NFL Week 13 Awards

Wow You Guys Suck: Detroit Lions, 6-2. That's what you were a month ago. Now you sit 6-6 and tied for the last playoff spot with a much harder remaining schedule than either the Vikings or Cards. Additionally Roy Williams is out for 4 weeks. Essentially, they went from a shoe-in to out for good. Runners Up: the Pussified Officiating Crew Last night, the Dolphins which comes as no surprise.

This Scarecrow Needs a Brain: Joe Gibbs, It's been a very very long week for Joe Gibbs and his Washington Redskins but there is no excuse for being around the league for longer than I've been alive and not knowing that you can't call back to back timeouts. That killed your team, and you admitted it afterward. Runners Up: Sean Payton calling the fumbled reverse, .

Cough Cough Cough: AJ Feeley, Now there's the AJ Feeley we all know. Multiple interceptions including the nail in the coffin when the Eagles were driving into the red zone in the final minutes with a chance to win the game. Runners Up: The Bears made the Eli look clutch, David Garrard throws his first interception in the 4th quarter in the red zone.

The Shocker: Oakland Raiders, Maybe I'm just reluctant to admit that the Broncos are completely overrated, but I did not see the Raiders beating the them this weekend. And in reality the Raiders really beat them twice this season and it would have counted on the standings as so if not for that last second timeout that wiped out Janikowski's first fg attempt in game 1. Runners Up: Minnesota's complete dominance, Baltimore being competitive.

The Pimp: Tony Romo, Every week I wait for Tony Romo to show some sign of why he went undrafted and with the exception of the Buffalo game there hasn't been one. He came out hitting everybody against the Packers and has the Cowboys playing like the obvious 2nd best team in the NFL. Runners Up: Purple Jesus is back and he doesn't need 20+ carries to dominate, LDT was finally given the ball a lot by Norv the dumb ass.

You Got JAKKED UP: Donte Stallworth, was knocked out by epilepsy.

My Fantasy Anti-MVP: Jay Cutler, I had a slim chance to make the playoffs in my 2nd league and it was quickly brought down by Jay Cutler on Sunday afternoon when he put up another shitty performance. Twas a very very bad draft pick and another one of those times where I shouldn't have brought out the well I drafted the other guy in the other league so let's change it up a bit. Else I would have Big Ben in both leagues and probably be in the playoffs.

New York Jets MVP: Miami, Really Miami just sucks so bad on offense that they made the Jets defense look dominate. The Dolphins are a joke.

My Picks

My Picks: 9-7
Preseason Picks: 9-7
Picks Vs. Spread: 8-8

Mediocre, that is all.

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...
