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 Pontoon can save himself from the obvious convulsions he goes through while attempting to roll himself to first base after the rare occasion he makes contact.

I actually want the Yankees to get hammered on Tuesday night so that I wont have to see that fat man on the mound for more than one game. And then the Yanks can go out and get Lima time when the Mets cut him so I can once again throw up in my mouth on my commute home when I hear the 20/20 sports update.

Watching the Yankees this year has been entertaining for all the wrong reasons. The Mets, however, are totally awesome.

Lou Holtz is the Homer / Annoyingly Delusional

As my buddy Joe and I always joke, if Notre Dame was suiting up against an all Jesus team, aka a team made up of 55 Sons of God, Lou Holtz would probably still pick Notre Dame to win by a touchdown. So of course this weekend when I'm watching Sportscenter and they have him and fellow old man Corso making predictions, Lou picks ND to beat Michigan. Not that big of a deal, Michigan is a big question mark this year, but of course than Lou says that Notre Dame will win 11 games this year. This is the same Notre Dame that lost to a service academy last year. And just when you thought the douchy homerism was going to end ESPN asks which BCS school is going to be the biggest surprise team in the country. Any guesses to whom it was? I'll give you a clue it was another team he coached. If you guessed South Carolina you would be a winner. Next up on Lou's prediction watch, the Jets win the Superbowl, NC St. wins the ACC, Arkansas dominates the SEC West, Minnesota wins the Big...

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...
