- Unearthing a Cavaliers Time Capsule May 16, 2012Back at the beginning of May, I came across an interesting piece from Paul Lukas of Uni-Watch and ESPN fame. The article was about a sports fan named Andy who had lost his job and decided to sell some of his childhood sports memories to help with bills. Read the back-story here. The condensed version of the story is this: when he was a kid (late 80′s, early 90′s), Andy wrote to a ton of major league sports franchises asking for autographs, stickers, or anything they were willing to send. He got answers back from 16 teams. He saved whatever they sent in the original envelope and stored them away. And now he was selling them on eBay. “You are bidding on a piece of mail sent to me almost 20 years ago in response to fan mail. … At nine or ten years of age, I wrote letters to every professional major league basketball and hockey team, mentioning my favorite player on that team and asking for anything that they might be willing to send back. … Sixteen teams...

- Cleveland Hoping to Host NBA All-Star Weekend May 16, 2012Having not hosted All-Star festivities since the opening of the Gateway District in Cleveland, Dan Gilbert and the Cavaliers are hoping to build off of the momentum from the recent opening of the Horseshoe Casino and be a destination for the NBA’s best at some point in the near future. ”That is something definitely that we are interested in,” Gilbert said on Tuesday afternoon following the crowning of point guard Kyrie Irving as NBA Rookie of the Year. “‘I hope in the next few years we’d be able to get it. ‘I’m going to do our best and I’ll talk to the commissioner (David Stern). We’ll be talking to the league very shortly.’” The earliest Cleveland could be in the mix for the All-Star festivities would be 2015. Given the continuing evolution of the Casino (Phase II is set to open within the next few years) as well as the building of Clevleand’s Medical Mart, there would be no hurry in landing an All-Star h...
- Cavs hoping to host future NBA All-Star game May 15, 2012CLEVELAND (AP) -- Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert wants to bring the NBA All-Star game back to Cleveland. Gilbert, who opened his new downtown casino Monday, said he plans to approach the league about hosting a future All-Star weekend. He hopes Cleveland would be able to get one "in the next few years." The city last hosted the mid-season event in 1997, when the league celebrated its 50th anniversary. Gilbert said Cleveland is again poised to hold such an event because of his casino as well as a downtown convention center under construction. Houston is hosting next year's game and New Orleans will have it in 2014 after also hosting in 2008. Gilbert noted that before the game was held in Orlando this year it was in a Western Conference city eight consecutive years.
