Rockies 2010
Posted in: baseball | Comments (0)
It is simply amazing.
The Rockies are only 4 games out of the Wild Card despite every starter but Jimenez hitting the DL this year, Tulo out for a month, Stewart not hitting for average, Helton on the way out, Iannetta clearly a AAA player, Hawpe so far off the map he’s playing AAA for the Rays – and they have Manuel Corpas on the roster – on purpose! All of those things, all of those close games that they blew, the terrible post-All Star slide and they are still in contention, although a long shot. Honestly, imagine if this team could actually put it together.

NFL Division winners
Dallas, Green Bay, New Orleans, San Francisco
New England, Baltimore, Indianapolis, San Diego
WC: NYGiants, Atlanta, NYJets, Houston
NFC: Green Bay over New Orleans
AFC: Indy over Baltimore
Super Bowl: Packers over Colts
Worst Records : Rams, Bucs, Browns, Bills, Raiders.
And, no, Denver is not as good as a .500 team. Denver will have a near all-time NFL worst defense. The over/under on QB sacks for Denver? I’d guess 15. Average yards yielded per game? 405. I doubt they will even keep a team in single digit scoring all season.

Mr NBA James

Where will he end up? Normally I don’t care about the NBA, but here’s some words to consider.
If he wants to win the NBA title, he’s not far in Cleveland. Just add the two pieces and don’t add to your own contract.
If he wants the most money, go wherever that is and be done and don’t pretend you care about winning.
There’s no reason to go to Chicago (which isn’t closer to a title than the Cavs) unless his goal is to be the best ever and he thinks he can take Jordan down by winning titles with Jordan’s team.
The Nets? Nyets? I don’t care if the owner gives him his body weight in rubles, potato skins and 23% of the franchise. Don’t be a star in New Jersey if you can help it.
The reason to stay in Cleveland? It makes you look like a good guy and if you win, you bring the first title to the city in forever. The last guy to win a title in Cleveland was, I think, Otto Graham. When was that? Here’s a hint – the name Otto was popular.

World Cup 6/23

Wait a minute – was that the US team actually doing something… clutch? I’m not sure the national team has come through when it needed it most, perhaps ever. Congrats to them and a matchup with (likely) either Germany or Serbia.
You can never really feel bad about making it out of the group stage -no matter what comes next.

Seriously, what’s with the uniforms? We got sideways stripes, solids, numbers and the back is stripes, then a space for the number and then stripes again. The Kansas City Kings had a better kit than this. The Denver Broncos’ vertical striped socks were better than this. Honestly, I have played for co-ed softball teams with a nicer look.

Like Jersey Shore?

From the people who brought you the ‘Jersey Shore’ comes ‘Utah Shore’, from the coastline fo the Great Salt Lake. See a group of 20-something friends who got married at 21 and had 3 kids by 25. With skin colors ranging from pale to translucent, they don’t drink alcohol, smoke, wear short pants and can’t touch caffeine. Enjoy their hilarious adventures as the group stays up past 8 pm, the women try to wear a tank top in public without being arrested and the boys bypass Playboy magazine for the Book of Moroni.
If you love Jersey Shore but hate drunks, cursing, orange women and kids who can’t dress themselves= you’ll LOVE Utah Shore. Coming soon to Animal Planet.

Yeah- in my Major League debut I stuck out 14, walked none, gave up 4 hits in 7 innings and stuck out the last 7 guys I faced while hitting 101 mph a few times along the way. Yepper, that’s exactly what I did. Struck out 14, stuck out the side on 11 pitches, got the win – this is exactly what happened to me.

Travis Henry

Yesterday I saw someone wearing a Denver Broncos Travis Henry jersey.
I’m trying to decide – do you think they respect Henry for fathering 9 children with 9 different women
-or-
do they respect him for being arrested for financing a cocaine trafficking ring?
Tough choice.
