9 1/2? What Am I Missing?


I am not a gambler. Why? Because I don't like winning money as much as I hate losing money. And well my luck of the irish doesn't exist. But looking at the line for the game tonight makes me think, wow Vegas is really just begging you to bet on the Celtics.

Up 2-0 and undefeated thus far this season against the Lakers they are getting Salmost double digits? I understand favoring the Lakers and thinking that they are going to bounce back at home and avoid going 0 for the series, but what exactly is the logic backing a beat down. They were getting crushed for 40 minutes on Sunday night before the Celtics put it in cruise control and the Lakers fought back. They've killed them on the boards and are obviously the more physical team and in my opinion simply a better team. I just don't get it.

So, if I was a Gambler I think I'd have to take up Vegas' begging offer to take the Celtics. But of course if I bet on the Celtics they would go out and lose by 15.

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.
