    Probably heard "Cleveland" and was off the train before they even told him he had the job.

    I liked his covering of the team though. Good luck to him....maybe he can beat some of the Cavs 1 on 1

    Congrats to Chris! I've talked with him in person and via email and he is a really nice guy. He would read this forum from time and time and was a big fan.

    Good for Chris. I hope he loves his new life in the rust belt. I wish it was Jaynes though instead of Haynes.

    Why can't Jaynes, Canzano, or Quick leave? Why do the decent ones like Buckner and Haynes always leave?

    Hopefully they go with another young reporter. I've really enjoyed the two kids doing the OSU beat. Much better than some of the old, jaded people in this market.

    Because other newspapers want to hire writers with talent and ability?

    Not only does he move to the best NBA team, better yet, he is no longer a Comcast employee.

    He "landed the beat." Is he the #1 Cavs writer on the paper, or is he just an Asst. Beater?
