Cleveland Is Gay For Sports

You may or may not have heard, but Cleveland is a front-runner for the Gay Games of 2012.

The other cities considered finalists are Boston and DC.

Events include "swimming, basketball, figure skating and softball, as well as nontraditional events, such beach volleyball and, in a first for the games, rodeo. They would take place downtown and in Akron."

Akron, you may have heard, is famous for making rubber. Just saying.

From the article:

Leading the Cleveland effort are Brian Tavolier and W. Doug Anderson, organizers of North Coast Athletics Volleyball and past Cleveland Pride parades. They flew to South Africa in October to plug Cleveland.

Come on. To "plug Cleveland"?

I'm far to juvenile for you to leave in lines like that.

What will the Browns do if Brady Quinn gets hurt in tickle fighting or the 100m Prance?
