Chump O' da Day: Gary Sheffield

Ah, Gary and his wonderful mouth. The Yankees are apparently picking up his option with the idea of trading him, for who knows what. However, the great man that Gary is he's starting to go off and say his typical things that make no sense. Last year he reported that the Yankees were picking up his option, which was immediately followed by Brian Cashman coming out and saying that he said no such thing, and Gary whining like a little baby.

Well now that the Yankees have picked up his option he is back at his normal whining, apparently saying that he does not want to play one year in the Bronx and that he does not want to play first. And if he gets traded he's not going to be happy.

Shut Up Gary. You negotiated your contract, you put on the option year. Just because you are in the last year of a contract does not mean the team has to give you an extension. That's not how it works you signed a contract for so many years and you have to abide by it. Not only are you bitching over nothing, but you are decreasing your trade value with each breath and at the same time increasing the likelihood that the Yanks want to get rid of you.

Here we go Gary, you've made millions upon millions of dollars. You're coming off a season where you only played 2 months. You just got a 13 million dollar option picked up. And you're going to be 38 at the start of the 07 season. Did you ever remotely think that maybe just maybe you don't deserve an extension. Probably not because you are in fact Gary Sheffield.

Gary Sheffield is a whiny piece of shit and all the frontrunner bullshit Yankee fans deserve his pathetic act.

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...
