It’s another Tuesday, it’s raining, there’s nothing particularly that needs doing so I’ll just vedge(sp) and take the hour or so it will take me to whine.
First of all, the Monday Night Football game was horrid…totally unwatchable. Why can’t anybody figure out in advance that Arizona is just barely a professional team at all? To match them up with any team is risky. What team wouldn’t have beaten the Cardinals last night? Detroit plays harder. Buffalo definitely plays harder, and smarter too. The Rams, now that they have a real live quarterback, would dance rings around that sorry bunch from Arizona.
Of course, the Giants won. That makes me happy since I thought it would take their best effort to knock off even the likes of Jacksonville. It’s really a tribute to them from the coaches to all the remaining healthy players that they were able to come from behind to take the lead and then hold it against a Jaguar team that was still trying to show some fight. The Jets won too on Thanksgiving but they were once again nothing to write home about.
The Knicks have been doing better than expected and the Nets started really slow but are showing signs of life. All of the above is promising better times for New York fans this winter, and maybe even into the March Madness of college basketball. And by that time, spring training will have started. Life is good if you’re into sports and not so much into shopping and Cyber Monday crapola, the teetering economy or global warming.
Another melodrama that will keep the NY area humming until the wee hours of February is the Derek Jeter negotiation. I’m enjoying it immensely so far. The one question, it seems to me, that no one is asking is how the Players Union and the MLB Commissioner’s office feel about rewarding a player for his marketing value. There is the power of precedent to be considered. Why shouldn’t every player want to add value to their contracts? Wouldn’t the Commissioner want the Yanks to take a hard line on this icon talk?
All this is great stuff for a Mets fan. There couldn’t be a wider division between the parties. And, while it’s hard to envision Jeter playing for any other team, the Yankees have essentially told Jeter to get other offers. But other teams will be skittish about being a pawn in that game. So any offers will come late, only after they are convinced Jeter may really consider a uniform without stripes. How great would it be for some team that would be willing to pay Jeter a premium for his market value? A Detroit or a Boston (just to drive the Yanks crazy) might enjoy getting some attention and more fannies in their seats for just a few million dollars premium per year. Then the question will really be how much the Yankees want Jeter and how much Jeter wants the Yankees.
The team is clearly in the driver’s seat. The Yankees can function quite nicely without Jeter. While they’d take a lot of heat in the first Jeter-less year, especially when he’d get his 3000th hit for say, Kansas City. Heh-heh,. They’d look better and better as Jeter would get older and older. It’d be virtually impossible for Jeter to score his hundred runs per year for any other team but the Yankees, who have continually surrounded him with hitters in their own right.
Juan Uribe, about five years younger than Jeter and the San Francisco Giants postseason wunderkind, just signed a 3-year contract with the Dodgers for 21 million. Based on that figure, I’d say Jeter’s worth about 10 to 11 million per year. The Yankees offered him 15 mill for 3 years, a figure already that included market value. I’d understand totally if the Yankees felt that Jeter was holding them up. They would be entitled to be thinking Jeter should accept a pay cut from his last contract, his 10-year 189 million deal. The Yankees should stick to their guns, and if they do, things should get really interesting. And what if they withdraw their 15 million offer? Then what?
Meanwhile, the Mets have done almost nothing. Today I heard that their pretty fine left-handed specialist in the bullpen, Pedro Feliciano, turned down arbitration, which would seem to indicate that the market is good. It would also seem the Mets want to keep their better players, definitely a good sign for us Mets fans. The Mets need pitching though and I’m not crazy about the free agent starters. I wouldn’t mind seeing them shop Jason Bay and/or Carlos Beltran for a couple of pitchers. And I’d rather see them get young guns with limitless potential than see them go for broke with a veteran commanding a high salary.
A second baseman wouldn’t hurt either. But there are plenty of second basemen. It’s just not that critical a position. I was happy to see Florida’s slugging Dan Uggla go elsewhere. His fielding has always been atrocious and the Mets fans wouldn’t be tolerant of that. Uggla will be fine in Atlanta though, and Atlanta may be ready next year to challenge the Phillies seriously for the Division Championship. Whatever the Mets do next year, it’s difficult to think they’ll overtake either of the top two contenders.
The Knicks play the Nets tonight and it should be a barn-burner. Although the Knicks are the better team, they’ll be without their starting center Ronnie Turiaf, a factor that should hurt them a lot being that the Nets Lopez will be firing from all directions. But the Knicks have found an unlikely answer to their 2 guard spot in Landry Fields, who doesn’t really score so often as he does all the other things. He shoots well though when he does shoot, he rebounds and assists, goes for loose balls and, well, you get the idea.
The Nets need two more players to compete. Newark anyone?

Gotta Have Skin in the Game
How can you be interested in a sport if you have no team in the hunt?
In the case of college football, I don’t know why I watch college football at all. If it were just for Rutgers, there would be no way I could watch it. It’s hard to get interested in a game for which your local representative plays so poorly. Speaking as a Rutgers alumnus, thank you very much but I’d rather have no football program at all than have to be embarrassed every week by Rutgers and the complacent Greg Schiano. Just to put perspective around how bad Rutgers really is, Schiano’s defense against the likes of Cincinnati was torched for 60 or so points while Connecticut just held them to 17 points. I could grab a couple of kids off the street who’d play better pass defense than Schiano’s sorry group in the secondary.
Nevertheless, I’m sitting here watching Michigan State start to pound Penn State (it’s now 21-10) . And why exactly? Well, Penn State after all has Joe Paterno as the head coach and it’s a clean program too, as far as anyone can tell. What’s not to like about Penn State? They always play defense and very seldom embarrass themselves. They are the anti-Rutgers.
Ohio State too in the Big Ten gets some of my attention if only because my son went to school in Ohio and I can recall a great time watching an OSU game in a shopping mall in Columbus. I also had a friend and co-worker whose daily fervor for the Buckeyes was easily enough to get me excited. But if it weren’t for those two teams, I wouldn’t be watching at all. You have to have a team in the hunt…some skin in the game. That rooting interest can spring from locale of course but only as modified by a team’s ownership and management and players from year to year. Oh yeah, and whether they win or not.
If loyalties depended entirely on wins and losses though, everybody’d be a Yankee fan. Happily for human nature and pocket books everywhere, that is not the case.
My chief interest this time of year goes to professional football, mostly, to be honest, because that’s where my skin in the game resides. We live in the New York area, of course, so why would I like any other team besides the Giants or Jets?
The answer lies in fantasy football, of course, a place to field my very own team. So my rooting interest this Thanksgiving was firmly with the Saints and Drew Brees, who had the skill and moxy to throw long down the field on a third down to hit Bobby Meachem in stride for about 60 yards before delivering a perfect strike to, who else, Lance Moore for a touchdown. And I managed to get a glimpse in the 4 o’clock game of Miles Austin, wide receiver for Dallas and Dem Crabs, racing around the end for about 60 yards and a TD against the Lions.
But overall it was a bad day. The Saints scored mostly on the ground and Jahvid Best didn’t play at all, making my decision to bench Ahmad Bradshaw look ridiculous, despite Coughlin’s foolish decision to punish him. My opponent didn’t fare too well either though, starting with Mark Sanchez, who didn’t exactly shine in the Jets victory over the Bungles. And his star player, Jacksonville’s Maurice Jones-Drew, has to face the Giants on Sunday, a matchup that should favor the Giants, who aren’t as yet totally decimated on the defensive side of the ball.
If I can be said to have a team at all in the NFL, it is the Giants, who are in trouble now after losing several key players to injuries. The Giants are owned by one of the most venerable football families in the universe, the Maras. They’ve won multiple Super Bowls and have brought us great players and great management too. They have a long-time philosophy that stresses the running game and defense. Their GM’s and coaches have generally excelled over the years. Although they might not quite match the Rooneys in Pittsburgh, they are a team well worthy of commanding my attention.
On the other hand are the Jets. Although I like the head coach, the owner’s a little too theatrical for me. He’ll always take the hit in my mind for Brett Favre becoming a Jet, thus single-handedly taking them out of the playoffs. Their GM is totally heartless, a reflection of ownership too, I guess, as he has shown year after year, most recently in the dumping of Leon Washington. The players themselves are a mixed bunch. They have a bunch of guys that are hard to warm up to, Bart Scott, Braylon Edwards, and yes, even Santonio Holmes and his remarkable elusiveness in the end zone. But their success is hard to ignore despite their frailties in the character department.
My point is, it’s easy to be an NFL fan, less so for NCAA football and, heretofore at least, it’s been almost impossible to follow any brand of basketball, be it NBA, NCAA or otherwise. Once again, those feelings can be directly traced to the sorry state of the Knicks, Nets, Rutgers and Seton Hall. If our local team in either MLB league were the likes of the Chicago Cubs, it’d surely affect your love for the game and the league bringing it to you.
Happily for basketball fans, the Knicks mismanagement has considerably improved and the Nets have changed dramatically for the better. The Knicks finally have some players D’Antoni actually likes and the Nets under Avery Johnson have begun to show some predilection for playing on the defensive side of the ball. I’m enjoying basketball again.
I now find myself watching the local games, the NBA Network and yes, I even crave the witticisms of Charles Barkley. I even joined a public fantasy basketball league. Who’s next? Hubie Brown?

On Injuries and Luck
So here we are again on another Tuesday. Everything in the NFL is all too clear. This is title time. December will determine the playoff spots and eventual Super Bowl participants. Those spots will go to the lucky, those teams with fewer injuries and an easier schedule. Every fantasy player knows that. For example, if you were unlucky enough to be including Jahvid Best or Vernon Davis on your week 11 roster, you probably lost.
For the local teams, the Jets so far seem to be far luckier than the Giants. The Giants are fast becoming a shambles. Much of their star receiving corps is decimated. No Steve Smith and no Hakeem Nicks means serious hurt for the G-Men. The offensive line keeps getting made over, seemingly every week. Their defense has been healthier but has had to experience the added pressure of having an offense that can’t stay on the field long enough for them to rest.
Here’s the injury list, courtesy of Yahoo: Check out the players who are out. Diehl is the left tackle, big hurt not to have him; Madison Hedgecock is the fullback. He ordinarily makes holes or makes them wider for the running backs. Shaun O’Hara is their center and he was a pretty damned good one. Steve Smith is their bigtime receiver and the key player when third down rolls around. Shawn Andrews played well under difficult circumstances. The return guy, Hixon, is out. The reserve receivers, Barden and Cruz, are out. Mathias Kiwanuka, another guy who could pressure opposing passers, is out. Quite simply, these remaining Giants are not the Giants.

All that bad luck was certainly in evidence against the Eagles. At first glance, Ahmad Bradshaw and Brandon Jacobs were terrible but when you consider who was blocking for them, maybe they had given a valiant effort against overwhelming odds. The only holes that opened up were in the passing game as Eagles blitzers found the paths to Eli surprisingly wide. Eli was pretty good too when you consider the constant pressure, not to mention the fact he was throwing to receivers who either didn’t get open or weren’t in the right place. It was a pretty sad story on Sunday and it doesn’t figure to get better in a hurry.
The Jets have everybody they need, especially Mark Sanchez and Santonio Holmes. For comparison, the following is their injury list:
Ropati Pitoitua Aug 26, 2010 injured-rese Left Achilles
Kris Jenkins Sep 15, 2010 injured-rese Torn left ACL

Except possibly for Jerricho Cotchery at wideout, the Jets have everybody they need. The Giants situation is ridiculous.
As for the schedule, the Giants upcoming opponents have a record of 33-27 and that includes Minnesota, a team that will probably play a lot better under a new coach. They’ll see Philadelphia again and Washington twice. They’ll see the Packers and the Jaguars and Vikings, and maybe even Brett Favre. I’d be pleasantly surprised if they finish 3-3 over the next six. That would probably get them a playoff spot, but 9-7 is never a lock. As things stand right now, the Packers, Bears, Saints, Falcons and Bucs all have better records and fewer injuries.
The Jets have opponents with a 31-29 record including the Pats again and Pittsburgh and Chicago. If those all result in losses, the Jets could be in trouble too but that’s unlikely. I expect the Jets to be there at the end, if not as AFC East Champions then as a wildcard, and maybe even the second one.
They say people make their own luck. I never believed that. You can be sure the Giants don’t either. It’s amazing they’ve been able to play as well as they have, given that horrific injury list. It speaks well to the quality of their reserves and general management. But reserves are reserves. Even a gifted reserve player hasn’t had the reps required to function as a regular.
I can’t speak of injuries these days without conjuring up images of the sorrowful Mets injuries these last few years. Carlos Beltran, Johan Santana, Jason Bay, Reyes on and off, relief pitchers, the list goes on and on. Three of those four will be back to kick off 2011 but that’s not a sure thing either given the new management situation. Speaking as a longtime Mets fan, a few trades involving a few or even several of these players, wouldn’t necessarily be a bad thing.
But the Mets situation is a column in itself. This was supposed to be about football.
