Urban Meyer Joins the Whine Brigade

Count Urban Meyer in as the newest person to speak out about the BCS and the almighty being that is the SEC. While his comments weren't nearly as whiny in tone as Tommy Tuberville or Charlie Weis it is easy to read into what he is thinking. Louisville couldn't go through the SEC undefeated. Here's what we do know, the Gators are not undefeated. In fact if Meyer wanted to prove his squad was better than Louisville he could have scheduled a home and home matchup with the Cardinals which I'm sure they would have jumped at. In addition if your schedule is so tall and mighty why exactly are you facing Western Carolina, a 2-7 team in 1AA, ya that's right a team in the minors that gets beat down every weekend by poor competition.

Oh the respect I had for Florida throughout this whole season and I even have them ranked 3 in the Power Rankings and now Urban goes and compares his Utah squad with this years Louisville team. Why oh why did you bring that up Urban? First off that undefeated Utah played in the Mountain West and not the Big East. While the Big East isn't a superpower it is certainly better than Mountain West. Secondly Louisville did defeat Miami and the defending Sugar Bowl Champion who lost minimal talent and with a win tonight would have defeated two undefeated teams late in the season. And mostly it's a completely different scenerio being that there is no other undefeated team that is worthy to head to the title game where in comparison when Utah made its way to the Fiesta Bowl USC, Oklahoma and Auburn were all undefeated.

If Louisville runs the table they should be in the title game. Enough bickering win your games and if its meant to work out it will.

Yeah, but bickering is half the fun, especially when it comes to BCS. I was just on the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl site and figured I'd enter their contest to win tickets, so we'll see what happens. If Rutgers has a chance at winning, then so do I. (BTW Go Rutgers!)

Numbers On Steroids: Bret Boone

Numbers on Steroids is a look at baseball players during the 90s to see if anything screams out at you. Mr. Boone was once the best power hitting second baseman in the league. How questionable was his success? Averages Say: Why the extra plateu in his mid 30s? At Bats Per Home Run Says: Lowest at Bats Per Home Runs at 37? Hmm.... Explaining It Away Yeak, this one is tough. Umm, late bloomer? He showed potential power early in his career and he just liked playing in Seattle a lot more than everywhere else? And umm, his career was kind of like a running backs in that it just all of a sudden fell off the map? Any of these convincing you? The Verdict Guy never hits more than 24 home runs in a season and then in his age 32 season he hits 37? And in SafeCo a pitchers park to boot? And he follows that up with 24, 35, 24 homer years still at SafeCo? And then he completely falls off the map in 2005 never to be heard from again? We've got a Screamer... Man Get Big Muscles In 30s. Hm...
