Player of the D.A.Y.
S.A.N.T.A.N.A.
Hello basketball site! Let’s take a break from talking about football to talk baseball.
SANTANA! SANTANA! SANTANA! SANTANA! SANTANA! SANTANA! SANTANA!
Omar, you genius! Loving the big market life!
Okay, Player of the D.A.Y. time from over the weekend. After reading the numbers, it occurred to me that this voting race could possibly be a complete sham, just like many voter races!
On with the fun.
Games played Friday night: Shawn Marion hit the buzzer-beater in Phoenix-Cleveland, and there was the Dallas-Lakers game with Dirk leading the Mavs, but I’m going with Rip Hamilton’s 32-8-8 in a win over Orlando.
Games played Saturday: Dwyane Wade finally put an end to the Miami losing machine, but the big game of the night was the stunning New Orleans blowout of the Spurs in San Antonio. David West scored 32 on 15 of 19. I know, Chris Paul is the engine, but David was the, I dunno, front tires that rolled over the Spurs.
Games played Sunday: Al Jefferson, your 40 and 19 was overshadowed. LeBron in the primetime showdown with 41 and 9 is the winner.
Games played Monday: Let’s go to New Orleans again. The #1 seed in the West. Who saw that coming? Chris Paul with 23-17-9.

Yay, the Mets are just like the Yankees and Red Sox, except they haven’t won a World Series in 22 years. Baseball sucks.

I am prepared to bust out laughing circa October 2008, when Tom Glavine has more wins and a better ERA than Santana.

YES. Santana to the Mets makes my WEEK. There apparently is a higher power.

I’m trying to come up with a basketball equivalent trade (using baseball rules). What would it be? The Kings trading Mike Bibby to the Celtics for Gabe Pruitt, Leon Powe, and two D-Leaguers?

I made sure that Sam realizes Santana went 15-13 last year. Let’s trade the farm!

Sam Rubenstein says:
ah yes, W-L that flawless indicator of performance. Lang’s an old-timer. SANTANA had a WHIP of 1.07, only Peavy was better.

Dude ure quoting a santana line from a chris brown song? pretty gangsta….and Sam, how come u only come out of the woodshed to talk about your wack-as,s teams doing big things. Maybe I’m hating cause I’m a Jets/Yankees fan, but come on dude, reserve your praise until they get the big wins (no hate on the G-Men, they’ve been coming up huge, but leave that corny as,s Jim Jones song at home)

Sam Rubenstein says:
it’s true… the song S.A.N.T.A.N.A. I have not listened to in years. This was a special occasion. Jared you should be thankful the Mets took him before the Sox got him. You’re welcome.
Jan.30 at 12:13 pm
Jared says:
Eh, the Sox won the world series and aside from Schilling and Wakefield have a pretty young core of pitchers, oh yea, bucholz and lester didn’t even play this year…sweet. Can’t hate though, I’m from Queens, but don’t get ahead of yourself.
