November's Waste of Oxygen Award

Another month down in 2007 and there were plenty of scum bags to choose from. Here are your voting options for the month.

Week 1, Scott Boras - A pretty easy candidate selection for this week. The man has no respect for anything. Regardless of who leaked what to the press, he's the one that sent the text messages and the voice mails saying Arod opted out during the final game of the World Series. And then to top it off you give some meaningless excuse to why he opted out and then the next day say you regret doing it during the Series. Shut up.

Week 2, Don Shula - Whine Whine Whine Whine Whine. I think that's all that was coming out of elderly Don's mouth this weekend. He just seems like an old bitter man right now. He bitched and moaned last year when his son got canned at Alabama and now he obviously wants an asterisk whether he comes out and says it or not.

Week 3, Milana Dravnel - So if you were a prostitute, or escort, or just general slutty woman and you dressed up a professional boxer in drag and took photographs of him and eventually published these embarrassing photos online for all to see and ridicule what would then be the next step. Suing for defamation of course because by Oscar saying those photos weren't real he was calling you a liar. Only in America.

Week 4, The New York Knicks - Way to open up your mouth Q and challenge the best team in the NBA as says the current standings. You were right that the 'Big 3' have yet to win any titles, very observant of you. What you forgot is that by making a dumb ass quote like that you would give them that much more motivation to lay the hammer down on you. You're just lucky that Nate Robinson can hit flying buzzer beating half court shots so that you didn't set an all time New York Knick ineptitude record.

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...
