Numbers on Steroids: Ken Caminiti

Numbers on Steroids is a look at baseball players during the 90s to see if anything screams out at you.

Mr. Caminiti won an MVP award. That's pretty much a joke. Let's look at when he all of a sudden became the roided superman.

Averages Say: Mediocre in his 20s but Superb in His 30s?

At Bats Per Home Run Says: And at 31 He Became a Power Hitter

Explaining It Away

Umm... Umm.. Umm... He was a late bloomer? Seriously I've got nothing. How many players in the history of baseball became twice the player in their 30s that they were in their 20s? His best 7 seasons came in his 30s. Not one of his best 7 seasons came in his 20s. That's ridiculous.

The Verdict

Well he admitted steroid use so that makes it factual, but the evidence is quite strong even without the admition. Ken Caminiti should be the poster-boy for what steroid use can do. He grew from a good baseball player to an MVP in his 30s. He screwed up his body and his mind and died at the age of 41.

Words Can Not Describe How Blatantly Obvious This Is

Lou Holtz is the Homer / Annoyingly Delusional

As my buddy Joe and I always joke, if Notre Dame was suiting up against an all Jesus team, aka a team made up of 55 Sons of God, Lou Holtz would probably still pick Notre Dame to win by a touchdown. So of course this weekend when I'm watching Sportscenter and they have him and fellow old man Corso making predictions, Lou picks ND to beat Michigan. Not that big of a deal, Michigan is a big question mark this year, but of course than Lou says that Notre Dame will win 11 games this year. This is the same Notre Dame that lost to a service academy last year. And just when you thought the douchy homerism was going to end ESPN asks which BCS school is going to be the biggest surprise team in the country. Any guesses to whom it was? I'll give you a clue it was another team he coached. If you guessed South Carolina you would be a winner. Next up on Lou's prediction watch, the Jets win the Superbowl, NC St. wins the ACC, Arkansas dominates the SEC West, Minnesota wins the Big

Ranking the New York Jets Historical Helmets

There's no way you can't go with the Helmet they won the Super Bowl in. You just can't. Next, I really don't understand why they don't where the helmet with the Jet as their throwback uniforms. That helmet is awesome. Then I'm going with the Helmets from the 80s because it's the classic feel and the white face mask is 10 times better than the black one. And the rankings continue until you get to... The Titans Helmet. I hate everything about those Titan uniforms. The Helmets are boring and the colors are GOD awful. Navy blue and Mustard? What the hell is that. Disgusting. If they wore those unis when I was a kid I'd probably be a Giant fan, and be much happier with my life in football.
