Cheater (the one in the hoodie) doesn't prosper

Observations following an NFL weekend:
1, New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick is getting scalded because his decision to go for it on fourth down in his own territory backfired.
Reaction: Calling plays sure was easier when he was stealing signals.
2, Oakland Raiders coach Tom Cable should be upset.
Reaction: Baseball's St. Louis Cardinals hired a "hitting" coach and Cable wasn't even considered for the job. Who's more qualified than Cable?
3, The Cincinnati Bengals, after reaching the top of the AFC North, want to hitch their wagon to Chiefs castoff Larry Johnson.
Reaction: Need amy more proof that the Bengals haven't yet learned how to handle prosperity?
4, The Cleveland Browns -- really -- are playing on Monday Night Football.
Reaction: If the NFL handled its TV business like the Big 12 (wait until the last minute to pick which games should be in on the tube in prime time), then the Browns would be playing one of those 11:30 a.m. games on perhaps, a channel like Animal Planet. Or maybe the Browns would be bumped off the air in favor of one of those infomercials for Time/Life music collections. The little singer from Air Supply could play quarterback for the Browns.
5, If the St. Louis Rams had beaten the New Orleans Saints, would that have been the sports upset of the year?
Reaction: The sports upset of the year is that Landry Jones has not gotten hurt while playing behind Oklahoma's patchwork line.
