Brady Quinn

Browns coach Eric Mangini tried to keep it a secret, but in this day of 24-hour news on TV and the Internet there was no way word about Cleveland's starting quarterback wasn't going to leak out. I'm very glad Mangini picked Brady Quinn, although it really doesn't have anything to do with him being from Dublin. It's more about Quinn being the right guy for the job and deserving a chance after being forced to stand on the sideline for basically two seasons watching Derek Anderson's up and down performances. Now let's see some wins!

Andy has a man crush ;)....I took a big sigh of relief when he was named starter, I couldn't go through another frustrating hot and cold Anderson that just teases me with small sample sizes of success...Go Brady, come to Historic Dublin and celebrate on your next trip back!

Is Jim Tressel also calling plays for the Browns? The offensive games plans for the Buckeyes and Browns were offensive. Talk about unimaginative. I don't think the Browns put Quinn in the best position to make plays. And having Cribbs take snaps in goal line situations isn't very smart considering you're supposed to be trying to build Quinn's confidence and to see what he can do. Those were very disappointing performances, although I guess I was more upset with the Buckeyes, Tressel and Terrelle Pryor because they had control of the game in the fourth quarter and let it slip away. Pryor is very indecisive in the pocket and he's got terrible footwork. Did anyone also notice how he never throws the ball hard? He always lobs it. His performance was not a good sign.

Browns + Indians = blech ... Go Cavs!

To paraphrase Princess Leia: Help me LeBron James, you're our only hope.

    Dublin history lesson

    Peter and Benjamin Sells came to the area around 1801 from Huntington County, Pa., to buy land. Old Dublin was first platted in 1810 by their brother, John. Surveyor John Shields named the town after his birthplace in Ireland. The town developed the usual assortment of mills, shops and churches, with settlers coexisting peacefully with Wyandot Indians, who camped on Indian Run. The town gained notoriety in the mid-19th century, when a surplus of taverns and rowdy Civil War veterans gave the village a tough reputation. Columbus' growth and the construction of I-270 made expansion inevitable. Dublin achieved city status in 1987.
