NFL Week 2 Awards

Wow You Guys Suck: St. Louis Rams, Sorry to pick on the Rams but in two weeks their offense has put up a total of 7 points. They now sit 0-2 and really are showing limited signs of hope for this season. Runners Up: the Bucs defense likes giving up long touchdowns, the Browns are turrible.

This Scarecrow Needs a Brain: Norv Turner, When you call a run on 4th and 3 against the Baltimore Ravens it would probably be advisable to design a play in which somebody, anybody, puts a body on Ray Lewis. Instead, nobody puts a finger on Lewis and your running back is blown up 3 yards in the backfield and goodnight game, hello 1-1. Runners Up: Tony Romo did a nice job of throwing the ball to the wrong colored uniform, the Fins for getting burnt for long play after long play.

Cough Cough Cough: Kansas City Chiefs, This is a choke fest for a multitude of reasons. First off when you out gain your opponent by nearly 250 yards there really is no reason that you should lose the football game. Secondly, when you score a touchdown with 2:30 to go and you're defending a QB that has thrown for 42 yards thus far in the game, you really shouldn't have much of an issue stopping them. And yet the Chiefs did. Runners Up: The Fins controlling the ball for 45 minutes and still losing, Jeff Reed's inability to make a big kick.

The Shocker: The Bungles, After last weeks shocking loss against the Broncos, one might have thought the Bengals would just topple over at the hands of the Packers in Green Bay. Alas, the offense that couldn't get much done against the Broncos thrashed the Pack for 31 points. Runners Up: The Jets hadn't beaten the Pats in 8 years until sunday, the 49ers are 2-0.

The Pimp: Chris Johnson, His team somehow still lost despite the fact that he averaged basically 20 yards every time he touched the football and had 3 tds over 50 yards. He was the fantasy stud of the week. Runners Up: Frank Gore had 207 yards before he got injured, the Texans offense.

You Got JAKKED UP: This Little Yellow Jacket Go Boom,


My Fantasy Anti-MVP: The Texans, This is fantasy football. One week a team does nothing, the next its QB and wideout combine for 6 touchdowns and 60+ fantasy points.

New York Jets MVP: Dirty Sanchez,

My Picks

My Picks: 7-9
Preseason Picks: 8-8
Picks Vs. Spread: 6-14

Holy shit batman, that was turrible.

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...
