Quick Notes: 3 Strikes Your Out Rule

Or the Pacman Jones rule would be a complete step in the right direction for the NFL or for any major sports league. Really if you get arrested 3 times you're pretty much either A) A Scumbag or B) A Moron. And honestly if you are getting paid millions upon millions of dollars I feel as if once you get 2 strikes you should be able to hold the fort for the remainder of your professional career. I mean I've done some stupid things in the past and have yet to get arrested. I'm sure plenty of other people have been absolute morons and not been arrested.

One thing I think is getting blown out of proportion is how many people this will effect / how many people will get kicked out as a result of this policy. Personally I'd be surprised if we ever saw more than 1 person a year in any given league, and if we ever saw a high profile player get booted. Sure there's your Chris Henry's or Pacman Jones' of the world that are sure to get the boot but there are way more individuals with zero arrests on their resume than multiple.

I think the talk of implementing the rule is pretty much the NFLPA trying to put themselves in a positive light for the first time in months. In other words this policy if ratified won't really do much.

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.
