• In a rare sports story here, LeBron James may be staying in Cleveland… because if he does Iron Chef Michael Symon will cook for him monthly.

• The Taste of Syracuse festival starts up today (runs tomorrow as well, 11am-11pm).  Local potato rapper ToTs is scheduled to hit the music stage tomorrow.
