Best by the Number - Cleveland Edition

Below is a list of Cleveland sports players according to their jersey number. By some players I will be writing some stuff like other players who had a chance of being in that spot, or some information about the player. Please also note that since some players had multiple numbers in their tenure in Cleveland, there may be players next to numbers that don't seem to fit, but they do!
  1. Terrell Brandon
  2. Jhonny Peralta
  3. Craig Ehlo - Also considered were Bob Sura, Matt Stover & Derek Anderson
  4. Phil Dawson - The current Brown who has been on the team the longest
  5. Steve Kerr - Many people are unaware that Kerr even played for the Cavaliers
  6. Larry Nance - Also wore # 22

  11. Zydrunas Illguaskus - "Big Z" 'nuff said
  12. Roberto Alomar
  13. Omar Vizquel
  14. Larry Doby - Most people here might put Browns QB Otto Graham, but Doby deserves to be on this list more than anyone else. Larry Doby was the first African American to play in the American League, and while it's true he started playing after Jackie Robinson he was the first African American to play in American League ball-parks

My Top Ten Favorite Cavs Players

It is now a little after the All-Star break in the NBA, and I've decided to unveil my 10 favorite people who played for the Cleveland Cavaliers.


10- Craig Ehlo: Ehlo is probably most famous for guarding Michael Jordan in the playoffs when Jordan traveled (of course not called) and hit a shot to beat the Cavs.


9-Andre Miller: Miller was supposed to be the point-guard of the future, well he wasn't, but he still makes my list.


8-Bobby Phills: he started his career as a backup to Gerald Wilkins (who by the way I can't stand), and ended as a good player. Sadly his untimely death shortened his career that could have been much better.


7-Anderson Varejao: the big haired F/C is the sparkplug that the Cavs need off the bench.


6-Zydrunus Illgauskus: this YU (Yuguslavia University) graduate has made a real name for himself in the NBA.


5-Terrell Brandon: learned from Mark Price how to be an NBA point guard.


4-John "Hot Rod" Williams: he probably would not have been this high if not for his great nickname.


3-LeBron James: The King is great, but it's time he takes the Cavs to the next level.


2-Mark Price: Price has made the most 3 pointers by a Cavalier, he is also first amongst Cavs in assists, steals and free-throw percentage.


1-Brad Daugherty: if not for knee problems he could have been on of the best centers in NBA history. Also when I was on the ASHAR Basketball Team I wore the number 43 in honor of Daugherty who had retired that year.



Pictured are Daugherty (43), Price (25), and James (23)

This Date in Sports History

On December 29th 1978, Ohio State head coach Woody Hayes blows up in the closing stages of the Gator Bowl with the Buckeyes losing to Clemson 17-15. When Clemson linebacker Charlie Bauman intercepts an Ohio State pass and runs into the sideline area, Hayes sets off a brief bench-emptying scuffle. The next day, the 65 year old OSU mentor will be fired after 28 years with the team, a 205-61-10 record and 5 national titles.

Happy Birthday to...

  1. Richie Sexson, Born in 1974
  2. Laveranues Coles, Born in 1977

And an early Happy Birthday to Cleveland star LeBron James who will be celebrating his birthday tomorrow, December 30th
