2009 NIT Round 1 Sum Up


The ole NIT first round is done and in the end I went 11-5, which is not bad.

To put it bluntly the NIT first round was a round for the favorites. The better seed won 14 of the 16 games. Davidson, URI and Miami were the only squads to win on the road and Miami was a higher seed that needed to go roadtrippin thanks to scheduling conflicts. Because of that there's really nothing to talk about. The Hokies needed double OT to beat Duquesne so their run to the championship might be a bit in question. Billy Gillespie would probably like to win the tourney so maybe he doesn't get shit canned. Davidson is playing St. Mary's next which could be entertaining. But in the end the majority of the 2nd round games are going on at the same time as NCAA games, so its highly doubtful you'll be tuning in.

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.
