Tuesday Quick Hits

Tuesday Quick Hits:

For the record, Brett Favre's last three "retirement games" all ended with him throwing an interception. See Heel, Achilles.

So I was 50% correct on my Super Bowl prediction. And allow me a correction: Colts/Cowboys was Super Bowl V, not Super Bowl III (aka, Namath's guarantee). The Daily Del Franco regrets the error.

Larry Brooks, the usually reliable and on-point NY Post columnist covering the Rangers, has allowed his feud with coach John Tortorella to seep into his columns. Why do I say? Slowly, phrases such as "lost the locker room" and "players quitting on the coach" have found their way into recent columns without an attribution or even an unnamed source. Brooks should know better. Take a page from the Godfather, Larry. "It's business, not personal."

Hope For Haiti aired on so many stations Friday night, I was never so relieved to find an episode of Ice Road Truckers. And not to be Ned Negative but where is all the donations and money going? I wonder who's measuring how many pennies on the dollar actually go to the charity (in this case, Haiti).

On first blush, the Mets recent signing of Gary Mathews Jr seemed like a mistake. However, it's a steal given the Angels are eating the majority of Mathew's (awful) contract. A suspected steroid cheat, Mathews signed a big contract with the Angels following a career year before reverting back tomodest career numbers last year. At least he can go get 'em in the spacious Citi Field expanses. One of these days, a column should be devoted to the all-time worst sports contracts. Until then, Carl Pavano, Mike Hampton and Hideki Irabu can rest easy.

Alert the Arden Ave. faithful: I will be in Staten Island for the Super Bowl. Note to Mama Gooch: Start building the monuments...
