I decided to look up most recent same-day home wins for other combinations of Ohio major league teams:

Indians-Cavaliers: October 25, 2016 (Cavs opener/ring ceremony/banner raising and Indians World Series Game 1)

Indians-Browns: September 20, 2015

Cavaliers-Browns: December 27, 2009

Reds-Bengals: September 28, 1969

Was Riverfront even capable of a same-day conversion?

On that day in 1969, the Bengals played at Nippert Stadium on the campus of Univ. of Cincinnati. The Reds played at Crosley Field.

In April of 1970, the Reds opened Riverfront and the Bengals began play there that fall.

I can remember stuff like that.... I can't remember where I put my car keys.

I knew that. I posed the question before I added the Reds-Bengals info to the earlier post.

Crew win! :handclap:

My favorite moment from the game (besides the Crew scoring): Giovinco has the ball near the Crew's penalty area. Crew defender cleanly knocks the ball away. Giovinco, predictably, goes down hard (for obvious reasons). Crew player clears the ball along the ground. Another Toronto player just stands there looking dejected as it rolls by him. :laugh:

Don't say anything at all
Ohio State had a really good football season last year even though it ended on a sour note.

Things are looking up from here. The first step is taking back control of our conference. We made it to the playoff without so much as appearing in the conference title game last year. While that was all good and nice, I think we need to send a message to the rest of the B1G by winning the conference.

One of the ads on the scoreboard at the Spring Game was for a BTN-sponsored 10K in Chicago. Shouldn't a Big Ten 10k be 14 kilometers? :D

In other news, the Cavs completed the second largest playoff comeback ever tonight. I wonder if the quiet assistant ripped them a new one again

Meanwhile, at the Worldwide Leader...



I know that politeness and tact demand that I express something like regret over folks losing their jobs but... nope, can't do it here. For absolutely everyone else laid off at ESPN recently, perhaps, but not for a guy whose literal sole reason for employment was "he trolls the largest fanbase in college football real good".

I don't wish him any (more) ill, but I'm not going to pretend to be sorry he no longer has a job. His "job" was crap, it shouldn't have existed to begin with, and I am thrilled beyond measure that it no longer exists. :D

So the Bengals are making me cry again with the draft. I turn 40 in November and the last playoff win I got to enjoy was when I was in 7th grade.

Figured I'd ask if anyone here has been to Progressive Field? If so do you have any advice about visiting like concession options/prices, places around the park, things to check out ect.? Also if I go to a grocery store in NE Ohio am I likely to find Skyline (any time I go to Ohio I always look for Skyline as it's amazing)?

I for one am glad that the NHL playoffs have been entertaining and close with minimal sweeps and series dominating blowouts, unlike the NBA. I am an NBA fan but damn.

I can tell you about Great American Ballpark.

I like Skyline too, so this will help.

Has LeBron been in the league for 12 or 13 years?

This is his 8th final???

That is getting Celtic-esque. I'm impressed.
