the bengals has a satisfying comeback yesterday. it was good to see us be able to win from behind. unfortunately we can't always afford to start that slow, especially with pittsburg next week. palmer had yet another near-flawless game (setting a ranchise record and tying an nfl record, too), rudi pounded away with the ball and broke off the big runs when we needed them, and chad abused the titans secondary. chris perry also looked excellent; they definitely made a good decision to draft him last year. it was good to see the defense once again get some nice turnovers after a couple slow games, and the thurmanator's (props to justin) touchdown was especially nice. they still let up way too many rushing yards, which is going to hurt us against jamal lewis or willie parker/jerome bettis. we also had a lot fewer penalties, but they were still painful ones that came at the wrong time.
so daniel craig is the new james bond? he looks like he could be a good choice. certainly better than some of the other rumored possibilities, although i still think clive owen would have been a good choice.
there are a slew of good-looking pc games coming out this week. i'll have to pick up quake 4. the ign review wasn't quite as great as i would have hoped, but i still think it will be a great game. f.e.a.r. is getting excellent reviews, and the demo was pretty entertaining, if not too short. i'm not huge on scary games, only because i'm a big wuss, and the demo alone was really creepy (even if they do blatantly steal the girl from the ring). age of empires has always been a great RTS series, and the third entry looks even more impressive, but i haven't been into RTS games much in awhile.
then there's the king of them all: sid meier's civilization iv comes out next week. i guess i can kiss my grades goodbye.
