Back From Vacation Quick Notes

~The Vacation was much needed. Much Much Needed.

The Masters

~The Masters looked like it was awesome but I saw limited of it. I was rarely in my cabin on sunday but even when I was the DirectTV wasn't picking up the local channels and thus not picking up CBS's coverage.

~Angel Cabrera was not even on my radar for Masters contention. Not on the radar, which makes it three years in a row.

~Tiger and Phil looked like the made the opening 9 of Sunday a lot of fun.

~Kenny Perry choked and his press conference just seemed like "Aww shucks I'm southern, it's not that bad." Maybe that aww shucks is why you didn't win.

~Shingo played pretty damn well. It would have been cool to see the Green Jacket and Hat combo.

~Whiner Sergio bitched again, which is making him more difficult to pull for.

~My predictions were... eh.

Baseball

~The whole Nick Adenhart saga was depressing and sad and tragic.

~I will truly miss Harry Kalas fantastic voice.

~In oddities, while I was driving back to Lexington on monday afternoon my girlfriend was playing around with wikipedia and she looked up her hometown, Northborough Mass, and rattled off the famous people from there. One of those famous people? Mark the Bird Fydrich. We get home and on the bottom line, he's dead.

~The Red Sox are STRUGGLING.

~Pedroia bashing his hometown is hilarious.

~Chris Carpenter is headed back to the DL. SHIT.

~Wang might as well go back on the DL if he's going to pitch like he has the past two games.

NBA

~Yay the regular season ends today. Finally. There are actually meaningful games for seeding purposes tonight but alas, I don't really care.

~In more important NBA news, the White Warriors are going to lose in the championship game.

~Isiah Thomas to Florida International is weird very weird, but I guess it makes sense. Florida International is looking to get in the news, and Isiah Thomas has no other options.

Soccer

~The Chelsea Liverpool match yesterday was phenomenal. If you ever contemplated getting into soccer yesterdays Champions League Quarterfinal match would have been a great starting point.

~Ya that's probably good enough. This weekend was basically about the Masters, everything else was just a footnote.

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.
