Keep that in mind before blowing your hard earned pesos wagering on some overweight lineman. Nobody's going to set any records, anyway. The Big East is super cheap and they'll just run out of lobsters again.

Hands down, we're the best team in the Eastern Conference if healthy." -Caron Butler Perhaps this year's slogan should have been just a giant "IF" on a billboard.
