said before... It's your turn.

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
