Quick Notes: Handling Multiple Small But Mildly Coherent Thoughts

Don't particularly have anything worthy of dedicating a large coherent post to so we bring the quick notes.

NFL

~Santonio Holmes and his gigantic dong are now a New York Jet (starting week 5). Weeee! Giving up a 5th round pick for a receiver that over 1200+ yards seems like stealing but I guess the Steelers are attempting to de-Douchify their roster. The combination of Keller/Edwards/Holmes/Cotchery will probably make Dirty Sanchez a very very happy quarterback next season. Now he just needs to not suck.

~Speaking of the Jets bringing in a Class A Douche, the New York Jets have pulled a complete 180 as a franchise since the Mangini days. They are now bringing in highly flawed character guys instead of focusing on high character guys. They went from a locked down nobody gets information from anyone society to on Hard Knocks.

~Chad Henne is probably todays happiest person.

~M(r)s. Johnette Howard went a little overboard yesterday proclaiming the Patriots dead and the Jets king of the AFC East. Maybe it's the pessimism of being a Jet fan but the Pats have won the division basically every season Tom Brady had an ACL. Can we calm down a bit and wait til the season starts?

MLB

~It was nice to see Matsui get such a big ovation on opening day at the Stadium. He was as clutch as they come and obviously won the MVP. With that being said, I think I'm already over it. Because...

~Nick Johnson is going to love Yankee Stadium. As long as he doesn't get injured (might take a minor miracle) and stops playing Miley Cyrus as his AB music, he's going to have a monster year in the Bronx.

~Amazing how many injuries happen over the course of the first week of the season. J-Roll appears to be down. Miguel Montero is out. Chipper is already doing his annual injury rotation. Brian Roberts is on the DL. Etc.

~The Mets rotation might be the worst in major league baseball. John Maine is DONE. Pelfrey is a headcase. Niese is unproven and Ollie P might still be garbage. It could be a very long and empty season at ShCiti Field.

~Dear O-Dog, Shut up. Jermaine Dye doesn't have a job not because he is black but because he rejected multiple offers and those teams went on to sign other players. Gary Sheffield doesn't have a job because he's over 40 and he's an asshole.

~Mike Napoli makes me sad.

NBA

~The Celtics are pretty much a rotting corpse right now and will likely get bounced easily by the Cavs if not by the Heat. The Cs sold their soul for a single title which no person can bitch about at all, but I can dream of what would have happened if they wound up with the 2nd pick of that lottery and their current starting 5 was Rondo, Pierce, Durant, Big Al, Perk. Right?

~I hope OKC stays at #8 because Durant vs. Kobe round 1 would be fun.

~Dell Curry can't vote for his son as Rookie of the Year. This is news!

NHL

~Has John Tortorella been fired yet?

~Hockey playoffs start tonight. Perhaps I will put together a predictions bracket which will be sure to fail.

College Football

~Way to go RichRod! You go and get your old university in trouble for practice violations.

~Speaking of Michigan vs. West Virginia, I think I need to dedicate an entire post to just how miserable this stealing Mountaineer coaches has gone for the Wolverines compared to WVU.

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.
