Parrish Thoughts
Browns: Freshmen QB Charlie Frye should call his own plays. Play calling and last second strategies have not been a Browns braintrust strength so far this season. A fresh young mind that appears to have some valuable football savy couldn't hurt a thing. After the 28 yard run by the Jaguars QB to end the Browns chance to win that game there needs to be some help calling defenses as well.
The NFL should assert itself and suspend all of the T.O.'s, Randy Moss's, Chad Johnson's whose ignorant arrogant self promoting antics are lowering the image of the game of football to that of Gangster Rap or a Jerry Springer Show. Quoting again from Wikipedia: "Given that the audience for gangsta rap has become predominately white, some commentators (for example, Spike Lee in his satirical film Bamboozled) have even criticized it as analogous to minstrel shows and blackface performance, in which performers, both black and white, were made up to look like black caricatures, acted in a stereotypically uncultured and ignorant manner for the entertainment of white audiences. Some performers, such as The Geto Boys, are even accused of being cartoonish and over-the-top (though many artists, particularly the Geto Boys, would be the first to freely admit this)."
Browns Curse: Brylon Edwards injury is just the latest evidence of the curse. With Art Modell in the Browns history the number of curses hurled at the Browns by way of Art would probably make the Browns the most cursed franchise in all of sports. Perhaps we should hold an "Art Appreciation Day" to meet in one place and try to lift the curse. This would be a good time it has been 10 years now since Art abandon Cleveland for the best deal he could find in the Al Davis depositions on moving the Raiders franchise. Maybe it would even get him into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
Politics: I believe author Bob Woodward's source for outing Valery Plame's CIA identity, that he is saving to sell his new book with is Secretary of State Condalezza Rice . You heard it here first .
NFL promos Gangster Rap policy: The FBI campaign against the internaional gang MS13 was a 60 Minute feature last week end. The FBI folks are extremely upset by the NFL's & ESPN's use of a Gangster Rap promo that amounts to an overt recruiting campaign for MS13 and other gangs across America.
