Antonio Cromartie is a s*%! talking mother f@&%$#r!

(image courtesy of FTRsports.com)

The Jets sure know how to stir up a shit storm, don't they? We've got Braylon Edwards driving around twice as drunk as he's legally entitled. Rex Ryan is off in a corner sucking on innocent women's toes. And Antonio Cromartie is just running his mouth all over the place.

First of all, you guys make a ton of money. Why are you driving around drunk? It's not like you can't afford a cab ride home. Dumbass.

Rex, oh Rex. To each their own.

New York Jets cornerback Antonio Cromartie has had some choice words on his opponents and some union officials over the past couple of weeks. After publicly titling New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady 'an asshole,' amongst other things, he is back at it. This time firing at the heads of NFL and 
the labor union that is supposed to protect the players.

Apparently they need to 'get their damn minds' and 'their shit together.'

Granted, the interviewer did start inquiring about Cromartie's opinion on the labor talks immediately following their embarassing loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday. I think it is safe to say that one wouldn't necessarily convey the right emotion while slamming locker doors during an interview.

While I know Rex Ryan couldn't care less about Cromartie's word vomit problem, we'll see what the league has to say about his commentary.

Super Bowl XLV





So, The Jets choked once again. They just really couldn't pull it together at all. I could have walked away from the game entirely after realizing that the Steelers had possession of the ball for the first nine or ten minutes of the game. By halftime the game was pretty much over. The Jets tried to rally in the second half, but couldn't cut the mustard, ending the game at a 24-19 loss.

I think Rex Ryan just put a foot in his mouth somewhere.

With that, I am no longer truly excited about either team winning the game, but I am truly excited about coming up with my Super Bowl party menu! What is a Super Bowl without gorging yourself with some of the most unhealthy goodies and lots and lots of beer?

Here's what my household has to look forward to:

  • Chicken wings with Frank's hot sauce. It really is the best. I learned that from dad.
  • Chipotle pot roast enchiladas. Complete with home made enchilada sauce.
  • Black beans.
  • Beef franks in blankets. Because pork has been recently outlawed in my social circle.
  • Blueberry dump cake. If you really want to know, just ask. It's to die for, and takes 15 minutes to make. Even my brother could make this cake.
  • Beer. American micro brews to be exact.
  • Mimosas. Because champagne makes for good day time drinking.
  • Hummus and veggies. Because you have to have something redeeming on the table.
Good luck to the teams that prevailed in today's games, and I will see you on the couch! Don't forget the wet naps.

Back on the field.

Holy shit, where have I been? Really?

It has been quite some time, and the time has brought upon some great changes in my life. Now that those things are settling themselves into some sort of regular order, I plan on reconnecting with you out there. Yeah, you. The one reading this right now. I've missed you.

So, while I haven't been sharing my point of view on the wild world of sports, I certainly still have one.

Let's start with football. My Jets are back in the playoffs, and really looking like properly assembled squad. Taking out the Patriots was a huge feat, but in the end it was all about who could get their tight pants in order and complete the task. Tom Brady just couldn't hold it together. Not that it really matters. He's still married to a super model and making $50M a year. Holler.

Spring training starts in a few short weeks, so I will surely be making my trek out to Camelback Ranch for some hot sun, cold beer, and hot guys in baseball gear. Screw Christmas, my holidays are coming up this spring.

That is LOVE.

Minnesota Vikings fans have taken it upon themselves to woo their new favorite quarterback to come throw for another year by purchasing billboard space near Brett Favre's home in Mississippi! I have never seen anything like this in my life, and I know that as a Jets fan, we weren't going to pull any crap like that.

Vikings fans collected over $2,600 in order to keep the billboard up for the month. Bravo!

However, Favre did play a much better hand for the Vikings than he did for us.

I don't know why they spell things with R's in places they don't belong either. Inside joke that I missed? Someone explain that one to me.

I wonder if he will respond. What do you think?

Talk about a big OOPS!

New York Jets coach Rex Ryan was apparently caught on someone's cell phone camera flipping off an MMA contender at a match in Florida last weekend. The photos hit the internet in no time, but I have yet to see one. I'm sure legal teams are involved. The Jets have already fined Ryan $50,000 for his "obscene gesture," and the NFL has decided that they will not impose any further fines for his behavior.

I wonder what caused the bird to fly because I don't throw those things around for no reason. Some Dolphins fans in the house?

All of these rules of conduct really make me wonder. No guns, no Twitter, no flipping people off. What will these men do if they can't get drunk and shoot themselves?

Sick day, part un.

The one benefit of being home sick is the ability to indulge in endless amounts of recreational reading. Assuming you are up for anything other than sleeping or watching made for TV movies. I slept for most of the day, but I have finally had enough Emergen-C to do something other than zone out while looking at an LCD screen.

The brain is back on, and I have officially graduated to sitting up in bed with a laptop trying to pilfer through articles and emails in an attempt to give you something entertaining to read.

The New York Jets played a pretty decent hand this season. Aside from the occasional floundering rookie stuff, it's the best they have looked in years. Even though I went into yesterday's game believing they would not pass the Colts, I was slightly disappointed when they blew it in the second half. Oh well. Another Super Bowl that I will watch as indifferently as any other.

Congratulations to the badass Peyton Manning and his Colts, and to the New Orleans Saints as they make their first ever Super Bowl appearance. Although they only made it that far because Favre turned the ball over five too many times, and the refs blatantly made some questionable calls. But who am I to judge? All I do is get opinionated, and share it with strangers on the internet.

Rex Ryan Rules.

New York Jets coach Rex Ryan and his winning team dedicated their playoff triumph against the Cincinnati Bengals to owner Woody Johnson in remembrance of his late daughter, heiress Casey Johnson.

The players gave Casey a moment of silence before the game, and all players wore juvenile diabetes awareness bracelets in her honor.

When asked if if all the love made him feel any better, Johnson replied, "no, it doesn't help."

It's the thought that counts, right?

Jets, Jets, Jets!

So, the New York Jets didn't completely bomb this year. After all, we are getting post season play. With our heavy duty tackler, David Harris, on the field against Cincinnati's rookie runners, this could be another game in the bag. I love it.

I would delve further into this topic of the conversation, but the game is starting.

Go Jets!

Sanchez brings home NY Braggin' Rights.

It's official - the New York Jets have a starting quarterback. And apparently he plays in the NFL much better than some of us had previously thought. Mark Sanchez went 13 for 20, threw for 149 yards, and put 20 points on the board in just over 2 1/2 quarters tonight. The kid looks good, and earned the Jets, and new coach Rex Ryan, their first win of the year, beating the New York Giants 27-25.

I must say, if my baseball team can't take me through the fall, it looks like my football team just might.

Cheers to that!

Rookie vs. Ravens

Former USC Trojan quarterback is moving on up, and is being thrown up against some major competition. Now throwing for the New York Jets, Mark Sanchez will face Ray Lewis and the rest of the Baltimore Ravens in a preseason game of Monday Night Football on August 24th.

Having been a Cal student, and having an aversion to schools that I could never afford to go to, I've never been a Trojans fan. I know what the kid can do, but now he's playing for my pro team. This is no joke.

While his future for the full season is still up in the air with Kellen Clemens still in the running for that favored QB spot, Sanchez really showed some stuff in his first start against the St. Louis rams on Friday, and his efforts did not go unnoticed. Sanchez remains calm and cool about the decision for him to start over Clemens, and is said to be excited.

I'm undoubtedly glad to have some fresh blood in my favored NFL squad. Although his career started with one of my least favorite college teams, I'm going to accept Sanchez with open arms in hopes that the Jets can actually do something relatively exciting this year. I won't be rocking a #6 jersey, but I'll certainly be cheering him on.

J-E-T-S, Jets, Jets, Jets!
