Cleveland: Bring us your tired, poor and huddled asses

Hannah's gossip sources just informed her that Brady Quinn might be dating famous gymnast Alicia Sacramone. If true, this makes perfect sense.

As you probably don't remember, Sacramone was on the U.S. Olympic team in 2008. In the team portion of the competition, the U.S. was in a dead heat with China. But then, by the grace of god, with two events left one of the Chinese girls fell on her beam routine. We had the momentum, two of the best gymnasts in the world and just needed to not fall to win the gold.

But then this happened...

and then THIS happened. (0:21)

And just like that, Sacramone choked away the gold medal for the U.S.

Of all of the female athletes in all of the world, our hometown hero and the QB of our beloved Browns, chooses to bring the girl that lost the Olympics here to Cleveland—home to athletic losers, sports misery and epic failures. Somewhere, Earnest Byner is nodding with approval. I hope Sacramone and Quinn have a nice long relationship and produce several children with no necks.
