Some Quick Notes

1. The NFL has signed on Prince to do the halftime show of the Superbowl. Please shoot me. And the last song that Prince had that was popular was? Please eliminate the half time show no one, I repeat no one likes it.

2. Last week the Italians finally finalized their gambling scandal. 3 of the 4 teams were relegated to the lower league while one was severely penalized in points next year. Juventus the team most harshly penalized has won 29 titles since the inception of the league so approximately 110 years. So basically they are the Yankees of the Italian league Serie A. Due to their relegation every single player on their roster is free to move to another team. Could you imagine the ruccus if every Yankee from Jeter to ARod was a free agent? That would be completely ludicrous, I bet it's fun to be a beat reporter of Juventus right now. And terrible to be a fan.

3. I hate Sidney Ponson, he is terrible has always been terrible. Anyone that was hopeful when the Yanks picked him up could not possibly be a Yankee fan. He is worse than Chacon or any other bum the Yanks could throw out there.

4. I hate head to head fantasy leagues. I'm getting completely boned in my CBS league because I always end up getting matched up with people who have their best week of the season. I have put up the most points in the league and lie at 7-7. I have to losses to Lunchbox and if I played him every week I would be 10-4.

5. NYC sports talk radio is getting ridiculous. The only thing they talk about is Arod, it seems to me to be a stale story. He's not going to get traded anytime soon. The fact that the media cared that he went sunbathing and that it could have had an effect on his game, is so profoundly idiotic its unbelievable. All they do is talk about whether he's ever going to get out of this slump how messed up his mind is, blah blah blah, the same shit everyday, it hasn't changed in a month its the same story. Same exact story. Talk about something else during your show.

6. Michael Kay is a goon. He is currently criticizing Tiger Woods for saying that he won this major for his father. Saying that everyone loses a parent and blah blah blah and that it takes away from Chris Dimarco and his mother. Michael Kay he didn't say he won because of his father he just said that this was dedicated to his father. What's their to criticize? He won the event and said it was in honor of his mentor and best friend.

7. More Michael Kay, the guy will rip the Yankees on his radio program. Constantly rip their week lineup, and Jeter and Torre for not backing Arod, and then he gets on YES and he might as well walk around on his knees because he gives so many blow jobs. He flip flops in the span of 30 minutes, it's unbearable, atleast Remy makes no mistake about it that he's pro Red Sox. Jeter should not have to come out and baby Arod and tell the fans not to boo him, that would piss me off and make me want to boo him more. New Yorkers don't want to be told what to do.

8. More Michael Kay, he and Mike Mussina have a non existant relationship they don't like each other. So on his radio program Michael Kay tour apart Mussina for his comments about Arod. Michael Kay is an Arod apologist because he's friends with him, but he doesn't like Mussina so he will rip him. Mussina said nothing but the truth, he said that the error hurt the team. The error lead to the inning spiraling was a bit of an offbased comment. But then he said that the team needs Arod to be what he's supposed to be. Complete fact the Yankees need Arod to meet his lofty expectations to make the playoffs period. People blow any criticism of Arod completely out of proportion.

9. Finalizing the Arod nonsense, Arod gets booed because he doesn't live up to the fans expectations period. It's not the fact that he isn't Jeter it's not the fact his rich as hell. The Yankee fan expects Arod to be the best player in the league, like he was hyped up to be, and he blatantly hasn't so fans are annoyed. Expectations are the killer for any person, build up high expectations and when you perform high but not up to expectations people will be disappointed, have low expections and achieve to the same level and people will be thrilled. Thats it, if Shaq puts up 15 and 10 you say mediocre, if Mark Madsen puts up 15 and 10 you say wow great job tonight Mark.

10. I couldn't care less about the Tour de France whether Lance Armstrong was in it or not. I have no interest in watching people bike ride up hills. And the fact that the guy Landis who won, needs hip replacement surgery, makes me think even less of Armstrongs achievements. Name me another sport you could participate in if you needed hip replacement surgery.

11. I love watching Steve Philips on espn analyze GM moves when he was the moron to sign Mo Vaughn, Robby Alomar and Roger Cedeno to enormous contracts. I really hope that Isiah Thomas gets a job at ESPN to analyze trades for the NBA once he gets fired after this season.

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.
