NFL Week 11 Awards

Wow You Guys Suck: The AFC North, The entire division lost this weekend and they lost badly. The Steelers and Bengals lost to two basement feeders, the Ravens choked away a potential upset of the Colts, and the Browns laughably lost to the Lions. Runners Up: the Broncos are a sinking ship, the Redskins offense can't even put up 9 points.

Cough Cough Cough: Andre Caldwell, Perhaps Caldwell shouldn't have been the replacement for kickoff returns. In a tie game with limited time left the absolute last thing a kick returner can do is cough up the ball. Caldwell did and his team coughed away the game. Runners Up: the Giants defense tried to cough away the game but good ole NFL Overtime Rules saved the day, the Sanchize <3s Arm Punts.

The Shocker: The Bengals & Steelers, I already harped on this twice, but who the hell saw these losses coming? The Chiefs and Raiders are TERRIBLE. Coming into the weekend the two teams had 4 combined wins, two of which were against each other. They are barely NFL teams yet the Steelers and Bengals choked away victories and snatched up defeats. Runners Up: Nothing compares to the AFC North Disaster.

The Pimp: Matthew Stafford, I'm not sure how many people actually had Matthew Stafford or Brady Quinn starting on your fantasy teams this week but if you did, you likely won. Stafford threw 5 tds and had 422 yards. Way to go Browns defense. Runners Up: Ricky Williams is a beast again, there was a Terrell Owens sighting.

This Scarecrow Needs a Brain: Jeff Fisher, 0-6 -> 4-0, I'm no brain surgeon but I think the Titans would have benefited from putting Vince Young in as the starter a bit earlier, say prior to their season being irreversibly damaged. Runners Up: Joe Flacco attempting to bite off more than he should resulting in a game losing INT, Josh McDaniels for opening his trap prior to the game.

You Got JAKKED UP: Some CFL Dude,


My Fantasy MVP: Brett Favre, I drafted Brett Favre in the 11th round after Cassel, Pennington, Orton, Flacco, Hasselbeck, etc. etc. had been picked. He currently had more points then every QB but Brady, Manning Rodgers and Brees, all of whom were drafted in the first 2 rounds. Yay Gunslinger.

New York Jets Anti-MVP: Whoever Covered Welker, So nobody was the Anti-MVP?

My Picks

My Picks: 11-5
Preseason Picks: 11-5
Picks Vs. Spread: 4-12
Pick Suggestions: 2-3

Catastrophe...

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...
