NFL Week 8 Awards

Wow You Guys Suck: Washington Redskins, We're 4-2 and should be atleast competetive for a few minutes. Nope 52-7 wiped off the face of the planet. They shouldn't have even shown up on sunday. Runners Up: Jets, Dolphins, & Rams all are miserable football teams.

Cough Cough Cough: Brian Griese, The Sex Cannon has to be semi-enjoying this from the bench. Griese sucks just as much as he did and that should be a surprise to no one. People of Chicago start scouting college QBs now. Runners Up: Minnesota can start the QB look as well, Kellen Clemens had a stellar substitution throwing 2 INTs in 3 minutes I can't wait for him to start this weekend.

This Scarecrow Needs a Brain: Jon Gruden How do you lose a home game to a team with it's third string QB who couldn't throw the ball at all until his final throw of the game. You couldn't stuff the run at all knowing their QB sucked? Runners Up: Mike Shanahan calling a QB draw on 3rd and 1 from the 4 down by 3, the Jets pussying out of 4th and 1 from the 45 in the 4th quarter.

The Shocker: Boycotting, The NFL is supposed to be the land of upsets a parity and blah blah blah. Well it certainly wasn't the week. The team with the better record won every single game. Everyone, there were no shocking upsets, there was nothing even surprising. Runners Up: Nada

The Pimp: Brett Favre, On monday I watched the closing minutes of regulation and decided that I wanted to hit the sack instead of watching overtime cause I was beat. Well that apparently saved me about 20 seconds of awake time after Brett Favre threw a perfect strike for a TD. Runners Up: The Entire Patriot and Colt rosters.

You Got JAKKED UP: Laveraneus Coles, Good ole Chad threw a nice out route high extending Coles in the air. He was immediately destroyed and was nice and unconscious for a few minutes. Go Jets.

My Fantasy Anti-MVP: Drew Brees, Another week down, another week of facing the team that puts up the most points in the league. This is getting to be so much fun. Thanks Drew for waking up when you are playing me.

New York Jets MVP: Jonathan Vilma, Why? Because he's on the IR with a knee injury which doesn't exist. Well atleast an injury that he doesn't feel it's appropriate to say what's wrong with it nor which knee is actually injured.

My Picks

My Picks: 11-2
Preseason Picks: 7-6
Picks Vs. Spread: 10-3

Everything good except for the preseason.

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...
