Hey all, this Friday is set to be my last day with Cleveland.com covering Ohio State football and with the Buckeye Talk podcast.
Starting on Monday, I'll be covering D.C. sports for The Associated Press -- with a heavy focus on Commanders over the next few months.
Stopped me in my tracks to learn that Kent State’s football coach has the same name as Canada’s prime minister*
* - I’ve also never seen them in the same room … makes you think

None of the teams in the Frozen Four from last season would have had eligible rosters for this
Brilliant story idea (and some of the quotes really deliver)
I showed over a dozen NHL players their weird facial scans from #NHL27. (Yes, including Cole Caufield.) Their reactions were priceless.
Enjoy!

Probably doesn’t even go far enough IMO. I don’t think anyone in high school should be using this
New York City Public Schools, the largest school system in the country, has banned student-facing generative AI tools in classrooms through eighth grade for this school year, adopting one of the most aggressive AI policies in the nation. wapo.st/46Eiais

The name Lake Ontario comes from the Wendat word Ontari’io, which, appropriately, means “the lake is beautiful, the lake is big”.
The name is more than 400 years old, predating both the Confederation of Canada and the Declaration of Independence of the United States of America.
We know that America is changing. Their trading relationships, their foreign policies, their national monuments, their hydronyms.
Canadians also know that naming reality means calling it Lake Ontario – then, now and always.
Extremely rare Packers alt that I’m on board with.
Tossing the crossed-letter logo on the front is a nice touch. Font is fine for a one-off uni
Difficult to think of better bulletin board material for @RMU_Football than this
Make history and be the lucky season ticket holder to design the opening drive of the home opener when @ZipsFB hosts Robert Morris‼️

Jordan Walker is making 799k this season.
- He's earning 18.7% of his season contract just by participating.
- He earns 62.5% of his contract if he loses in the finals.
- He earns 125.1% of his contract if he wins it all.
Love that for Jordan 💰💰💰

Dylan Cease is the first Blue Jays pitcher to start the ASG since Roy Halladay (2009). Cristopher Sánchez is the first Phillies pitcher to start the ASG since ... Roy Halladay (2011).

If you had to pick 1 NBA player to be a teammate with, who would it be?
"I would say it would be Kawhi Leonard" 👀
Let’s shoot the 3 with Scottie Barnes.
Favorite pre-game music? Which NBA player would he pick as a teammate? Thoughts on Leonard Hamilton?
Catch @ScottBarnes561 Thursday, 8pm ET on ESPNU. @tedemrich

The fact Canada is the only nation setting up home base in Canada during the @FIFAWorldCup is a missed opportunity. We need more midsized stadiums and training infrastructure in our country.
