Nielsen's ra(n)tings

Politics, guns, homeschooling for the gifted, scuba, hunting, farming and somewhat coherent occasional ranting from your average Buckeye State journalist/dad/farmer/actor.

Woo-hoo! Great weekend in the Buckeye State!

If you're an Ohio sports fan (as I am,) this was a great weekend.

First the Cleveland Cavaliers extended their winning streak to seven with a comeback win over the Philadelphia 76ers on Friday night.

On Saturday, nearly every Ohio television was switched on as the Ohio State Buckeyes scored the winning touchdown in Ann Arbor over arch-rival Michigan with 24 seconds to go. Though we spent three years in Ann Arbor and my daughter was born at the University of Michigan Hospital, my loyalties are firmly behind the "Scarlet and Gray."

And on Sunday, my beloved Browns turned in their best performance of the season, throttling Miami 22-0. The Bengals lost to the Colts, but I was never able to generate much fan enthusiasm for the Bengals, despite spending seven years working at various newspapers in Cincinnati.

Life is good.
