    Is the traffic in Cleveland really so bad that it needs guardians?
    I was in Cleveland last week. There weren't even cars stopped at the light, let alone any traffic!

      Maybe the presence of the guardians ensures good traffic flow .

      Like I said, maybe the fact that I dont live there is why I dont really understand, but this "guardians of transportation" thing seems weird to me. Were these figures designated as guardians initially from the time they were put there? Why did they decide they needed guardians for traffic? Who are these figures? I know that among Catholics, there is a patron saint of travel named St. Christopher. Is one of these figures St. Christopher? Who are the others and where did they come from? Why do Clevelanders consider them iconic? Is there some legend where they actually helped motorists in trouble?

        Buddha is also known for watching over traffic.

          LOL. This reminds me of the flashing eyes of the Luxor sphinx in Las Vegas.

          • LOL...the people doing research into the new team name were so careful that they missed the team name "Guardians" is already owned by a roller derby team. And failed to secure the name before the announcement.

            Oops. That'll cost 'em some money.

              Hail Cesar! Another HR today, #18, a career high. On pace for 30. His previous career high was 15, in 2018 with Philly.

                  • Terry Francona to step away from the Indians/Guardians for the remainder of the season. DeMarlo Hale will take over as skipper.

                        Gotta be a salary dump, right?

                          It's certainly not for Panda's potential, LOL.

                            Yeah, i just thought there might be more behind the curtain. Even though Rosario hasn't been very good this year.

                                They released Panda before he could even get fitted for his XXXL jersey.
