Cavs Reach for Fourth Gear, Jazz Get There First
All year long the Cavaliers have approached the regular season the way some gifted students approach school, in a warped sense of maximum efficiency – succeed with the least effort necessary.

Cavs Commandeer Clippers, Make ’Em Walk the Plank
Over the last couple weeks the Cavaliers have trickled into the rehearsal room. They’ve fiddled with the knobs, banged out a few chords, checked their levels, went outside and futzed around while someone miked the drums.

Cavs Snipers Take Out Lakers From Distance
It was an All-Star Game atmosphere at the Coliseum in Los Angeles last night, from the much-hyped final matchup of LeBron James and Kobe Bryant to the Teflon (no-stick) play on both ends of the court.

Coach Urban Meyer (@OSUCoachMeyer) endorses John Kasich for President! Must-See Vid:…
Would-Be Kings Can’t Dethrone LeBron and the Cavaliers

Ohio Tops List of States with Most Hoverboard Fires
Now that the weather is finally warming up (for now) you’ll likely see more people out and about — folks walking dogs, jogging, strolling hand-in-hand, and, no doubt, some doofus on a hoverboard.

The Path to Perfect Pizza at In Forno in Avon
It all looks so damn easy. You flour and stretch some dough. (It doesn’t even have to be perfectly round!) You spoon on a little tomato sauce. (It’s literally just crushed canned tomatoes!) You top the pies with whatever looks good. (My young nephews and nieces can do this!) You pop it in the oven…

Backyard Party: If Not Downtown, Then Where?
Downtown Cleveland gets the press on St. Patrick’s Day, naturally, but if you’re looking for an alternative setting for your green-clad debauchery, there’s plenty going on in the city’s diverse neighborhoods.

A Custody Fight Lights a Fire in “Luna Gale” at the Cleveland Play House
