You know what, you're right!!!

Did Rocky give up after Drago beat his face into a bloody pulp?! NO! he picked his dead ass up off the mat and beat that unstoppable human with his heart and determination!

Did Frodo give in to the temptation of the ring in his deepest, darkest hour with the dark lord Sauron closing in on him? NO!! he delivered that ring into the fires in whence it came!

Did Rudy give up when he was told he was to small, and not athletic enough or good enough to ever amount anything but a piece of shit? NO! he blocked that kick!

So do you think Lebron will give up after his whole team has been decimated with injuries, gets his head gashed, and the whole weight of the city of Cleveland and its 51 years of futility on his shoulders? NO! he will deliver that ring!

Cavs in 6!!

LeBron's got a ring. Also, if you'd included any examples that weren't fictional...

Using the Steelers to give a Cleveland team hope? Nice.

No one noticed the irony in #5? Also, the 2011 World Series Game 6 was the best comeback I've seen in any sports championship. I fucking hate the Cardinals, too, but I have to give them props for pulling that out.

I don't like the teams in my area.

Although, that might actually make me more interested in the game because then I'd be rooting for Cleveland and their championship drought.

Baseball is just so fucking boring. Its die hard fans are also the most pretentious.

"The game is really cerebral!"

The manager in Bull Durham says otherwise.

3 down, 1 to go. How the fuck does your team lose when you've got someone that's a virtual lock for 40 points per game?
