Weekend Quick Notes

~I very much enjoyed the fact that both the Spurs and Mavericks got knocked off their pedastal game 1. Could possibly lead to some good first round series. One has to question how the Mavericks who won 67 games this season have been swept thus far this season by the Warriors. Is there truly a possibility that the Mavericks can beat every other team in the NBA but for some unknown reason Nelly has his old squads number? How miserable would it be if a team won 67 games had multiple 15 game win streaks and then got bounced in the first round of the playoffs by a team that hasn't made the playoffs since C-Webb was on the roster. Also, I can't stand the Spurs and would much rather see AI and Carmello move onto the next round. Get some fresh blood in the mix.

~On the opposite side. The Suns, Cavs, and Pistons are going to roll through their series with no issue at all.

~What the hell happenned to Andrei Kirilenko, he used to be a defensive force and an underrated player. Now he's crying on the bench over a lack of playing time?

~I just can't get into the Hockey Playoffs right now. That move to Versus is quite possibly the single dumbest cable move of all time. The NBA was on 8 hours a day this weekend, the NHL on the other hand was on NBC once a day. And Versus, a channel I don't get probably the rest of the time. Stupid.

~Cole Hamels had 15Ks in a game in which his team turned a triple play, that's pretty impressive, 15 Ks in effectively 8 innings.

~The Oreo's are on fire now, and just swept the injury riddled Blue Jays. I think a lot of credit should go to their GM for giving them a solid bullpen this year. Oh wait their GM is Jim Duquette? The same guy that traded Kazmir for Victor Zambrano? OK disregard that credit.

~The Braves are back to their old methods of dominating the Mets at every turn. Should be an interesting year for the typical Braves Mets clashes.

~Why is Barry Bonds hitting a homer every day? Boo to that.

~Speaking of dominance, Rafael Nadal once again rolled Roger Federer on clay. It really is coming down to in order for Federer to win the French this or any year, he needs someone else to knock out Nadal, and considering Nadal has something like a 70 match winning streak on clay, that's probably really doubtful. Chalk up another French Open win for the Spaniard in the gay Capri pants.

~Chelsea sucked it up and drew at Newcastle yesterday, so they remain 3 point behind Man U. Boo to that.

~Man in baggy shorts jacks up dude in tight nut hugging shorts, and the world is a better place.

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.
