I Care About Sports Just As Much If Not More Than You

If you have ever met you know that a good 95% of my brain use utilized in thinking, talking, dreaming about sports. Is my grammar perfect when I post something? No. Sorry but I don't actually get paid for this, I do it for fun. I don't get why ass bags like this guy just don't get that. I will never have a journalism degree, rather an MS in Engineering & an MBA, why exactly does that matter in regards to my passion of sports. If someone reads any of my posts and gets any valid information or enjoys my opinion than so be it, what's the big deal?

What exactly is different between the New York Daily News digging into Roger Clemens past affairs with womens and any blog posting pictures of a drunk athlete? If anything the Daily News is doing much larger damage to a person. Are both news worthy? Sure why not. Some people will have a problem with their quarterback getting hammered and enjoying a bottle of jack daniels and some people will have a problem with Clemens having sex with billions of non-attractive blonds but do either have any true effect on the average humans life? No.

I guess my main point is this, if people like what they are reading, they will continue to do so. If millions of people go to deadspin monthly than it's obvious relevant and obviously has public benefits. Brushing it all off as crap is nonsense, for if it was actually crap people wouldn't read it.

Hi. I've never met you, but you're right. It pisses me off that people so frequently bitch about blogs. The fact is, a lot of shit sucks--in the world. That doesn't mean that you can invalidate an entire medium b/c some blogs suck. Some newspapers suck; some movies, etc.

Anyway, I enjoy your blog. Ass-bags will be ass-bags.

I mean to say "suck" after movies. Damn it. Buzz Bissinger was right. I am worthless.

Print media is dead. Journalism school is a joke. You don't need a college degree to write for a news paper. I would argue that any student that passes English with good grades in High School has the chops to write for print.

The degree must teach the arbitrary sensationalism, creation of facts, use of anonymous sources, and political posturing.

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.
