So this is where I get to tell Wikipedia users about me, eh? Well, my name's Steve, I live in Cleveland, Ohio, and I'm a newspaper editor by trade. It is for this reason, I suppose, that I feel compelled to correct grammar/spelling errors when I come upon them. You're welcome.
I have only created two pages: One on my old college chum Chris Rose, now a big shot on the Fox Sports Network; and one on the colorful pitcher Bo Belinsky, to which I see quite a bit has been added, for which I am grateful.
In no particular order, here are 10 things I believe:
1. No Cleveland team will ever win a championship in my lifetime, LeBron or no LeBron. But I will still watch them in the faint hope they will prove me wrong.
2. Franklin Delano Roosevelt was possibly the worst president in the nation's history (only James Buchanan even makes it a tight race), and without question the most overrated. Herbert Hoover deserves a lot of blame for starting the Great Depression, but FDR's the one responsible for it getting so horribly out of hand -- and today's Americans are still paying for his wrong-headed socialist ideas (i.e. Social Security).
3. Historians, by and large, simply do not understand economics. (See #2)
4. Black Sabbath belongs in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and Jackson Browne does not.
5. The sum total of the greatness of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's symphonies is higher than the sum total of the greatness of all the other symphonies that have ever been written. And he died at age 35. Freaky.
6. There will never, ever be another TV show as funny as The Simpsons.
7. There is no point in a man trying to understand how a woman's mind works. The best we can hope for is to try to recognize a few patterns and act accordingly.
8. People who claim to speak for God have the potential to be extremely dangerous.
9. The designated hitter rule has led to an absolutely, positively inferior version of baseball. God thinks so, too.
10. Nothing, and I mean NOTHING, is quite as invigorating as colonic irrigation.
