Yes, YOU, Mr. Grover Cleveland, can FUCK OFF! The only president of the United States ever elected to two non-consecutive terms, and I say FUCK YOU! Why? Because the Cleveland Browns lost again, this time to the Giants, 24-3. This gives them a total of 6 points scored in their last two games. WTF!? Fat, ugly, small-dicked guys with B.O. score more than that! I would never curse the town that is the cradle of my teams, so I must take out my wrath on long-dead former president. Fuck you, Grover Cleveland!! ---

Hey! **HEY!!!** You are insulting my kinfolk, here! How _dare_ you! I am **related** to Grover Cleveland! (Really!) Take that back, you weenie pus ball! You sniveling pork rind eater! (I don’t know where that came from, but I’m going with it.) You snot boy! Don’t you go cursing my relatives! Phooey on you! (I just can’t come up with a good “fuck you rant” for someone who is flaming … _Grover Cleveland_, even if I am related to him. That’s the best rant I could muster. Sorry.) ---

are you kidding me? Grover Cleveland? Super Grover Cleveland? This guy did more in his presidency than you can even dream of. He bent bars with his furry blue hands, he single handedly taught the children of America the difference between “near” and “far” he taught us not to discriminate on the color of our skin whether we are white or black or red or purple. Grover is my hero and I will not have you knocking him, you snufulupagus squicker. ---

Tell ya what yosemitebabe, give me the name of some relative (a name that includes “Cleveland”)whom you REALLY don’t like, and we can sub him/her for Grover. Fair enough? ---

Don’t you be dissin’ now on the Stud Muffin of Buffalo, man. Dude was a _serious_ bachelor, had his little harem at night, then went out during the day as Sheriff of Buffalo and strung people up for breakin’ the law. He was a _hanging_ sheriff, man, and one big dude you didn’t want to piss off. So get off your high horse before the big G.C. comes down and lowers tarriffs all _over_ your ass. ---

The way things are going, it looks like I will run out of Cleveland stuff to curse long before then. **2sense** Thank you for your offer, but **Little Nemo** beat me to it. ---

You could always pick on Moses Cleaveland, who founded the place. Or maybe the Governor of Connecticut who gave up the Western Reserve. (Too bad; I’ve always felt that “Cleveland, Connecticut” is far more euphonious than Ahia \<-[adopting Cincy accent]. ---

This thread made me laugh so hard last night I got the hiccups, and had trouble falling asleep last night because of them. As a Cleveland-the-city-hater, I hope you have seven more hysterical rants to go this season (I really hope that my **Eagles** help you out with one on 10 December.) ---
