So let me see...are you saying we can't say that people want to say stuff about saying what other people want to say? If so, then I fear that saying what should be said instead of what people want to hear said will lead to saying things that have been said just to say it for saying it's sake. That's what my friend said he said anyway.

No, I wouldn't do that. And I apologize if I came across that way. I honestly didn't intend to. I respect your opinion.

I do t think they had rankings that far back. Besides, at least since they have been back, Cleveland has been nothing but RANK
