Bill the Spy

An investigation is under way as to some suspicious camera work and odd radio frequency occurrences during the Pats Jets showdown at the Meadowlands yesterday. The claim states that the Patriots may have used a camera man to steal the Jets defensive signals and broadcast them to their coaching staff. And that apparently the same camera man was taken out of Lambeau during a previous Pat game.

My response to this is... Who the hell cares? Would it surprise me if Bastard Bill tried to cheat? No. Did it matter at all during the game? No. Sure if they had their called plays it would help the Patriots offense, but would it necessarily make sure that no Jet ever penetrated the line of scrimmage or Randy Moss could outrun three different Jets for a touchdown reception? I don't think so. Regardless of whatever happens with this video, my guess is nothing, the Pats smoked the Jets yesterday and there was nothing that the Jets defense could do to stop the Patriots.

In fact I bet if the Jets knew exactly what play the Patriots were running they wouldn't have been able to stop them. It would have been like in Tecmo bowl when you guess the right play and everyone on your roster penetrates the line of scrimmage and somehow someway your opponent gets off and completes a pass through your diving cornerbacks hands. That's what it would have been like if the Jets knew the Patriots plays.

Its interesting. I'm willing to bet every team tries the same thing. I don't think its a big deal, but if he's guilty then the Pats should man up and deal with the punishment.

The fact is is that the Patriots are going to steam roll 95 percent of their opponents this year anyway.

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...
