What I learned in Week 7 of the NFL season...

In Week 7 of the NFL season, I learned...

- ...Buffalo is as unpredictable as a David Lynch movie while tripping acid.

- ...Colin Kaepernick likes facing Seattle's defense about as much as GOP candidates like facing fact-checkers.

- ...Landry Jones isn't a Ben Roethlisberger clone after all.

- ..., if George Carlin were still alive, he'd likely say this about the Atlanta-Tennessee game: "It was like what I said about golf one time. Watching the Atlanta Falcons-Tennessee Titans game was like watching flies f**k."

- ...the St. Louis Rams are bound to start making money off Todd Gurley's name, with phrases like: "Don't mess with our Gurley!," "Gurley just wants to have fun!," "I kissed a Gurley and I liked it!," "The Gurley bird catches the worm," among others.

- ...the Cleveland Browns are in the process of a 30-year rebuilding project.

- ...Ryan Fitzpatrick blames the creature living in his beard for the New York Jets' 30-23 loss to the New England Patriots on Sunday.

- ...it was the Oakland Raiders' ultimate goal to, for one half, be as dominant as they were in Tecmo Bowl.

- ...Andrew Luck is hoping to be part of a reality television series, entitled Job Swap, where he and Peyton Manning do just that.

- ..., just two games behind AFC South-leading Indianapolis, the 1-5 Tennessee Titans sat Marcus Mariota this weekend to provide him enough rest to help the team make a playoff run in the second half of the season.

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
