You Lucky S.O.B.

Darren Rovell of CNBC caught up with one of the lucky S.O.B.s that dropped a $1 on the Superfecta over the weekend and took home $278,503. His reasoning? He likes the Jockey...














In all honesty I checked out the Kentucky Derby page on Friday afternoon and said "I like the jockey uniform with the hat. I've never seen that before. If I was going to bet I'd probably throw down on the hat." So I guess liking the jockey is slightly less lucky than what I would have been if I decided to throw 20$ bucks on Mine That Bird because of a stupid uniform design.


I of course did not gamble 20$ and did not win 1000 dollars. Screw me.

Numbers On Steroids: Bret Boone

Numbers on Steroids is a look at baseball players during the 90s to see if anything screams out at you. Mr. Boone was once the best power hitting second baseman in the league. How questionable was his success? Averages Say: Why the extra plateu in his mid 30s? At Bats Per Home Run Says: Lowest at Bats Per Home Runs at 37? Hmm.... Explaining It Away Yeak, this one is tough. Umm, late bloomer? He showed potential power early in his career and he just liked playing in Seattle a lot more than everywhere else? And umm, his career was kind of like a running backs in that it just all of a sudden fell off the map? Any of these convincing you? The Verdict Guy never hits more than 24 home runs in a season and then in his age 32 season he hits 37? And in SafeCo a pitchers park to boot? And he follows that up with 24, 35, 24 homer years still at SafeCo? And then he completely falls off the map in 2005 never to be heard from again? We've got a Screamer... Man Get Big Muscles In 30s. Hm...
