My teams are terrible


Remember all that New York Knicks excitement from a week ago. Well, that's gone. The Knicks got obliterated by Miami (who have LeBron James), and then lost to lowly Cleveland (who don't have anyone). Thankfully, the Knicks don't play again until Wednesday, so they can get some much needed rest. On Wednesday though they play the 19-10 Kevin Durant Thunder. And then Chicago on Christmas day, followed by Miami again and Orlando. Come 2011, there is a very good chance the Knicks will be on a seven game losing streak. I know I'm Jewish and Hanukah's over, but if I could get a Christmas gift, Santa, please bring Carmelo Anthony.

The New York Giants suffered the most painful regular season loss I can remember in my nearly 17 years of life on Sunday. Apparently being up by 21 points with eight minutes to go is not a safe lead for the G-men, who all but handed the Philadelphia Eagles the NFC East title.
From missed tackles, to a misfielded onside kick, to the dumbest punt I have ever
seen, the Giants literally collapsed. The Giants can still clinch the wildcard with a win next week against Green Bay, but if they don't, Tom Coughlin should be fired immediately.

Also, I am so sick and tired of the Jets. Can people PLEASE stop talking about the Jets. Who cares besides some whack-job fireman and some other people who can spell a four letter word really loudly?

Oh, the Devils. Now ranked 30th out of 30 teams, the New Jersey Devils have literally hit the bottom. After a 7-1 loss to Atlanta, the team that traded the Devils Ilya Kovalchuk, it is apparent that this season is over for the Devils, not that it wasn't before. The gradual decline of the Devils has been in motion for a few years now, with the departure of players like Scott Stevens, Ken Daneyko, Scott Niedermayer, Jay Pandolfo, and John Madden, to name a few, but the decline has reached its zenith this season. Martin Brodeur just can't seem to do it anymore. Ilya Kovalchuk is looking the
worst signing in the history of the NHL, and no one else can score goals either. First year head coach John Maclean should be fired shortly, and general manager Lou Lamoriello can start the rebuilding process. I can't believe I'm saying this, but the Devils are rebuilding.
