Paul Mac's weekly rantings...

Paul Mac and Sportsbyfletch's head editor exchanged emails and Sleazy P's thoughts were just crazy enough to become his weekly rants.... With no further ado

PM: I try not to hope for anyone's demise, but Lane Kiffin was absolutely horrible in his pro gig... TOM CABLE out coached him and eventually got the RAIDERS... to play good football at the end of the year which is simply ridiculous. Tennessee needed a shake up... well that's what they got. I guess we know they plan to run to football. I just find it odd that this glass house guy would be throwing stones in the direction of the area of the country that produces more redonkulously fast athletes than any other.... really... REALLY? You put down Pahokee Florida..? USC is in Watts Jerk. Sorry that stud athletes just don't arbitrarily live in Alpharetta or Knox county. I hope they never let the guy back in the door.

SBF: I am pissed at Justin Houston for eliminating ANY chance that UGA had of beating Okie State. I was going to say ALL summer that Okie State was going to win then about 12 minutes before kickoff, I was going to call you and say, "Dude, you know I'm just messin' right? Georgia is going to wax that Pokie buttocks!" But now I am NOT going to do that. Thanks.

PM: Georgia is going to wax that Pokie Buttocks... I'm not remotely concerned. Coming out party for new UGA defense led by the interior of the D Line (best in the SEC 2009 season)... wreaking havoc and causing 3 costly turnovers. Georgia has been to Tiger stadium at night... they are not afraid of Stillwater... it's almost as intimidating as...wait for it.... Columbia, SC.

SBF: Bruce Figgins, with Orson Charles and Arthur Lynch coming in and Aron White already there, you might as well just transfer with Zac Swansey to Tennessee Tech. (Hey Swansey, way to show Mark Fox who's boss. I'll bet he'll REALLY miss YOU!)

PM: Bruce Figgins is lucky he has a scholarship and can finish school, because if those other guys learn to block, he'll never play again. Zac Swansey...seriously? Your new coach is already better than your old coach... wtf?

SBF: I am also pissed at a little girl from Cabo for stealing my handshake with the Dolphins. We "swam with the dolphins" but when it was my turn to do a trick, she started whining and the dolphin trainer appeased her with a trick when it was MY turn. Yeah, she was 7 and I'm 27, but I can act like a four year old with the BEST of them!

PM: "I teach dolphins how to stunt" - 50 Cent

SBF: LeBron is pretty freaking good, dude. The Cavs/Lakers series is going to be pretty awesome

PM: Nuggets/Cavs series is going to be awesome. Billups is the most underappreciated NBA player.

SBF: Do we think the Bulls will sign-and-trade Ben Gordon to Atlanta in exchange for Joe Johnson, or do we think the Bulls like John Salmons too much? Can you imagine a lineup of Andre Miller, Ben Gordon, Josh Smith and Al Horford (zaza if you'd like, or maybe you draft DeJuan Blair from Pitt?) OR you ink Jarrett Jack or Raymond Felton, trade Joe Johnson for Tyson Chandler (The Hornets would LOVE to have Johnson's contract, which expires after the season) and you draft Gerald Henderson and Wayne Ellington.... let's move to football, shall we? I think the Eagles, Falcons, Saints, Giants, Cardinals and Vikings make the playoffs in the NFC. I think the Falcons beat the Saints in round one while the Giants beat the Vikings. In round two, I have to think that the Eagles knock off the Giants and the Falcons take care of the Cardinals now that Brooking is gone. BUTTTTTTTTTTTT the Dirty Birds will fall to Donovan and the Eggles in the NFC championship and all of the Vick apologists will scream that Matty Ice couldn't beat the Eagles either! But the Falcons WILL score 32 ppg. NFC title game will be 42-38 Philly. Not a lot of defense in that one.
Over in the AFC, I think New England, Pitt, Indy and San Diego take the divisions with Balt and KC as the wildcards. YEPPER! Look for Indy to beat the Chiefs and Sandiego to edge Flacco. New England takes out San Diego and Pitt beats Indy and it is Big Ben losing to New England.
Brandy beats McNabb yet again to crush (680 the Fan's) Kincade's heart

PM: I like where your heads at. I just hope the offense can keep up with the bend don't break defense. The good news is even though they will give up yards and make some mistakes.. I think they are fast enough to create some turnovers too as far as the Falcons.

Here is my question though. are you really that high on the Kansas City Matt Cassel's? I know you are looking at that division and going... hmm. San Diego and a lot of yuck. Hell it was probably process of elimination... but... I just feel like KC needs this year to deal with transition before they get a lot better. There really isn't anyone else unless Denver pulls something out of their butt or Tom Cable pulls the impossible. I so want to take the risk with Cincinatti... but I think they might have some stuff blow up in their face like usual.

KC has been stockpiling talent lately... but trading Tony G is a huge detriment to them this season I think.
