The Titans picked Jeff Fisher over Vince Young yesterday. I can’t say that I think that’s a bad decision. Here is what Young said about it,
I like Jeff Fisher as a person, as a coach and everything. I just didn’t feel like he trusted me. In the five years I was there … I feel like he was continuing to treat me like I was a young man when I’d really grown up a whole lot. I just didn’t feel like I had the trust and the love that any other quarterback around the league had. I was always looking over my shoulder. I didn’t feel like I was his guy the whole way.
It was a shaky relationship from the jump. In Fisher’s defense, Young’s off the field issues and sporadic play certainly didn’t help his cause.
With all that said, Vince Young is on the market, along with Donovan McNabb, Kyle Orton, Michael Vick, and others. My thoughts are Vick is a lock to return to Philadelphia. The others should be pretty interesting. Then you throw in Andrew Luck, Jake Locker, Ryan Mallet, etc. There’s a whole lot of quarterbacks to go around this offseason. Vince Young… my guess could be Arizona or Oakland. We will see….
Roberto Alomar and Bert Blyleven were elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame yesterday. It took a while for Blyleven. Robbie Alomar had to sit out a year because he’s a spitter. There were a couple noticeable omissions that were more of a revelation that some guys just aren’t even going to get a sniff.
I have no issue with the voters standing pat and not voting these guys in. If you’ve been implicated and successful, it appears as if the Hall of Fame does not want any part of you. As long as that stays consistent, there will be some guys with Hall of Fame worthy numbers that won’t ever be a part of baseball imortality.

The first play from scrimmage was all I needed to see. Mallet has a cannon. Unfortunately, I don’t know if he has what it takes upstairs to become an elite NFL quaterback. The pocket passing, non-running elite quarterbacks in the NFL (Peyton, Touchdown Tommy) seem to have something else to them.

This is kind of emotionally moving… Until I saw the screen with the old Asian couple sitting on separate sides of the bed. That’s when I almost ejaculated in my pants. If someone has purchased this book, you should proceed to a cliff and jump off it. A woman doesn’t know what it’s like to prematurely ejaculate. To hell with her.
Jenny McCarthy can fly under the radar sometimes. Why that happens I have no idea. She is freekin’ drop dead sexy. I mean ridiculously hot. At the age of 36 she’s doing it man. What the hell she was doing with Jim Carrey is beyond me. She has to go down in the babe hall of fame. Unreal.

A fight over a card game on a charter plane…….(crickets). Ok, now that that has soaked in. Y!Sports has reported that Tony Allen and OJ Mayo came to blows over a debt associated with a card game. OJ Mayo was not in the lineup last night vs. the Thunder despite the fact his coach insists it was because of bronchitis. A source described the incident as follows….
“Tony warned [Mayo] to watch his mouth, and [Mayo] wouldn’t do it and just kept going off on him,”
I’m sure that’s the PG version of the incident. The funniest part about the situation is the card game is called “Boo-Ray”. It’s the same card game that led to the Gilbert Arenas vs. Javaris Crittenton incident last year. I think it’s about time we outlaw that game, don’t you?
In the year 2010, the average individual income in the United States was about $46,800. For the purpose of this exercise we’ll round that up to about 50k. Professional athletes make a lot more money than that. Call it envy or what you like, but we’re often posting articles about the astronomical amounts of money these idiots get paid. While I say that, I follow sports like a mad man essentially putting money into their pockets. Oh well.
With all that said, we selected a few elite athletes and pitted them against the average US citizen. It’s pretty interesting. Take a look………

I often wonder what I would do if I was in the same position as Andrew Luck and others in the past. College must be the time of your life when you’re the stud starting QB. It’s hard to run the risk of not taking millions and millions of dollars. He can certainly get his degree from Stanford even if he bails. Tough call. I believe Harbaugh makes the mistake and goes pro.
