Keeping the Faith

The world is full of assholes. We see this every day. For instance, the d-bag on my ass at 6:10 a.m. this morning even though there was a perfectly good left lane for him to go be an asshole in. We see mothers throwing their drug-dependant babies at cops, congressman soliciting BJs in airport restrooms, guys trying to trade Dolphins tickets for some man-boy love action as Simon mentioned earlier, and everything in between.

Those are just the little things too; there are also the occasional genocides and the extraordinarily cowardly suicide bombers. And then somebody does something that restores the ol’ faith in humanity.

The Colorado Rockies voted to give a full playoff share to the widow of their minor league coach that was killed by a line drive this year. Not only is the woman pregnant, but she has two other young children as well, who will be throwing out the first pitch on Saturday.

The Rockies seem to be doing pretty well on their own lately, but this last karmic boost should make them a lock to win the whole thing.

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.
