NFL Week 16 Awards

Wow You Guys Suck: NFC Wild Card Contenders, First the Cowboys stumble at home against the Ravens, then the Bucs get thumped at home by the Chargers and finally the Eagles can't get it done against a Redskins team that has been imploding. Nobody wants to make the playoffs. Runners Up: the Jets don't want to make the playoffs either of course, the Lions are 0-15.

This Scarecrow Needs a Brain: Every Jet Player and Coach, 4 games on the West Coast against below .500 teams. 4 games that should be wins. And yet you come home with 4 losses. Someones got to rethink travel schedules because obviously it isn't working. Runners Up: me for actually getting my hopes up, the Cardinals for even making the trip to New England.

Cough Cough Cough: Three Day Old Cheeseburger,The Cheeseburger vastly outgained the Titans but then he decided to turn the ball over 4 times. Whoops. Runners Up: John Casey missed the 50 yarder to clinch home field, all the teams who held destiny in their hands and threw it away (Jets, Bucs, Cowboys, Eagles).

The Shocker: Buffalo Bills, The Bills should have beaten the Jets last week but other than that they've been on a downward spiral, so who expected them to travel cross country and knock off the Broncos when they needed the victory. Runners Up: the Eagles losing the game by a single yard, the Dolphins are 1 win away from the division title.

The Pimp: Derrick Ward, With homefield advantage on the line and Brandon Jacobs still banged up Derrick Ward became the man and rushed for 215 yards on only 15 carries. Runners Up: Matt Cassel is Tom Brady?, Ed Reed is a hero.

You Got Jakked Up: My Spirit, Shattered.

My Fantasy Anti-MVP: Hope is Gone, I'm out of the postseason so it's all meaningless.

New York Jets MVP: Nobody, Screw them 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...
