CLEVELAND, Ohio -- "Saturday Night Live" brought its "Weekend Update" to Cleveland for the Republican National Convention Wednesday night.

Che and partner Colin Jost broadcast the segment live from Quicken Loans Arena, riffing on the events of the first three nights of the convention. On Senator Ted Cruz's speech in which he refused to endorse Donald Trump, Che joked, "It's like giving a desperate toast at your ex's wedding...>> view originalTed Cruz convention filibuster: Darcy cartoon
CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Last night at the Republican convention, Ted Cruz didn't read "Green Eggs and Ham" like he did during his infamous Congressional filibuster.

That Cruz would induce people to boo him off the stage isn't surprising. What is surprising is that the Trump camp allowed him on the stage dur..>> view originalIn the national pastime, as Cleveland Indians win, time passes ...
CLEVELAND, Ohio – When I was a kid, which is when Harry Truman was giving 'em hell in the White House, the three biggest sports in this country were baseball, boxing and horse racing, in that order. You could scratch horse racing in my native Texas because the conservative religious sects there thought pari-mutuel betting led to stud poker (its very name was faintly salacious), games of craps in alleyways and three-card monte. Boxing has been marginalized for years because, well, we all saw ..>> view originalCheck out the swag given to members of the media visiting ...

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- It all started in Lakewood Township, New Jersey, about 10 years ago. The Phillies' three-headed monster of Matt Maloney, Josh Outman and Carlos Carrasco -- a pair of left-handed 20-somethings and a 19-year-old wunderkind -- stymied opposing hitters. The A-ball BlueClaws captured the South Atlantic League championship. "It was not fun," said Indians catcher Chris Gimenez, who played for Class A Lake County that year. "Not at all.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Chris Antonetti says he's not looking for an upgrade at catcher even though starter Yan Gomes could be lost for the season after separating his right shoulder Sunday against the Twins. Still, with the Aug. 1 trade deadline approaching, and left fielder Michael Brantley suffering yet another setback with his comeback from right shoulder surgery, it would seem logical that Antonetti, Indians president of baseball operations, would talk to Milwaukee about catcher Jonathan Luc..>> view originalRNC 2016: Tennessee delegation on Cleveland hospitality, Jimmy ...
