Cleveland should target neighborhood investment, rather than spreading it around, for the best return, according to a new Cleveland State University study. It suggests focusing on a broad swath of the East Side, stretching from East 55th Street to the edge of University Circle. Mayor Frank Jackson wants to put $65 million in public and foundation money there. We'll discuss the study and the plan.  We'll hear the latest from the Statehouse in Columbus.  Plus, the Cavaliers reach a deal to wear Goodyear's Wingfoot logo on their jerseys next season.
