What I learned in Week 13 of the NFL season

In Week 13 of the NFL season, I learned that...

...team photos are so 2017. Once you've seen one team photo, you've seen them all.

..., even if the New York Jets had a 99% chance of landing safely, I'd refuse to come aboard, because yeah, they'd crash.

...Zac Taylor is the Freddie Kitchens of Hue Jacksons.

..., even when he's not expecting it, Tyreek Hill winds up with balls in his hands.

...Kyler Murray is so short, even cardboard cutouts of Danny DeVito knock his throws down in practice.

..., saying Taysom Hill is the second coming of Drew Brees would be like saying Nickelback is the second coming of the Rolling Stones.

...Bill Belichick finds so many different ways to score, Gene Simmons is even calling him for tips.

...the New York Giants have apparently authored the book "How to Win Ugly, Have a Losing Record at 5-7, and Still Be in First Place."

..., the kicking was so bad, even Republicans were tweeting, "Go more left!" and Democrats were tweeting, "No, no, more right!"

..., if Cris Collinsworth stopped speaking, 93% of the country would be happier. The other 7% agree.

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
