31 other GMs can't be wrong

We've seen several interesting examples this season of players that no one else wanted, signing on for one last chance with the one team who thought they still had something left. So far, Ty Law is looking to be a non-factor with the Jets. Shaun Alexander hung on for just weeks with the Redskins. And Richie Sexson spent about a month with the Yankees. All were examples of low-risk, scrap heap pickups of guys appeared to be nearing the end...who, as it turns out, really are near the end. I guess if nothing else, it's a lesson that often the masses are correct. Sure, sometimes you're the only one who believes in something, and you turn out to be right. But the majority of the time, you can just save yourself the effort, and take cues from others.

Coming up next week: My long awaited (by no one) NFL Season in Review.
