DAILY LOOKOUT – 5.12.10
STUNNED AT HOME – CELTICS PULL AWAY – Game 5 was one the Cavs would rather forget. Zac Jackson discusses what the Cavs do now.
CUETO’S ONE-HITTER BEATS PIRATES 9-0 – A few more inches, and Johnny Cueto pitches one of the best games in Cincinnati Reds history.
WESTBROOK, TRIBE TOP KC 8-2 – Westbrook got his first win since reconstructive right elbow surgery. No matter how he got there, that sure feels good.
COULD THIS BE THE YEAR? – Hal McCoy’s take: “Based on early returns, very early returns, there is no reason why the 2010 Reds can’t finish above .500 and no reason why it can’t compete for the NL title.”

Thanks for covering the Cleveland Gladiators: AF1 games! I hope FSO broadcasts more of their games so they can build a bigger fan base and stick around!
On the day that long time announcer Joe Tait gets recognition from the Basketball HOF, the Cavs play a very pathetic game for the playoffs. As a Cavs fan, all I have to say is that there better be a whole lot of effort in game 6 or else there need to be some changes besides signing LeBron to a long term contract!!
I like the use of charts on @FoxSportsOH. Visual info is great!

FOX Sports Takes "This Town" Into Your Town
FOX Sports has teamed up with the band O.A.R. to take their hit song, "This Town" into its sports towns. As the centerpiece for college and pro sports both nationally and regionally, the song is the focus of FOX Sports Ohio’s Cincinnati Reds promotions and has also been used for Cleveland Cavaliers and Columbus Blue Jackets games.
“Music conveys passion and elicits excitement or emotion and I think sports does the same thing,” said Alex Slemc, the director of marketing for FOX Sports Ohio. “And ‘This Town’ elicits a lot of hometown pride with your team."
Formed in 1996 in Rockville, MD, O.A.R. (an acronym for the band's full moniker, Of a Revolution) coalesced around lead singer/rhythm guitarist Marc Roberge, lead guitarist Richard On, saxophonist Jerry DePizzo, bassist Benj Gershman, and drummer Chris Culos. Roberge had known Culos since childhood; he also played in local bands with On and Gershman. DePizzo, who hails from Youngstown, met the other Maryland natives at Ohio State University. The band is planning tour stops in Cleveland and Columbus this July.
