Who Wants a Lot Of Baggage?

Even the Cowboys, cultivator of many clubhouse cancers, do not desire Terrell Owens. If the Cowboys don't want him, who the hell will? Let's take our best guess at the top 5 potential suitors.

5. Cincinnati Bengals - The Bungles just signed Laveraneus Coles to a ridiculously overpriced contract, but they should have room for another non-character guy right?

4. Jacksonville Jaguars - Jack del Rio is definitely a hard ass but he really needs a wide receiver. The Jags have drafted a wideout in seemingly every draft and none of them are very good. The running game took a step back in 2008 as well. If TO went to Jacksonville he would be a clear #1 option and could possibly play happy football for a team that would desperately need him.

3. San Diego Chargers - Already a high powered offense, the Chargers could possibly be a suitor for TO. With LT on the downslope, their window is slowly fading and with Chris Chambers doing absolutely nothing last year, they could use a solid wideout to compliment Vincent Jackson and Antonio Gates. Not sure if they want the headache though.

2. Washington Redskins - The Redskins just jettisoned Jason Taylor's dollars, which means they just might have room for T.O. Who likes a flashier free agent signing more than Daniel Snyder?

1. Oakland Raiders - Al Davis doesn't care you went out and mugged a 5 year old girl in a wheel chair, as long as you can play football. What better place for the ultimate clubhouse cancer, the ultimate NFL villain, to finish his career than in a Raiders uniform. And just imagine how pissed off he'll get on a daily basis with JaMarcus Russell throwing missiles to no one in particular. It's a match made in heaven.

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...

This Is Why the New York Mets Can't Win Anymore

It's pretty simple why the Mets can't win games anymore and are morphing into the second worst team in the National League, they can't score runs. The below chart shows exactly whats happenned to their offensive output since each of the major devastating injuries. The blue line shows runs scored for each game through out the season. The pink line shows the average runs the Mets scored when they had everyone, the yellow when they were missing Delgado, the light blue when they were missing Delgado and Reyes, and finally the purple when they were missing Delgado, Reyes and Beltran. In the abscence of Reyes, Delgado and Beltran the Mets are averaging barely over 3 runs per game. In stark contrast, with everyone on the roster the Mets were scoring just over 5 runs per game. That's a wholesale difference and why their roster now equals a lot of losses and a day by day progression further out of a playoff spot.
