I Bet Nobody Wants to Chug the Kool-Aid Now

So, who wants to drink the Green Kool-Aid today? Best team in the AFC my ass. Here's what transpired yesterday at the Meadowlands. A division leader was throttled by another division leader in pretty much every aspect of the game.

1. Brett Favre Sucked Dong: He threw one Arm Punt to Dre Bly which was absolutely nowhere near the intended receiver. He missed short passes for first downs. He threw tons of incomplete passes and made zero good throws by the goal line. It was a pitiful display of football.

2. The Coaches Are Fucking Morons: Once again the play calling was incredibly suspect. Thomas Jones numbers read 16 carries 138. Two carries went for 59 and 29 yards respectively, so the typical carry was 14 for 60 or 4+ a carry. So on 3rd and 1 you should feel comfortable running the football. And then when you play action pass stupidly on 3rd and 1 and throw and incompletion you should feel comfortable running on 4th and 1. But no you throw the ball twice. And then when you get 3rd and 3 and 4th and 3 later in the game you do the same fucking thing. Gardock. 16 carries 138 yards, give him the god damn football.

3. The Defense Blew: Here's what I said on Wednesday last week, "...please tell me who's covering Eddie Royal this week? Ty Law? Too Slow. Dwight Lowery? Too awful. If they decide to cover him with Revis than that means constant double coverage on Marshall which will leave Scheffler and Graham to patrol the middle in single coverage by a linebacker. That didn't work out so well against Ben Watson. The Broncos have a very good shot at putting a ton of point on the board and pulling off the upset...". What happened? Tony Scheffler 7 catches 90 yards. Eddie Royal 5 catches 84 yards and a td. Daniel Graham 6 catches 59 yards. That's 213 yards passing to two tight ends and the #2 receiver. The Broncos were also able to rush the football consistently which hasn't happened to the Jets since week 2. It was a completely miserable effort.

So which member of the media is going to reach for the Kool-Aid pitcher this week?

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...

Guest Post: Thoughts on Sabathia Signing

I asked Grutt what his thoughts were on the Sabathia signing and I thought his response pretty much nailed it. So here it is. I don’t know. Every year I get a little more disenchanted with baseball. Yea, it’s great we signed the top pitching free agent. But we were supposed to. No team was even in the ballpark of the Yankees offer yet they still needed to jump from the already ridiculous price of $140 million to $160 million to close the deal. Now I hear we are going to sign more pitchers who will also get large contracts and the position player gaps are still glaring. Each new, large contract just adds to the feeling that the Yanks are supposed to win it all. “I think we have a good chance this year.” That is a lost feeling. If they don’t win I’ll wonder why, like there has to be some other reason besides that it’s a sport you can never predict how things will work out and some years just aren’t yours to be won. If they win I will be pleasantly smug. It gets a little more...
