With lots of sports recent sports topics to cover, here are some quick thoughts from the New York perspective.
-The Mets are now the clear favorite to win the National League pennant in 2008 with the addition of the best pitcher in baseball, Johan Santana. But a quick word of warning to Mets fans: Santana is notoriously slow to start the season. His career numbers in the month of April are 9-7 with a 4.23 ERA but in June he is 19-6 with a 2.63 ERA.
-Like it or not Skins fans, Giants defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo is the clear front runner for the head coaching job. Other than the fact that he isn't Joe Gibbs or didn't coach under Gibbs, I can't see any reason why he wouldn't be a good coach in Washington.
-Who do we believe if Roger Clemens tells Congress under oath that he has never used steroids but Brian McNamee tell Congress under oath that Clemens did use steroids? I really don't know.
-Note to Congress (and to a lesser extent, the media): Spygate is not the NFL version of the steroids scandal. No one dies from videotaping a football game.
-It was great to see the Giants parade up the Canyon of Heroes from the vantage point of my 31st floor office building located at Battery Park. The victory is even sweeter when it comes against a team from Boston!
