Monday Quick Notes

~In points you can make to say golf is not a sport see exhibit A. Colt Knost, who played in yesterday's US Amateur final and won. See he's fat, really fat as you can see. I think he's got a keg and a half instead of a six pack. I'm surprised he can actually walk 18 holes. He's the reason why golfers should carry their own bags, I don't think he could handle it.

~Travis Henry needs to get paid. Why because he has 9 different children with 9 different woman in 4 different states and he needed to borrow cash from the Titans to pay off payments he missed last season.

~Lance Briggs totaled his $350,000 Lamborghini on a Chicago Expressway and fled the scene leaving the car abandoned. This screams one of two things either someone stole the car, or Briggs was drunk and didn't want to get a DUI and thus fled the scene. I'd assume the latter.

~Vick Officially plead guilty this morning so we can enjoy his sentencing.... Which takes place in f*ing December. What? December 10th, that's 12+ weeks into the football season, damn. Basically I think it all depends on how many people he rats out on what his sentence may or may not be reduced to.

~How about Boomer Wells hustling out a bunt single last night. That was the best thing I've seen all week. Get the dude an oxygen mask.

~Meanwhile in out of shape pitcher news, Todd Jones ran to 1st base to get Hideki Matsui out and he stated "I'm gonna need some time."

~The Yanks really need better pitching, which is almost assuredly not going to happen today with Mussina taking the hill.

~The Little League World Series this weekend was sweet with three walkoff homers. But the 85 pitch rule is completely lame.

~Ronaldo the Brazilian Superstar soccer player who has been ridiculed over the past few seasons for being overweight, has a medical condition which lead to it. Ha, Brazil was killing a player who had no control over being fat.

The final match of the US Amatuer is 36 holes. They play 18 in the morning, drink a few beers and then play 18 after lunch making it a legitimate sport. Much more grueling than two-a-day football practices or a baseball double header.

Side Note: Tiger Woods '08 hits stores tomorrow.

And the 36 on Sunday is after

18 on Sat
18 on Friday
36 on Thursday
18 on Weds
18 on Tuesday

(95% sure those are all the right amounts)

Of course, a few times they don't play 18 but only 14-17 after they close a match out early.

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...
