Feburary 11th, 2010
So, I'm stuck in Williamsburg, a super trendy (Hipster, sorry forgot the proper term for a second) part of Brooklynn waiting for the snow storm to ease off so I can fly back the the complete opposite style of place, my home Escondido. Make's total sense to start a sports blog right now huh? No not really, unless you consider that Williamsburg is about as sports friendly as San Diego is snowy. Seriously, I walked into a little coffee shop on Bedford Ave with my sister, and people looked at my Buckeye hoody as if the establishments foundation was moved there from Ann Arbor.
I figure out of all the things I could rant about or unfairly judge tonight in this NBA All-Star Break, Lack of Baseball, whether or not Mcnabb will be an Eagle/Is Favre retiring? a.k.a. the usual. I think I'm going to go with a Empire City theme tonight.
So news from today, the New Jersey Giants cut ties to one of their more problematic but talented players, Antonio Pierce. No he's not guilty of this - but of this, yes. Pierce was shocked, and extremely poised, but confused as to why he was let go. He may have found the rea
son in his released statement, "They said it wasn't my health, or the way I played, but just that -- that they were going in another direction". Another direction, just fancy business lingo or euphimism? Like it's even a question, saying "another direction" here is as straightfoward as any of the Spanos' claiming dropping Drew Brees was a good desicion. It's not just Pierce's infamous air horn stunt that makes this a good desicion, he also was not one for team chemistry, or knowing when to stay out of the spotlight. This looks good for the Giants to me, less drama, less "me" players, more of what helped Coughlin win a ring, Coughlinism, tough, militaristic, football. Good on ya mates.

Good on ya mates.As for the Knick's and Nets, (yes I know they are from Jersey... don't worry I'm going somewhere with this one) you guys need to figure this out. I'm a Laker fan by default and even I hate seeing the eastern seaboard minus The Celtics be pathetic. Well, I've never liked The Celtics but thats beside the point. Alright heres my plan to fix you both:
Knicks: Get Tmac, do it.
Nets: Let Jay-Z run the show. Seriously, the man can market the pants off Beyonce'. Move them here to Brooklynn, build a new stadium, create jobs etc. Let him make a Blueprint for success, and stop getting point guards once their careers are on the decline. And get off that Auto-tune cuz we onnnnnnn.Follow that and boom, success will rain upon you. Don't fear success, even if it takes a shot at you.
I like it alot.. continue to do it fer sureeeee
