    Other than Detroit, is there a major city that sucks as much as Cleveland?

    Seattle.

    Hope this helps.
    You've obviously never been to Detroit or Cleveland.

    All three cities have shitty weather. Detroit and Cleveland have more black people though...I see where you are going with this.

    i think Seattle has great weather, and no I'm not joking. The fact it's raining today is fucking awesome....long overdue.

    Rain in August is always special.

    slightly OT.... what the hell is the deal with seattletimes restricting access to blogs now? do you guys actually pay for that stuff?

    first they swap condotta for jude, then ask for money... excellent business strategy

    They started asking for money first. The print industry is dying, so they are trying to do something to stay afloat.

    if you can't delete your cookies in year 2013, then let us suggest playing with gas and matches somewhere along Hwy 30, right outside of Scappoose....right before the exit where you get off to the city of Montlake.

    Did someone already post this?

    The most miserable sports city in America has to be Los Angeles. All those people in the basin and no NFL?...... and there doesn't seem to be much local(commercial) interest in the NFL returning. Last time I was down there, LA had about seven talk-radio KJR's all competing for who could rip their local pro and major college teams more, and several of the negafans (like us) have sponsors and make a living from their call-ins. Then there's the LA Times, the godfather of all local sports hating rags including the bankrupt Seattle Times.

    Los Angeles is not a suitable location for Pac-12 offices. UW and non-LA members should insist on another locale for the conference headquarters such as a place north of San Francisco in marijuana-wine country. It might help Pac-12 management reach a hasty agreement with DirecTV and anybody else wishing to serve the sporting public.

    The Pac-12's media group is headquartered in SF. The main office is in Walnut Creek.

    LA has Race's Lakers, Race's Kings, and Race's Bruins. That's way better than anything Seattle has.
