Weekly Waste of Oxygen

A lot of baseball related losers this week and one person who thinks concussions are funny.


1. Travis Johnson - What's the best thing to do after you knock someone out and give them most likely a career ending concussion? Of course jump over them and taunt them so that while they are not moving a muscle they know that they f*cked with the wrong defensive tackle. Or maybe Travis was just trying to convince Trent he was Batman for humors sake.


2. Duane Somers & Edward McConaughey - There's contradicting stories out there that says this may not be accurate, but lets play a long and say it is. How about them Yankee fans beating the crap out of a Red Sox fan for the sole reason that he is a part of the Nation. I hate you all and I'm not going to stoop to punching you all in the face. Too much effort.


3. Chien Ming Wang - Not like it's important or anything, two starts in a 5 game series. Not like getting hammered in both of them is going to negatively effect your team, or being so bad you can't even make it out of the 1st inning. Way to be the ace of the staff you assbag.


4. Dave Wannstedt - Apparently Dave has been so impressed with Norv Turner's shitty job this year that he is attempting to go above and beyond the call of duty and show everyone on the planet that he is in fact the worst coach in football. Down 3 in overtime against Navy at the two yard line after running the ball effectively he calls a pass planet. Failed. So he kicks a field goal right? Nope he goes for it, and well they don't get it.

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...
