  Kevin Stefanski Hands Over Browns Play-Calling Duties to Offensive Coordinator Ken Dorsey: A New Era for Cleveland’s Offense In a significant shift for the Cleveland Browns, head coach Kevin Stefanski has decided to relinquish his play-calling responsibilities, passing them on to recently hired offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey. This move marks a pivotal moment in the evolution of the Browns’ offense, signaling Stefanski’s willingness to adapt in hopes of igniting the team's underwhelming performance on that side of the ball. The Decision to Step Back Since taking over as head coach in 2020, Stefanski has called offensive plays for the Browns. Under his leadership, Cleveland’s offense initially flourished, particularly during the 2020 season when the team made a rare playoff appearance, defeating the Pittsburgh Steelers in the Wild Card round. Stefanski's offensive schemes, emphasizing a run-heavy attack and play-action passes, played a key role in maximizing the talents of qu...

Five Iron Frenzy reunion: FIF posts new song, announces plans for new album due in 2013!


Update, 7:54 p.m.: Astoundingly, unless our eyes are playing tricks on us, Five Iron Frenzy appears to have already reached its Kickstarter goal of raising $30,000 to record its new album. Holy crap! That's got to be some kind of record. So far, this reunion seems to be off to a great start.So as promised, Tuesday, November 22, has indeed turned out to be a day that Five Iron Frenzy fans won't soon forget. Just moments ago, in case you missed it -- which is entirely possible, considering that the eagerly anticipated announcement caused servers to crash -- exactly eight years ago to the day that Five Iron Frenzy played its last show ever at the Fillmore Auditorium (we were there -- it was rad), the act has announced plans to record a new album with hopes of issuing the disc in 2013. Reflecting on the Rise and Fall of Five Iron back in '09, we never thought we'd see the day.
With that in mind, the outfit has posted a brand new song, "It Was a Dark and Stormy Night," which you can download for free on its Facebook page. The outfit is hoping to finance the whole endeavor with the generous support of its fans.
To that end, the act has set up a Kickstarter account to generate enough funds to record, mix, master and promote said album, and pay for all the associated travel costs. The goal has been set at $30,000. (Update: Astoundingly, as of 7:53 p.m. MST, 470 backers have already pledged $29,392!)
Earlier this afternoon, we spoke with Five Iron frontman Reese Roper, who is visiting his folks in Arizona (in the, ahem, Sonoran desert) for the holidays. And Roper, who now lives in Virgina, hinted that the reunited band has some other big plans in store for this summer. Live shows, perhaps? Hmm... you never know.

Carter Family Statement about Health of First Lady Rosalynn Carter

Image
ATLANTA — The Carter family is sharing that former First Lady Rosalynn Carter has dementia. She continues to live happily at home with her husband, enjoying spring in Plains and visits with loved ones. Mrs. Carter has been the nation’s leading mental health advocate for much of her life. First in the Georgia Governor’s Mansion, then in the White House, and later at The Carter Center, she urged improved access to care and decreased stigma about issues surrounding mental health. One in 10 older Americans have dementia, a condition that affects overall mental health. We recognize, as she did more than half a century ago, that stigma is often a barrier that keeps individuals and their families from seeking and getting much-needed support. We hope sharing our family's news will increase important conversations at kitchen tables and in doctor’s offices around the country. As the founder of the Rosalynn Carter Institute for Caregivers, Mrs. Carter often noted that there are only fou...

How One of Red's Famous Monologues Foreshadowed His Death

Image
At the end of the final episode of the two-part series finale event, "Raymond Reddington: Good Night" (Season 10, Episode 22), Raymond "Red" Reddington (James Spader) was killed in a surprising accident. Following years of his shenanigans, speeches, and introduction of countless Blacklisters, fans had to bid farewell in heartbreaking fashion. Below, NBC Insider breaks down the fateful moment, and why our favorite anti-hero met his end in such a specific way. How did Red die on The Blacklist'? While on a walk in the Spanish countryside, Reddington was trampled by a bull and killed. n the moments that led up to the fatal interaction, Red and the animal had a standoff, staring at one another before the bull began to charge at him. While fans didn't see the moment of impact, in the next scene Ressler (Diego Klattenhoff) — who tracked Red down and zeroed in on him in Spain – spots Red's body from a helicopter and finds him crumpled, bloodied, and unresponsive...

U.S. Senate Passes Unemployment Extension

Image
The U.S. Senate passed a bill which had a provision for renewed unemployment extension benefits.  Florida's U.S. Senator Bill Nelson voted for the bill while Senator Marco Rubio voted against the bill. Following his vote against H.R. 2055, the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2012, Senator Marco Rubio issued the following statement: “This massive 1,200-plus page bill represents everything that is wrong with Washington. Our country faces major economic challenges, but Congress wasted the whole year stuck in partisan gridlock only to pass a funding bill that solves none of our problems, just to avoid a government shutdown.  This plan spends too much, wastes precious taxpayer dollars to fund a menu of job-killing regulations, anti-life provisions and earmarks, and has been ushered through Congress in a highly secretive and non-transparent manner that didn’t allow for consideration of even a single amendment. I cannot support it.” Both of Brevard County's U.S. Representa...
