Probably the last photo taken from my 3G. It was time for an upgrade.
The new mobile pictures should look far better. Back to syncing...
RSS Update
Just a quick note that if you happen to use this site's RSS, you should grab the new address:

I've spent a few days setting up XBMC (Xbox Media Center) in my living room. Despite the name, this media player runs in a computer in my closet and pumps out videos and music on the hard drive to the television. It's really a sight to see in person; these images look just as crisp on a 42" LCD. Patrick, I think you need this for your new TV too. Check it out.
Thank Goodness: Brady Arrives at Camp
UpdatedJul 25, 2010 11:02 PM ETDespite various rumors about whether Tom Brady would show up when veterans are required to report to the team on Wednesday, a source told FOXSports.com that the star signal caller reported to the New England Patriots on Sunday. The quarterbacks were required to report with the rookies on Sunday.
ON THE MEND
Who are the key difference-makers returning to the field in 2010 after injuries wrecked them a year ago? Check the top 10.
Brady, who is heading into the final year of his contract, carries a base salary of $3.5 million for this season. He was paid a $3 million roster bonus earlier this year.
New England had three second-round picks in this year’s draft. Two of them signed on Sunday, the team announced. Terms of the deal were not disclosed, but sources said both players signed four-year deals.
TE Rob Gronkowski (6-6, 265, Arizona), selected 10th overall in the round, missed the entire 2009 season because of a back injury. He also did not work out during February’s NFL Combine, but had good private workouts prior to the draft.
New England decided against re-signing veteran TE Ben Watson, who signed with the Cleveland Browns in March. Watson’s void left the team with little athleticism at the position. With Gronkowski and third-round pick Aaron Hernandez added to the mix, New England is now in good shape at the position for years to come. And both can be brought along slowly since veteran TE Alge Crumpler was also added to the roster earlier this year.
OLB Jermaine Cunningham (6-3, 260, Florida), selected 21st in the round, will be expected to contribute right away. The team decided to release veteran OLB Adalius Thomas, leaving the team with little depth at the position. They did re-sign veteran OLB Derrick Burgess, but New England needs to get a younger player into the rotation.
Two players remain unsigned from New England’s draft class: First-round pick CB Devin McCourty and second-round pick LB Brandon Spikes.
Well that's a good sign. I want the Golden Boy on the Patriots for another contract, even though I'm not sure our defense will be good enough to win more titles.
When he's healthy, Brady is an absolute beast.
Congratulations to Spain
The first World Cup title to Spain, and yet, as I discussed with Patrick last night, they never looked like they hit their stride. I wonder what that says about the quality of this year's tournament. I think the announcer said that they scored the fewest goals to win a World Cup tournament. Crazy, considering the scoring prowess of the Barcelona team, which has many of the same players.
It was the first Cup I watched as a converted soccer fan, and it was great to see so many players I knew. I hope that Fabregas gets all that love for Spain out of his system and comes back to Arsenal. And if not, that Wenger demands the 50 million pounds that he's worth. Finally, how great is that octopus?
