The Crystal Ball Week 2 Thursday Night Special

Yeah, ok, this was supposed to be much bigger, an extravaganza so to speak. Well, the ol' salt mines were under deadline and I'm sorry, but a boy only gets to celebrate 82 Pirate wins once every 20 years. Don't worry, the big season opening special is still in the works. We'll have a double issue on Sunday without the extra advertising, sound good?

On Tap Tonight

New York Jets (0-1) at New England (1-0)

So apparently, Mark Sanchez has a torn labrum, and will attempt rehab over surgery. I can't see how either will help his performance. And as much as Geno Smith enjoyed posturing at the end of last week's game as though he were the man, I hope he realizes the only reason his crappy team eeked out a victory is because of 13 boneheaded Tampa penalties, including a moronic one at the end that set up the winning field goal attempt. Trust me, that's an idiot of the week contender. Also trust me with this, Geno Smith and company will not be as fortunate this week.
