Really a Fade Route?

4th and 1 from the 4 yard line and you go Split Back Shotgun and throw a fade route? A Fucking fade route are you serious? Do you not have any balls? Do you have absolutely no confidence in your offensive line whatsoever? Thomas Jones had 130 rushing yards you know? 130. One Three Zero. I'll repeat, One Three Zero. That's a good chunk of change and on first down he rushed for 9 yards. But why would we want to rush the ball up the middle when we can run a low percentage fade route perhaps because we're fucking idiots and we don't want to win. Instead we'd rather for yet another god damn game this season have a possession in the final moments of the 4th quarter where a Touchdown ties or wins the game and another possession with no results. 1 God Damn yard? Additionally why the hell did you run a QB sneak on 3rd down. Chad Pennington is not athletic.

Rinse, Wash, Repeat. Every week same god damn story. Choke in the clutch. Given an opportunity only to shit it away. 6 games down this season, 5 losses and soon to be 5 games behind the Uber Patriots. Might as well say it. Just End The Season.

Lou Holtz is the Homer / Annoyingly Delusional

As my buddy Joe and I always joke, if Notre Dame was suiting up against an all Jesus team, aka a team made up of 55 Sons of God, Lou Holtz would probably still pick Notre Dame to win by a touchdown. So of course this weekend when I'm watching Sportscenter and they have him and fellow old man Corso making predictions, Lou picks ND to beat Michigan. Not that big of a deal, Michigan is a big question mark this year, but of course than Lou says that Notre Dame will win 11 games this year. This is the same Notre Dame that lost to a service academy last year. And just when you thought the douchy homerism was going to end ESPN asks which BCS school is going to be the biggest surprise team in the country. Any guesses to whom it was? I'll give you a clue it was another team he coached. If you guessed South Carolina you would be a winner. Next up on Lou's prediction watch, the Jets win the Superbowl, NC St. wins the ACC, Arkansas dominates the SEC West, Minnesota wins the Big...

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...
