Mets Get A Chef To Heat Things Up…

Monday, April 6th, 2009

mighty healthy dp

GARY SHEFFIELD is now down with my home team. The Mets acquired him after Detroit released the slugger but agreed to pay the lion’s share of his 2009 contract.

SHEFFIELD is only 1 homerun away from the 500 mark and there are several majorleaguers who look to eclipse milestones this season…

600
Alex Rodriguez needs 47

500
Gary Sheffield needs 1
Carlos Delgado needs 31

400
Jason Giambi needs 4
Vladimir Guerrero needs 8

The Mets have two guys on that list who could reach the 500 plateau this season if they stay healthy. I’m not so sure about CARLOS DELGADO getting 31 HRs this season though. I could actually see SHEFFIELD and DELGADO sharing 1B duties.

I’m also not someone who wants to put an asterisk next to the player’s names of those who played in the current era. Keep in mind that BABE RUTH played baseball when many of the game’s best athletes were forbidden from competing.

If the league had remained integrated from the start who do you think would have been the greatest home run hitter?

Wizards Make the MVP Disappear…

Dunks >>> finger roll layups. Word to PATRICK EWING

The Wizards get in the head of the Cleveland Cavaliers the same way the Pistons used to have the Bulls shook. MICHAEL JORDAN eventually had to kick some ass on a supernatural level.

MICHAEL JORDAN was an angry young man.

LeBRON JAMES is way too happy to put his shoe on people like how JORDAN did it. This is why I don’t want him to have the honor of being the league’s MVP. As long as LeBRON doesn’t have to play Washington and Agent Zero he is good. I wonder what Washington does to get in his head so well [ll]?

Truthfully, LeBRON JAMES still got his game on. The Cavalier bench was asscheeks against Washington. ILGUSKAS wasn’t getting it in either, but the Cleveland bench was nowhere to be found. It’s good for Cleveland that the Washington Wizards don’t play the rest of the league like they do when LeBRON is in town.

Despite the fact that Washington’s bench doubled up the production of the Cleveland reserves the tilt was decided by the team leaders. GILBERT ARENAS only had 11pts yet he nearly ended up with a triple-double. The biggest stat between ARENAS and JAMES was the fact that ARENAS had 0 turnovers and LeBRON had 6. That is where leaders take over for their teams.

I’m not going to go there and say that GILBERT ARENAS is better than LeBRON JAMES because we all know that isn’t the case. What is the underlying truth is that since his college days ARENAS has played through the times in the basketball season when the air gets thin and he does not choke that easily.

LeBRON JAMES? Not so much.

The DP.com Final 4 pool also known as ‘Raekwon The Krzyzewski’ rolls on.

The Big East goes in with two of the final spots and the ACC and the Big 10 each have a representative. When I use Yahoo’s Scenario Generator I can see that there are still several poolers still in the running for the top spot.

The final four for the Final 4 pool are…

The Windex Kid
St. Ides’ Prep School
Gimme Mine
Oliver Wrist

The Windex Kid wins our weekly t-shirt giveaway by scoring 56pts total in the 3rd and 4th rounds.

College basketball is on the precipice of irrelevance. There is a 13yr old blue chip prospect about to declare himself eligible for the professional basketball draft. This kid is no Dontrevius Wenters either. He’s even got his own clothing company.

ALLONZO TRIER is his name and he is the future of basketball.

Props to DART ADAMS

The 2009 NCAA men’s college basketball tournament is in full effect. This year we have a boisterous and diverse group vying for a pair of DALLASPENN dot com Nike Dunks courtesy of the good folks in the prA’li movement.

I decided to add a little something extra to the pot since we are mired in an economic recession. The pooler who ends up with the lowest total will also win a pair of kicks too. Since everyone made their selections in an effort to be the king of the hill I feel like showing some love to the biggest loser. I know, I know, that’s mighty Black of me. You are all welcome.

There haven’t been any real major upsets in general, although I did select Wake Forest to go to the Final 4 (I may have been the only one). The Sweet 16 next weekend will have some of the favored teams shaken from the tree. Louisville looks suspect as does Missouri. We’ll see how things come together next weekend. DO the women still have a Final 4 tourney? When are they gonna finally rename that shit the PAT SUMMIT tournament?

PAT SUMMIT is the man!

Wading Into MVP Waters…

I’m not trying to discount everything that DWAYNE WADE has been doing this season. Of all the players being considered for the Association’s MVP statue WADE is clearly playing with the least talent all around him. The Miami Heat are the current version of the Vancouver Grizzlies without WADE in the backcourt.

But is WADE the MVP?

Looking at the latest numbers you can make the argument. WADE recently capped off a tremendous week by becoming the Heat’s all-time leading scorer ahead of ALONZO MOURNING. He did that in a little over half of the games it required MOURNING. DWAYNE WADE is a consistent scorer, but not in the manner that you would want from your MVP’s. KOBE is the dagger scorer who knifes his opponents with 3-pointer and fade-aways so razor sharp that they cut the larynx of the the opposing fans. LeBRON JAMES is the hammer scorer who bullies the basket with thunderous dunks and muscleman jumpers.

DWAYNE WADE scores 50 points and you have to wonder when did he do it. WADE has the most inappropriate court nickname of all time – “Flash”. His work ethic and countenance on the court belie that moniker. If there ever were a lunch pail superstar in professional basketball then WADE is that guy. Those types of descriptions usually go to modestly skilled non-Black athletes, but WADE is supremely skilled and ridiculously humble. This is why WADE is one of the leading assist making two-guards. Do you remember the big deal the press made when KOBE first learned to give an assist? WADE definitely tries to keep his entire team engaged and alert.

DWAYNE WADE is also a tremendous defensive player. This shouldn’t be overlooked when deciding the MVP even though there is a separate award for defensive player of the year. KOBE might be a better individual defender, while I feel that KOBE is a better all around individual player, but as a team player and a team defender and someone who will answer the bell and do whatever his team needs him to do DWAYNE WADE is that dude.

The only reason I might not grant DWAYNE WADE the MVP award is because of those rumors of him dating STAR JONES right after she divorced AL REYNOLDS. That shit right there is more like M.V.PU~.
