Tiger Woods Needs Lessons


Tiger Woods is arguably the greatest golfer of all time. His passion and intensity and work ethic is unparalleled. In all likelihood he will pass Jack in almost every major category. Yet with all his accolades and all his talents Tiger is undeniably horrible at one thing on the golf course. He and caddy Steve Williams are kings of the awkward High Five. Every single major celebration they have ends in the creation of an eye cringingly embarrassing High Five. Whether it was yesterdays putt to send the US Open into a playoff or the epic shot at Augusta on the 16th, it all ends with a sorry attempt at the high five.

But fear not Tiger I have you're cure and your teacher. If you and your caddy Steve dedicate yourself with the same intensity and devotion as you do your golf game you to can have non awkward high fives. And because I trust your drive I will set you up with one of the plates #1 high five specialist. A man who is often criticized because his high fives are so spectacular that they can create fury in the opposition. A high five that was blamed for the motivation of the miserable Marlins to dismantle his team in the final weekend of the season. That man, that high five artist and your future teacher is Jose Reyes.


You want flare you want style when you hit one of the greatest shots in history rather than an embarrassing smack of forearms? Than you want Jose Reyes wisdom in the art of the high five. With just a few lessons from Reyes you too Tiger can have a patented high five which could be revered as much as your golf game. And then finally your celebrations will be in the same stratosphere as your golf game.

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...

This Is Why the New York Mets Can't Win Anymore

It's pretty simple why the Mets can't win games anymore and are morphing into the second worst team in the National League, they can't score runs. The below chart shows exactly whats happenned to their offensive output since each of the major devastating injuries. The blue line shows runs scored for each game through out the season. The pink line shows the average runs the Mets scored when they had everyone, the yellow when they were missing Delgado, the light blue when they were missing Delgado and Reyes, and finally the purple when they were missing Delgado, Reyes and Beltran. In the abscence of Reyes, Delgado and Beltran the Mets are averaging barely over 3 runs per game. In stark contrast, with everyone on the roster the Mets were scoring just over 5 runs per game. That's a wholesale difference and why their roster now equals a lot of losses and a day by day progression further out of a playoff spot.
