Crennel cuts celebration short, said Browns have a lot of work to do
BEREA — Romeo Crennel opted against any celebratory backflips, cartwheels or somersaults. (Braylon Edwards took care of that in pregame introductions.)

Cavaliers reserves can’t find way to win against Celtics in preseason matchup
PITTSBURGH — The defending champion Boston Celtics had four proven NBA players on the floor down the stretch. The Cavaliers had one, at most, in training camp invitee Ronald Dupree, and even he has only an outside chance of making the team.
