Shevchenko: Sportscenter Commercial Star Dealt

In breaking news the star of this recent sportscenter commercial, in which he famously states "I'll suggest it." was dealt in a record transfer of 30 million british pounds or for the uninformed American, 56 million dollars. He transferred from the Italian powerhouse AC Milan to the English powerhouse Chelsea FC.

Real Madrid now has competetion from Chelsea as the "New York Yankees" of football. In the past month Chelsea has signed the captains of two respective World Cup teams. Shevchenko the captain of the Ukranian team, as well as Michael Ballack the captain of the host German team. Soon enough Chelsea full roster will include players who are strictly national team stars, they are fastly approaching this as it is.

Now if you were the 11th richest man on the planet how would you spend your money. I know what I would do, I would buy a sports franchise maybe more than one, and throw a ton of money at it to make sure they succeeded every year. This is why Roman Abromovich the owner of Chelsea is great. He just wants to have the best soccer team in the world so he spends his own cash. I have the utmost respect for you Roman, now can you pass me a few barrels of your oil for free, that would be very kind of you.

Numbers On Steroids: Mickey Mantle

Numbers on Steroids is a look at baseball players during the 90s to see if anything screams out at you. This week it's throwing a curve ball and looking at All Time Great Yankees. Players that we know did not take steroids to see if this gives a defense to any of the players 'convicted' by Numbers on Steroids. Time to look at my dad's favorite athlete of all time, Mickey Mantle. Averages Say: What's with the mysterious dip at 27 and then the uptick? At Bats Per Home Run Says: That's a mighty jump from 22 to 24 Explaining As If It Was the 90s If you take a look at the numbers there are two time frames which in the 1990s would be questioned. First would be the incredible leap he took from his first year in the big leagues to his first MVP season in 1956. His batting average jumped 50 points. His slugging percentage jumped 90 points and he hit 15 more homers than his previous high. This wouldn't merrit a conviction nowadays though because the young age he...

Guest Post: Thoughts on Sabathia Signing

I asked Grutt what his thoughts were on the Sabathia signing and I thought his response pretty much nailed it. So here it is. I don’t know. Every year I get a little more disenchanted with baseball. Yea, it’s great we signed the top pitching free agent. But we were supposed to. No team was even in the ballpark of the Yankees offer yet they still needed to jump from the already ridiculous price of $140 million to $160 million to close the deal. Now I hear we are going to sign more pitchers who will also get large contracts and the position player gaps are still glaring. Each new, large contract just adds to the feeling that the Yanks are supposed to win it all. “I think we have a good chance this year.” That is a lost feeling. If they don’t win I’ll wonder why, like there has to be some other reason besides that it’s a sport you can never predict how things will work out and some years just aren’t yours to be won. If they win I will be pleasantly smug. It gets a little more...
