 2006 Year in Review

Indeed 2006 was one Moe year, with some Shemp mixed in.  It was a wild, whacky sports year full of steroids, politics, great performances and some not so great performances.  We were there to cover some of it when we felt like it.  Here's what we saw.

 
Sportsman of the Year

Terrell Owens - NFL Wide receiver

An heroic superbowl performance with a broken leg, adding Drew Rosenhaus, sit ups in his driveway while on suspension, being waived despite being one of the best receivers in the league, signing with Dallas, the hamstring injury, the 'almost' suicide attempt and just being himself have led to the the selection of TO as Jockweb's Sportsman of the year
Sports Woman of the Year
 

Tara Conner, Miss USA and Katie Blair, Miss Teen USA

They know why.
 
Barry Bonds on Steroids?
In 2006 we learned that Barry Bonds most likely took steroids.  Although we were unable to get a confirmation from Barry when we spoke with him, the interview with his breakfast was more telling.

Most likely, Bonds was eating steroid laced food for breakfast.  Picture is Bond's toast.
 
The Chicago Cubs continued their string of futility.  They are now almost 100 years without a title.  It's kind of hard to win when these guys are your infield -
 
 
Speaking of futility, the Detroit Lions are proving to be among the worst franchise in sports history.  They are the LA Clippers of the NFL.

Out of curiosity, how many wives does this guy have?
 
 
It was a rough year for NY Giants head coach Tom Coughlin.  His players claim he's too harsh and a little out of control.

Pictured, Tom Coughlin corrects Eli Manning by disciplining his girlfriend.
 
 
Outside of Sports, Brittany Spears had quite a year.  Had another kid, divorced her husband, proved that she is clean shaven, and ultimately was voted the worst pet owner.  We disagree.  She seems to have taken care of her beaver very well.
 
 
Back to sports, in the NBA, Phoenix Suns guard Steve Nash almost took his team to the top.  Critics claimed he was too effeminate to reach the top.  Nash denies this.
 
 
Racism and reverse racism reared their ugly heads in 2006.  We at Jockweb believe that racism should be left to the Jerry Springer show.

Here we see an African American taking out his frustration over what the goofball from Seinfeld said.
 
 
And gals kept playing sports.  Jockweb was there to cheer them on.  Keep it up, ladies.  If you do, we will, too.

 
 
Duante Culpepper had more than egg on his face as he tried to prove he was ready to come back from knee surgery.
 
 
Last and least is the New York Nicks of the NBA.  A team that can't even win when the other team doesn't show up.
 
 
 
Finally, some advice from Jockweb for 2007.  The NFL, NBA, and NHL should consider downsizing.  Does the NBA need the Memphis Grizzlies?  Does the NFL really need the Houston Texans?  Does hockey need the Columbus Blue Jackets, the Atlanta Thrashers, the Carolina Hurricanes, the Tampa Bay Lightning, Florida Panthers, the Nashville whatever-they-are, the Phoenix Coyotes, etc?  Of course not.  These leagues should stop biting off more than they can chew and asking a little bit of talent to support a lot of league.  Here's an example of what we mean -
It's not pretty is it?
 
 
Stay tuned for 2006, the year in Oh, Crap!!!
