The first would be the NFL game on Sunday between two hapless teams, the Cleveland Browns and the Buffalo Bills, won by the Browns 6-3 despite a 2 for 17 for 23 yards outing from former Beaver quarterback Derek Anderson. Just great for me, now I don't have to hear Beavo fans harp on the lack of success of Joey Harrington.
The latter would be the final touchdown scored by the Seattle Seahawks in their 41-0 route of the Jacksonville Jaguars, a 79 yard touchdown run by former Duck Nick Reed, a man who will always live on in the hearts of Oregon fans for his incredible desire to succeed.
Here's the Nick Reed touchdown, thanks to akfirecat for posting this!
.......and HERE'S the gory details about the first game, I will provide feedback from a friend of mine who actually attended this debacle.

Dodgers 3 Cardinals 2: Heh.........
"That ball got lost in 50,000 white towels shaking in front of Matt's face," Adam Wainwright said. "It doesn't really seem fair that an opposing team should be able to allow their fans to shake white towels when there's a white baseball flying through the air. How about Dodger Blue towels?"
Bitter much? As I've often been told by my "superiors", life isn't fair. Dodgers up 2-0, but the NLDS is far from over. Still, today's game developments couldn't have happened to a better set of fans. Go Blue!!!

Nationals 7 Mets 4: I Must Not Think Bad Thoughts
I blame myself for Wednesday's loss, I really do. In a crazy season where it seems that the Mets have lost about one game a week in an unfathomable manner, last night's meltdown in which ace reliever Francisco Rodriquez gave up five runs including a walk-off grand slam as the Mets blew a two run ninth inning lead was maybe a microcosm of the season.
Laying on the couch after a very long work day, watching K-Rod struggle to get Nationals batters out to the point where he walked in their first run of the inning whilst leaving the bases loaded, the thought came to my mind that the only natural way for this game to end would be on a grand slam. After other jarring losses had left me fuming and mumbling to myself loudly, when Justin Maxwell's hit landed over the left field fence, the sense of karmic balance quieted my mood rather quickly. There was no throwing of things at other things, it was just the inevitable acceptance of this year's team imploding upon itself, finding another way to lose a game they clearly had in their grasp.
At any rate, here's the song that came to my mind, I Must Not Think Bad Thoughts by X, shown here from Denver in April of this year.
