Shame on you baseball...Maybe

Today Barry bonds and Roger Clemons are both to be voted on for the hall of fame. They are two of the greatest players to ever play the game. If they are not inducted then no player from 1987 to 2006ish should be considered. All players from this era used all kinds of chemicals including steroids. Speed was huge during this time as well. the players who are not linked to roids or other PED's from this era never put numbers up that would be considered hall worthy in any era. So if the two best of this era don't go in then no one should. And if they don't go in baseball should be ashamed of itself.

Why the Chiefs Sucking hurts so much…

                                                                                           (nope can't blame him anymore)

I was thinking, this is not the first time the chiefs have sucked. In fact, there have been years past where the efforts by some teams were even more futile. There were teams that had fewer talented players and less hope of having a good season. So why is this so upsetting to us, so called, die-hard chiefs fans? I thought for a moment that maybe it was because our expectations were so high at the beginning of the season and the are so bad. No, I don’t think so. We are Kansas City sports team fans; disappointment comes with the territory.

We have a theory…nay…the answer. Parody. Parody is killing the league and  hurting fans. Why? More like how? How can a set-up of teams built to ensure competitiveness be a bad thing? How can it hurt fans; making sure your team can go worst to first in any given year. It is simple, there are no good teams. Every team is just ok, and each weak you could make an argument that any team could beat the other no matter what the record. So, when your team can’t beat teams built for your team to beat; well it sucks.

It never seemed to be that hard to watch the great Steelers teams come in and get a win or the Giants in the 80’s or the 49ers.  Even the Cowboys of the 60’s, 70’s, and 90’s. When teams like that came in it was known to even the most average fan that a win will be unlikely at best. I remember when those great Bills teams in the early 90’s would come to Arrowhead. Chiefs fans knew that if there was a win it would be a real battle. There were just games on the schedule that seemed unlikely wins at best; honest fans chalked them up as losses. But we all still went to the games to cheer. Partly because we hoped they would win, but also to see our team go head to head with the best to see how we measured up.

We no longer have that. There is no one dominant team that losses are upsets to them and each week they are favored to win. The Patriots are closest, only their defense is awful and when they loose no one is really surprised. This is also why this league is impossible to predict. Oh, you can listen to the experts each week but when it comes down too it, they know as little as we do. The expert picks are around .500 at best.

Now in the days of parody your team, our team, has no excuse to lose. Every loss was an expected win. Every blow out loss was an unacceptable performance. Every team sucks so the Chiefs should win. And they continue to fail. Parody destroys greatness and exceptionalism. It has too, you can’t make everything great. You can only make everything average.

Unfortunately in a league of average our Chiefs can’t compete…

Come back for Parody killed great QB’s

And there is this guy...

We at SCM sports don't follow the average joe sports. You know the sports where anybody can participate. Even those who have no chance of competing. Normally, we just don't have the time to mess with who dominated a marathon of average people who months ago could not get off the couch. Hey, good for them, I am glad the have done something. But then we saw this guy:

He ran a marathon in flip-flops. We have three words for you sir...

Like A Boss!
