Around SBN: Interview With UMD Athletic Director, Dr. Debbie Yow

26th up from 29. Forgot to mention that this win streak (6 now) has been done on the road.
~~~~~~~~~

Is that a pulse? I think it is! ... Any mess of invalids can string together a five-game winning streak over the course of a 162-game season, but what's impressive about the Rockies' recent run is that they outscored the competition by 31 runs and that they needed a mere 8 2/3 innings from their relievers during it. ... Ubaldo Jimenez is looking quite acey nowadays, but that still doesn't excuse him from the short-short sleeves he donned on Sunday. You want to flash your guns, go to Bally's Total Fitness ... That Jason "Tasty Innings Muncher" Marquis leads the NL in wins tells you everything you need to know about the usefulness of that particular stat.

I'm shocked.

Not about the rating, we deserve that, but that CBS would actually publish something like this. Reading not only the Rockies comments, but others, the guy is a hack sports comedian. I like Woody Paige more than this, because he manages to come up with puns that don’t work. This power rankings is just this columnists excuse to put his Baseball Stand-Up act out there, test the water.

Not funny, and his baseball knowledge is lacking as well.

To add...

“That this is a power ranking on a leading sports website tells you everything you need to know about the usefulness of those columns.”
