Exhibition finale not totally meaningless
CLEVELAND — You might have yawned at the proceedings Thursday night at Cleveland Browns Stadium. Maybe you switched back and forth to the broadcast of the Republican National Convention. Perhaps you chose "Glee." Or played some Angry Birds on...

Roster mismanagement could be Bears' downfall
The franchise of Walter Payton, Gale Sayers and Red Grange could become the attack of Kahlil Bell, Armando Allen and maybe even Harvey Unga on Sunday at Detroit. Unga is on the practice squad and Bell has already been signed off the street and moved...
