And These are the Things I Don't Understand: Soriano: How was he not dealt? He was better than Carlos Lee and Abreu and Carlos Lee brought back Francisco Cordero who will close for the Brewers and Mench a solid outfielder. Soriano could have brought more than that, now they are only going to get a Sandwich draft pick. No Sense. Craig Wilson: The Yankees just dealt for Craig Wilson, he's got some pop but what is the point? What are they going to do with Craig Wilson? Who gets cut now, Bubba or Guiel or both do to this and the Abreu deal. The Yanks should have kept the bench gloves like Philips and Bubba instead of a bench bat like Craig Wilson. Chacon has been a bum this season so no big loss there. They better not demote Andy Philips, that would make no sense, he's a superb fielding first baseman. Basically an unnecessary trade after the Abreu deal yesterday. I don't understand why people are high on him, maybe his flowing golden locks. Greg Maddux: What do you expec

A Little Met Rumor and The Yanks Deal Analysis

Mets Rumor Alright I just heard a rumor on the radio that the Mets are trying to either get Jason Schmidt or Roy Oswalt. The rumored deal would send their hot prospect Lastings Milledge to either of the teams and the Astros in addition would get Brian Bannister, the Mets rookie pitcher that started a few games at the beginning of the season and then has seemingly turned into Carl Pavano with mystery injuries and 5 pitch rehab starts. Now if it is at all possible for the Mets to give up Milledge and Bannister for Oswalt, this should be done in a heart beat. Not even, a heartbeat, faster than that. If I were Omar Minaya, I would throw a huge fiesta if I could land Oswalt. The Mets currently have at minimum an NLCS team. I think they could possibly lose to the Cards in the NLCS but thats the only NL team that should threaten them in the playoffs. However, in the World Series I don't think the Mets current roster has enough pitching. If you actually compare the Mets rotation to the Yan

Give Reggie the $$$

In typical rookie form Reggie Bush is holding out of camp for the dinero. Now a lot of the time I think this is stupid and costly for the player, see Cedric Benson last year and how much PT he got after his hold out, but I lay this blame completely on the Saints. First off they weren't overly active in contract talks until this week, that is three months of sitting idle while you have a stud rookie that you should be frothing at the mouth at to figure out ways to utilize. Instead the Saints basically twiddled their thumbs and have the typical rookie holdout. Mario Williams 6-yr 54 million (26.5 guaranteed) Vince Young 6-yr 58 million (25.9 guaranteed) It's pretty simple he better then both of those guys so combine their strong point of the contract and give him a 58 million dollar contract with 26.5 guaranteed. There you go simple contract and winner for both sides. In other Reggie Bush news, that ESPN mobile commercial he is in is sweet. Where he's sitting on a couch with

Kerry Wood vs. Mark Prior

Inspired by Prior leaving a No-Hitter in the 6th inning I am going to breakdown these two highly paid injury prone "stars" Assortment of Injuries Kerry Wood Tommy John Surgery - In 1999 after winning the Rookie of the Year Wood went threw the big whammy of Tommy John Surgery causing him to miss the entire 1999 season and beginning of the 2000 season. Strained Biceps - In 2004 Wood missed much of the season due to a strained bicep. Now think about a typical throwing motion and then contemplate how one could really put that much strain on their bicep to hurt it. Labrum Injury - In 2005 Wood suffered many shoulder issues, resulting in him being moved to relief and experimented as a closer. After these moves failed miserably he was shortly placed back in the starting rotation before being shut down and having season ending surgery in August on his Labrum. Torn Rotator Cuff - This season after bouncing to and from the DL and complaining of a weak arm a doctor finally noticed that

What a beautiful Wedding

AJ Hawk & Girlfriend Laura Quinn, sister of Notre Dame QB Brady Quinn just in case you forgot got married yesterday in an extravagant ceremony. Well actually they just went to a local lawyer got their legal marriage certificate and that was it. AJ didn't even bother taking off his Under Armour getup. They have a extravagant wedding planned in March, but wanted to be married before they moved in together. Apparently they are old fashioned even though AJ on the football field appears as if he would truck over babies in order to get to the QB. But this remains me of the atrociousness of Laura Quinn at the Fiesta Bowl this January. She wore the split brother and future husband jersey, that made me want to vomit. First of all any split jersey / jersey collaboration is always atrocious but to wear a jersey that is half and half of the opposing teams. Stop riding the fence, either pick a frigging team to root for or just not where any apparel to the game. So when your future husband s

Grade A Sports Guy: Colin Cowherd

What: Colin is a Radio Host on ESPN Radio, the host of " The Herd " Where/When: ESPN Radio typically from 10am - 1pm. I listen to him on ESPN 1050 in NYC where he is on from 10-noon. Why: Colin is pretty much a typical sports guy. Completely strongly opinionated and he doesn't give a crap if he offends anybody. Occasionally you will disagree with him and become annoyed by how strongly he believes he is right but for the most part he is straight on with how I feel and he pretty much says everything that is going on in my head. Basically it's hours of him ranting opinions. Quality stuff. Best Moment: Colin completely went off on UVA Cavaliers and how they are the softest bunch of Zima drinking pansy football program on the planet. He got Charlottesville so riled up that he was the #1 story on their newspapers sports website and the kid reporter went and interviewed him . Both of this clips are hilarious, and highly accurate. UVA always has talent, they typically h

Some Quick Notes

1. The NFL has signed on Prince to do the halftime show of the Superbowl. Please shoot me. And the last song that Prince had that was popular was? Please eliminate the half time show no one, I repeat no one likes it. 2. Last week the Italians finally finalized their gambling scandal. 3 of the 4 teams were relegated to the lower league while one was severely penalized in points next year. Juventus the team most harshly penalized has won 29 titles since the inception of the league so approximately 110 years. So basically they are the Yankees of the Italian league Serie A. Due to their relegation every single player on their roster is free to move to another team. Could you imagine the ruccus if every Yankee from Jeter to ARod was a free agent? That would be completely ludicrous, I bet it's fun to be a beat reporter of Juventus right now. And terrible to be a fan. 3. I hate Sidney Ponson, he is terrible has always been terrible. Anyone that was hopeful when the Yanks picked

Open Championship Recap

Tigger Woo The guy is amazing. He spent the whole weekend cool and calm, missed only a few fairways, missed only a few greens and the only time he seemed even a little bit flustered was when people kept using their phone cameras and flashing pictures when he was about to go on a his back swing. Some people call him robotic, and you know what I think thats a good thing, I call it focus. A lot of us do not have the focus and the ability to play one shot at a time and that's why he's so great at golf. There is a similarity that can be drawn from Golf and Poker and that is the term Tilt. Like Poker when a player takes a bad beat and gets flustered and in turn ruins their game, golf has a similar feel when you mess up a hole or a shot that you really think you should have made you can get off balanced and kill your remaining game. This visibly happened to Sergio, who after the missed putt on the second hole no longer had any confidence with his putting and it ran him out of contenti

Hey Guys You Know I'm White Right?

In a world filled with unintentional humor the Baltimore Orioles are leading the charge this week. The Orioles were having a baseball promotional classic , the bobblehead doll. Sorry Darius Miles, you still do not have one. Well these bobblehead dolls were going to depict 2B Brian Roberts and 3B Melvin Mora in some sort of handshake they partake in after every victory. Maybe it's actually the Orioles fault for not winning enough games so the manufacturer couldn't accurately portray this scene. Well the manufactures initially made a prototype which the Orioles looked at and told the manufactures that Brian in fact has a tan and that he is not a pale white Polish kid. Well, then the manufactures went in the complete opposite extreme turning Brian into a black man. Luckily for the O's the saw the doll and realized that this one looked absolutely nothing like Roberts and have pulled the plug before the give away on Saturday. Poor Brian Roberts, labeled only a third-tier collect

Mama said Knock You Out

So what do you do when you are drafted into the NBA, you flame out in a matter of months but you still have a nice guaranteed 3 year deal. Well you sit and relax obviously. What do you do once that three year deal expires? Take up Boxing? Huh, Boxing? Um Ok. Troy Bell a boxer really ? I mean he showed tons of quickness and was a star for BC for four years but boxing? Really? Wouln't you think more Craig Smith if you were looking for a fighter to come from the BC Basketball team, I mean thats who I would not want to meet in a dark alley. Well we'll see on July 23rd whether Troy is a better boxer than he was an NBA Player.

The Open Championship Preview

4 People to Watch to Contend Obvious - Tigger Woo - Well pretty much every tournament Tigger Woo is a contender, although I'm pretty sure this course is not on his video game so he will have to substantially work on his familiarty with the layout while Saint Andrews is definately in the game, as shown by his performance last year, countless people helped Tiger Woods practice by fiddling with their joysticks. Doble Down? - Geoff Ogilvy - I expect the US Open Champ to be right there at the British, I don't think he will win but I am expecting a top 15 finish. Go Irieman - Padraig Harrington - He just might be the best player on the tour not to have a major or really ever seriously contend this week he'll be up there in the standings, or maybe his cousin will make another World Series of Poker final table, one of the two will happen. Kickin off the Rust - Lee Westwood - Sure he has played terrible this year and hasn't made a cut since before the Masters, but good ole L

Lloyd Carr is a D-Bag

I'm a huge Michigan Wolverine fan, no I didn't go there and I've never even been in the state of Michigan but I've been a fan since I was 9 when the fab five was cool and I have never dropped Michigan since as my favorite college hoop and football squad. Chris Webber to this day has been my favorite hoopster and I even have a Brian Griese #12 Wolverine Jersey, unfortunately whoever got it for me as a present didn't get me the sweet ass #2 Woodson jersey. However, since 1997 Michigan has vastly underachieved with the talent he has recruited. A trip to the Alamo bowl last year? While other universities have had high hopes and often time similar disappointments and equally no National titles, Lloyd seemingly every season has a major gaff in the opening weeks, and if you haven't noticed in College football one loss there's a good chance you should just pack up the season. Lloyd almost single handedly let Tyrone Willingham keep his job as he was unable to beat No

The Melkman

As a Yankee fan I was obviously demoralized when both Sheffield and Matsui got injured only days apart and watching the performance of the Melky Cabrera, I turn line drives into inside the park homers, of the 2005 season I was hardly looking forward to the remainder of the season. And while Melky has yet to show power numbers and certainly not the hitter of the caliber of Sheffield or Matsui, I will not be disappointed in the slightest if one of the two are unable to come back for the stretch run (Preferably Matsui, I have Sheffield on my fantasy team and would like to get atleast one month of production out of him). One thing that has become increasingly evident, yet the Yankees ignored this in the past, is that a baseball team is not solely built around a superstar laden lineup. Looking at the Yankee's championship team of the 90's you will see players like Chad Curtis, Scott Brosius, Shane Spencer, etc. In the starting lineup. None of these guys ever were perennial all-stars

Diary of a Tortured Fantasy Owner

I am in a head-to-head points league with some of my buddies from school and each week you set your lineup meaning each week I have to look at my team and decide which pitchers to pitch. Now usually its a relatively easy decision, I go with the 4 closers I have and the pitchers that are scheduled to make 2 starts during the week. However, since it was a shortened week and the closers had less of a chance to get saves while every starter was scheduled to pitch there was more upside in going with the starters. So as the roster moves needed to be created I looked at the sunday starters and had to choose between Brad Penny and Dave Bush. While this might seem like an easy selection considering Penny started the all-star game and Dave Bush is mid-rotation starter for the Brewers to me it wasn't the easiest of decisions. While I like Penny, obviously I drafted him, I think he is a bit overrated and he was facing the Cardinals while Bush who has been underrated and would have more wi

Sign of the Apocalypse

The Yankee signing Sidney Ponson is ranks right up there with their 4 game collapse in 2004 as the worst moments I have ever had as a Yankee fan. Pontoon has had one good season his whole career and that was complete bi-product of the fact that he got about 8 runs of supports every game he won. Then he somehow thieved a big contract off the Oreos. In addition he was knighted in Aruba, maybe they were trying to protect themselves from beached whales, I'm sure with Pontoon on the beach whales would scurry away. This rivals the Vin Baker contract as worst contract of all time. Lucky for the Oreo's Pontoon had a binge drinking problem and they were able to perge the contract. Then he goes to the Cards sucks it up and they cut him for Jeff Weaver, who has an ERA above 6. But the Yanks signed him and are starting him right away, this is great. The only thing Pontoon has going for him in the AL is that his fat bucket of fried chicken eating ass doesn't have to hit anymore so Ponto

My Midseason Awards

AL Comeback Player 1. Jim Thome Biggest one horse race of all time, if Thome doesn't win comeback player of the year than I'll be completely shocked. Rookie of the Year 1. Francisco Liriano 2. Jonathan Papelbon 3. Justin Verlander 4. Joel Zumaya 5. Ian Kinsler Poor Justin Verlander, the kid has a miniscule ERA in the low threes and almost any other year he would be the frontrunner for the Rookie of the Year but right now he's not even a contender. The battle between Paps and Liriano is neck and neck and will be a very intriguing watch down the stretch. Cy Young 1. Francisco Liriano 2. Roy Halladay 3. Jonathan Papelbon 4. Johan Santana 5. Mike Mussina There have been plenty of fantastic performances by pitchers in the first half but no one has better more phenomenal than Liriano. Since moving into the starting rotation Liriano has made a total of ten starts, 10. In those games he has pitched 61 innings and given up a total of 10 runs. That's an ERA of 1.48 for a starter.

My Opinion of the Home Run Derby & All Star Game Prediction

For all of you that want the Homerun derby to go away, well guess what it isn't going anywhere. Just like the 3 point and dunk contest in the NBA the leagues have a weekend where they have a day to showcase some players, where nothing else is going on where they can make more money. So get ready to watch the homerun derby for the next century. Anyway as to what I think of the Home Run derby, I enjoy it, especially when it is at one of the newer ballparks. I mean how often do you really watch a Pittsburgh Pirate game, even when they are playing your favorite team. That stadium is beautiful and it was showcased wonderfully by Ryan Howard and David Ortiz blasting bombs into the Alleghany. Now would I call it must see TV, no certainly not. Was I fully glued to the televesion, nope. Did I watch the complete first round, na I was at the gym. But when I was watching the tube last night I threw on the derby and watched Howard try to hit Krukie in the back of the head. What else was on TV l

World Cup Finals Review

Zidane This match will forever be remembered for one single action and less for the winning team. Much like the Chris Webber timeout of yesteryear, so will Zidane's thoughtless moment overshadow a well played game. Obviously Zidane was frustrated, he had a perfect opportunity to put France ahead for good but was denied by a wonderful save by Buffon. In addition France had been outplaying Italy since the start of the second half and truly deserved the go ahead goal but could not find it. But after an ordinary man to man defense by Materazzi and what seemed to be some typical trash talk Zidane did the unthinkable. I don't care what Materazzi said, I don't care if he dropped something about his mother or his sister or his wife or any other family member you can not get ejected from the game there. You are the captain of the team in the most important game you could possibly participate in as a soccer player. And in addition you are minutes away from a penalty shootout which yo

My Ideal 25

In an ideal world, this would be the 25 man roster that I would put together today. I would want a blend of speed and power. A blend of youth and experience. Position Players Catcher Joe Mauer - Sometimes when you look at players in baseball you end up looking at only their offensive numbers. If you look at only offensive numbers for a catcher the past few years the simple decision is Victor Martinez, but if you've watched any of the Yankee vs. Indians series you've noticed that Vick couldn't throw out a beached whale trying to steal second base. Mauer presents a blend of solid hitting and solid defense. First Baseman Albert Pujols - If you pick anyone other than Pujols, than I would like to know your reasoning because he is the perfect hitter. The man does not strike out, he hits for average he hits for power, he gets big hits in the clutch. He has had one of the most historic starts to his career. I would just invest in a masseuce so he could avoid that odd oblique strain

You Go Greg Anderson

For those of you that haven't watched Sportscenter in over a day Greg Anderson when asked to testify against Bonds in Barry's perjury case has decided to go to jail instead of testifying . Here are some possibilities for Greg's loyalty to Bonds. 1) Barry told Greg that he was going to give him a signed picture and that he would be one of the lucky few to get one for free. Little did Greg know Barry had his fingers crossed behind his back. 2) Barry promised to get dressed up in his Paula Abdul getup and provide Greg with... singing lessons and perhaps a little tuning. 3) Barry said Greg would get a weeks pass to swim in Bonds' money pool ala Scrooge McDuck. 4) A Year Long Supply of B12 shots from Miguel Tejada's vendor. 5) Barry really never knowingly took steroids, Greg just wants to prove this by not telling the Grand Jury. 6) Barry told Greg that he could have a recurring role on Bonds on Bonds. 7) The Food is free in jail, didn't you know that, Greg does. 8)

My WorldCup Picks Review

First Round Group A: 2 for 2, I had Germany and Ecuador advancing in that correct order. Group B: 2 for 2, England and Sweden in that order another 2 for. Group C: 2 for 2, Argentina and Netherlands, off to a Super start in the first 3 groups. Group D: 2 for2, I had Mexico and Portugal just in the wrong order. Group E: 1 for 2, The homer US pick failed but the Heritage Italy pick worked. Group F: 1 for 2, Getting Brazil was tough, Japan let me down in game 1 collapse. Group G: 1 for 2, I got France, no South Korea and had France in the #1 spot, my worst group Group H: 1 for 2, Got Spain which was easy, and say no to my shocker Saudi squad. Total: 12 for 16, I'd say that was pretty good, just got burnt by the Asians and US. Second Round It's a lot harder to predict the second round in these group stage tournies because you can't necessarily predict what the matchups are going to be. But I had the first two matchups right. My Quarterfinalists were: Germany, England, Argentina

Bashing Manny Ramirez

I'm sick of people skipping the All-Star game, if you want to look at why there's less buzz about the All-Star game year after year, don't look at Interleague play. Do not say that with Interleague play now we these players play against each other all the time. It's not because of the tie ball game from a few years ago. It's not even the fact that the Mark Redman's of the world make the all star roster over Francisco Liriano because of the every roster must be represented rule. The reason the All Star game is on the decline is because of players like Manny Ramirez. Manny has been voted by the fans to represent the American League as the starting left fielder. He puts up the numbers year after year, and after a slow start Manny now phenomenal numbers .312 23 and 63 Rbis. It's obvious that most Major League fans hold him in high regard and that Red Sox fans throughout the northeast stuff the ballots to get him into the game. But for another year there are rumo

NBA Draft Rankings The Cream of the Crop (10-1)

10. Philadelphia 76ers - The 76ers went out and drafted two quality players who can definitely help out an NBA franchise with Bobby Jones and Rodney Carney. Bobby Jones will be able to alleviate some of the defensive pressures which could be placed on AI (if he is still on the roster that is). I question whether Carney is too similar to Iguodala and may clash styles in addition to their glaring need of a point guard which is why they are not slotted hire on the rankings. 9. LA Lakers - I'm a fan of Jordan Farmar, he's the reason UCLA made it to the final game of the tourny and he's a pure point. I like him more than I like Rondo and would have been placed if the Celtics picked him up. Overall I believe it was the best you could possibly do with the 26th pick. 8. Utah Jazz - Sometimes I think GMs and these guys that do Mock Drafts over analyze things. Even if Dee Brown is more 5-11 than the 6-0 ft he is listed at lets compare him to Rajon Rondo. Dee Brown is as fast if no

NBA Draft Rankings the Mid Tier (20 -11)

20. Milwaukee Bucks - Not having a first round pick is a killer. Not having a first round pick because you traded it away to get Jamaal Magloire who you barely utilized, well thats certainly worse. So in the end the Bucks ended up with David Noel a nice college player but I expect him to barely make the roster and some guy from Croatia. That's not going to help much. 19 . Washington Wizards - I think they were trying to counter balance their roster by bringing in two members of the Soviet Union. Chad Ford described one of the kids as a Keith Van Horn type, so that means he's a soft 6-11 player with a mediocre jump shot, and will probably be traded about 100 times during his career. When I can't even pronounce the name of all the players you drafted you don't rank high. 18. Indiana Pacers - The Pacers as a team are going downhill. From a team that showed so much promise until the brawl at the Palace, they are now in a downward spiral. Not only did they trade away Ronn
