Cleveland Sports: By The Numbers – #21
August 3, 2009Trade Deadline Analysis: Siding With Shapiro
August 4, 2009While We’re Waiting serves as the early morning gathering of WFNY-esque information for your viewing pleasure. Have something you think we should see? Send it to our tips email in the sidebar.
I was directed to this video late last night and it may just be the best Delonte video yet. It is amazing that all it takes is a near 20-minute wait in a KFC parking lot and you get this jackpot of a freestyle. Nothing is off limits. KFC, McDonalds, Chipotle… All covered with the help of Do or Die Twista and Lil’ Boosie. Embedding the video would not exactly jive with our guidelines, but if you do not mind a little colorful language do yourself a favor and catch these seven minutes of YouTube gold. The image is also a direct link. Do Enjoy. [YouTube]

Taking a page out of Brady Quinn’s book, Daniel Gibson will be hosting “Daniel Gibson Day” at Cedar Point. He’ll fittingly be hanging out near the three-point shooting game. Which Cavalier will follow Derek Anderon and host one at Memphis Kiddie Park? [Stepien Rules]

“Honestly, [Lake County’s Nickel Beer Night] was not even worth the price of admission. That is a sad, sad way to pay tribute to, admittedly, one of the darkest nights in Cleveland sports history. But if you’re going to do it, do it right. Don’t tease and then deliver 5-ounce cups, two at a time for an hour and call that nickel beer night.” [’64 and Counting]

“If he’s going to wear that number, he has to learn how to reach back and grab his hamstring when he gets beat like that.” – longtime Browns radio color analyst Doug Dieken, throwing a playful jab at former Cleveland Pro Bowl cornerback Hanford Dixon, after the current Browns corner who wears Dixon’s old jersey number of 29, Corey Ivy, was beaten on a pass play.

Hot sauce in my baaaaaaaaag….
“Gibson will be hanging out near the three-point shooting game.” Cedar Point patrons will be looking on in horror as he clanks one shot after another, then has the ball stolen from him by a 3 year old boy who simply couldn’t take it anymore…
Wow! lol He must be really bored this offseason.
I was completely unaware that KFC cups had a bucket handle. That’s pretty awesome.
OMG… that video is too much… too funny. How can you freestyle about Chipotle and raspberry tea for 8 f-ing minutes?!? “We’re like the same person!!!”
“Four different KINDS of parfait on ya a**!” Classic. What’s the over/under on Delonte coming to camp overweight this year?
god theyre stoned out of their minds hahahahaha…..thank god for Delonte to bring me outta this Indians funk…..i love him more than life itself sometimes ha!
Geez. I think I had more fun watching my neighbors do yardwork from the porch.
Is Delonte wearing sunglasses in what appears to be the middle of the night?
gilbert owns fathead, right?
…and the nba is obviously not testing for weed – i love that game!
@MC: Well, they technically do test players for many drugs (including for weed), but veteran players are subject to only one test and that’s in training camp. After that, they aren’t tested anymore, so it’s a bit of a joke.
The only exception is if the league feels it has reasonable cause. If a neutral party arbitrator agrees with the league that there is just cause, or reasonable suspicion….what ever you want to call it, then the league can test 4 more times within a 6 week period.
Caught wind of this last night as well. My favorite part is when the Jamacian KFC employee comes out and keeps saying “Delonte West. Cleveland Cavaliers” Oh to be a fly on the wall when this comes across David Stern’s desk.
Delonte is not stoned. Come on Guys!
