gets way less pub than Lance Berkman
but they both just passed the 300 HR/1000 RBI
mark and they're both 33 (born 23 days apart).

But...

Konerko career: .278/.352/.491
Berkman career: .299/.412/.558

Konerko's been a tick above average for a first baseman, given his rate stats. Meanwhile, Berkman is 3-4 more big years from being a legitimate candidate for the Hall of Fame.

Week 8 Observations
  • The Giants are broken right now, and it's unclear how long they will take to fix. Eli Manning insists his foot isn't bothering him, but the entire team on both sides of the ball is out of sync. The home game against the Chargers next week might be just what the doctor ordered for the offense, but unless the Giants generate a bigger pass rush, find a solution at free safety and get linebacker Michael Boley back to help out in coverage, Philip Rivers will light them up. No one on the team except Corey Webster (and occasionally Terrell Thomas) can cover anyone right now.
    • Pay Attention to Opposing Defenses? Or just the Celtics
    In my last Hoops Lab I suggested paying attention to the opposing defenses when setting your starting line-ups.  Specifically, I suggested keeping an eye on the Celtics, Cavs and Spurs.  Five days into the season, how is that philosophy panning out?

    The year with no Heisman favorite
    This was supposed to be the year of the "Big 3" in regards to the Heisman Trophy. Tim Tebow, Colt McCoy, and reigning Heisman winner Sam Bradford. They were considered by most far and away the favorites. Now, Bradford is done, and Tebow and McCoy are struggling mightily. Additionally, nobody has really stepped into the void. This year, we're over half of the way through the season and nobody has stepped up as a solid, definitive Heisman favorite.
