NFL splash/hoops

It looks like a couple big NFL stories were almost un-noticed on sunday thanks to all the excitement of the NCAA tourney unfolding. LT signed a two year deal with the New York Jets. While it's going to take awhile to get used to seeing him not in a Chargers jersey, this is a big upgrade for the Jets. They were a threat last season in the AFC without him. They were a good team with some talent that played well into the playoffs. Now, they are a very good team with one really special player that can make them a legit contender. Watch out Pats and Colts for those Jets. LT makes that #1 running attack in the NFL even scarier, and we already know how good the defense will be. Jets will be a tough out next postseason.

Also, I discovered that my blog (while not flashy) may have magic powers! One of my posts from last spring has come true. My Denver Broncos just traded to get QB Brady Quinn from the Browns on Sunday. Wow, that's going to be very interesting to see if he wins the starting job in preseason. With McDaniels' coaching skills, just maybe he can become the Broncos next franchise QB. Like I said, MAYBE. I'm going to be optimistic on this one.

With the NCAA tourney getting underway this week, I'm forced to go back on my original impression of Syracuse being my gut pick to win it all. After watching Championship week, I've got this really strong feeling that this is going to be Kansas' year....AGAIN. They just have that pesky look to them that makes me believe they won't be beat. They have the talent and so much depth, it's hard to see them losing. I've got Kentucky vs Kansas in the title game, would be FUN to watch.
