Two things about NY sports right now—
First, Ryan Church, the outfielder for the Mets diagnosed with post-concussion syndrome (and therefore a brother of mine in the world of medical charts) has been cleared to play. The media is having a field day. Why? They don’t seem to care that I’ve been to work pretty much every day since I was diagnosed with the same damn thing.
Second, Brett Favre is now the QB on my favorite football team, the Jets. Chad Pennington, their now ex-QB, is on the Dolphins roster. What to do with my Chad Pennington Jets jersey? Keep it, for a game, like 10 years from now when it will be cool again to wear his jersey? Be a total tool and get a Favre jersey? Or just buy a green shirt and write “Jets” on it. No matter what, this development has the makings of a dramatic football season. I can’t wait.
I haven’t had this much fun with sports since I saw the most boring spring training game ever (Giants vs the A’s) in Phoenix this past spring. At least I had a nice date for that one.

Seriously..the Mets and the Jets...what kind of Jersey boy are you??? lol ;)
Um, the Jets, like the Giants, play in Jersey. Plus, they're getting to be like the Red Sox (circa 2003) of the NFL.
Speaking of the Sox, they're still #1. I like the Mets. I love the Sox.
I invoked the Mets because one of their key players has the same number of brain-scattering bumps on his head as I have. I tune in to see how he is perceived.
How's it going?
All is well on this side. How are you?
Dizzy. But otherwise awesome.
Do I need to break out the protective head gear for you?? Or is the dizziness just due to the after effects of the old injuries??
