"Without a doubt one of the greatest players of our generation"

.

Thanks a lot, Mr Tom Verducci. These words grace the current issue of S.I., and the curse has already begun...the Tribe lost last night. Call me a cynic, but I won't be surprised if Grady pulls a hamstring in tonight's game.

Seriously, everytime the magazine spotlights a Cleveland player, no good ever comes from it. (LeBron being the rare exception) Not to mention the fact that this recent publicity will simply inflate his salary demands in a few years, and our poor Tribe will lose yet another elite player to those rotten Yankees or Red Sox.

Cleveland fans had better enjoy this phenomenal talent now while we still have him...let's hope he'll be leading the way for us come this October!
