Welcome to Buster's Blog

Irregular commentary on whatever's on my mind -- politics, sports, current events, and life in general. After twenty years of writing business and community newsletters, fifteen years of fantasy baseball newsletters, and two years of email "columns", this is, I suppose, the inevitable result: the awful conceit that someone might actually care to read what I have to say. Posts may be added often, rarely, or never again. As always, my mood and motivation are unpredictable.

Let The Brian Hoyer-Willis McGahee Era Begin


Just two games into the 2013 season, the Cleveland Browns have pretty much thrown in the towel.  Running back Trent Richardson has been traded to the Colts.  Quarterback Brandon Weeden has been replaced by erstwhile 3rd-stringer Brian Hoyer, probably for good.  Injury-prone retread Willis McGahee will take Richardson's spot.  Both Richardson and Weeden were 1st round draft picks just last year!

Yeah, yeah, I know we're getting more draft choices, and we're rebuilding, and we can get a better QB, etc., etc.  I've heard it all before.  We always get plenty of high draft choices because we always suck.  Because we suck, we're always rebuilding.  We always have a mediocre QB -- our last effective one was Bernie Kosar, and that was 20+ years ago!  Gawd!!

The real Cleveland Browns moved to Baltimore after the 1995 season.  Since 1999, we've been subjected to the Cleveland Clowns, a franchise going nowhere.
