Coaches Have the Darndest Looks

So I was perusing the banks of College Photos from last night and honestly the most entertaining photos are all from coaches. Within one night of college basketball you can find pictures of coaches displaying almost every emotion.

Bruce Pearl is Annoyed by a 20 Point Victory.

John Calipari Really Wants a High Five

Jimmy Collins Just Wants a Hug

Ed DeChellis is Pointing Out the Hottest Girl in the Stands

Jim Boylen is Contemplating Murder

Bo Ryan is Contemplating Punching the Ref in the Face

Seth Greenberg Just Wants to Know Where the Restrooms Are

Roy Williams is Giddy Like a School Girl

Stan Heath is Bored

Dave Dickerson is Pleading for Just 1 More Cookie

Brad Stevens is Befuddled

Gary Williams is Victorious

Coach K is Defeated

Kelvin Sampson is Suspended in Disbelief

So Indiana didn't play last night. Whatever.

I live in Memphis and this weekend's Memphis-Tennessee game is the hottest sports ticket in the history of this town.

I personally liked Ed DeChellis checking out the chicks.

Nice post.

P.S. Got a link to you at my site. Have you checked out Stephen A.'s blog? Sheesh!

If you're talking about ever, I tipped off TBL and a AA and a few others to the fact he has a blog. So I was on the forefront of that.

If you mean recently, then no. I really don't care what he has to say on his blog given he's already on ESPN/ESPNradio for countless hours. I doubt he says anything that different in the sports world. And I certainly could care less about his or just about anybody else's views on politics.

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...
