We are four humble men who love sports, but hate sports commentary. Peter Gammons is our hero and John Madden is our enemy. If you were to ask us our purpose, our answer would be simple: "We are forever locked in Mortal Kombat for the souls of sports fans everywhere. Statistics are our science and 'the immeasurable character of men' is the obsolete religion of blind faith. Our job is to prove that God doesn't exist and that athletes are merely cold, metal machines with no hearts or souls."

Mark Prior gets another chance
Mark Prior was signed by the Sand Diego padres to a minor league deal. This is the second chance their giving him in 2 years. Last year he had a guarantee deal and made a million dollars for doing nothing. He didn’t throw a pitch! This year the Padres have a tight budget so he gets the minor league deal and can make a million dollars if he makes it to the major league level. Supposedly the Yankee’s were also interested in him, but he decided to go back to his hometown team. That tells me the Yankees wouldn’t pay more than the million. Mark hasn’t pitched in the Major Leagues since the 2006 season. We will see if he makes his comeback this year.
