Ultimate UFL 2009 Season Prediction

And by ultimate I mean, shortest ever. I have no idea who is on these teams. I basically know that they have some washed up former NFL coaches (Dennis Green, Jim Fassel, Ted Cottrell & Jim Haslett) and that they have some mediocre former backup NFL QBS (Losman, Quinn Gray, & Brooks Bollinger). I also know it starts tonight on vs. so here's the best UFL preview out there, or the worst, or the only one.

4th, California Redwood: They're coming in last because they are wearing uniforms similar to the Seattle Seahawks highlighter green from two weeks ago and their QB is Shane Boyd. I don't know who he is, so Dennis Green you're out.

3rd, Florida Tuskers: Brooks Bollinger is a very very very bad quarterback. And look at the teams in Florida in the NFL right now, they are a combined 3-9, football in Florida is only looking up in Gainesville.

2nd, New York Sentinels: They're playing at Citi field amongst other places. This means that their roster is going to be decimated by injuries.

1st, Las Vegas Locomotives: J.P. Losman & Vegas is a combination construed by god in heaven. Vegas takes the title.

I have a 25% shot, assuming the league actually finishes up the season so this prediction is likely more accurate than my NFL one.

How bad is Bollinger? Come on Karnak, do some homework. Read something other than what you write.

I unfortunately needed to watch Brooks Bollinger quarterback the Jets in regular season games. He's not good. Hence why he is no longer even a 3rd string NFL Quarterback.

If you think he's good than you are either a family member, or a delusional Badger fan.

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...
