Weekly Sports Poll:
In poll the New York Jets and General Manager Mike Tannenbaum decided not to listen to our results as the team made Mark Sanchez the seventh highest paid quarterback in the NFL and told Peyton Manning to look for work elsewhere.
Over 51 percent felt the Jets would be best served to spend the money and bring in Manning for a few years to mentor the Sanchize, but Tannenbaum and crew feel that the fourth year quarterback is both the present and future.
It’s March, so this week’s poll question deals with the topic that will be on everyone’s mind for the next month: The NCAA Tournament.
Kentucky and Syracuse come into the field of 68 as the top two seeds but as we all know, anything can happen in March.
Let us know what number one seed you think has the best chance to win it all this season in our , and if you don’t think any of them will win let us know in the comments section.
