2009 American League Award Show Predictions

MVP - Grady Sizemore, Sizemore's numbers last year were through the roof. 33 homers and 38 steals? Damn. The Indians unfortunately for him stunk, this year I've got the Indians taking home the division and if Sizemore throws up similar stats the award could be his.

Cy Young - CC Sabathia, Why not go chalk with the Cy Young? CC will get run support, he will be the Yankees horse, he won't have to compete with Tiny Tim or Johan, this award shall be his.

Manager of the Year - Trey Hillman, I've got the Royals finishing with a .500 record, if that ever happens than Hillman wins the award with ease.

Rookie of the Year - David Price, The AL rookie of the year will pretty much be determined by whom gets called up quicker between Price and Matt Weiters. My guess is that Price is up in the first week of may and utterly dominates.

Comeback Player of the Year - Brad Penny, He'll fit in just fine with the Red Sox after an injury plagued 2008. If he wins say 13-15 games the Red Sox will be in great shape for a postseason run.

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.
