The Big 5 College Football Games of the Weekend


This weekend of college football is very very very boring so this post will be very very very short.

5. Stanford Cardinals at Arizona St. Sun Devils
A guess a conference matchup is decent. And despite the fact the Cards should finish in the bottom half of the Pac 10, they currently have one conference win and are the leaders.
The Pick: Sun Devils by 17.

4. Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets at Boston College Eagles
Both teams look like this might be a rebuilding year, yet they sit at 1-0. The 2nd game of the season is a very good time to get that first conference win and build some momentum.
The Pick: GaTech by 3

3. Ole Miss Runnin Rebels at Wake Forest Demon Deacons
The ACC is favored over the SEC in another game. Let's see if they can avoid getting embarrassed.
The Pick: Ole Miss by 1.

2. West Virginia Mountaineers at East Carolina Pirates
The Pirates just came off arguably the biggest victory in their schools history and they get to celebrate by playing another ranked team from the Dual Virginias. Will they rattle off back to back wins? Doubtful.
The Pick: Mountaineers by 6.

1. Miami Hurricanes vs. Florida Gators
This probably won't be a good game cause Miami hasn't been good for years but at least its a sexy game.
The Pick: Florida by 14.

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...
