San Francisco, CA (Sports Network) - Andres Torres capped his four-hit day with a deep bases-loaded single in the 10th inning, lifting the Giants to a 10-9 win over the Florida Marlins at AT&T Park.

Torres added a two-run homer and Juan Uribe had three hits and drove in four runs for San Francisco, which is putting pressure on NL West-leading San Diego by winning six of its last seven games. Buster Posey extended his hitting streak to 21 games for the Giants, who won despite blowing a 9-2 lead after six innings.

Dan Uggla homered for the sixth time in as many games and tied the contest with an RBI double with two outs in the ninth inning. He has 143 homers for his career, tying the Marlins team record set by Mike Lowell. Pinch-hitter Donnie Murphy added a three-run homer and Ronny Paulino clubbed a solo shot for the Marlins.

Hanley Ramirez singled and Logan Morrison doubled with one out in the ninth inning. A groundout by Gaby Sanchez scored Ramirez with two outs. Uggla, facing a 3-2 count against closer Brian Wilson, slugged a ground-rule double to the gap in left-center field. Pinch-hitter Wes Helms struck out swinging to end the inning.

The Giants had a rally thwarted in the bottom of the ninth after putting two men on base, but capitalized in the 10th against Clay Hensley (1-4). Aaron Rowand singled to left field and Edgar Renteria followed by hitting a ball that bounced off the chest of third baseman Murphy. Nate Schierholtz singled sharply to right field and Torres followed by taking the first pitch deep to left-center field to end the game.

Jonathan Sanchez was charged with seven hits and five runs over six-plus innings, but fanned seven batters in the start for the Giants. Chris Ray (2-0) picked up the victory by retiring the side in order in the top of the 10th.

Florida's Alex Sanabia was shelled for nine hits and seven runs over two-plus innings.

The Giants totaled six hits in the first inning, including RBI singles from Aubrey Huff and Rowand, and a two-run base hit from Uribe.

Morrison doubled in Ramirez in the third, but the Giants got a two-run triple from Uribe in the bottom of the frame, and he then scored on a Jorge Sosa wild pitch.

Paulino homered in the fourth, but Torres went deep in the sixth to provide the 9-2 margin.

Murphy homered off Sanchez in the seventh, and Uggla went deep against Denny Bautista later in the inning to get the visitors within 9-7.

The Giants have won 18 games so far this month and with two more victories, they'll have their first 20-win month since September 2000...Posey's streak is the second-longest by a rookie in San Francisco-era history behind Hall of Famer Willie McCovey's 22-gamer in 1959. Benito Santiago holds the major league rookie record for hitting safely in 34 straight games in 1987. The longest consecutive game hitting streak in San Francisco era history (since 1958) is held by Jack Clark, who hit safely in 26 games in 1978...San Francisco swept a three-game set from the Marlins earlier in the year and has won seven of the last nine meetings in the series.

Hail to the Buster, the Buster, the Buster!
Hail to the Buster, the Buster Po-sey!
With singles and doubles and triples and homers!
Hail to the Buster, the Buster Po-sey!

“Hail to the Buster” was a song Florida State fans came up with to serenade their Golden Spikes award winning catcher during his at- bats. Such is the talk amongst Giants fans these days of one baby-faced rookie named Gerald D. Posey, better known as Buster. Although they haven’t quite learned the tune just yet, maybe they should call Tony Bennett or Huey Lewis in. 

While the San Francisco Giants have never won a World Series, they have produced some of the greatest players to ever play the game, including the greatest of them all Willie Mays (shut up with your Babe Ruth talk, he played before the color barrier came down). Posey looked very good during his first month up from Fresno this year, but didn’t necessarily show anything that would cause people to start comparing him to Mays, McCovey, Cepeda, Clark, or Bonds, other than the fact that the Giants haven't produced an All-Star position player since Ronald Reagan was President.

But during the month of July he’s looked like the right-handed version of Joe Mauer, except better. Posey’s current numbers for the month of July include an 18-game hitting streak, .469 average, .511 on-base percentage, and an .815 slugging percentage, numbers usually reserved for Barry Bonds and video games.

Recently, Posey passed Orlando Cepeda for second on the list of longest hitting streaks by a San Francisco Giants rookie and now only trails Hall of Famer Willie McCovey. As Posey continues to decimate National League pitching, his rookie season is approaching rarified air and is beginning to be compared to the rookie seasons of former Giants greats like McCovey.

Because Posey spent the first few months of the season in Fresno—either so the Giants could avoid Posey obtaining “Super 2” status or because he wasn’t quite ready for the big leagues or because Brian Sabean is the worst GM in baseball, depending on who’s story you believe—it’s a little difficult to compare his rookie season thus far to former Giants greats, but still a worthy endeavor.

Here’s a look at how Posey’s numbers stack up against other Giant greats in their rookie seasons

Player Year G AVG OBP SLG OPS HR WAR

Buster Posey 2010 48 .371 .407 .579 .986 8 2.2

Willie Mays 1951 121 .274 .356 .472 .828 20 4.3

Orlando Cepeda 1958 148 .312 .342 .512 .854 25 4.0

Willie McCovey 1959 52 .354 .429 .656 .1085 13 3.3

Jim Ray Hart 1964 153 .286 .342 .498 .840 31 5.6

Gary Matthews 1973 148 .300 .367 .532 .899 12 4.0

Will Clark 1986 111 .287 .343 .444 .787 11 1.9

Barry Bonds* 1986 113 .223 .330 .416 .746 16 3.4

 

*Bonds played his rookie season in Pittsburgh.

As you can see, Jim Ray Hart’s rookie season in 1964 still stands out as the best rookie season for a Giant in the last 60 years, but through roughly the same number of games Posey’s numbers are comparable to that of Willie McCovey. Unlike McCovey, Posey doesn’t have the luxury of being in the same lineup as Mays and Cepeda, but he also doesn’t have to play at Seals Stadium or in the pitching-dominated era of the late 50’s and early 60’s.  

The other thing that is noticeable about Posey’s numbers in comparison to other Giants greats is that he is trailing most everyone on the list in terms of HR’s, except Will Clark, and doesn’t project to pass them or in some cases come close in his rookie season. Not to worry, Posey as a hitter is much closer to Will Clark than he is to Willie Mac, with gap to gap power and the ability to take almost any pitch the other way.

While Posey may not compete for home run crowns, he may very well compete for batting titles and is currently outpacing everyone on the list in terms of batting average, some of whom he is outpacing by a huge margin. While Posey doesn’t project to be as great a player as Mays or Bonds, his average is .097 and .148 higher than their rookie averages respectively.

Baseball, however, isn’t a purely offensive game. Defense matters, after all wasn’t it Benjamin Franklin who said, “every run saved is a run earned?” Up until this point, Posey’s defense has been excellent. Thus far Posey has thrown out 43 percent of runners trying to advance, and is yet to allow a passed ball. What’s more is that the Giants starting pitchers, with the exception of Madison Bumgardner, are not exactly the best at holding runners on, which makes Posey’s CS percentage all the more impressive. 

It remains to be seen whether Posey will enjoy the same type of career that Mays, McCovey, or Bonds did, but right now he’s on track. However, while some great players enjoy rather pedestrian rookie seasons—Clark, Bonds—other pedestrian players enjoy great rookie seasons, so it’s important to remember that while rookie seasons are good indicators of what’s to come, they’re not perfect. Just ask Pablo Sandoval. 

Any given Sunday isn't just a decent (I stress the word decent) football movie starring Tony Montana and a blind piano player. It's also a saying that rings true to all football fans. On any given Sunday, any team can take down another. Yes, on any given Sunday the Lions can beat the Colts or the Browns can beat the Saints. This saying gives hope to the fans of the teams that have struggled in the past and it serves as a warning to the fans of the teams who always seem to be in the playoffs.

In the second quarter of the regular season, the Bengals have some pretty tough games including a home Monday Night Football game against their rival Pittsburgh Steelers. After the Bengals sweep through the first four games of the 2010 season, they host the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in week five. Then the Bengals have a bye during week six of the season. After their football free weekend, the Bengals travel to Hotlanta to face the falcons in week seven. In week eight, the Bengals come back home to Cincinnati to host the Miami Dolphins and in week nine, the Bengals will play the Steelers at home in front of a national audience on Monday Night Football. So, let's get to it.

The Game: Tampa Bay had an abysmal season last year finishing with just three games in the win column. Even though they added some talent via the NFL draft with players like Gerald McCoy and Arrelious Benn, I don't expect the Buccaneers to make a playoff run in 2010.

One of the more interesting story lines during this game will be the Bengals acquisition of Antonio Bryant. Bryant was released by the Buccs after disappointing stay that was riddled with injuries. Bengals fans will look for Bryant to give them a similar show that Benson gave them when the Bengals played the Bears in 2009. They will be excited to see what Bryant does to the team that gave up on him.

Buccaneers quarterback Josh Freeman went 3-6 last season as a starter but has good arm strength and with a little experience and some more polish, he could prove to be a decent quarterback. Surrounding Freeman are some talented but young wide receivers and Kellen Winslow at tight end.

While the Buccs offense may be better this season than it was last season, the Bengals defense should prove to be more than a tough match for the Tampa Bay offense. Young Buccaneer wide receivers may have a hard time breaking free from Jonathan Joseph and Leon Hall which should allow the Bengals defensive linemen plenty of time to put the squeeze on Freeman. If they can't sack him they may be able to force him into making a few mistakes that young quarterbacks tend to make.

The Game: What a difference a quarterback can make. The Falcons seemed to be lost when quarterback and face of the franchise Michael Vick was busted for his part in an underground dog fighting ring. Enter, Matt Ryan. The young quarterback from Boston College gave the people of Atlanta something to cheer for. With the acquisition of tight end Tony Gonzalez and the emergence of Roddy White and of course, Michael Turner, the Falcons have had an offense not to be taken lightly.

Surprisingly, I think this will be the toughest game of the second quarter of the season. Falcons running back Michael Burner Turner runs behind a tough offensive line. That combined with Matt Ryan's accuracy to a talented group of wide receivers and one of the greatest tight ends to ever take the field will make this a tough team to beat.

Hopefully, somewhere down in Atlanta right now, there's some guy writing an article saying the same thing about the Bengals offense versus the Falcons defense. The Falcons defense has had problems getting to the quarterback in the last couple of seasons and the Bengals offensive line should be good enough to hold off a mediocre pass rush. Atlanta's secondary was toast last season, getting burnt more often than well.... toast. They acquired veteran defensive back Dunta Robinson to try to help address this concern but the Bengals talented corps of wide receivers and new tight end Jermaine Gresham should be enough to exploit their weakness. Carson Palmer will have to be on top of his game to come home from Atlanta with a win.

The Game: The Bengals are going to get a nice trick-or-treat bag filled to the brim with the Wildcat offense this Halloween. While that might sound scary, I don't think it's anything to really be terribly afraid of. Call me old fashioned, but I still consider the Wildcat to be more of a gimmick than a bona fide offensive scheme. Since Miami first tested it out a couple years ago, almost every other pro football team tried their hand at it. There's no doubt that Miami is the best at it but there is also no question that the Wildcat is stoppable.

Do you know why the option isn't really utilized in the NFL? One, it's easy to stop if you recognize it quick enough and two, it's an awesome way to get your quarterback hurt. Well the Wildcat is nothing but the option with a fake quarterback and by fake quarterback, I mean Ronnie Brown. If a defense can read what is going to happen and each guy does their job, the Wildcat should be no big deal and if there's any defensive coordinator that can prepare his tough defense to stop an offense like that, it's Mike Zimmer.

So, defensively, I think the Bengals have a good handle on the Wildcat offense, even with the addition of Brandon Marshal, mainly because of Mike Zimmers awesomenessisity. But how will the Bengals offense stand up against a defense that has been pretty tough to score on in the past.

Karlos Dansby should help shore up a defensive unit that struggled last season. Both of Miami's corners, Sean Smith and Vontae Davis, are just entering their sophomore seasons and even though they're good, they probably lack the experience to deal with a Chad Ochocinco and Antonio Bryant on the same field at the same time, let alone Jordan Shipley, Andre Caldwell, Jermaine Gresham or any of the other talented receivers the Bengals will have on their roster this season. If the Bengals offensive line can hold off the Miami pass rush, I think Carson Palmer will pick the Dolphins apart. That's not all though. With the loss of Jason Taylor and Joey Porter and a young defense, Cedric Benson should be able to consistently break into the Dolphin secondary which will open up the passing game even more.

The Game: For years the Pittsburgh Steelers had a firm grasp on the AFC North but I believe that the Pittsburgh dynasty has officially come to an end. No matter what anybody says, the evil shenanigans of Ben Roethlisberger have finally caught up with him and the team. With Roethlisberger riding the pine for the first few games and wide receiver Limas Sweed on injured reserve, the Steelers will likely have to go back to their roots of a power running team. Roethlisberger will be back by the time the Steelers make their way to the Queen City but that doesn’t mean that they will automatically transform into a passing team. Roethlisberger lost his number one receiver this offseason when Santonio Holmes was shipped out for being a bad boy. They did acquire Antwaan Randle El (again) but the Steelers receiving corps has been significantly downgraded from last season. This coupled with a run-first offense when Roethlisberger is suspended should cause the Steelers to try to run on the Bengals. Unfortunately for them, the Bengals have been building a you-can’t-run-on-us defense. 

Defensively, the Steelers should be as good as they usually are. Troy Polamalu should be healthy again and when he’s on the field and healthy, Pittsburgh’s defense seems to be on a different level than most. However, if the Bengals can combine the running game from last season with a revitalized passing game, they would give the Steel Curtain of the ‘70s trouble.

This just doesn’t seem to be the same Steelers team that we had to watch beat up on the rest of the AFC North to me. Maybe it’s the fact that the Bengals and the Ravens got better and the Steelers just don’t look as good as they used to. Maybe the Steelers dynasty left with Bill Cowher. Maybe it’s Karma. Who knows. All I know is that the Bengals shouldn’t be fearing their game against the Pittsburgh Steelers, it’s the Steelers who should be fearing their trip to Cincinnati for their Monday Night Football game in the jungle.

Show Notes:

Gold Star/SugarHill Studios is a Houston-based sound engineering and recording facility that started in 1941 and is still operating today. Over the years its founder and subsequent engineers have produced a multitude of influential hit records and classic tracks for numerous labels in a diverse range of popular genres. The inspiration for today’s program is the book House of Hits: The Story of Houston’s Gold Star/SugarHill Recording Studios written by Andy Bradley and Roger Wood. In addition to the music we also hear an interview that I conducted with Wood a few weeks ago.

Among the hundreds of Gold Star/SugarHill-affiliated artists, a brief sampling includes blues giants (ranging from Lightnin’ Hopkins to Albert Collins to Bobby Bland), country legends (from George Jones to Willie Nelson to Roger Miller), early rockers (from the Big Bopper to Roy Head to Sir Douglas Quintet), seminal figures in Cajun and zydeco (from Harry Choates to Clifton Chenier), architects of R&B (from O. V. Wright to Junior Parker), pioneers of psychedelia (from 13th Floor Elevators to Bubble Puppy), the phenomenal Freddy Fender, song-crafters (from Guy Clark to Lucinda Williams), gospel greats (such as the Mighty Clouds of Joy) up to contemporary pop icons. Today’s program will of course focus on the studio’s blues recordings.

From humble origins as Quinn’s Radio Repair shop around 1940, studio founder Quinn built a recording studio and a record pressing plant, during the latter part of the WWII years. After a year or two of experiments and failures, he succeeded in getting the Gulf label off the ground in 1945, to be followed by the much greater success of the Gold Star label the following year. In 1948 “Lil’ Son” Jackson, became one of many blues singers to record for Gold Star. In 1946, Lil’ Son Jackson shipped off a demo to Bill Quinn, who owned Houston based Gold Star Records. Jackson scored a national R&B hit, “Freedom Train Blues,” in 1948. It would prove Jackson’s only national hit, although his 1950-1954 output for Imperial Records must have sold consistently, judging from how many sides the L.A. firm issued.

Quinn recorded several fine blues artists who’s records are largely forgotten including Conrad Johnson, Henry Hayes, L.C. Williams, Wilson “Thunder” Smith, Leroy Ervin, Perry Cain, and the most famous of the Gold Star blues artists, Lightnin’ Hopkins. While most of these artists are in a down home vein, notable exceptions include by Conrad Johnson’s “Fisherman’s Blues” and Henry Hayes’ “Bowlegged Angeline” performed in an upbeat, fully orchestrated style. I want to thank Roger for send me these tracks which are taken from the original Gold Star 78′s.

Hopkins’ first decade of recording (1946-1956), was a prolific period which found him cutting close to 200 sides geared for the black market on a variety of different labels. Between 1946 and 1950 Hopkins recorded primarily for the L.A. based Aladdin label and the Houston based Gold Star label. Hopkins scored some hits for Gold Star including “Tim Moore’s Farm” which was an R&B hit in 1949, hitting #4 on the charts and the year before he hit with “T-Model Blues” which peaked at #8. Hopkins recorded some 50 sides for the Gold Star label between 1947 and 1950. Even after the Gold Star label went under, Hopkins continued to record at the studio, the results issued on a a number of other labels. Throughout the ’20s and ’30s Hopkins traveled around Texas, usually in the company of recording star Texas Alexander. The pair was playing in Houston’s Third Ward in 1946 when talent scout Lola Anne Cullum came across them. She cut Alexander out of the deal and paired Hopkins with pianist Wilson “Thunder” Smith, getting the duo a recording contract for the Los Angles based Aladdin label. They recorded as “Thunder and Lightnin’”, a nickname Sam was to use for the rest of his life. Thunder Smith plays piano behind Hopkins on his first two sessions for Aladdin in 1946 and 1947, never achieving the success that Hopkins did. Hopkins backed Smith on a four-song session for Aladdin in 1946 with Smith cutting one session apiece in 1947 for Gold Star and in 1948 for Down Town. He reportedly died in Houston in 1965.

The Gold Star label went under in 1951 when the IRS sued for back taxes. Quinn soldiered on, engineering for other labels that rented his studio, most notably Starday, Duke/Peacock, and D, and an endless number of smaller ones. Quinn sold the studio around 1963, and it eventually wound up being purchased by the infamous International Artists label. The label issued a number of notable psychedelic and rock recordings before going under in 1971

Of the Houston-based independent labels, Peacock emerged as the most prominent. Houston businessman Don Robey founded Peacock Records in 1949. Robey expanded his recording interests by acquiring the Memphis label Duke Records. Through this acquisition Robey secured the rights to the stable of musicians who were then under contract to Duke. During the 1950′s, Robey’s Duke-Peacock sound rose to national prominence, but by the mid-1960s, his business started to wane. The authors of House of Hits note that “few if any writers have noted that Robey conducted numerous recording sessions at Gold Star studios.” Among the Duke artists who recorded at Gold Star were Bobby Bland, Junior Parker, Buddy Ace and Ernie K-Doe among others. Duke’s subsidiary label, Back Beat, also saw sessions recorded at Gold Star by artists such as Joe Hinton, O.V. Wright and Roy Head among others.

Bobby Bland cut singles for Chess in 1951 and Modern the next year bombed and in 1952 for Duke. Bland entered the Army in late 1952 and his progress upon his 1955 return was remarkable. By now, Duke was headed by Don Robey, who provided top-flight bands for his artists. Most of Bland’s blues sides during the mid- to late ’50s featured the slashing guitar of Clarence Hollimon. Bland’s first national hit was 1957′s “Farther Up the Road.” Later, Wayne Bennett took over on guitar, his fretwork prominent on Bland’s Duke waxings throughout much of the ’60s. Bland hit the charts often during this period with numbers like “Little Boy Blue”, “Cry Cry Cry”, “I Pity The Fool”and “Turn On Your Love Light” to name a few.

Junior Parker was an extraordinary blues singer and harmonica player who laid down some superb material over the course of a twenty-year career (1952-1971) before his life was cut short just prior to his fortieth birthday. Before 1953 was through, Junior Parker had moved on to Don Robey’s Duke label in Houston. It took a while for the harpist to regain his hitmaking momentum, but he scored big in 1957 with the “Next Time You See Me.” Parker developed a horn driven sound (usually the work of trumpeter/Duke-house-bandleader Joe Scott) that added power to his vocals and harp solos. Parker’s updated remake of Roosevelt Sykes’s “Driving Wheel” was a huge R&B hit in 1961, as was “In the Dark.” Parker continued to hit the charts through the 60’s with a mix of blues and R&B scoring with songs like “Sweet Home Chicago”, “Annie Get Your Yo-Yo”, “Man Or Mouse”, “Someone Somewhere.”

As the authors note, “a few of the hit records made at Gold Star studios by artists linked to Robey ended up being released on labels that he did not control. A prime example of that seemingly unlikely scenario is the song “Think”, written and performed by Jimmy McCracklin. Released in 1965 on the California based Imperial Records, it went to number seven on the R&B charts and number ninety-five in the pop category. …”Think” was actually recorded independently by McCracklin in Houston, where he made use of both Robey’s in-house studio on Erastus Street and the Gold Star facility across town.”

Concurrent with the growth of Peacock Records, a new generation of Houston-bred rhythm-and-blues musicians began their careers, but were not recorded by Don Robey. Houston was homebase to a remarkable cadre of blues guitarists during the 1950’. These musicians included Albert Collins, Johnny Copeland, Joe Hughes, Clarence Green and Pete Mayes. Playing at the Club Matinee, Shady’s Playhouse, the Eldorado Ballroom, and other nightspots around Houston, these musicians emulated the music of T-Bone Walker and eventually developed their own distinctive performance styles.

Joe Hughes crossed paths with Johnny Copeland’s circa 1953 when the two shared vocal and guitar duties in a combo called the Dukes of Rhythm. Hughes served as bandleader at a local blues joint known as Shady’s Playhouse from 1958 through 1963, cutting a few scattered singles of his own in his spare time. In 1963, Hughes hit the road with the Upsetters, switching to the employ of Bobby “Blue” Bland in 1965. He also recorded behind the Bland for Duke and Al “TNT” Braggs from 1967 to 1969. Hughes cut the numbers “I Can’t Go On This Way” b/w “Make Me Dance Little Ant” at Gold Star for the tiny Kangaroo label. The label was formed in the late 50′s by the above mentioned Henry Hayes with label doing their recording at Gold Star.

In addition to Hughes, Albert Collins also made his debut for Kangaroo. Collins started out taking keyboard lessons but by the time he was 18 years old, he switched to guitar, and hung out and heard his heroes, Clarence “Gatemouth” Brown, T-Bone Walker and Lightnin’ Hopkins in Houston-area nightclubs. Collins soon began performing in these same clubs. He led a ten-piece band, the Rhythm Rockers, and cut his first single in 1958 , “The Freeze” b/w “Collins Shuffle.” “The Freeze” became a regional hit and went on to serve as Collins’ signature song throughout his career. Collins returned to Gold Star in April 1965 for at least two sessions. The same year Collins’ first album was released, The Cool Sounds of Albert Collins, a collection of singles (the album was reissued later as Truckin’ With Albert Collins). To fill out the album at least three new numbers were recorded at Gold Star including our selection “Snow-Cone II.”

Clarence Green was a versatile guitarist and a stalwart of the Houston scene who fronted a number of popular bands, the most famous being the Rhythmaires, between the early 1950′s and his death. He started out around 1951 or 1952 in a group that called itself Blues For Two. Throughout the next decade the band’s personnel changed often; some of the more well-known members, at various times, included fellow guitarists Johnny Copeland and Joe Hughes. Green also did regular session work as a guitarist at various studios, the most notable being Duke Records, where he backed artists such as Bobby Bland, Joe Hinton, and Junior Parker. Green cut two singles for Duke at Gold Star in 1965 and 1966.

In 1964 Lightnin’ Hopkins took Chris Strachwitz to see his cousin, Clifton Chenier perform. Strachwitz agreed to record Chenier and they went to Gold Star in February to record. The session resulted in the first 45 for Strachwitz’s new label, Arhoolie and the following year he recorded a whole album of material. The session yielded the album Louisiana Blues and Zydeco with many of the songs also issued as 45’s.

Record hustler Huey P. Meaux, who had recorded the Sir Douglas Quintet’s “She’s About a Mover” at Gold Star in ’65, bought and refurbishing the studio in 1972, naming the studio SugarHill. SugarHill became Meaux’s home base for his Crazy Cajun Music label where careers of Texas legends Freddy Fender, Doug Sahm and many more were launched...

Have you ever wondered how much Jeff Backus gets paid to pad the opposing teams sack total? Or how much your favorite player makes? Or who the highest and lowest paid player on the team is? Well you are about to find out, but lets cover a few things first.

Once the NFL owners opted out of the current collective bargaining agreement (CBA), that immediately meant two things. First off, there is no salary cap in 2010. Second, there will be no football after 2010 if a new CBA isn't reached.

As of right now a new CBA has not been agreed upon and that does mean that a potential lockout is looming for 2011, but that is a totally different topic of discussion.

It's no secret the Lions have been spending money this season. Just the additions of high profile free agents Kyle Vanden Bosch and Nate Burleson alone coast the Lions a total of $51 million dollars over the next five years.

I have carefully researched the Lions salary cap for 2010. The complexity of an NFL salary cap is extremely hard to explain, and there are many different factors that come to play in a players total salary number. For instance, each player has a base salary and a singing bonus. But some players also have other various bonuses in their contracts, most commonly for workouts and player stat incentives.

An example of an "incentive based contract" would be the deal that Mike Vick got with the Eagles last year. Michael Vick signed a two year deal that guaranteed him $1.6 million in 2009, and $5.2 million this season. He also has certain incentives written in that could add an additional $3 million over those two years, but that money isn't guaranteed.

Incentives are different for each contract. In Vick's case, since he's a quarterback, maybe he has a clause that stipulates if he throws 15 touchdown passes he gets a certain dollar amount, or "incentive",  for reaching that mark.

In this article I'm only going to be listing each players total dollar amount they are set to earn in 2010, based on their base salary and signing bonuses. So if a player does have incentives written into their contract, and I know for a fact some of them do, the total could actually end up being higher that I have written in here.

I'll start with the offensive players and break it down by position form there.

All of the players salaries combined comes out to roughly $127,615,021 on the books for 2010. That is actually just under last years $128 million doallar salary cap.

Of course that number will get much smaller once they cut they roster size down to 53 players, which is the most amount of players any team can have on their active roster during the regular season. But the important thing to remember is that neither Ndamukong Suh or Jahvid Best has been signed yet.

While both rookies are expected to be signed before training camp, which begins July 30, Ndamukong's deal will be much harder to get done.

After being the second overall pick in this years NFL draft, Suh is guaranteed a huge rookie contract. It's not unfathomable to think he may make above $14 million this year.

Okay, so now that you can see roughly what each player will make this year, I'm going to throw out some fun facts.

Daniel Bullocks would have made $1,176,000 this season with the Lions, but he was released on July 8th

If Matthew Stafford throws 20 touchdowns this year, he will make roughly $649,000 per touchdown.

If Calvin Johnson ends the season with 85 catches, he will have made just over $17,846 per catch.

If Kevin Smith is able to rush for 500 yards, now that he has some legit competition for playing time with rookie Jahvid Best, he will earn roughly $1,373 per yard

For the record, I'd be willing to strap a helmet on and go out there, get the ball, and fall over forward for a thousand bucks!

If Julian Peterson has 100 tackles, that comes out to $75,000 per tackle. But if DeAndre Levy manages to rack up 100 tackles, provided he doens't have an incentive that kicks in at that point, he will have only made about $5,986 per tackle.

If Jeff Backus allows nine sacks, again, (sorry I couldn't resist) the Lions will pay him around $974,797 for each time. I'm more than happy to let people run right by me for half that.

If Kyle Vanden Bosch only manages to accumulate five sacks this season, he will be paid $200,000 per sack.

If Dre' Bly matches his total interception number form last year, which is just three, he will make about $376,667 per interception.

So there you have it, now you know how much money to yell at a player when you start screaming at the TV "you're not worth what they pay you", every time they make a bad play.

Remember these are not the final dollar amounts for each player, it's just their base salary combined with their roster bonus, no incentives where added in.

Bruce Bochy isn't the worst manager in San Francisco Giants history.

That designation is reserved for a man most modern day fans have never heard of, who was scouting for the club when a mid-season manager's change suddenly put him in control.

Where Bochy ranks among the best to manage the Giants in San Francisco is open for debate.

Here's a look at how the skippers who've called the shots at Seals Stadium, Candlestick Park and AT&T Park rank:


16. Tom Sheehan (1960)—He was a former big league pitcher who had last coached in 1944 when owner Horace Stoneham gave Sheehan the call to take over a club that was floundering. Sheehan had been a big league scout before returning to uniform and became the oldest man to make his big league managing debut at 66. The Giants stumbled home 46-50 and Sheehan was replaced before the 1961 season.

15. Jim Davenport (1985)—One of the great all-time Giants players, the former third baseman had spent his entire career with the organization when he was tabbed to run the club entering the 1985 season. Aside from using the word "certainly" a million different way, most incorrectly, during interviews—Davenport was a forgettable manager. The Giants were 56-88 late in '85 when he was fired.

But, Davy was certainly one of the most gifted defensive third basemen certainly in the, um, history of the Giants certainly...

14. Danny Ozark (1984)—The pennant-winning Philadelphia Phillies manager too over from Frank Robinson and piloted the club to a 24-32 mark. Bad as it seemed, the club might've wished it had stuck with Ozark. He was replaced by Davenport in the middle of one of lowest points in San Francisco Giants history.

13. Dave Bristol (1979-80)—This is a guy fans calling for Bochy to turn over the food table and raise hell in the dugout should wish could take over this year's club. Bristol had managed three other big league teams to limited success. He was, however, an old-school tough guy.

It's worth noting, for those who want Bochy to throw a fit to inspire the boys, that Bristol got into a fistfight with star pitcher John Montefusco and gave "The Count" a black eye. Bristol proceeded to go 85-98 with the Giants. So much for lashing out leading to victories.

12. Wes Westrum (1974-75)—Westrum was the starting catcher for the New York Giants 1951 NL champions and the 1954 world champions. He was only the second manager in the history of the New York Mets, replacing Casey Stengel in 1965 to run one of the worst teams in big league history. He returned to lead his old club that  His 1975 team finished a stunning 80-81—wildly over-achieving with Montefusco becoming a surprise star and Bobby Murcer hating every minute he spent in San Francisco after being traded from the New York Yankees for Bobby Bonds.

11. Clyde King (1969-70)—The former big league pitcher was the Pittsburgh Pirates pitching coach when he landed what was a prime gig leading the Giants at the end of the Mays, McCovey, Marichal era. He went 90-72 in 1969. Then, ownership showed what panic will do by firing King after a 19-23 start and turning the club over to Charlie Fox, who proceeded to let the aging but gifted team get into gear and finish 67-53.

10. Bill Rigney (1958-60, 1976)—Led the original San Francisco Giants to third-place finishes in 1958 and 1959. (Those were great teams!) For reasons unknown he was fired in 1960 with a 33-25 mark. The reigns were handed to ...Sheehan. Yes, the worst manager in Giants history took over a team eight games over .500. Rigney was a baseball man to the core, did some broadcasting, told great stories and didn't know when to say "no." He returned to manage a horrendous group of Giants to a 74-88 mark, drawing 626,868 fans to Candlestick, in 1976.

9. Felipe Alou (2004-06)—His first two Giants teams were a combined 191-132. The first-round playoff loss to the Florida Marlins in 2004, along with the inability to get along with reliever Joe Nathan hurt Alou's legacy. Nathan was traded to the Twins in, arguably, the worst deal in modern club history. Alou's final two teams finished well under .500. He starred for the club from 1958-1963, but is sadly remembered by younger folks for sounding as though he was somehow managing to do the "Felipe Alou Show" half asleep before every game on KNBR.

8. Bruce Bochy (2007-present)—Fans will look back on Bochy's tenure and realize he got a lot out of very limited teams that had good pitching and little else.

7. Joe Altobelli (1977-79)—Altobelli waited a long time hoping to get the Baltimore Orioles job, but wound up being hired by the Giants. After going 77-85 in 1977, he led the club to a thrilling third-place finish in 1978. An offense led by 22-year-old Jack Clark, 40-year-old Willie McCovey and former NL batting champion Bill Madlock finished 89-73 after Vida Blue was dealt from the Oakland A's to go 18-11 and inspire more 1,700,000 fans who flocked to the 'Stick.

6. Alvin Dark (1961-1964)—He managed the Giants to the 1962 NL championship, after starring at shortstop for the 1950s New York Giants. Dark managed the Giants in their golden era—Mays, McCovey, Cepeda, Marichal, Gaylord Perry, the Alou brothers and a young Jim Ray Hart starred. His tenure went up in smoke because he insisted that the club's many Latin players not speak in their native tongue while in uniform. He also refused to rest Mays, who twice collapsed from exhaustion in the dugout.

5. Frank Robinson (1981-1984)—Anyone who follows Duane Kuiper and Mike Krukow on Comcast Cable TV games knows that Robinson was a tough guy, a former superstar who became the first black manager in big league history. His 1982 Giants, a motley crew at best, finished 87-75 and provided an exciting summer. Robinson knew something. He won with a starting rotation that included Bill Laskey, Atlee Hammaker, Rich Gale, Fred Breining and Alan Fowlkes. Robby effectively used Greg Minton in the still evolving closer's role. "The Moon Man" earned 30 saves in '82.

4. Charlie Fox (1970-1974)—The Giants won the NL West in 1971—giving Mays, McCovey, Marichal and Perry the spotlight together one last time. The 1973 club also finished over .500. It wasn't the fault of Fox that his superstars got old together—or that somebody thought trading Gaylord Perry for erratic left-hander Sam McDowell made sense. While it was overlooked in the NL West title season of '71, Fox hung around long enough to suffer the decision to trade future MVP George Foster to Cincinnati for shortstop Frank Duffy and pitcher Vern Geishert.

3. Herman Franks (1965-68)—After answering a question I mailed to the "Herman Franks Show" in 1966, this skipper won a special place in Giants history. For the record, he explained that the Giants likely weren't really considering trading Mays for Mickey Mantle. Franks made Dark look foolish by leading the club to seasons of 95 wins, 93 wins, 91 wins and 88 wins respectively. He helped tear the hearts out of Giants fans everywhere when each team finished second—the first two seasons right on the heels of the rival Los Angeles Dodgers and the last two behind the St. Louis Cardinals.

Note: Franks had to try to beat a Cardinals team led by NL MVP Orlando Cepeda, who the Giants had deal for lefty Ray Sadecki in the middle of Franks' tenure.

2. Dusty Baker (1993-2002)—Baker will be remembered for one thing and fans everywhere know what it was. Game Six of the 2002 World Series and the Giants are nursing a comfortable lead behind starter Russ Ortiz. With millions of Giants fans tearing at their skin and screaming, "Don't do it," Baker pulled Ortiz, gave him the game ball as he left the mound and turned the game over to his overworked, but brilliant bullpen. Tim Worrell, Felix Rodriguez and Rob Nen looked mostly overworked. The Angels rallied to win, then won Game Seven. But, really, Baker did do great things while managing the Giants.

1. Roger Craig (1985-1992)—"Humm Baby" was the last old-school, scratch n' spit genius to run the Giants. Craig's 1987 team won 90 games and the 1989 club won 92. They were sandwiched around teams that finished over .500. He handled pitchers magnificently and was a wildly creative offensive tactician for a former big league pitcher who enjoyed marginal success in a long career. Craig oversaw the debut of stars like Will Clark, Robbie Thompson and Matt Williams.

Craig managed guys who'd been trouble elsewhere—Jeff Leonard and Kevin Mitchell—to their finest season. In fairness, Craig was part of a tag team with crafty general manager Al Rosen. Rosen was the last wheeler-dealer to be in charge before the GM job became overrun by talk of Type A free agents, arbitration clocks, etc.

The Associated Press reported today that retired Detroit Red Wings and Chicago Blackhawks forward Bob Probert died after experiencing chest pains while boating with his family in Windsor, Ontario.

Probert was a fan favorite with both Detroit and Chicago. His style of play was a throwback to a previous era where players were considerably tougher than they are today.

Probert was not considered a goon because he would often display better than average offensive productivity. Fellow combatant Wendell Clark told the Canadian Press : "Bob was a guy that started as a strictly tough guy but made himself a player."

Detroit fans were always big supporters of Probert, even after it was disclosed that he had some early drug and alcohol problems. He was charged several times with driving under the influence while playing for Detroit. He also was caught trying to transport cocaine from Canada into the U.S. in 1989 and served a six-month federal prison sentence. Despite his off-ice problems, Probert was often the victor in on-ice battles with major league heavyweights such as Donald Brashear, Wendell Clark, Ty Domi and George Larocque, as well many other known NHL pugilists.

Probert was well-known for his fistic skills, but was also a opportunistic goal-scorer when the situation presented itself. He was not one to shy away from any battle and often kept opposing players honest and reluctant to display unnecessary roughness against his teammates.

"Probert played for the Red Wings in 1985-1994 and for the Blackhawks in 1995-2002,” said the Associated Press article.

Red Wings owners Mike and Marian Ilitch said in a statement: "Bob was always there for his teammates and was one of the toughest men to ever play in the NHL. He also was one of the kindest, most colorful, and beloved players Detroit has ever known."

The Windsor, Ontario native had 384 points (163 goals, 221 assists) in 935 career regular-season games with Detroit and Chicago. His 3,300 career penalty minutes rank sixth in NHL history.

Probert is the second former Red Wing to pass away unexpectedly. Retired defenseman Willie Huber died less than three weeks ago from similar complications.

*First - An Interesting Story*

At my workplace, we deal frequently with cab drivers.  One of these drivers, named Mickey (now deceased), told stories about when he used to bartend at the Red Lion Inn in San Diego during the 1960s.  This was a popular hangout for Chargers' players and coaches at the time.  He said that Al Davis, then Sid Gillman's receivers coach, used to check the tips that the players would leave behind, and would pocket the extra money if he thought the players left too much. 

He also spoke about coaches meetings that lasted late into the night.  Gillman and Chuck Noll from the Chargers, talking shop with Don Coryell and John Madden from San Diego State.  Obviously, Mickey couldn't remember specifics on the conversations, but it makes you wonder... how much of modern professional football was started in that bar?

More below the jump...

The Idiotic Argument

The argument against Don Coryell is easy to make.  He only won 111 games against 83 losses as an NFL Head Coach (though he is still the only person with over 100 victories in both college and the NFL).  He never won a Super Bowl.  The Chargers never played defense under Coryell.

It's also completely wrong.

Don Coryell, a member of the Holy Trinity of modern offensive coaches (along with Sid Gillman and Bill Walsh), has more than earned his place in the Hall of Fame.  While his on-field credentials look suspect upon initial review, they mask a legacy of offensive genius that revolutionized the NFL, a revolution that has produced NFL champions, rewrote the offensive and defensive playbooks of every team in the league, and continues to validate his legacy even today.

The Hidden Ingredient Behind "Student Body Right."

It's not talked about much today, but Coryell was a running coach early in his career.  While at Whittier College (1957-1959), he developed the I-formation as a means for featuring outstanding running backs.  He spent 1 year as an assistant under John McKay at USC before moving on to San Diego State.  Consider, in the years after Coryell took the I-formation to USC, how many Heisman-winning RBs were produced under McKay and later, John Robinson: Mike Garrett, O.J. Simpson, Charles White, and Marcus Allen.  The list of great USC runners without a Heisman from that era would also include Ricky Bell and Anthony Davis.

San Diego State re-invents the college game

Don Coryell arrived at San Diego State in 1961, inheriting a floundering program.  By the time he left following 1972, he compiled a career record 104-19-2, riding the arms of QBs such as Brian Sipe, Rod Dowhower, Jesse Freitas, Don Horn and Dennis Shaw.  He demonstrated a gift for identifying young coaching talent - future Super Bowl champion head coaches John Madden and Joe Gibbs were on his staff, not to mention future great offensive coaches like Ernie Zampese and Jim Hanifan.

The Proto-Modern Offense in St. Louis

Coryell went to the moribund St. Louis Cardinals in 1973.  By the time he left in 1977, he had not only delivered 2 Division Titles (in the midst of Landry-Staubach dynasty in Dallas, no less), but behind QB Jim Hart, RB Jim Otis, WR/RB Terry Metcalf, WR Mel Gray, TE Jackie Smith, and OLs Dan Dierdorf and Conrad Dobler, he showed the NFL the shape of things to come.  The Cardinals were top-10 in both scoring and yardage from 1974-1976.  Coryell is still the winningest Head Coach in Cardinals history.

Air Coryell

Following his mid-season hiring in 1978 by the San Diego Chargers, Coryell proceeded to literally change the NFL. It has been stated ad nauseam that the Chargers led the league in passing from 1979-1983.  Below are some notable year-by-year accomplishments from their heyday of 1979-1981:

1979

The Chargers finish with a 12-4 record, 1st in the AFC West and #1 in the AFC.  They scored 411 points (#2 offense in the league) against 246 points allowed (#1 defense in the league).

Dan Fouts sets NFL passing yardage record with 4,082 yards, 24 TDs and 24 INTs.  He becomes the 2nd player in NFL history to throw for 4,000 yards in a season (Joe Namath).

The Chargers played both Super Bowl participants that season, and outscored them by a combined 75-23 margin (35-7 vs. Steelers, 40-16 vs. Rams).

WRs Charlie Joiner and John Jefferson finish with a combined 133 receptions, 2098 yards, and 14 TDs.  Jefferson averages 17.6 yards per catch, Joiner 14.0

1980

The Chargers finish with an 11-5 record, 1st in the AFC West and #1 in the AFC.  They scored 418 points (#2) against 327 points (#18), but lead the league with 60 QB sacks.

Dan Fouts breaks his single season passing record with 4,715 yards, 30 TDs and 24 INTs.  He averages 8 yards per pass attempt.

WRs Charlie Joiner, John Jefferson, and TE Kellen Winslow combine for 240 receptions, 3762 yards, and 26 TDs.  All three of these receivers average over 14 yards per completion.  It's the 1st time in NFL history that 2 receivers and a TE all surpass 1,000 yards receiving.

1981

The Chargers finish with a 10-6 record, 1st in the AFC West and #3 in the AFC.  They scored 478 points (#1) against 390 points (#26).

Dan Fouts breaks his single season passing record again with 4,802 yards, 33 TDs and 17 INTs.  He becomes the 1st QB in NFL history to average 300 yards passing per game.

WRs Charlie Joiner, Wes Chandler, and TE Kellen Winslow combine for 210 receptions, 3,120 yards, and 22 TDs.

RB Chuck Muncie runs for 1,144 yards on 251 carries and scored 19 rushing TDs.

This is the postseason of the epic 41-38 playoff victory over the Miami Dolphins in the Orange Bowl, widely regarded as the greatest game in NFL history.

Coryell would return the Chargers to the postseason in the strike-shortened 1982 season, where Fouts would set one more record - averaging 320.3 yards passing per game over 9 games.  If this was stretched out to 16 games, Fouts would have become the NFL's 1st 5,000 yard passer at 5,124 yards - this would still be an NFL record today. 

Only 4 quarterbacks have bettered Fouts' 4,802 yard passing season in 1981: Dan Marino, Drew Brees (2008), Kurt Warner (1999), and Tom Brady (2007).  Of those 4, only Marino's 5,084 yards came in the same timeframe (1984), and as noted below, Warner's numbers were produced in the Coryell offense.

Coryell's Legacy...

Offensive Coordinator Joe Gibbs took the Coryell offense to Washington, and he produced 3 Super Bowls from 1981-1992.  In their lone Super Bowl loss, the Redskins produced the highest scoring NFL offense until 1998, with 541 points.  It should also be noted that Gibbs won his Super Bowls with 3 different starting QBs (Joe Theismann, Doug Williams, and Mark Rypien).  Other notable players included WR Art Monk, RB Joe Washington, WR Ricky Sanders, WR Gark Clark, TE Clint Didier, RB John Riggins, and "The Hogs" (Mark May, Russ Grimm, and Jim Lachey, among others).

Gibbs' successor, Ernie Zampese, took this system with him to the Los Angeles Rams.  In addition to making stars of QB Jim Everett, WRs Flipper Anderson and Henry Ellard, he also produced a young offensive assistant named Norv Turner.  Zampese later went to New England, and helped QB Drew Bledsoe, WRs Shawn Jefferson, Terry Glenn, TE Ben Coates, and RB Curtis Martin post huge numbers.

Turner took the Coryell offense to Dallas, which won 3 Super Bowls in 4 seasons, helping to make QB Troy Aikman, RB Emmitt Smith, and WR Michael Irvin Hall-of-Fame players.  This list of other contributors would include TE Jay Novacek, FB Daryl Johnston, WR Alvin Harper, WR Kelvin Martin, and OLs Mark Tuinei, Erik Williams, and Nate Newton.

Hanifan and later Coryell assistant Al Saunders, along with young offensive coordinator Mike Martz, took the Coryell offense to St. Louis, and produced "The Greatest Show on Turf" winning a Super Bowl in 2 trips from 1999-2001.  The players included QB Kurt Warner, WRs Isaac Bruce, Torry Holt, Az Hakim, Ricky Proehl, RB Marshall Faulk, and OL Orlando Pace.

Sanders took the Coryell Offense to Kansas City in 2001-2006, producing a strong offense with the help of QB Trent Green, TE Tony Gonzalez, RBs Priest Holmes and Larry Johnson, and OLs Willie Roaf, Brian Waters, and Will Shields.

Cam Cameron (Turner's QB coach in Washington), after arriving in Baltimore in 2008, has helped develop QB Joe Flacco and RB Ray Rice into the core of Baltimore's future on offense.

In 2009, the NFL saw 10 QBs throw for at least 4,000 yards.  Until 1983, it had only been done 5 times (3 of them were Dan Fouts, the others were Namath and... Brian Sipe).

Don't Fix What's Not Broken (I mean you, Kevin Gilbride).

The Chargers kept the Coryell offense through 1996, making productive players out of QB Stan Humphries, RBs Marion Butts and Natrone Means, WR/RB Ronnie Harmon, WRs Anthony Miller and Tony Martin, and OL Courtney Hall. These were the key offensive playmakers that got the Chargers to their only Super Bowl appearance.

The Chargers brought the Coryell offense back to San Diego in 2001, and under the tutelage of Cam Cameron  and Norv Turner, have made stars of LaDainian Tomlinson, Drew Brees, Antonio Gates, Philip Rivers, Vincent Jackson, Marcus McNeill, Kris Dielman, and Darrren Sproles.

This may be the lasting legacy of Coryell's genius.  Compare players from the 1981 San Diego Chargers to their counterparts from the 2009 San Diego Chargers.  Some of the similarities are striking:

QBs	Comp.	Att.	Pct.	Yards	TD	INT	Yds/Attempt
Fouts (1981)	360	609	59.1	4802	33	17	7.9
Rivers (2009)	317	486	65.2	4254	28	9	8.8
WRs	Rec.	Yds.	TD	Yds/Rec
Joiner (1981)	70	1188	7	17.0
Jackson (2009)	68	1167	9	17.2
Chandler (1981)	52	857	5	16.5
Floyd (2009)	45	776	1	17.2
TEs	Rec.	Yds.	TD	Yds/Rec
Winslow (1981)	88	1075	10	12.2
Gates (2009)	79	1157	8	14.6

 

Just to recap - Don Coryell created an offense that has:

• Produced 7 Super Bowl victories in 9 appearances.
• Created many of the greatest offenses and statistical seasons in NFL History, not mention a few current and several future Hall-of-Famers.
• (Along with the Walsh offense) Forced numerous defensive changes, including free substitution - leading to the nickel and dime defenses, Buddy Ryan's blitzing "46", the Parcells / Belichick 3-4 defenses of the mid-late 80s, the Capers / LeBeau zone blitz, and Dungy's Tampa 2.
• Continued to be effective more than 30 years after it was introduced to the NFL.

Now, explain to me that Don Coryell doesn't deserve the Hall of Fame with a straight face?

If you even make the attempt, you just don't know football.

Back in February I was thrilled to learn that the fourth season of the 1992-99 sitcom, Mad About You, was finally going to be released on DVD by the fabulous folks at Shout! Factory, who acquired the rights to the series. I think my partner and I watched all 164 episodes of this show - even after the baby showed up at the end of the fifth season. We just loved the on-screen chemistry between Paul Reiser and Helen Hunt, who always made us laugh and see ourselves in their characters, Paul and Jamie Buchman. They were a great comedic duo. However, during the sitcom's fourth season - which is available on DVD today - the happy couple went through a brief period of trouble in their marriage as the pressure to conceive a child as well as their separate jobs caused them to slowly drift apart. The 24 episodes are still filled with plenty of laughs, but there is definitely a darker edge to the show - especially as the season comes to an end. Below I've selected 10 of my favorite episodes on the DVD, which, of course, I highly recommend for any fan of the series.

1) "New Sleep Walking Plus" (Original Air Date: September 24, 1995)
How can you not like a show that begins with Jamie singing Barry Manilow's 1978 song, "Copacabana", in the bathroom? It's that kind of pop culture kitsch that made Mad About You so much fun. Also, this episode sets up the season-long theme of the Buchmans trying to have a baby.



2) "The Parking Space" (October 1, 1995)
Paul decides he wants to buy a parking space in their building, even though he and Jamie do not own a car. He also makes an amusing theatrical reference to the "two crappy songs at the beginning of Act 2" of the 1960 Broadway musical, Camelot.

3) "The Good, The Bad & The Not So Appealing" (October 29, 1995)
The complicated relationship between Jamie and her mother-in-law, Sylvia (played by the wonderful Cynthia Harris) is explored in this episode as she wants to tell Paul's mother that they're trying to have a baby.

4) "Yoko Said" (November 12, 1995)
One of the Bonus Features on the DVD are some informative interviews with Paul Reiser and Helen Hunt, who discuss select episodes with NYU Professor Richard Brown (they were originally included on the 2005 DVD box set, The Mad About You Collection). This episode has a very funny Yoko Ono asking Paul to film the wind for his job with the Explorer Channel.



5) "The Couple" (November 26, 1995)
Paul and Jamie become friends with another couple they meet at the dog park (their beloved pet, Murray, was one of the best supporting characters on the show) - and they invite them to go see Carol Channing in Hello, Dolly!

6) "New Year's Eve" (December 17, 1995)
Comedian Kathy Griffin appears as Brenda, a rude salesgirl who works for Jamie's sister, Lisa (played by the delightful Anne Ramsay), at Klarik's Department Store. It's a bit shocking to see Griffin back in her pre-plastic surgery/Suddenly Susan days - she's certainly come a long way since then. Willie Garson (Sex and the City's Stanford Blatch) also shows up as Lisa's friend Randall as does American Bandstand's Dick Clark. The episode centers around New Year's Eve 1995, but one of my favorite kitschy moments is when Paul discovers an old Stefanie Powers Fan Club card in his wallet.



7) "Ovulation Day" (January 7, 1996)
This is one of the best episodes of the entire series as Paul and Jamie's attempt to make love during her "Ovulation Day" is interrupted by his parents and sister, Deb, who announces to everyone that she's a lesbian and in love with a woman. Mad About You had such a terrific cast of supporting characters, and Louis Zorich (Burt) and Robin Bartlett (Deb) were both outstanding in their roles. I also must mention the fabulous Judy Geeson, who played the Buchmans' snobby British neighbor - she's great in this episode.



8) "Dream Weaver" (February 4, 1996)
Paul and Jamie are both suffering from extremely weird dreams, and former Laugh-In stars Henry Gibson, Arte Johnson, Gary Owens and Jo Anne Worley all show up for a groovy "sock it to me" dance scene in this hilarious episode.



9) "The Sample" (March 31, 1996)
Future Everybody Loves Raymond star Brad Garrett delivers a nice turn as a nurse as Paul has to produce a sperm sample at the hospital. Meanwhile, Lisa reveals that her boss's young son - and the heir to the $400 million Klarik fortune - wants to marry her.

10) "The Finale" (May 5 & 19, 1996)
This emotional three-part season finale finds Jamie sharing an unexpected kiss with a co-worker and Paul confessing that he went for a walk with a beautiful woman (in a previous episode). It looks like the Buchmans might be on the verge of breaking up over their marital problems, and Ed Asner appears as Ziggy Klarik, Lisa's future father-in-law. The DVD includes interviews with Paul Reiser and Helen Hunt about this season finale and the catchy theme song. I also enjoyed watching the Bonus Feature of 18 TV commercials for the series that aired during its seven seasons.

Here we go Lions fans, the season is inching closer. Mini camp begins this week, and training camp is right around the corner. Then preseason starts, and before you know it the regular season is here.

For those who aren't keeping close tabs, the Lions will play their first pre-season game  August 14, against the Steelers in Pittsburgh.

Detroit kicks off the regular season in Chicago against the Bears, September 12.

So with mini camp upon us, and training camp nearing, I thought now would be a good time to analyze the top position battles heading into camp.

Please don't confuse this article with my "Predicting the Lions 53 Man Roster" series, in which I have already completed round one and two. I will continue to update those predictions both after mini camp and training camp. And then again after each Pre-season game, right up until the final cuts are made. So stay tuned and look for those!

As of right now there are several positions up for grabs, some even in the starting rotation. Competition will certainly be fierce, and in this case that's probably a good thing. For the most part, a little healthy competition never hurt anybody.

Here is my official list of the top five Detroit Lions position battles this off-season.

5.) Who will be the fourth and fifth wide receivers?

While Calvin Johnson and Nate Burleson are the obvious starters, barring injury, there are some serious question marks after that.

It's hard to believe that Dennis Northcutt won't eventually be released at some point before the regular season. His salary is simply to high for a guy who drops a lot of balls, and who didn't make an impact last season. Plus the Lions have several young receivers (who by the way are cheaper) that could be developed into quality players over the next few years.

A lot of people also believe that veteran Bryant Johnson will be cut this year as well. I actually highly doubt that both Johnson and Northcutt get released, and therefore I imagine Bryant will be the third receiver this season. I also think that is a role much more suited for him, and he'll likely have a larger impact than last season.

So if Calvin Johnson, Nate Burleson, and Bryant Johnson are the top three receivers, who comes after them?

Other receivers currently on the roster include: Derrick Williams, Marko Mitchel, Tim Toone, Mike Morre, Brian Clark, and Eric Fowler. Assuming the Lions carry five receivers on their active roster this year, which two of those players will make the team?

At this point, my bet is on Derrick Williams, and Marko Mitchel.

Either way, it will be an interesting position to watch throughout the rest of the off-season and into the pre-season.

4.) Who will be the starting left end?

Without a doubt the Lions have created one of the best defensive lines in the NFL, at least on paper anyways.

Trading for defensive tackle Corey Williams, signing free agent defensive end Kyle Vanden Bosch, and drafting the top defensive tackle (and arguably the top player in the entire draft) Ndamukong Suh, has given the Lions a complete overhaul on their defensive front.

But there is still questions as to who will start at the left end of the line, and plenty of players are currently in the mix.

Players fighting for the starting spot include: Cliff Avril, Jason Hunter, Turk McBride, Jared Devries, Copeland Bryan, and Willie Young, Jr.

Out of those players Avril, Hunter, and Devries are the ones most likely to secure the spot. But out of those three who is leading the competition?

Many people believe that Jared Devries will end up be the starter, but personally I don't agree.

I actually believe the battle will ultimately be between Avril and Hunter. And regardless of who starts, both will see plenty of playing time this year.

3.) Will Zack Follett replace Ernie Sims?

This is definitely one of the biggest questions, and rightfully so. A lot of people were shocked when the Lions traded Sims, one of their starting outside linebackers, without having a clear replacement on the roster.

They may end up signing free agent Keith Bulluck, who has ties to Lions head coach Jim Schwartz from their days in Tennessee together, but that is still just speculation at this point.

For now, Follett is the man. He's making the most of every chance he gets, and he has the coaches on his side.

However, until he's officially named the starter for the regular season, guys will be competing with him vigorously for that starting spot. Those players include: Jordan Dizon, Landon Johnson, Caleb Campbell, Ashley Palmer, and Vinny Cirucci.

2.) Who will play safety opposite Louis Delmas?

Delmas is a star in the making, no doubt about it. He was the lone bright spot in the secondary last year, the worst secondary in the league mind you, and he's gearing up for a big sophomore season.

The problem is that the Lions don't really have a second legitimate starting safety on their roster. They have a lot of players fighting for that spot, but no one that really jumps out at you.

Here's a list of players the Lions currently have battling for the second safety position: C.C. Brown, Ko Simpson, Marquand Manuel, Marvin White, and Daniel Bullocks.

What makes this particular battle very interesting is that all of these players have starting experience. Some more than others, but starting experience nonetheless.

At the moment it appears that Brown and Manuel are the favorites, but that could change as Bullocks and Simpson continue to recover from serious knee injuries, and see more playing time.

Keep a close eye on this one!

 

And the top position battle is...

 

1.) Which two players will start at corner, and who will start at the nickle positon?

Well now that we've established that the Lions had the worst secondary in the NFL last season, and that one safety position is up for competition, lets talk about the cornerbacks.

To sum it up simply, none of the players who started last year are returning this season. Maybe that isn't such a bad thing!

Detroit traded with Atlanta for fourth year corner Chris Houston. He's the only expected starter at this point.

The Lions also signed free agents Jonathan Wade, Donte Wesley, and undrafted free agent Aaron Barry. They also drafted Amari Spievey with the second pick in the third round of this years NFL draft.

Eric King and Jack Williams are also both retuning from injuries that landed them on IR last season.

As of right now, Wade and Spievey appear to be the favorites to start next to Houston, but King is making a serious case for himself as well.

Watch this positon battle closely. I don't expect a second starter to be named until the third or fourth pre-season game.

(Post could also be titled: 21 reasons this blog sucks)

Last year, I wrote a post titled "21 bold predictions for the 2009 Pittsburgh Steelers." I didn't hold back and threw out some ridiculous and very bold predictions. Even crazier, I believed in most of them at the time.

I stumbled upon the post today and my god...I could not have been farther off on so many things. After looking at some of these, you may want to read another blog. Let us recap and see how many I was right (or close) on.

1. Ben Roethlisberger misses at least two full games due to injury. The offensive line isn't much better and after you win a Super Bowl, good luck is tough to come by.

Big Ben started 15 games and was mostly healthy. MISS.

2. Willie Parker outgains Rashard Mendenhall and Mewelede Moore by quite a bit and surprises a lot of people. Announcers say "He hasn't lost a step."

Jesus...

Fast Willie rushed for a total of 389 yards last year. MISS.

3. Number of times James Harrison is held and no flag is thrown: 251.

Cha-ching. HIT.

4. The Steelers will lose one of the first two games of the season and people will call for heads, most likely Bruce Arians.

Pittsburgh lost a winnable game against Chicago in Week Two and heads were indeed called for. HIT.

5. Number of times James Harrison is held and a flag is thrown: 7

I'm not aware of any data kept on players drawing penalties, but I think it was pretty close. HIT.

6. Brady Quinn doesn't fare any better than Derek Anderson. The Browns finish 6-10.

Quinn's QB rating was 67.2 compared to a paltry 42.1 from Anderson. I still wouldn't call a 67.2 rating much of an improvement. The Browns finished 5-11. HIT.

7. Isaac "Redzone" Redman dresses for two games and scores a touchdown.

He didn't even have two carries. MISS.

8. He will struggle again early, but by the end of the year, Limas Sweed is clearly the Steelers third best wide receiver.

This is the one I'm most embarrassed by. Sweed finished the year with one catch for five yards. MISS.

9. The Bengals "improve," but still only finish 6-10. Ryan Clark will nearly end Chad Ochocinco's career.

Ummmmmmm.  MISS.

10. Three Steelers who become heroes at some point during the season: William Gay, Mewelde Moore, Keyaron Fox.

Fox stepped up and played well, but Gay was awful and Moore mostly invisible. MISS.

11. Three Steelers who become goats at some point during the season: Roethlisberger, Lawrence Timmons, Sweed.

I'd say this is a HIT.

12. Stefan Logan scores 3 TDs this season. Gets compared to Darren Sproles three teams each game.

Logan had a few nice returns, but didn't score any TDs and the preseason magic was gone. MISS.

13. The Baltimore Ravens finish 10-6, as the defense slips a bit and Flacco falters down the stretch.

They were 9-7 and Flacco was better than I thought for the most part. His 39.4 QB rating in the playoffs makes this a good prediction though. HIT.

14. Ray Lewis will still play like he's 25 and I'll be in awe. Ditto with Derrick Mason.

I could pencil this one in for every year. Neither guy ever gets old. HIT.

15. James Harrison won't be the only Steeler LB attending the Pro Bowl at the end of the season.

Yep. HIT.

16. This is *finally* the year that Santonio Holmes becomes the Steelers number one receiver.

He had more yards, but Hines Ward had more catches in TDs. I'll call this one a PUSH.

17. The Steelers finish 11-5, winning the AFC North again but an inconsistent offense leaves doubts.

Not quite that good. And the defense was the inconsistent one. MISS.

18. Drew Brees wins the NFL MVP.

Maybe I meant Super Bowl MVP? MISS.

19. People will complain about number 20 on this list. "OMGZ but yinz a Stillerz blog!"

N/A

20. The Steelers lose to the San Diego Chargers in the divisional round of the AFC Playoffs.

MISS.

21. Holmes will be the Steelers offensive MVP and Harrison the defensive pick

Big Ben and Woodley. MISS.
