The Legendary Ken Dorsey.

After watching yet another Browns ass-whooping, handed to them this time by the Detroit Lions, it's time to admit it, Romeo. Ken Dorsey is the answer. Do you not remember what he did at The U? He dominated back in his Miami days. That alone should be reason enough to start Dorsey over Brady Quinn and Derek Anderson. Do we need to take a trip down memory lane?

He was a Heisman Trophy finalist in 2001 AND 2002. Who else has done that lately? Darren McFadden? Dorsey is a beast.

He took the Hurricanes to the 2001 and 2002 National Championships. Which, of course he won the first one, and of course he lost the second, because he played the Buckeyes. So he gets a pass on that one.

He was 38-2 as Miami's starting quarterback in his career. It's not unlikely to think he wouldn't do that again in Cleveland. In fact, he'd probably better that record as the Browns starter.

He owns Miami passing records for total offense, passing yards, passing TD's, pass completions, pass attempts, victories as a starting QB, winning percentage for a QB, 200-yard passing performances, consecutive passes without an INT, consecutive games with a TD pass, and TD passes in a game. What does that mean? Ken Dorsey is a WINNER.

Plus, I didn't even mention his last two preseason games with the Browns. Combined, in the two, in limited action, he is 22-for-33, with 234 passing yards, 1 TD, and zero INT's. He's a monster.

What more do I need to say? Ken Dorsey. The Man, The Myth, The Legend.

Oh, snap.

It's been a while. Time to do some catching up.

Let's see....Paul Byrd was traded to the Red Sox. Good. Mo Williams got traded to the Cavs. For Joe Smith and Damon Jones! Damn...that might be the steal of the century. We gave up a couple bench guys for a stud point guard? Go Danny Ferry! Hopefully he isn't done. Hopefully he continues to try and tweak the roster the best way possible, and make this team a title contender. It looks like Hafner and Victor will be back soon, seeing as they are both in AAA Buffalo on rehab starts, so that's a good sign. Also, the Indians are finally out of the basement in the AL Central. Reason for celebration, lol.

Now, onto the Browns. First, those brown pants they wore tonight--terrible. Don't ever bust those out again. Those were pretty damn bad. Next, I can't believe how bad the 1st team Offense and Defense looked. 30-3 with the 1st team in? Damn. That's pretty damn bad. Oh well, at least it was only preseason. Besides, the 1st teamers looked good against the Jets last week. We'll see how they do on Saturday against the Lions.

Next up, the injuries. Those are never good. Braylon is out with his foot gash--hopefully he's back for the last preseason game. And just tonight, Brodney Pool suffered a concussion, Josh Cribbs tweaked his ankle, and DA suffered a (possible) concussion. That's not good.

It looks like Cribbs' injury is pretty minor, but hopefully DA and Brodney will be back in time for next Thursday's game against the Bears. If not, hopefully worse case scenario is that they're back in time for Dallas in Week One.

Other than that, not much else to discuss regarding the Cleveland sports scene. I'm just ready for baseball season to be over, football season to start, and basketball season to get training camp underway. I'm sick of watching the Indians lose every night.


Maybe one of these days they'll put together a winning streak. Ahh, reminds me of that movie, Major League.

"All right people, we won yesterday. Now, if we win today, that'll be two in a row. And if we win tomorrow, do you know what that's called? That's called a winning streak. Let's try it one of these years."
