So with the first Indians loss of the season last night, naturally I went home and watched Major League to make myself feel better. It occured to me when I was watching it that Major League offers up some valuable lessons to the viewer, and Cleveland fans everywhere. Here are the most notable:
Don’t Underestimate Cleveland

Keep on creepin' on, Jake. |
Stalking girls home from work
sometimes works out: my man Jake Taylor did the often hated-on move of stalking
his would-be wife home from work. Little does he know that she’s actually going
to her fiancĂ©’s apartment. Hey, if at first you don’t succeed, try, try, again,
right? The second time he followers her
home from the stadium and hit’s a home run, terrible pun intended. The lesson
in this case is that while many hate stalking the girl you have a crush on,
Jake Taylor showed us that sometimes, it pays off.
The wave is a momentum changer:
Clinging to a one run lead in the top of the 9th with runners on the corners, all it takes is a two-person wave to get
short pop out to Taylor for seal the win. If that isn’t concrete proof of it’s power I don’t
know what is.

“Cut your nuts off and stuff them
down your fucking throat” always works: Jake Taylor’s words to Roger Dorn.
Never fails. Did you see the diggers Dorn took after Taylor threatened him like
this? If I ever have a problem with a co-worker, now I know exactly how to
rectify the situation.
There’s no way this Kevin Costner
movie will ever be as good as Major League
The matchup: Jesus vs. Jobu
a. Jobu can’t hit a curveball (-Jobu) (+JC)
b. Jobu
curses Harris after he drinks his rum (+Jobu) (-JC)
c. Jobu
is in the bullpen as Harris warms up for the playoff, but Harris is losing till
Cerrano says “Fuck you Jobu” and hits a 2 run homer (--Jobu) (++JC)
FINAL TALLY: My man JC smokes Jubo with a final score of +2 to -2.
