Weekly Waste of Oxygen

After a week off for the Weekley Waste, we are back with mostly nuisances rather than criminal offenses.

1. Billy Crystal Haters - He got 1 at bat and even made contact. That was it. It took a couple of minutes and then the story was over. That's all the story should have been. But nope some stupid ass bags out there had to get enraged for no reason at all. Spend your time doing something productive please.

2. Joe Lunardi - I love College Basketball. Granted my devotion of time to the sport has been less this year than in the recent past, but I still love college basketball. Joe Lunardi on the other hand I could do without. Probably because every time you put on sportscenter he's there. Everyday his opinion changes. Thus everyday prior to sunday his opinion is completely meaningless.

3. Pat Summit - Whistle Blower Summit. First off I don't really understand why it is a recruiting violation to ask a local business to give one of your recruits a tour of their facilities. Sure ESPN may be a little different than the Jack Daniels factory, but whatever who cares. Secondly why these coaches are so eager to report these minor violations is ridiculous.

4. Mitch Williams - I guess the Wild Thing name has always been pretty accurate for Mitch Williams. He's a hot head who bombed out of the league because he couldn't keep it together. A 5th grade catholic league basketball game is pretty meaningless Mitch. Nothing really to get worked up about and certainly nothing where you need to start cursing at the officials for. You must be that embarrassing father that everyone ends up laughing at.

Lou Holtz is the Homer / Annoyingly Delusional

As my buddy Joe and I always joke, if Notre Dame was suiting up against an all Jesus team, aka a team made up of 55 Sons of God, Lou Holtz would probably still pick Notre Dame to win by a touchdown. So of course this weekend when I'm watching Sportscenter and they have him and fellow old man Corso making predictions, Lou picks ND to beat Michigan. Not that big of a deal, Michigan is a big question mark this year, but of course than Lou says that Notre Dame will win 11 games this year. This is the same Notre Dame that lost to a service academy last year. And just when you thought the douchy homerism was going to end ESPN asks which BCS school is going to be the biggest surprise team in the country. Any guesses to whom it was? I'll give you a clue it was another team he coached. If you guessed South Carolina you would be a winner. Next up on Lou's prediction watch, the Jets win the Superbowl, NC St. wins the ACC, Arkansas dominates the SEC West, Minnesota wins the Big...

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...
