Quick Notes

~King Felix > Dice-K, atleast for today. I think people last year while they were jumping off the King Felix bandwagon forgot the fact that he was only 20 and that most kids while their 20 are sitting on their ass eating doritos watching a baseball game. Right now after two weeks Felix looks like the best pitcher on the planet, will that keep up this season? Who knows? Should this kid win a Cy Young barring injury, absolutely. As for Dice-K, I wouldn't be upset if I was a Red Sox fan, I mean he only gave up 3 runs, not like he got shelled or anything. And he didn't give up any bombs or anything. He's gonna win 16-18 games.

~Mussina going down with a Hamstring injury certainly isn't good for the Yankees. I wonder how many times Karstens or Rasner will need to get bombed before Hughes is called up. Something to watch.

~Imus getting canned by MSNBC is pretty much nonsense. Oh well, I guess the sponsors were too afraid to have any negative reflection on themselves and them pulling out pretty much guaranteed msnbc bailing ship.

~Celtics only need to lose to the Bucks and they ice the 2nd worst record in the NBA, thanks for the benching of Pierce and Big Al, solid move Danny.

~Speaking of the C's, on ESPN.com there's an article written about how the C's would contemplate jettisoning Jefferson if they got Oden and that he thinks they don't need a big man that he's their big man of the future. A) You are the C's big man of the future, but a combination of you and Oden would be unstoppable. B) If the Celtics got Oden and traded Jefferson I will write hate mail to Danny. A lot of Hate mail.

~The Hockey playoffs started, woo. I used to love the hockey playoffs, I used to watch it far more than the NBA playoffs. Now? Well I don't even get the station they are on, so. Ya, I won't be watching much more than a little bit of the Rangers games cause I actually get those. On the topic of stupid, the Rangers, Islanders and Devils are all playing at the same time. Smart move NHL, very smart.

~Amaker landed at Harvard, quite funny.

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...
