Political pandering is hard to pull off right these days, but Paul Ryan should know better than to laud a "storied" franchise that's never won a Super Bowl and has one winning season in the last 10 (and, depending on your interpretation of such things, has only existed since 1999). Also, you got to be able to pronounce the quarterback's name right, too. At least he didn't use the opportunity to try and tout his fascist working routine of choice.

Thanks Gavin S. for the tip/video.


Jim Rome was ripping Paul Ryan a new one over this on sports radio today. A small thing, but funny.

1. Who the hell was he talking about? Bernie Kosar maybe?

2. Wil Wheaton of Star Trek?

4. Brandon Weeden. Their rookie 29 year old QB

He's not too far off, but the nasally voice just kills it.

7. Ah, that 'splains it. A rookie.

I don't follow college football - I am from Minnesota, where it hasn't mattered in over 40 years.

3. After this season you'll all know who Brandon Weeden is

5. That can be because of many things

not all of them good. But we shall see.

6. I *like* Brandon Weeden

I think Cleveland did the right thing by giving him a fair shake.

He just might turn out to be yet another Quinn.

8. Oh, that is

just mean!
