The Yankees have won it like 4 times since the Mets last did. Anyway, this is the Mets' year. They're playing very well even without their two aces. They also have the big 20th anniversary thing going for them. If it comes to it, I'll take your bet.<BR/><BR/>I'm not worried about who is in last, if you tell me it will be the Bills, I'm willing to go along with that, but I think it will be close.<BR/><BR/>There's no reason to think the Cowboys can't get to the Superbowl. They've made a lot of good moves and addressed most of their problems from last season. We'll see what happens.John Howardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01895903722298748059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8804629.post-1156773595769258092006-08-28T09:59:00.000-04:002006-08-28T09:59:00.000-04:00If it does come down to a subway series, I've got ...If it does come down to a subway series, I've got $20 that says my Yankees mop the floor with your Mets.<BR/><BR/>The Jets will not be good this year, but they won't finish last in the division.

They were also 24th in sacks. Tied for 23rd in turnovers, and had more interceptions than forced fumbles. So I think you're wrong again and must be watching them through some pretty distorted Detroit colored glasses, but that's ok, that's what it's all about.John Howardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01895903722298748059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8804629.post-1156551185565352842006-08-25T20:13:00.000-04:002006-08-25T20:13:00.000-04:00You're wrong, Robert, look it up.

Also, you can't judge those kinds of things by preseason games.<BR/><BR/>Kevin Jones is ok, I don't know if I would say he's even in the top half of starting RBs. He might be, but he's definitely not great.<BR/><BR/>John Kitna is fine. But he isn't going to win any games for you. He's a very slight upgrade from Harrington.<BR/><BR/>Sad that they used three first round picks in a row on WRs and you say that's where they're hurting. Roy Williams is very good, and with or without the other two, he should make their receivers a bright spot.John Howardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01895903722298748059noreply@blogger.com
