Give WCSB Back To It’s Staff!
Thank you, Cleveland City Council, for passing an emergency resolution to support restoring WCSB 89.3 FM to the students and station members. The community loves you for it!

The Brook Park Dome
I am tired of all the people, including those on the council, who are opposing the Cleveland Browns' Brook Park Dome.

For starters, the Browns aren't even moving that far away. They'll be roughly 20 minutes away.

The biggest reason to support the dome is because of how much it will bring to the Northeast Ohio area, including downtown Cleveland. The Dome has the potential to land music artists that usually pass Cleveland by. It also has the potential to attract events such as The Final Four, The Super Bowl, WrestleMania, and countless other concerts, conventions, other events. All these and more now have a chance to come to Northeast Ohio via this brand-new extremely large indoor venue that can be used year-round. The entire county would benefit from all of this.

All the naysayers who hate the idea of the dome and the idea of the Cleveland Browns moving away from the downtown area will be proven wrong. The Dome will be the best thing to happen to Northeast Ohio. I guarantee it.

Cleveland Browns Stadium on Lakefront
The Skrha Family consists of Betts Skrha, daughter Betsy, son JoeRay, and many grandchildren. Our family has lived and maintained several homes on North Broadway and use the Stadium for concerts and football games. If you lose the Lakefront Stadium for Browns Games, it was destroy a tradition that started when the Browns came into existence. Snow games are the most exciting games in memory. Cleveland businesses near the stadium will be hurt. The beauty of seeing a game on Lake Erie is second to none. Our taxes paid for that stadium and it is less than 30 years old. It was built after Jacob Field and the Arena It would be a waste to tear it down. Our family all was together at the Rolling Stones concert in 2024. We also attend Browns games. Please don't let Haslam steal our ball club and our stadium away. Sincerely, The Skrha Family

The Firing of many Staff from the Radio Station
I find it very unpleasant to listen to now. A mix of music styles and highlighting the variety of the Cleveland music scene was always the radio's greatest strength, and in addition I strongly dislike the firing of such dedicated and passionate staff.

A different city will put the money made from games to better use than the our city government… clowns running the show

WCSB
I am angry with Cleveland State University and Ideastream for their decision to end the student and volunteer run WCSB radio station. WCSB was an organic, free range, grassroots expression of Cleveland culture. It's programming was diverse and offered something for everyone, and things you couldn't find anywhere else. It provided opportunity to students to get their start in broadcasting. All of this was destroyed by the decision to change the format to all jazz music programming. There was no reason, no need for this to happen. And the way it was done showed a complete disrespect for the organization that ran the station for nearly 50 years. CSU and Ideastream should be ashamed of themselves, and I add my voice to the growing call to return the station to its former incarnation.

Cleveland Browns
City of Cleveland residents deserve better leadership than what is currently being displayed in this fight over the relocation of the football team. Nearly a third of residents live at or below the poverty line. Streets and infrastructure are outdated and crumbling, basic municipal services are inefficient and poorly managed, and the Forest City's tree canopy is dying. Residents are struggling to afford the rising cost of food, medical care, property taxes, and other necessities, and nearly every publicly funded agency in Northeast Ohio is reporting budget constraints in this economy. Let's reevaluate priorities and put funds where they are truly needed and not in the Haslams' already well-lined pockets.

Browns stadium
They are the Cleveland Browns not Brookpark Browns. Bring back the proposal to build a stadium just north of the stadium, fill in the lake and build the new stadium while playing in the old one. What premier development is going in the spot of the old stadium??? I say have the owner pay until they have a respectable product on the field
That's it!

Browns Settlement
Basically Haslam bribed the mayor/city of Cleveland to leave the lakefront using money from the state. Neither the mayor or the city of Cleveland should be accepting bribes. And money should not be taken from taxpayers to be used for bribes.

Relocation of the Browns
My name is Rich Raphael. I am a proud resident of Ward 6, and I will not mince words today. Cleveland City Council, would you PLEASE reign in Mayor FIBB (no typo) he had no business making deals with anyone without at least attempting to communicate with and get something resembling informal consensus from the Committee of the Whole. Mayor FIBB has once again betrayed the citizens of Cleveland, not recognizing or not caring about the devastating economic impact moving the Browns out of Downtown will have on Cleveland's economy. This Mayor promised us that he was going to represent people and neighborhoods first and in making this deal, he has once again shown the citizens of Cleveland that he has every intention of doing the exact polar opposite of that.
PLEASE do not allow this deal to proceed at this time. PLEASE have the city (and not an outside consultant) do a detailed analysis of the negative economic impact moving the Browns will have on Cleveland's economy and then drop in in Mayor FIBB 's lap so he can see the truth, then release it to all local media outlets.
I have had quite enough of Mayor FIBB 's shenanigans, and I sincerely hope City Council had to. He should have gotten Council's input before he made a move and I feel very strongly that it's VERY disrespectful that Mayor FIBB did not.
Thank you.
