We did it. We finally got to Opening Day. This winter felt eternal and interminable, mostly from a weather standpoint, but also from a “oh god oh god, the Browns suck again” view. Not even the red hot, best-record-in-the-East-and-often-the-NBA Cavaliers could make the winter months tolerable in Northeast Ohio. But we are finally here. We made it through the “hot” stove season, spring training split squad matchups, and 87,000 “DoLaNz ChEeP” memes on Twitter til today. Opening Day.

At this point in spring training, there are very few questions when it comes to roster management. We know the guys that are gonna land on the injured list, most of the obvious names are optioned back to the minors, and all that’s left is one or two spots on the bench or rotation. Come Thursday at 4:10pm, we will know all 26 men on the roster, but today, we still have questions about who will be the last guy on the bench.

Some times trades happen and they make sense for all parties. Both sides get what they need, the value is set up to where neither team is left lacking, and the universe is happy. Then there are trades that no one understands what one or the other side is doing. [Cough cough Luka trade cough cough.] There is a weird third option where it works for both but the idea is just that: weird. Enter the recent transaction made between the Colorado Rockies and Cleveland Guardians.

Everything needs a facelift after so long. Legacy brands like Pepsi or Coca Cola don’t need to tweak much, but there are subtle differences over the years. Sometimes it’s major, like New Coke, and sometimes it’s just shifting the color blobs of the Pepsi circle. The Cuyahoga Pitching Factory LLC underwent a much-needed face lift this offseason, adding Luis L Ortiz, Slade Cecconi, Jakob Junis, and John Means to the roster while also re-signing free agent and former ace Shane Bieber.

A Hawk has landed in Cleveland! According to ESPN’s Shams Charnia, De’Andre Hunter, the 6’8 swingman, has been traded to the Cavs in a package for guard Caris LeVert, forward Georges Niang, three second round picks, and two swaps that will be sent back to the ATL. On the last day of the trade deadline, they acquire the 3&D wing they’ve been looking for, bringing much-needed length on the perimeter with a 7’2 wingspan and a consistent 3-point shot.

This is a letter to the Cleveland Browns All-Pro defensive end and reigning Defensive Player of the Year Myles Garrett. I’ve played/watched/streamed/dreamt about/planned a lot of table-top roleplaying games, [TTRPGs, if you’re unfamiliar with the acronym] including the obvious Dungeons & Dragons. [Also known as D&D, obvs] I don’t have the Malcolm Gladwell 10,00 hours in, but I do know my way around some dice, dry erase markers, and grid maps and minis.
