Day 205

Fresh Start_205: All charges dropped
With the charges against Darrelle Revis being dropped this afternoon, the career of Revis Island is over. Being 30 years old, the Revis is aging beyond his years, he has lost about 2 or 3 steps, and will have to move to safety even when he can’t tackle. Being a 30-year-old corner going on 42, Revis has limited options on where he will go in free agency. There is no doubt that Revis will want to go to a contender for more money than he is worth because Revis only cares about money.

Throughout Darrelle Revis’ career, he has collected boat loads of cash, and why would that change now that he is once again a free agent. With that, there are a select few teams that could offer him a $8-10 Million contract.

If he ends up on any NFL team in 2017, I could see Revis ending up on Pittsburgh or Houston. It would be an $8 Million guaranteed contact for maybe a season and by the end of the year he would move to safety. Again, being 30, coming off a season where he had only 1 interception, 5 pass deflection, and 53 combined tackles. His interception numbers are tied with a career low, and the amount of pass deflections is second worse in his career (3 in 2012).

Revis doesn’t deserve another contract in the NFL based off his performance in 2016. I was one of the many that was excited fans when the Jets signed Revis in the offseason two years ago, but time has changed my opinion on Revis and with his performance it just doesn’t make sense that he would get another contract with the amount that he will be asking for. Any team that does fork over any lump sum to Darrelle Revis will feel the same repercussions that the Texans felt with Brock Osweiler, period.

2024 MLB Preview

  Opening Day is about 24 hours away and the Shohei Ohtani gambling story has stole all the headlines and fleeting moments of baseball conversation over the past few days, many have now forgotten about the exciting marathon ahead of us! Even with the ever-evolving Ohtani story clouding the beginning of the Los Angeles Dodgers season, that doesn’t change the fact that L.A. is still the team to beat in baseball. The Dodgers have put their chips at the center of the table, no pun intended, for 2024 to show they can raise another World Series trophy after sending upwards of a billion dollars in free agency. In division however, the surprise Arizona Diamondbacks are capitalizing on their newfound championship window with a fantastic offseason that will have them in the mix to get back to a second straight fall classic. The San Diego Padres are done shopping for superstars, sort of, following a massively disappointing season that saw them move on from one of the games generational talent...

Dan Hurley Saved College Basketball

When you think of Men’s College Basketball, the names of Wooden, Dean, Krzyzewski, Williams, Thompson, and Calipari shoot to mind right away. All the memories of the great teams from UCLA, Duke, North Carolina, Kentucky, the Big East, UNLV, and even the Fab Five start to rush back. Nostalgia of a time when the sport meant something different. For all those longing for the days when great teams didn’t dissipate into the transfer portal after one disappointing year—Dan Hurley and the Connecticut Huskies are here to save the day! UConn has done something that only seven other programs have done in the history of college basketball, repeat as champions. Forget all the talk about “best team of all-time,” even though if you look at point differential (like it truly matters), this UConn team is the best team to ever play in the NCAA Tournament. This team means much more to the game of college basketball than that. Coach Hurley has given college basketball what it has been missing since the in...

Last Year the Season was one game long, it's different this year

  It took 363 days, but Jets fans finally got the debut from Aaron Rodgers they waited for. This time around that debut ended in a blowout loss on the road to the San Francisco 49’ers. Last year the Jets won the battle but lost the war following their overtime walk-off win against the Buffalo Bills. This year, the Jets hope they lost the battle but because they have Rodgers they will win the war.   Of all the ways the game could have gone last night, having the Jets defense get thoroughly dominated on the ground by a third year running back, Jordan Mason, who wasn’t a household name until last night, wasn’t on the bingo card. The trademark for Robert Saleh has been his defense. That’s what got him hired from San Francisco. The defense is what Jet fans have pointed to as a reason for optimism heading into this year with Rodgers. The defense was finally supposed to get the complimentary football they have been dying for since Robert Saleh walked in the doors at Florham Park...
