Creating an All ACC NFL Team

QB 1: Philip Rivers Philip Rivers takes this with very stiff competition which surprisingly is coming mostly from Vick. Honorable Mention: Michael Vick, Matt Ryan, Matt Schaub

RBs 2: Frank Gore & Thomas Jones Surprisingly weak at RB. Miami still leads the way with guys like Gore/Portis/McGhee but only Gore is still in the prime of his career. Honorable Mention: CJ Spiller, Clinton Portis, Willis McGahee

TE 1: Vernon Davis Vernon Davis is a beast. If only he had a solid QB. Honorable Mention: Jeremy Shockey, Kellen Winslow, Greg Olsen

WR 2: Calvin Johnson, Andre Johnson If you have to go just two, I'll take the Johnson boys over Wayne/Nicks. But you certainly would not complain either way. Honorable Mention: Reggie Wayne, Santana Moss, Hakeem Nicks

OT 2: Bryant McKinnie & D'Brickashaw Ferguson Two 2009 Pro Bowlers with not much competition or big names in their way.

OG 2: Chris Snee & Leroy Harris The ACC is a bit week on providing NFL Guards and NFL lineman overall.

C: Jeff Saturday Nearly a perennial Pro Bowler. Honorable Mention: Dan Koppen

DE 2: Julius Peppers & Mario Williams Peppers has been amongst the best for a very very long time and Mario Williams is living up to his #1 billing. Honorable Mention:

DT 2: Vince Wilfork & Kris Jenkins If Jenkins was healthy and combo'd with Wilfork, offensive lines would tremble in their shoes.

LB 3: Ray Lewis, Jonathan Vilma & Keith Brooking Surprisingly the pickings weren't nearly as bountiful as I thought they were going to be.

CB 2: Antonio Cromartie & DeAngelo Hall Hall gets picks and Cromartie is doing a solid job for the Jets. Again similarly to LB this position does not give as much as expected.

S: Ed Reed & Brian Dawkins Safety is a different story. The ACC does a solid job of producing NFL caliber safeties, especially from the state of Florida, and gives the ACC many options to choose from. Honorable Mention: Antrel Rolle, Brandon Meriweather, Adrian Wilson & Chris Hope

Kick Returner: Devin Hester Hester is the best around. Honorable Mention: Leon Washington

Kicker: Sebastian Janikowski He may be fat but he kicks a long way... Honorable Mention: Jeff Reed

Punter: Adam Podlesh He runs unopposed...

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.
