5. I leave Friday for 2 weeks in New England. What are your summer travel plans, if any?
Lord willing- I'll complete the rest of the Ohio (River) to (Lake) Erie Bike Trail. Cincinnati- Xenia- Columbus- Cleveland (I've done around 170 of the 300 or so miles)
Does that include part of the Ohio and Erie Canal Towpath,? You would go within a couple of blocks of my old office, in Barberton.

1. Brownie the Elf seems to be making a big comeback on Browns gear. Do you like the elf?
He's "Okay"
2. Cleveland Browns Stadium aka bankrupt first energy.....needs a new nickname. What do you think would be a good new nickname for it...now that the Browns appear to be poised to become winners.
CBS
3. Name someone you think has been an underrated as an all time athlete, i.e. someone who hasn't really gotten his due. This can be from any sport from any era.
Clay Mathews
4. What is your opinion about the so called "unwritten rules" in sports? Things such as..celebrating a home run can get you beaned. Or running up the score. (The US women beat the Thailand women in soccer yesterday....by a score of 13-0...and are being accused of being unsportsmanlike for running up the score and celebrating after scoring some of the later goals)

Yes, it does Gip. And unknowingly I was down that way a few years ago when I rode from Independence to Massillon.... https://www.ohiotoerietrail.org/interactive-map/
For me, the logistic part is Columbus to Massillon. I suppose I can find a few cheap hotels along the way after a 50 mile day.

Here are today's survey questions, and I admit that I took some of these straight from the WKNR Rizzo show that is going on now, plus a couple of others. Give your answers.

Yes, love the Elf.

Amleto Monacelli, Mark Price, George Gervin come to mind.

The USA women went a little overboard, but the real question is how do you qualify for a World Cup and give up 13 goals?
5. I leave Friday for 2 weeks in New England. What are your summer travel plans, if any?
Chengdu, China and Guilin, Hong Kong in August.

Amleto Monacelli,
I guess this person is underrated...never heard of him...her?

The Ohio and Erie Canal Towpath ends down just south of New Philadelphia. So, yes, how do you get from Columbus over to there? Is there a rail to trail path? The map you show seems to put you on a number of just regular streets.

It's not completed yet.? So yes, there are spots where you are on roads. A lot of riding through Columbus involves that. Plus, the Towpath currently ends at Harvard Avenue in Cleveland, so you're using city streets to get to the lake. One problem I had a few years ago was navigting the poorly marked route through downtown Akron. There's around a mile break until the path resumes next to the Aeros stadium. (Downtown Akron was built right on top of what was the canal.

I think they have completed that section through Akron. I know that they were doing a lot of work on it. If it is not done then it would be only for a very short distance. Is that part of what you plan to traverse this summer? If so, when? I may go check it out for you (though I will be gone the next couple of weeks)

Sorry he just doesn't look like a football player to me, just a little twirp.

Browns stadium
3. Name someone you think has been an underrated as an all time athlete, i.e. someone who hasn't really gotten his due. This can be from any sport from any era.
Bill Bradley, the Princeton Rhodes Scholar brain on the court who unselfishly kept the many stars on the NY Knicks team working together as one team. Later Senator Bill Bradley.

If somebody purposely takes out you best player, you go after theirs in retaliation.
5. I leave Friday for 2 weeks in New England. What are your summer travel plans, if any?
I'm on vacation from the polyboard and hiking the mountains of Colorado as of today. Trumpettes will miss my harassment. ?

Of course! I grew up with him.

I'm with Texas Ag on this...Browns' Stadium

Clay Mathews Jr. When he was in his mid 30s, John Madden (then announcing) said he was the best LB in the game. Can't believe he is not yet a HOF'er

1) Women's World Cup Soccer..Point differential is used as tie breakers..That's important. 2) Celebrating a goal in a worldwide tournament held once every 4 years? I don't blame those gals a bit. 3) I'm good with "Hurt my guy & I'll hurt yours".

Heading to Traverse City, Michigan to visit elderly cousin & will also fly fish the Sturgeon & Au Sable rivers as I have done before. Another stop will be "Tony's I75 Restaurant", where their BLT has a POUND of bacon. On my bucket list of stops & may send me TO the "bucket". LOL
