The Cats found out Wednesday of Tuesday's game

Cats fans need to shut the fuck up. You're not going to fire Gillispie because he lost to Gardner-Webb, and you don't fire him for only beating Stony Brook by 10. He's playing with house money right now. You know who he's brought in here? Alex Legion and P2. That's enough right now. You guys ran Tubby out of town, and this guy gives all he can to recruiting (I'm not gonna say Tubby didn't, because he got Tayshawn, Ramel, Crawford, Morris, and Rondo. Stating Tubby didn't care is a joke.)

They're gonna get dismantled by UNC, but hopefully it'll be competitive at the half.

GET.
FUCKING.
SICK.

R.I.P. Knicks

True.

Nearly 50 points.
The Knicks lost by NEARLY 50 FUCKING POINTS. Yes, it was to the Celtics, which is expected but kills a true Knicks fan even more.
PLUS Boston was trying to be nice about it, playing Garnett for only 22 minutes, with Allen and Pierce playing 29 a piece. Garnett had 7 rebounds in the first six minutes. Nate Robinson lead the Knicks in points...with 11. Glen "Big Baby" Davis had 13 points and 6 rebounds, which would have made him the Knicks leading scorer and second best rebounder; too bad he was the Celtics scrub.
This team can't put shit together for whatever reason. They have way too much talent to be performing this crappy. Curry doesn't give a shit, Marbury is a fucking headcase, and Randolph is about 5 more loses away from just saying "Fuck it-I'm gonna go get into some shit. We lose'n anyway." They have a high energy team in Nate, DLee, Balkman, Collins, Crawford, and Randolph. It's just too bad Nate isn't starters material, Balkman has no offensive game, Collins has no game outside of passing, and Crawford is either extremely hot/cold every night.
Isiah, and I hate to say it, has to go. I'm gonna sound like a raving fan/lunatic, but get rid of Marbury in any way possible. I'm not gonna go Skip Bayless on this situation, but in the words of Stephan A. Smith "They could take Winny the Pooh and be a better team."

Isiah has no business having a job by tomorrow morning when I wake up.

Old News: Reds Know Shit

You have a 50-50 chance on being right on this pitch

I know this is old, but I just got around to writing about it. Francisco Crodero signed with the Cincy Reds for 4 years/$46 mil a couple of days ago.

So, what a deal! You're complaining about money woes, so you sign Cordero for $11.5 mil a year-which puts you out of the market for Dunn next year. You make Dusty " Clog'n dem bases" Baker your manager-he's notorious for killing pitchers (i.e. Prior/Wood) and not liking small ball. ALSO, you signed a closer with the money you probably should've used on a starter (Weathers wasn't THAT bad, it was more the setup men-a role Weathers now takes over for). The Reds have Arroyo, maybe Bailey, and Harang as their starters, and I think they should've saved their money for Dunn.

Jason Kendall Robs the Brewers

"Where did he go?!"

The deal isn't that bad (1 yr/$4.25 mil) for a catcher, but since he's brought in to be, primarily, a "leader" it's a little much. He hit .242, OBP of .301, a commanding .309 SLG %, with 4 homers over the past three years. Was Estrada that much of a pain in the ass? Do the Brewers really think that Kendall will put them over the top? I would hope that this all isn't because management thought that Mota was the answer for the departed Cordero.

Kendall is still a good defensive catcher, but his bat has lost some luster and I'm not sure that his perceived "leadership" quality really translates into more wins.

Just a Quick Note

Can I please see the ad for Boost Mobile one more time in the next ten minutes? I really need to find out who the drag queen at the end of the song is. He/She is a fucking ghost.

More Eli Backlash

The Daily News had a column about Eli in today's sports section:

http://www.nydailynews.com/sports/football/giants/2007/11/26/2007-11-26_eli_manning_too_calm_tom_coughlin_not.html

This is what I dislike about New York Sports writers (Mike Lupica is in his own league when it comes to drivel). What the hell is Eli supposed to say? To you want him to break down while you're interviewing him? I'm pissed because I have to stand up for Eli, which I would never do alone, and because the New York media NEVER seems to want someone to succeed. It's your own team, for fucks sake! STAND BEHIND SOMEONE BESIDES JETER! A-Rod can go 10-for-9, with the first 5 run homer ever, but with an error at 3rd, and guess what the writers will point out. Go on, guess. "Jeter would have backhanded it, thrown to first to get the runner out, jumped into the stand to give the Pope the Heimlich Maneuver, and then banged Adrianna Lima-and paid for her parking!" What garbage.

Garbage & Garbage

So, Are We All Off Of Eli's Dick Yet?

"What? No, NO, I TOLD THEM I WAS A MANNING!"

Eli Manning is best known for three things:

1).

2). Being a whiny bitch and having his dad demand that the Chargers don't draft him.
3). Having a famous last name.

There, there are the only reasons that anyone should talk about him anymore. He has a good arm, but that is wiped by his pouting kid face. He's given way too much credit for the Giants success this year, meanwhile Jacobs, the D line, and even Shockey are more deserving of the praise. He has a 75.0 QB Rating (A flawed rating system, but still somewhat valid) to go along with 15 INTs (16 TDs) so far this year. That puts him in the elite company of J.P. Losman (Who was benched at one point this year) and Damon Huard (Currently benched). To be fair, he has more TDs than those two combined, but he has a lower completion rate, and also has thrown 200+ more passes than each. I'm convinced that if his last name was Johnson, he wouldn't have gone 1st, and there's no telling who the Giants would have drafted (Rivers? Big Ben? Me?). They also gave up their entire draft in 2004 for him, along with their 2005 #1 pick, who the Chargers turned into Shawn Merriman (the 12th selection overall, in the worst draft in maybe a decade or more).

Then again, I'm a Jets fan, so I hope they stick with him until 2020.
