Hey, I just realized hitting the space bar twice on the BlackBerry results in a period being typed. How did I miss that? I'm also curious as to what Marcel Marceau's last words were. Here are his funeral arrangements.

Today was the Browns first regular season road game and that meant a visit to Paul's. Today it was pulled pork sammies and they were good. I'm not really sure what to make of today's game. Actually, I do. Uh, we're not very good. Too many early penalties, the time of possession tilted heavily to the Raiders in the second half, and we had a blocked field goal at the end which would have won the game.

I am amazed we even had a chance to win. Oakland helped out by not scoring touchdowns inside the 5-yard line in the first half and settled for field goals. Once again, we could not stop the fuckin' run. Today, it was 186 yards. That is not acceptable. Derek Anderson had two Derek Anderson-like interceptions in the first half, but somehow cobbled a late drive to put us in position to win. Thanks to Kellen Winslow with two fine catches.

The killer play was in the fourth quarter, and it was the 3rd-and-23 screen pass that went for 27 yards by the Raiders. Now, that is unacceptable. Once again, the defense looked shabby and if Josh Cribbs had not run back a kickoff, I'm not sure we would have even been that close. Next week, it's the Ravens.

Meal of Links

Since it's an EPL morning, I got to have the big breakfast at home. I'm a fan of wheat bread, but I have been eating bolillo lately. I must say, it's pretty good. Nice change of pace from your normal wheat breads.

A nice contrast of movie references from "The Simpsons". Scenes from the show next to their movie counterparts. Probably more to come.

More Rove political schemes are uncovered. No surprise here.

Exercise Yard

Notre Dame coach Charlie Weis has a MySpace page. I laughed quite a bit at that one.

None. Another great September Sunday.
