Comcast Corporation and the Big Ten Network announce the two entities have come to an agreement to distribute the Big Ten Network on the cable platform beginning Aug. 15, in time for the college football season. BTN, however, didn’t win in this negotiation.
Originally, BTN wanted its programming distributed on an expanded basic level on both […]

I know plenty of golf fans who will attend this year’s Bridgestone Invitational at Firestone Country Club. But those people aren’t enough to drive a tournament’s gate. You need the casual fan for both a yearly boost and to build a future base.
The decision by Tiger Woods to undergo knee surgery and miss the rest […]

During Thursday’s stop in Canton, Browns rookies were told dozens of Hall of Famers whose busts they were checking out were drafted low or not at all.
The Super Bowl champion Giants sent their rookies through shortly before the Cleveland tour. A giant among Giants, 6-foot-8 tackle Dylan Thiry, admitted his own enshrinement seems a zillion […]

My favorite Korean dish is bibimbap. To this foreigner, it seems like a feast that should be reserved for special occasions. But to the locals, it’s just lunch on a Tuesday.
Bibimbap is rice in a large bowl topped with artfuly arranged vegetables and an egg. Imagine the egg as the hub and the vegetables as the spokes […]

It was a long road trip. Some things went our way, some things didn’t. It was more work then adventure and when we turned the key in our apartment door, we were relieved to be back in our home town away from home town. It’s a rip that we are paying for an apartment we’re […]

Wednesday was a busy day at the Pro Football Hall of Fame. It’s summer, so attendance is higher than usual with families stopping by to visit. But the Hall of Fame staff had its plate full with rookies from the Cleveland Browns, New York Giants, Houston Texans and the Saints in town to take […]

You know about Eric Wright. The Browns are banking on him to help save their shaky cornerback situation.
At this time last year, he was a No. 53 overall draft pick who had “character issues.”
The Browns have as much reason as anyone to research Jimmy Williams - and they did.
In 2006, he went to the Falcons […]

Coming out of minicamp, there are questions Browns coaches and personnel men need to entertain seriously. We’ll cover some of them during the march toward training camp.
Including …
1, Does right guard Rex Hadnot seem to fit coach Steve Marshall’s system within Rob Chudzinski’s offense, or is it best to wait for Ryan Tucker to come […]

The question has exasperated my daughter for 20 years. When people find out she’s a vegetarian, many ask, “So, do you eat fish?”
Out of earshot of the questioner, our family often jokes, “Is fish a vegetable?”
So you can imagine my grin and my curiosity when I stumbled across a can at the grocery store here […]

Would you bet a nickel on the Browns breaking through this year? A buck? Your Clint Stickdorn rookie card? A bunch?
How could you bet on them after all the disappointments and wrong turns of the expansion era? How can you not love what they seem to have become in relation to what they were?
