Highlights: Remembering John Adams, Cleveland’s baseball drummer and “the heartbeat of the ballpark”; Terry shares some of the moments he spent with Adams, and thoughts on what the Guardians might want to do to consider Adams’ legacy; The demise of Bally’s Sports network and what it means for the Guardians and Cavs; Why the Bally’s financial woes could be the opportunity MLB needs to improve its visibility and compete for fans with the NBA and NFL; What we learned about the Cavs in Tuesday’s loss to Miami and what Terry thinks they need to do differently; Are the Cavs good, or are fans expecting too much too soon? The Bengals showed Browns fans that finding weird ways to lose happen to other teams, too; We spend too much time talking about the Pro Bowl and why it doesn’t mean much anymore; Send us your emails about notable people you played sports against, to sports@cleveland.com; This week’s Hey, Terry! question on what legendary Cleveland sports talker Pete Franklin would have been like in today’s media landscape; and would Browns fans trade Kevin Stefanski for any other coach in the AFC North.
