The Reason Why I Dislike Noah

Besides the fact that he's ugly and could quite possibly be the Celtics consolation prize last year.

Joakim Noah acts all ghetto with his chest bumping and screaming. And then he comes out and says shit on National TV about how most people won't understand it but they're gonna light it up in Gainesville and party and all this BS. I understand you're gonna get trashed and party at school but you are the least ghetto person in practically all of college basketball.

A) You're french, you eat croissant's and caviar, you did not grow up in Compton or a rough neihboorhood period.

B) You're father is a loaded tennis player / pop star in france, aka you grew up with a ton of money.

C) Your mother is a former Miss Sweden.

D) You're grandfather was a professional soccer player in France.

E) You went to a Prep High School in Princeton, New Jersey

I'm a white kid of Irish and Italian descent from lower Connecticut and I am arguably more ghetto than you. Quit the friggin faced. It's annoying and completely fake. I don't think I've ever heard someone act like that big of a clown during a championship interview.

You are not ghetto.

Numbers On Steroids: Mickey Mantle

Numbers on Steroids is a look at baseball players during the 90s to see if anything screams out at you. This week it's throwing a curve ball and looking at All Time Great Yankees. Players that we know did not take steroids to see if this gives a defense to any of the players 'convicted' by Numbers on Steroids. Time to look at my dad's favorite athlete of all time, Mickey Mantle. Averages Say: What's with the mysterious dip at 27 and then the uptick? At Bats Per Home Run Says: That's a mighty jump from 22 to 24 Explaining As If It Was the 90s If you take a look at the numbers there are two time frames which in the 1990s would be questioned. First would be the incredible leap he took from his first year in the big leagues to his first MVP season in 1956. His batting average jumped 50 points. His slugging percentage jumped 90 points and he hit 15 more homers than his previous high. This wouldn't merrit a conviction nowadays though because the young age he...

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...
