About james »

James Lawrence is my name and I'm a sophomore in college at Edinboro University. I am currently a sports Sports Administration Major. I love sports to death they are my life. I am Cleveland die hard, I was born in Cleveland at Fairview hospital and even though I don't live there anymore I still bleed Ohio. I follow the Cavaliers and Indians hard core.When I was in high school I came up with a quote for myself "If I can't make a career playing sports. I want to get paid to talk about them." I live by that. Everything I do revolves around sports. Sports have made me into the person I am today. Cleveland Raise-Up!!

The Shortlist »

  • Favorite Athletes

    Brett Favre,Tracy McGrady, Grady Sizemore, Reggie Bush, Chad Johnson, Johnny Mac, Wayne Rooney, LeBron James.

  • Favorite Sports Teams

    Green Bay Packers, Cleveland Cavaliers, Cleveland Indians, Manchester United, England Soccer.

  • All Time Sports Moment

    1.) Watching Brett Favre win Super Bowl 31 over the New England Patriots 35-21. I remember it like it was yesterday, just watching the young Favre gunsling passes left and right.

  • Most Memorable Game Attended

    The most memorable game I ever attended was the Green Bay Packers against the New York Giants. I saw the last game of Favre's career in person and that is something I can take to my grave. I grew up watching him studying his games and analyzing his play. So it was an honor to share his last game with him.

  • Most Unbreakable Sports Record

    I feel the most unbreakable record in sports is the 56 game hitting streak set by the very talented Joe DiMaggio. With the elevation of play by pitchers now it is almost impossible. The closest I've seen was Casey Blake with i believe close to 20.

  • Ruth or Mays?

    Thats a very tough comparison but overall I am going to have to go with the slugger and pick Babe Ruth.

  • Unitas or Montana?

    Montana, and the reason being is because players got so much better by the time Montana came along. Football has changed so much and the elevation of skill and talent is remarkable, and to do what Montana did was pretty special.

  • Jordan or Russell?

    Russell, I met Jordan he is an Ass.

  • Gretzky or Orr?

    Gretzky!

  • Pele or Maradona?

    Pele no comparison. Pele is the greatest soccer player ever. Enough said.

  • Federer or Sampras?

    Sampras

  • Tiger or Nicklaus?

    Tiger, Tiger woods ya'll

  • Petty or Earnhardt?

  • Schumacher or Senna?

  • Pac 10, Big 12, Big 10, SEC, ACC, or Big East?

    The Big 10 is the most competitive league by far. Think of the schools in it, you have the four powerhouses right away Ohio State,Michigan,Wisconsin, and Penn State. There are just to good of programs to over look the Big Ten as the hardest division in college sports.

Yeah, this season sure has been a disappointment. It is really hard to say what went wrong. It was all sunny skies when looking at their potential just a few months ago. I still think that this team is very good, just is one of those seasons that gets lost. We still have tremendous starting pitching, and a bullpen that is slowly getting back to being competitive. Just that the offense w/o the big bats is what really hurts. If we had a healthy Hafner and Martinez, the Indians would surely be right up there with the Twins and Sox.

I just hope that the Tribe can cut a deal w/ Sabathia, without him over the next few seasons I would be very skeptical to this teams chances to stay competitive as they say they want to do.

the article was good. the predictions will probably be close to right on although I think Minnesota might be better than what you had them listed as. otherwise, I think the article was good and your analysis was good as well!

Thanks for the add and kind words! I see your a Buckeye fan going to school in Pennsylvania, you from Ohio? Good luck with your broadcasting major, I look back and wish I had done something similar. I live for this type of stuff, but my choices took me elsewhere in life. Anyway, Go Tribe!

Wow sorry it took me sooo long to write you back... got sick for a bit n then had track meet after track meet the last few weekends... this is the first weekend off of competition before another the weekend after...sorry about that, sincerely. I said yes to CU Boulder for grad school but I also got into michigan, UNC, Colorado state, and Florida state. It was a bit of a tough decision but I think I made the right one, ultimately. How's Edinb. treatin ya, do you play any sports there? Hope you're having a terrific day!
