Gov.-elect John Kasich to allow reporters to... →
I’d always like Kasich, even though we might not agree on much politically. But even before he was elected as governor, he’s set up an adversarial relationship with the media, and that doesn’t portend well for the next four years in Columbus.

Quinn and Wimbley gone. I have no idea how these moves will pan out; I like that the new management understands that massive change is a necessity.

On the same day that I’m hosting Craft Beer School, I also get a new version of the greatest rock ‘n roll album ever. I think I should just go ahead and schedule a vacation day right now.

OK. We keep Mangini but lowball Josh Cribbs? Not a good way to get started, Mr. Holmgren.

This is good. I didn’t get to ski Laurel Mountain the one season it was open; I’ll be looking forward to the chance, whether it comes next winter or later.

Ohio State Alumni: ALL-ALUMNI FOOTBALL TEAM →
I have just one problem with this list, as it was selected by the folks who receive the OSU alumni association magazine. Cris Carter had an amazing career as a professional football player, and has done well since, especially in his role as a mentor to young NFL players. HE ALSO SIGNED WITH AN AGENT WHILE HE WAS STILL PLAYING COLLEGE FOOTBALL. In my mind, that’s an automatic...
