What I learned in Week 3 of the NFL season

- Greg Schiano may put on a tough-guy look and act, but once he's fired after this season, he'll look as tough as Clint Eastwood singing "I Will Always Love You."

- Houston's new goal for this season is to not trail by two scores heading into the 4th quarter.

- Eli Manning may have thrown 8 interceptions so far this season, but for as much pressure as he's felt and how much he's been hit in the pocket, I'm surprised he's been able to get off eight passes.

- I'm not sure why Josh Freeman isn't the starting waterboy for Tampa Bay at this point.

- Jim Harbaugh is going to request that the team proposes a trade with Kansas City - Colin Kaepernick for Alex Smith straight-up.

- Jacksonville would have trouble beating some college teams.

- Pittsburgh and Philadelphia may be engaged in a Keystone State turnover battle. Whoever wins also loses, which both have done quite well to this point in the season (1-5).

- RGII may soon give a speech that starts like this: "Three score and 21 points ago, we found ourselves in a hole we couldn't get out of - time and time again...."

- Rex Ryan won a bet where he said, "I bet you my team can commit 20 penalties for over 160 yards and still win."

- After his playing days are done, Philip Rivers is bound to star in a film called Anger Management II - F**k You.

Another look at "The Nightly Show" with Larry Wilmore

After its first week, I gave The Nightly Show with Larry Wilmore a B+ grade. While I didn't think the show appeared to be perfect by any stretch of the imagination, I also liked the Daily Show  meets Politically Incorrect vibe I got from it, and thought, with the proper adjustments, the show would indeed provide a great fill-in for The Colbert Report . In the show's succeeding weeks, however, I've been less impressed by it and think that if it doesn't make certain adjustments, it could be in jeopardy of losing many long-time viewers of the show's time slot. One major issue I think the show's had to this point is a lack of direction. It's been unable to decide whether it wants to be a comedy show with serious conversation sprinkled in or a serious show with comedy sprinkled in. It's almost as if the show's writers want to give The Nightly Show a Real Time with Bill Maher feel. The problem with that idea or format is the fact Real Time is an hour lon...

My first book review of "Penetrating the Heart of Life: Ambiguous In Thought, Ambivalent In Feeling"

Well, I received my first book review on this poetry-compilation book I completed and published late last year, but have finally gotten around to marketing now. The reviewer gave it 5 out of 5 stars and said: "I enjoyed the poetic journey the writer has taken me on. From darkest days and hopeful optimism to the conclusion of hope realized. The visual images that the poem titled "Room Temperature" elicits, made me think of the song, "Horse With No Name" sung by the band America. In a similar manner, another poem – "Deafening Sigh-lence" reminded me a great deal of Simon & Garfunkel’s song, "The Sound of Silence". There are so many poems in this book that I related to, that I felt a connection to the author and felt that we were traveling on this journey together." http://www.lulu.com/shop/craig-rozniecki/penetrating-the-heart-of-life-ambiguous-in-thought-ambivalent-in-feeling/paperback/product-18677501.html

A closer look at the Scramble With Friends power-ups

I am unashamed to admit that I'm a nerd. My idea of a good time is playing a word game like Boggle or Scrabble. Thankfully, I (and many others) can play such games via Facebook and/or my (our) cell phone(s). While it seems that cheating has become more commonplace in these games (Words With Friends in particular) than San Diego has had nice weather, I've yet to give in to that craze. One element present with the game Scramble With Friends (Boggle) not present in Words With Friends (Scrabble) are legal boosts called "power-ups," which cost a number of tokens from the 15 available. I've now tried all five power-ups, including the latest one which costs money. So, in case anyone's curious about playing the game or giving these power-ups a gander, here's a rundown of them all: Freeze - I think this is probably my favorite of all the power-ups. With the freeze, time stands still for a matter of seconds, which allows you more time to find words and improve...
