The Scalabrine Watch: The Unstoppable (Except for Concussions) January Scalabrine

It's the second season of the Scalabrine Watch which is meant to point out just how terrible he is as a basketball player. It shall track both his typical numbers as well as his +/- which the signifies the total number of points the Celtics lose while he is on the court.

The Scals was inserted into the starting lineup after Perk got injured and in the month of January Scals was "The Beacon of Energy". The only thing that could stop his rampant pace? Concussions.

January Sum Up: +99

The month of January got off to a slow start for Scals. In the first 5 games he only racked up 36 minutes of PT and he garnered a middle of the road +/-. You know the numbers we expect from Scals, a +/- in the single digits for each game cause he doesn't play enough. Than Perkins got injured, Scals was inserted in the starting line up and and the +/- was on sky rocket patrol.

In the next 6 games, Scals played at least 22 minutes. In four of these 6 games Scals put up a +/- over 15. He even scored double digit points in two of these games. Somehow in the 6 games he never managed to pick up more than 4 rebonds, proving he does still suck, but the +/- were through the roof.

Overall November Performance: 86

Damn you January. Scalabrine's +99 in January leaves him at +86 for the season. You know how hard it's going to be to get back to par from +86? Nearly impossible especially if his minutes do not drastically increase when he finally comes back from the concussions.

January Totals: 223 Minutes, 63 Points, 22-56 FG, 9-28 3s, 10-10 FTs, 23 Rebounds, 8 Assists, 5 Turnovers, 3 Steals, 7 Blocks, 33 Fouls

January Averages: 17 Minutes, 4.85 Points, 1.7-4 FG, 1-2.2 3s, 0.8-0.8 FTs, 1.77 Rebounds, .36Assists, .4 Turnovers, .2 Steals, .5 Blocks, 2.5 Fouls

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.
