In sports, the Turkey award is given to the biggest failure of the year. So here are the fails.
1. The Chicago Cubs, a team with a massive payroll played its 102nd straight season without a championship. That is a flat out joke.
2. Brett Favre. He retired and un-retired (again) and is playing dreadfully, faking injuries and he did a couple of things I can't mention on a G-Rated blog.
3. Ken Macha established himself as the worst manager in the history of baseball. He put Hoffman in with ties, waited until August to call up Lorenzo Cain, then sent him down when he was hitting .800! He made a team with so much talent look like the Cubs at one point.
4. Tiger Woods. Way to go Tiger. Once again, G-Rated blog, but we all know what happened.
5. Jim Joyce and Bud Selig. Jim Joyce admitted he blew an obvious call at 1st that denied Armando Galaraga a Perfect game. Selig could have reversed the horrendous call but he did not.
6. The Dallas Cowboys and the Minnesota Vikings are 2 teams that came into the season with huge expectation and both of them suck and had their coach fired after the Packers crush them.
7. Lebron James tottaly blew his reputation by abandoning his hometown on national T.V.
8. Ilya Kovalachuk got offered a (correct me if I'm wrong) 17 year $112 million contract to play for the New Jersey Devils, and the offer was turned down by the NHL. Now he has a 15 year $100 million contract. Oh, and guess what? He's only got 4 goals, and his +/- is an ultra low -10. FAILLLLL.
