WTH? Survey shows Ohioans swear the most in the country
Read enough police blotter reports and there’s enough salt in there to cover a stadium full of bagged peanuts, even with some of the language redacted by scarlet-faced report clerks. It turns out you don’t have to hang around a police station to hear bad language in Ohio. Just pick ...
McDonald’s introducing new menu item today
McDonald’s is unwrapping, so to speak, a Premium McWrap today, consisting of fresh vegetables and chicken in the form of a breast filet. All of it will be combined with sauces in a warm tortilla that will be served in “hand-held package to fit the busy on-the-go lifestyle.” The new ...
Fines for texting and driving start today
Starting today, people who text and drive can be cited when a new state law prohibiting the offense goes into effect —ending a six month trial period. Drivers older than 18 have to commit another violation before they can be ticketed for texting, which carries a $150 fine. Drivers who ...
OSU has been down this road before
Oh gosh, don’t repeat this nightmare. Ohio State was undefeated and not allowed to go to a bowl game under the Big Ten’s no-repeat rule but could wrap up its second straight national championship with a final-game victory over arch-rival Michigan, coached by Ohio native Bo Schembechler, in his first ...
Commentary: Are NFL players too big?
Confession. I’m too fat. I eat too many cookies, too much ice cream and, when I can find where my wife hides them, chocolate bits.That’s why I’m fat.I’m going to guess football players get fat other ways — and just plain heavier — including on drugs.And that’s part of the ...
Dream Team? Don’t forget the 1960 U.S. Olympic squad
I’m getting a little tired of this.Any Dream Team in basketball that doesn’t include Oscar Robertson and Jerry West isn’t much of a Dream Team, because there’s still room for Magic Johnson and Larry Bird, Kobe Bryant and LeBron James. Oh, and Michael Jordan.I couldn’t tell you if the current ...
Commentary: Will Reds regret trading prospects?
A few years from now, the Reds may look back and say, “We probably shouldn’t have traded that guy.” And “that guy” could be Juan Francisco or Ronald Torreyes or Yasmani Grandal or Yonder Alonzo or Donnie Joseph or anybody else who is a prospect but not yet an established ...
Sales tax for online purchases would ‘level the playing field,’ local merchants say
Requiring all Internet retailers to collect sales tax on every purchase made online would level the playing field with bricks-and-mortar businesses, create an estimated 11,000 retail jobs across Ohio and give states and counties a much-needed revenue boost, according to proponents of a bill dubbed the “Marketplace Fairness Act” that ...
Commentary: Ex-Red Dunn not finished
The Chicago White Sox are hanging around first place again, and one of the reasons is designated hitter Adam Dunn.Yes, that Adam Dunn, who more than a few were dismissing last season when he handed in a .159 batting average, 11 homers (about 30 fewer than expected) and knocked in ...
Commentary: Music an antidote for sports talk
Love sports talk radio.Just love it, national or local.In fact, I was surprised when I drove my wife’s car the other day and I heard music. It was from an FM station.“You have FM radio?” I asked.“So do you,” she said.Well, I checked, and she was correct. And I’ve got ...
