The Shootaround [1/21/09]

I've Decided to be a Friendly Neighboorhood Blogger in 2009 So We Shall Be Shooting Links Around. I'll be shooting links at stories that I like and/or stories that I find interesting but can't get to. Also, it'll come whenever I feel like it.

Brian Scalabrine is starting and the Celtics have won every game since. Obviously it's all him. [The Coach's Take]

Oh great Michigan is already amidst their annual Big 10 Collapse. [mgoblog]

Apparently True Hoop has 'The Shootaround' as well. Their's started, so I win by a few weeks, I guess. [True Hoop]

Oh God Yay, Steve Phillips will be helping out on Sunday Night Baseball. Yay. [AA]

Vandalizing a Pro Athletes Lawn is Probably Not a Good Idea. [With Leather]

Ooh Figure Skater Titty. [LIO]

Someone I talked to recently compared Larry Fitgerald to the Predator, KSK agrees. [KSK]

Syracuse's offensive coordinator from last season, Mitch Browning, is supposedly taking a job as a Graduate Assistant at Tennessee. Huh? [GoVols]

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.

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.

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.

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.
