Hall
of Shame - Week 6
Everybody Knows Your Name
I
don't care who you are; Player, Coach, Broadcaster, Writer, you name it.
You sucked, and we're going to tell you why.
Another staff
favorite, our Hall of Shame picks highlight our individual selections for the
worst sports-related performers of the week.

Hindsight - Game
Playing By NFL Coaches
Everybody who watches the pre-game
shows for the last minute news on player status raise your hands. (I
hope almost all of you had your hands up.) Every week we have to deal
with the purposefully vague injury information distributed by the teams,
which makes it hard to decide who will actually be playing that Sunday.
The only real information often does
not get disseminated until 15-20 minutes before the start of the
contest. The nice thing is that last report is usually right on the
money because who would they need to fool at that point right?
Wrong. In a ludicrous display of pointless game playing, both the
Patriots and Saints distributed purposefully false information to the
networks and the league this past week. The message that was distributed
to fans right before the games was:
"Corey Dillon will definitely be on the field today."
"Joe Horn will not only play this week, he will start."
Now I can understand playing games throughout the week which makes the
other team game-plan for multiple possibilities, but right before game
time? Come on. You didn't help your team's cause at all, you just caused
tons of fantasy teams to start players who you knew would not play a
down.
For years I have had a fantasy rule of thumb, never draft a Denver
running back, Shannahan plays too many games. Now I guess that I may
have to add Belichick and Haslett to the list.
To all of the NFL Coaches out there who
play pointless games, get in The Hall!

The Sandman -
Stephen Davis
Late last week it was evident that DeShaun
Foster wouldn’t play so Davis' owners got excited. This meant that Davis
should have been on the field more, leading to more carries and yards.
Instead you got a terrible performance, 13 carries for 27 yards. This
was against a team that was allowing 115 yards rushing on the ground per
game.
Davis owners must have been angry when he would come in for one play,
run the ball and then go to the sideline for the next couple of plays.
The Panthers didn’t have much success running the ball even though Davis
was expected to have a top-five fantasy day. Instead he gets to hear
those famous four words, Welcome to the Hall Stephen. |
