NFL Week 14 Awards

Wow You Guys Suck: Tampa Bay Buccaneers, The Bucs gained ZERO yards in the first half. No really, their final yardage total in the first have was ZERO. The didn't gain a first down until midway through the 3rd quarter and the only reason they got a first down is because Hot Head Bart Scott ripped off an O-Lineman's helmet and got a 15 yard personal foul penalty. Without that penalty its 4th down, they punt and probably don't score a single point. Runners Up: the Lions and Rams were both tremendously embarrassed.

Cough Cough Cough: Aaron Ross, The Giants had just taken the lead after fighting back through most of the game and on the Eagles first play back on offense Aaron Ross and the secondary lose sight of DeSean Jackson. McNabb hits him in stride for a 60 yard td and that was it. Runners Up: the Cardinals literally gave away the game last night, the Falcons playoff chances are over.

The Shocker: Pittsburgh Steelers, The Steelers finalized their 2009 collapse with a loss to of all teams the Cleveland Browns. The Browns are terrible. Their offense is putrid and they were missing 3/4 of their starting defensive line yet the Steelers O-Line was embarrassed and their defense actually gave up points. Runners Up: for whatever reason the 49ers have the Cardinals number, the Bungles got crushed.

The Pimp: Brandon Marshall, His team may have lost the game, but anytime you catch 21 passes in a game, score 2 tds and go over 200 yards, you're an automatic pimp of the week. Runners Up: Matt Schaub and Andre Johnson put up diesel numbers against the Seahawks, Chris Johnson might as well be a pimp every week.

This Scarecrow Needs a Brain: Wade Phillips, 4 straight plays the Cowboys decided to pound the rock at the goal line and 4 straight plays they were denied. Now the Cowboys sit in a position where it could be a very very rough December. Quite possibly a playoff eliminating December. Runners Up: the Colts won but perhaps they should have doubled Brandon Marshall, the Rams should have forfeited the game and not shown up.

You Got JAKKED UP: Appalachian State Go Boom,


My Fantasy MVP: Bungles D, No one stood out on my team. Everyone basically put up 14 points so we'll go with the Bungles and their INT for a td.

New York Jets MVP: Tampa Bay's Offense, Wow were they a joke.

My Picks

My Picks: 13-3
Preseason Picks: 9-7
Picks Vs. Spread: 9-7
Pick Suggestions: 4-1

Wow, a week of sanity. Thank goodness.

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...
