Time To Dislodge the Large Chunk of Food Stuck in Your Throat

Apparently one thing in golf you can continually count on is Sergio blowing up on the back 9 on Sunday in a major. If there was a sunday lined up perfectly for Sergio to take home his first major, it was most certainly yesterday. And yet he of course found a way to cough it up.

Simply put the start of Sergio's round could not have started off better. After two holes Sergio had rifled in two drives, had pinpointed his approach shots and had tapped in his easy putts for birdie and eagle. By the 6th hole Sergio had reached -3 under a share of the lead. This share of the lead would eventually disintegrate and the 2007 British Open was about to be rehashed. Watching Padraig once again pummel the back 9 of a major, Sergio got that same choking feeling and dunked one in the water. And then of course tied up with Harrington on the 17th with a closer putt, Sergio followed up Paddy's thrilling birdie with the typical missed putt. Then needing a birdie on the final hole and watching Harrington push his drive into a fairway bunker, Sergio once again had an opening. An opening he threw away by driving into the thick rough. And minutes later it was over, another choke story in Sergio's career.

Of course after the event everyone wanted to fire the choker questions at Sergio, which is responded as so:

“Why are you making this a disappointment?” he snapped at his questioner in the twilight glow outside Oakland Hills. “Obviously I was trying to win, but that’s it. It’s not disappointing.” Yahoo

Maybe he just doesn't get it. If you ain't first your last.

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.
