Fantasy Kicker Rankings

Lets be honest, kickers will not win or lose you a fantasy season, if you get upset because you lose a week because your kicker only put up 2 points well then your an ass. Just draft a kicker based on which teams you think are going to score a lot of points. And really there is no need to jump out and rush to get a kicker. It's better to have solid backups for when your players get injured than the #1 kicker in fantasy. Hell they really don't even dserve pictures.

1. Adam Vinatieri - 8th Round - He's really the no-brainer #1 kicker. First of all he's an outstanding pro bowl caliber kicker, secondly he's on a team that will score a boatload of points.

2. Shayne Graham - 9th Round - The Bengals will obviously score a ton of points plus he's a red-head and the automatically shoots himself up a few spots.

3. Neil Rackers - 9th Round - The Cards have a ton of offensive weapons and Rackers put up mucho points last year, really no reason to think otherwise.

4. Josh Brown - 10th Round - 4 Games against the Cards and 49ers equals lots of points for the Seahawks.

5. Jeff Wilkins - 10th Round - Look at me I also have 4 games versus the Cards and 49ers.

6. Lawrence Tynes - Last Round - The Chiefs have been an offensive juggernaut ever since the takeover of Vermeil, but Herm's a lieing douchebag so I'm not going to draft any Chiefs.

7. John Carney - Last Round - Maybe I'm the only Saint believer on the planet but they have always had offensive weapons, now they have a brighter quarterback and the most dynamic rookie offensive weapon in decades.

8. Mike Vanderjagt - Last Round - Someone is probably going to snatch him up well before the guys listed above are selected, I just don't expect the Cowboys to score as many points as the teams listed above, and his better kicking skills will not be that valuable.

9. Jason Elam - Last Round - The benefit of Elam is that he kicks in the high altitude and can make long field goals. However, the Broncos offense is a bit questionable with Mike Bell at the running back helm.

10. Jay Feeley - Last Round - The Gmen should score a solid amount of points despite their difficult schedule. Just make sure you have him on the bench when they play in Seattle.

11. Nate Kaeding - Last Round - The defenses in the AFC West are not the best and if Philip Rivers clicks like I think he will than Kaeding will be a good option at the kicker spot, although LT never fails to get into the end zone.

12. John Casey - Last Round - A reliable long time employed kicker, not great at the long kicks but the Panthers should score a decent amount of points despite their tough division.

13. Jeff Reed - Last Round - The Steelers scored a lot of points in the playoffs and without the Bus they could possibly struggle at the goalline and that would result in several chip shot field goals.

14. Olindo Mare - Last Round - The AFC East has morphed from the best division in football to a weaker division the Dolphins have the potential to be the best offense in that division and thus score the most points for their kicker.

15. David Akers - Last Round - Probably the last kicker thats really worth drafting, a veteran who was injured last year and could return to form this year.

Token Jet - Mike Nugent - Ya I don't expect the Jets to score a ton of points but in the slim opportunities he should be good. As much as I would like to advise taking Jets, it's really really hard to.

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.
