Haha. I usually brace myself for negativity when I read a Bill Simmons column, because he tends to be so Boston-centric. But today I found myself pleasantly surprised:
"As much as I worry about the Jets' defense whipping up a batch of Henne Parmigiana, here's the reality: This is a really good matchup for Miami. You will see.
As for the Braylon Edwards trade, here was my gut reaction on Twitter: 'Braylon Edwards is going to go over in NYC about as well as a 50-foot Dustin Pedroia statue.' I stand by it, but the reaction from readers was better: A number of you pointed out the irony of Edwards getting shipped out of town two days after socking one of LeBron's friends, with the implication being, 'Even the other Cleveland teams are trying to keep LeBron happy.' And it's true. We are all witnesses."
