Quick Notes

~The Celtics succesfully tanked last night by sitting out Al Jeff, Paul Pierce and of course Scalabrine. The loss was a big step in the right direction for the Celtics.

~For all those people that make the point that rewarded the teams that finish in last is bad because teams tanking and sitting out their best players hurts season ticket holders spent good money, I disagree. At this point in time what does every Celtic fan want, Oden or Durant. Any logical Celtic fan realizes tanking is the way to go, for Season ticket holders they know that nothing good is coming out of a Celtic game from now until the end, so it doesn't matter. But imagine what the value of each ticket would be if they got Oden or Durant next year. Through the roof.

~Hollinger named Big Al the most improved player this season and I think he's got a very good chance of winning the award. Since the break his numbers are practically identical if not better than Elton Brand. Woo. An Oden Big Al tandem wins a title I guarantee it.

~Surprise Billy Donovan is staying at Florida, now Kentucky is going after Rick Barnes who's a horrible in game coach. For their sake I hope they get him, so he can suck and get booed out of the arena worse than Tubby. Kentucky get a good coach not just a big name. Give Jay Wright a call please. He would be perfect.

~So I had one last draft with my buddies last night for fun, a free league, no money. I couldn't make the draft cause it got pushed back a day. So I set my prerankings. What does the friggin draft do? Picks up Big Tex, Derek Lee and Konerko with 3 of my top 5 picks, with only a 1B and Util spot available. Then it picked up Rolen when Arod was my first pick. How friggin stupid is this autopick thing. Annoying.

~Was gonna pick Justin Rose as my sleeper pick yesterday, but went with Howell instead, if I didn't I'd currently have the top 2 on the leaderboard in my 4 contenders list.

~JJ was in sole possesion of the lead for about 15 minutes, pretty cool.

~Phil making the turn at +4 not so good Mickletits.

~Saw Blades of Glory last night, pretty funny but not as good as The Ballad of Ricky Bobby.

~I'm so glad I'm at work so I can;t watch Dice-K or the Masters, lame.

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...
