My Jets Wishlist: Taylor Mays

Taylor Mays is staying at USC. Why? I guess he doesn't like money? Or maybe he just gets rotational BJs from the cheerleading squad? One way or another it looks like he has as much chance of being a Jet in 2009 as does Lebron wearing Green and White.

It's the offseason so it's time to focus on players I want, that will once again give me the hope that will at some point eventually be shattered.

Abram Elam stepped into the starting Safety position this year, and while he made some big plays he certainly isn't an intimidating force. The Jets really need someone in the secondary that can lay on some huge hits and that's where Taylor Mays could potentially come in. Take a look at some of this wonderous hit.



In addition Mays is 6-3 230 pounds of pure muscle with a sub 4.40 40 time and was the 3 time 100 yard dash winner in Washington.

Taylor Mays would look pretty in Green.


Put Taylor on the 2010 Wish List.

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...
