Can the New York Jets regroup?


The New York Jets suffered a heartbreaking loss Sunday against the Washington Redskins. They lost the game in overtime by a field goal. The Jets did play pretty good during the game but did have some key mistakes. Dropped passed, blown coverage, unable to stop the run, and they couldn't finish the Redskins off. Now who would you blame? I would blame the receivers and the defense. The receivers dropped five keys passes that would of probably given them the game. The defense allowed the Redskins to get back into the game, we should of stopped them on key third downs and not allowed them to tie the score.



Though the Jets lost the game the do have something to be happy about. Kellen Clemens their new starting quarterback has now given them some hope. He played pretty good during this game, maybe just some badly accurate throws but still kept them in. Kellen Clemens is the future for the Jets and he will be a very strong force on the years to come. Watch out for him next week who ever has him on their fantasy team because, I believe that he will have another strong game. What do you guys think let me know.

From Joe Torre to Joe Girardi


The New York Yankees recently lost their manager Joe Torre, and they hired a new manager former Yankee Joe Girardi. The yanks did try to get Torre back but he denied the resigning and signed with the Los Angleas Dodgers. After losing Torre, team owner started looking at possible ideas of hiring Joe Girardi or even Don Mattingly. They stuck with Joe Girardi for the manager position. Do you believe that the Yankees made the right decision. I'm not quite sure if Girardi is right for the position.



Another blogger Manny Ortiz writes "The Yanks, more than ever in recent memory, need someone who can develop their young arms properly. They can have the best rotation in the game in a few years, or have their guys turn out like the Mets’ Generation K. I don’t see how Girardi will help. "


I believe that Manny is right on this one, Joe Torre had a hard time with the pitching staff, and the switch to Girardi I don't believe the he was the right choice. Even though he was one of the managers of the year, so what he's now dealing with the New York Yankees. The Yankees are a veteran team and with a young coach I don't no. The Yankees did make their choice by signing Joe Girardi and I guess we'll have too just sit and watch.
