Weekly Waste of Oxygen

After a week hiatus due to me being lazy, the Weekly Waste is back with a vengeance in 2008.

1. West Virginia Fans - He's just one of the many West Virginia fans whom are delusional and moronic. You should be grateful that Rich Rodriguez brought your college back into the National Spotlight. Don Nehlen was a solid coach but Rodriguez one 3 more Big East Titles in 1/3 of the time. Be appreciative of what he's done and the fact that he left the cupboard full.

2. Mr. & Mrs. Whitthoft - There's typically a kid in everybody's elementary school class that wears the same thing every week. He might be from a poor family or he's got a rotation that's as predictable as a typical 5 man staff. But a kid wearing the same jersey everyday for 4 years, well that's just plain old pathetic.

3. Al Groh - If you have a 14 point lead with 3 minutes to go you need a collapse to go into overtime. You need your team to play like garbage, you need to call all the wrong plays on offense and all the wrong plays on defense. In order to lose the game in regulation when having a 2 td lead with only a few minutes remaining you need to be one of the worst coaches of all time. And thus Al Groh was able to accomplish this.

4. Chris Burke - Wanna know how to force your step mother into a divorce. First you need your step father to be the coach of a big time college football team. Second you need to sucker him into having you on the sidelines working some job he made up for you. And finally you need to run out onto the field and get a crucial penalty in a Bowl Game. What a moron.

There Should be an "All of the Above" option for this week.

The WV fans remind me of Mets fans
Chris Burke is a moron
Losing that 14 point lead is just awful.
and those parents need to be beat with a lead pipe, hopefully knocking some sense into them. The kid is already a little goofy lookin' ... there's no reason to allow him to embarrass himself further ...

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...
