2009, The Year of Mets Devastation

Just for fun let's take a look at the New York Mets Opening Day Roster to see just how devastated the New York Mets Roster is. We shall do this by listing their 25 man roster according to team importance.

DISABLED
1. Johan Santana - DISABLED 8/26
2. Carlos Beltran - DISABLED 6/22
3. Jose Reyes - DISABLED 5/21
4. David Wright - DISABLED 8/16
6. Carlos Delgado - DISABLED
8. John Maine - DISABLED 6/7
9. Oliver Perez - DISABLED 6/25
10. JJ Putz - DISABLED 6/5
16. Alex Cora - DISABLED 8/19

PREVIOUSLY INJURED
15. Brian Schneider, DISABLED from April 18-May30

TRADED
11. Ryan Church
18. Ramon Castro

RELEASED
17. Livan Hernandez
24. Darren O'Day
25. Marlon Anderson

HEALTHY
5. Fransisco Rodriguez
7. Mike Pelfrey
12. Luis Castillo
13. Sean Green
14. Daniel Murphy
16. Pedro Feliciano
17. Fernando Tatis
19. Bobby Parnell
20. Brian Stokes.
21. Jeremy Reed

So to sum up only 10 of the 25 man opening day roster have remained healthy throughout the season. Of these 10 players only two could be categorized as amongst the 10 most important players on the roster. Only 2 of these players were considered everyday starters. The remainder is either bullpen or backups. In the end their 4 best hitters have been lost and 4 of their 5 starters in their opening day rotation is done.

2009 has been a bad year for the Mets.

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.
