Michael Strahan I Said It But Its Your Fault

Michael Strahan this week on his weekly segment on WFAN, a segment he apparently gets paid for, completely threw Plaxico Burress under the bus, saying that he quit on the team and that he doesn't understand what his motivation is, etc. It was obviously a comment out of frustration and he was most likely just honestly answering a question which in most cases leads to problems. Today was one of those days.

At first Strahan was approached to talk about his statement from yesterday but he refused to comment on the previous comment saying that he doesn't talk to the media until thursday. Then the ESPN reporter decided to bring the comment directly to Plaxico Burress and read the quote verbatim to him. This lead Plaxico to sit there in almost complete shock as it was the first time he heard the statement. His replies were the typical things like that's unfortunate that he feels that way, I'm not going to talk about another player on my team, he should say it to me, etc.

Then when interviewed later today Michael Strahan said that his quote is just being portrayed as negative. Michael continued his tirade and with all of his statements he was attempting to alleviate all of the blame from himself and place it on the media saying that the media was trying to divide the locker room. He then went into a rant about how the media is always negative and told them that he doesn't give bleep and he knows garbage when he reads it.

Simply put, you have to live with your words Michael. You said it, then when approached you could have nipped it in the butt and clarified your statements, instead the reporter made the easy decision and brought it to Plaxico to create a bigger story.

And the Giants Avalanche picks up extra steam.

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.
