12 Days of a Cleveland Christmas: Day 1

For those who may be new to the site in the last 12 months, things get a little interesting around here at Christmas time. As a way to say thank you for reading and supporting WFNY, we like to give things away. You know, things that Cleveland sports fans want. We’ve got a nice looking prize vault this year. Hopefully you will agree and participate.

Here’s how the giveaway works. Every weekday from now until Christmas Eve, we will give away a Cleveland themed prize. To enter, you need only to respond in the comment section in the appropriate manner. The winner each day will be randomly selected and notified by email. (Which means you better make sure that the email address you use to comment here is a legit one.) I cannot guarantee delivery by Christmas. Some of the prizes (like tickets) haven’t even been printed and mailed to us yet. We’ll do our best with the things we have in hand though. Only one member of a household can enter each day, and only one winner per household during the length of this contest. Just spreading the love around.

Let’s get to today’s giveaway-

Today’s Prize:

We’re giving away a Lake Erie Monsters prize pack. Included is a pair of tickets to any upcoming Monsters game of your choice, and a really nice Monsters hooded sweatshirt. The sweatshirt (already purchased) is an XL. I think they run a tad small, but are very soft and a great looking item.

I recently went to a Monsters game and had a good time. If you’ve never been before, I highly recommend it.

Today’s question:

Before I ask the question, remember that to enter you need to 1) re-state the question and 2) answer the question. Simple right? OK, today’s question is this- Aside from the Indians, Browns and Cavaliers: what team or sport do you most closely follow?

Comments must be posted by midnight Cleveland time in order to qualify for the drawing. Check back tomorrow at noon for the results. Remember, only one entry is allowed, but you may still comment to add to the discussion.

    Aside from the Indians, Browns and Cavaliers: what team or sport do you most closely follow?

    I guess I would have to say Michigan football, but I honestly just follow the pro sports as a whole more than anything else (other than the Indians, Browns, and Cavs, specifically). There really isn’t any one specific team or one specific league outside of those 3 that get much more attention than any others.

    NFL for sure. 3 fantasy leagues keeps you interested.

    I do love the MLB though. Is there anything better than taking a day off to sit in the sun and have a couple beers while watching a noon o’clock game?

    No, is the answer.

  • 5haun

    Aside from the Indians, Browns and Cavaliers: what team or sport do you most closely follow?

    I go to a few lake Erie Monsters games a year and pick out a few favorite players each year, but it’s a little hard to follow a minor league hockey team. For example, my favorite 2 players to watch last year (Ryan Bacashihua and Shawn Belle) are both gone this year.

    I also follow the Chagrin Falls High School football team because my girlfriend went there and they have been deep into the playoffs the last few years.

  • Jon

    Aside from the Indians, Browns and Cavaliers: what team or sport do you most closely follow?
