Three football posts real quick while the Jets have the ball.
1. Congrats to the Fighting Blue Hens of Delaware on their 1-AA football title. As much as I'd have liked to see Colgate take the crown given their improbable run (considering the school does not give athletic scholarships), it's good to see an old Yankee Conference school take the title.
2. Congrats as well to the Johnnies of St. John's of Minnesota. They end a season that saw their coach, John Gagliardi, become the winningest coach in college football history by winning the division 3 title over Mount Union, who was riding a 55 game winning streak into the game. Maybe the no-contact practices and calling your coach by his first name will catch on elsewhere.
OK, maybe not.
3. If you've been watching the Pats-Jets game, you may have gotten to see Suzy Kolber interview Joe Namath on the sidelines. You know all that crap that William Shatner takes for talking like every word is its own sentence? Namath was actually doing that. He also said on no fewer than 3 occasions that he wanted to kiss Kolber. Thankfully, we didn't get to see if he succeeded.
When Joe Theisman said that Namath was a "happy guy," Paul Maguire concurred with a knowning "Oh yeah, he's happy." Surprisingly, no references to Christmas cheer.
