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.

The pueblo chieftain.

The Kansas City Chiefs are in a little bit of a pickle. Trying to come back from a 2 win season last year, they acquired the would-be benched ex-Patriot, Matt Cassel. Unfortunately for the Chiefs, Cassel lasted only three plays in Saturday night's game, hobbling off the field with a leg injury. The Chiefs also lost cornerback Brandon Flowers (hey, isn't that the singer of The Killers??), and receiver Devard Darling on shoulder and leg injuries, respectively.

This could be super ugly for the Chiefs, as they just signed Cassel into a six-year $63 million contract. Without having a win in over nine months, and no word on their starting quarterback, the team is going to hell in a handbasket this Thursday against St. Louis.

Good luck...you'll need it.

Vick is high like an eagle.

Convicted dog killer/NFL quarterback Michael Vick has reportedly just signed a deal with the Philadelphia Eagles for the 2009 season. Vick's agent, Joe Segal, gave word that both sides had come to an agreement, and Vick will be hitting the showers shortly.

Just keep him away from the mascots.

Vick is slated to head up against Tom Brady's new bionic leg and the New England Patriots in the first exhibition game of the season. That one should be interesting. Robot versus Animal Killer.

I like baseball better.
