From the Mailbag: Did you get a new sports guy?

From: Steve in Macedonia

Q: I noticed a new sports guy on your newscast tonight. Where did he come from?

A: Ah, you must mean Al Pawlowski. Nice ethnic name like Macek, don't you think? Ironically, at one time we were both air personalities on Smooth Jazz, 107.3 The Wave and tried to transform the station to "All Polkas, All The Time", but the bosses wouldn't listen and went with Kenny G. instead.

Back to your question, Al is "on loan" to us from SportsTime Ohio where he is the host of many of the Indians programming you see on the cable channel like Tribe Report and Indians on Deck.

Al's helping us out so our other sports anchors, Jim Donovan and Dave Chudowski, can sneak in some summer vacation time before a busy August including Browns Pre Season Football and the 2008 Summer Olympics from Beijing, China.
