Nothing real here, of course, on a test site. Just playing around. Times are Eastern Time Zone.

This Sunday, the 7-4 Browns play at the 6-5 Bills. Buffalo has the best record of any non-divisional opponent that the Browns have faced thus far.
The Browns have played a bit rugged against average to below average teams, such as the Titans, Jags, Bucs, Raiders, Texans, and Falcons. At least the Browns went 4-2 vs those teams. And to the Browns credit, those losing teams made mistakes, and Cleveland took advantage. An opponent has to finish off the Browns when given a chance.
On the flip side, however, Cleveland has played well against teams with good records, such as the Ravens, Steelers, and Bengals, which are all divisional teams.
The Browns remaining schedule is tough. If the Browns win three of these games, that will be a fine accomplishment. At 10 wins, that will probably put them into the playoffs. A 9-7 record will have the Browns in the playoff conversations, but tie-breakers will need to fall Cleveland's way.

DD's parents stopped by for lunch. Now, I'll feed my sourdough bread starter. Then I'll do some more yard work, since today's weather is dry with only a light wind.

We plan to brew a two-gallon batch of beer this afternoon. This will be our first brew day in two months. Too long between batches.
Today, we'll brew a maple porter. On Friday, we might brew a two-gallon batch of an apple ale beer.
The following weekend, we plan to attend a group brew day. We'll brew a five-gallon batch, but at this point, we have not decided on a beer.

Excerpts from the 9:12 a.m. Cleveland National Weather Service's Area Forecast Discussion :
I'll have to check to the Hi-Def radar this afternoon to see if anything materializes.

A person came out this morning to measure our kitchen and our steps to the basement. We plan to have new flooring installed.

Nov 26, 2014 Profootballtalk.com story about last Sunday's thuggery by a Lions offensive lineman:
Raiola said on Tuesday that he wasn’t fined. Per a league source, he won’t be.
I highlighted the word "incidents" because they were goon, cheap shots.
The NFL will fine a player for throwing a football into the crowd, but when a player intentionally tries to hurt another player, that gets ignored. No fine. No suspension.
I thought that the NFL cared about player safety. Oh wait, that's a joke. More Thursday night games please on three days rest.
More from the PFT story:
Raiola punched Moore in the head and then dove at Moore’s knees on a play when the Lions were taking a knee. If failing to talk to the media or wearing the wrong kind of headphones or selecting shoes that don’t reflect the proper color scheme justify the withholding of a portion of a player’s paycheck, how do neither of Raiola’s infractions trigger punishment?

Making this initial post from my iPhone, using the enhanced writing function in single-screen mode within Junco / JotHut.
This is why I prefer to use a web app with a database, so that I can publish easily and instantly from any web-enabled device. I can do that three ways with both my Junco and Grebe web publishing apps:
- microblog or notes - small text area box that remains at the top of the page after each post, so that I don't have to click a "post" link first.
- blog or article:
- click "post" to display a larger text area box. Simple HTML web form.
- click "post" and the click "spit" to display the javascript-based enhanced writing feature with the screen split vertically to display markup on left and HTML preview on the right. It's not live preview because I find that feature distracting when typing. This enhanced writing feature also has a single screen mode to enjoy a larger writing area, which is what I'm using as I type this on my iPhone. This enhanced writing area also has other writing display modes, such as light text on dark background and more. It has auto save.
