Planes, pains and automobiles: ESPN adventures en route to Cleveland
Attitudes were anything but cavalier about reaching Cleveland on Monday (or Tuesday) as many ESPNers discovered en route to Game 6 of the NBA Finals (ABC/WatchESPN, tonight, 9 ET).
Among those expecting to spend a quiet Monday night in Cleveland only to wind up arriving a few hours before air time Tuesday morning due to flight delays and cancellations were ESPN Radio’s Mike Greenberg and SportsCenter anchors Chris McKendry and Jay Harris. And there are still a few people up in the air – like Marc Stein, who is en route to Ohio from California with responsibilities today on SportsCenter (Warriors reporter), ESPN Radio (sideline reporter) and Digital (contributing news, features and hosting TrueHoop TV episodes).
One-half of Radio’s Mike & Mike showed up at halftime of this morning’s simulcast at Cleveland’s Progressive Field – see Mike Greenberg’s Tweets below – prompting another Mike into action.
