Bashing Manny Ramirez

I'm sick of people skipping the All-Star game, if you want to look at why there's less buzz about the All-Star game year after year, don't look at Interleague play. Do not say that with Interleague play now we these players play against each other all the time. It's not because of the tie ball game from a few years ago. It's not even the fact that the Mark Redman's of the world make the all star roster over Francisco Liriano because of the every roster must be represented rule. The reason the All Star game is on the decline is because of players like Manny Ramirez.

Manny has been voted by the fans to represent the American League as the starting left fielder. He puts up the numbers year after year, and after a slow start Manny now phenomenal numbers .312 23 and 63 Rbis. It's obvious that most Major League fans hold him in high regard and that Red Sox fans throughout the northeast stuff the ballots to get him into the game. But for another year there are rumors floating around that Manny is not going to go. That poor ole Manny's knee is bothering him and it needs rest. Yep I'm sure it is you've been taking so many weeks off and your numbers are so terrible because of it. Oh wait, your batting average of .312 is higher than it has been at any other point of the season.

Terry Francona is also a chump for covering Manny's back, just come out and say that Manny does not want to play in the All Star game don't make excuses. If Manny's knee has been so much of a problem this season why has he only missed 4 games the whole season? He's getting two days off during the break anyway and he surely will only play for a few innings. I'm sure that will put a lot of stress on that knee.

I agree with Buster Olney, Manny next year should not be included on the ballet, if he doesn't want to go to the game then screw him. I'd rather see someone voted into the game as a starter that will show up. It should be an honor that fans around the country want you above anyone else to play, but he treats it as a waste of time.

So for the Manny Ramirez of baseball and the many others out there that just say no to the All Star game, I say go F yourself.

Lou Holtz is the Homer / Annoyingly Delusional

As my buddy Joe and I always joke, if Notre Dame was suiting up against an all Jesus team, aka a team made up of 55 Sons of God, Lou Holtz would probably still pick Notre Dame to win by a touchdown. So of course this weekend when I'm watching Sportscenter and they have him and fellow old man Corso making predictions, Lou picks ND to beat Michigan. Not that big of a deal, Michigan is a big question mark this year, but of course than Lou says that Notre Dame will win 11 games this year. This is the same Notre Dame that lost to a service academy last year. And just when you thought the douchy homerism was going to end ESPN asks which BCS school is going to be the biggest surprise team in the country. Any guesses to whom it was? I'll give you a clue it was another team he coached. If you guessed South Carolina you would be a winner. Next up on Lou's prediction watch, the Jets win the Superbowl, NC St. wins the ACC, Arkansas dominates the SEC West, Minnesota wins the Big...

Ranking the New York Jets Historical Helmets

There's no way you can't go with the Helmet they won the Super Bowl in. You just can't. Next, I really don't understand why they don't where the helmet with the Jet as their throwback uniforms. That helmet is awesome. Then I'm going with the Helmets from the 80s because it's the classic feel and the white face mask is 10 times better than the black one. And the rankings continue until you get to... The Titans Helmet. I hate everything about those Titan uniforms. The Helmets are boring and the colors are GOD awful. Navy blue and Mustard? What the hell is that. Disgusting. If they wore those unis when I was a kid I'd probably be a Giant fan, and be much happier with my life in football.
