So Brett Farve announced his retirement. Thank heavens we didn't have to put up with the whole drama queen press conference with the crocodile tears. I'll speak as a Jets fan first than a football fan. Farve was terrific for much of the season turning a 4 & 12 disaster into a playoff contender. He was awful down the stretch, but part of the blame goes to Mangini and the incompetent coaching staff who refused to alter a failing game plan. He also broke down proving that remarkable streak of never missing a start took it's toll. As for those who say he tainted his legacy I say have a clue. You can't undo all the great work, magical moments, 2 Super Bowl appearances and 3 MVP's. From my chair a murdering pig like O.J tainted his legacy or the clown patrol in baseball like Bonds, Clemens or A-Rod. For the record, as an occasional customer I received an e-mail from the Jet Shop informing me all Brett Farve gear is now 50% off. Nice try!
With all the talk about Ernie Kent feeling the heat, was wondering about the G.S article in today's Guard that mentioned Rick Pitino as a possible replacement. Really? Where the hell did that come from? Pitino is as far west as we'll ever see him in Louisville. How does a guy with a career path from Boston, to Providence, to New York, to Kentucky, back to Boston to Louisville at age 57 figure to work Eugene in there? Much more on this and Duke/North Carolina, baseball and you on today's show.

People who think Ernie Kent should be fired are nuts. They should name the feakin' arena after him. Who do they think will replace him? This ain't Chapel Hill or Westwood. Kent's earned a season pass.
Belotti's had disappointing seasons and I didn't hear a peep.
