Final Question: Favorite food combo.

Sunday NFL roundup:
The Raiders opened their season in Indianapolis and though falling 21-17 they played far better than expected.
San Francisco led by Joe.... Err Colin Kaepernick with over 400 yards passing beat the Green Bay Packers 34-28.
The Dallas Cowboys went to the bakery and got 6 turnovers from the NY Giants winning 36-31.
Rookie QB EJ Manuel took on the New England Patriots. Early turnovers and penalties proved to be too much as the Buffalo Bills could not hold off Tom Brady's 4th quarter comeback, falling 23-21. Stevie game 1 09082013
What's on tap:
The Philadelphia Eagles travel to Washington to take on the Redskins. San Diego Chargers host the Houston Texans on the season opener of the Monday Night doubleheader.

Final Thoughts:
Today was a pretty good day. When I first saw the tease during football on Sunday I really wanted to see the story on the SWAT
Medics today on My58. It was pretty cool, however Good Day Sacramento was a far better show with all the fun & topics that they had. It was a nice welcome to have Mark S. Allen back from vacation & Toronto Film Fest. It was also nice to see Lori Wallace reporting today with Ju, Kristin, Mel, & Sean not on today.
Fox you didn't do it for me today. I want to like the Don't be that guy segment with Sabrina but I felt like I got better tips at other times.
I did like some of what Wendy had to say about healthy eating but much of what was said I'm unable to do. I wish stations would have tips for those who had Gastric Bypass Surgery because the size portions & foods that can be eaten differ from normal portions.
All in all Good Day Sacramento won my ratings followed by My58 mainly for the SWAT story with Fox finishing 3rd today.
Reminder Cody goes under the dome tonight at 9pm on CBS13 and a group of us live tweet about show. Follow @tvcody @gdproducertessa tonight at 9 for all the fun. 2 shows left.
Have a great rest of your day and I will see you tomorrow.
