Vice President of everything
According to Wikepedia (2021), “Ronnie Brunswijk (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈrɔni ˈbrʏnsʋɛik]; born 7 March 1961) is a Surinamese politician, businessman, footballer, former rebel leader, and the current Vice President of Suriname” (para. 1). Formal rebel leader? Ok, this guy is interesting. What is not interesting is inserting yourself, your old, overweight […]
College Football Takeaways: Week 3
Every team can be beaten. Oklahoma, Clemson, and Alabama all had “scares”, or at least really close games. It proves that for most weeks, the great and good teams still need to bring it. Speaking of being ready for every opponent, Ohio State allowed over 500 yards against 0-3 Tulsa. […]

Kyler Murray Shines Again For the Arizona Cardinals

Murray completed 29-of-36 passes for 400 yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions in a 34-33 win for Arizona over Minnesota. Greg […]
The Tennessee Titans is Still Derrick Henry’s Team
The Tennessee Titans once trailed 24-9 at the start of the second half against the Seattle Seahawks on the road. Derrick Henry didn’t do much damage in the first half, but he took over the game in the second half for Tennessee. With the Titans trailing 30-16 in the […]
College Fan of the Year: Nominee #1
You know a rivalry is next level, if you go into hostile Happy Valley on whiteout night, in your Bama gear, to root for your rival Auburn to lose to the Nittany Lions. Kudos my dear friend, kudos. https://twitter.com/RickKarle/status/1439672740437499910 Also, shout out to Penn State, this atmosphere was […]
Josh Allen and Buffalo Bills Bounce Back
The Buffalo Bills offense was shaky in a Week 1 loss against the Pittsburgh Steelers at home. Buffalo’s offense bounced back in a big way against the Miami Dolphins on the road in a 35-0 shutout win in Week 2. Josh Allen was a little bit shaky for the second […]
The media is pathetically trying to hire next USC coach
This usually happens in the offseason and is less irritating, but since the media has dubbed USC a crown jewel job and it is vacant, they are naming coaches who are currently employed as the frontrunner as the next USC coach. Since Pete Carroll’s last season in 2009, they have […]

EOK | Preseason Game 2 vs Blades
The Edmonton Oil Kings make the over 5-hour road trip to Saskatoon this weekend for two games against the Blades, Friday and Saturday. Admittedly a lot of the Oil Kings roster is currently at NHL training camps. However, that gives a great opportunity for players to prove they can grab […]
Joe Burrow is already in the Hall of Fame?
Ok, ok…I admit that was a hook title. However, it is notable that the Bengals debuted a redesigned jersey for the first time in the regular season. Burrow not only made an unbelievably quick comeback from a gruesome injury, but the Bengals won a wild OT game over Minnesota to […]
Time for John Mara to Step Aside as New York Giants Co-Owner
John Mara is 66 years old and he has been the co-owner of the New York Giants for a very long time with co-owner Steve Tisch. The New York Giants ownership goes back to the days of Wellington Mara. John Mara is better off in a retirement home right now […]
The curious case of the big drum
Many may think this is much to do about nothing, but Purdue will be without their 10 feet tall, 565 pound drum, marking the first time since 1979 the Boilers marching band will be without the drum. Chalk this up to Notre Dame being a bit goofy here. They won’t […]
Jockey shocks horse; gets 10 year ban
Stewards at New Jersey’s Monmouth Park have recommended permanent revocation of jockey Tomas Mejia after it was discovered the jockey raced with an electrical device that shocked the horse into running faster. Currently, the jockey has received a 10-year ban and a $5,000 fine, however, further punishment could come after […]
Soccer with no headers allowed?
According to Cognitive fx (2019), “Approximately 5% of soccer players sustain a brain injury every year” (para. 6). As CTE becomes an ever-increasing concern amongst medical professionals, every sport is now under the microscope. While soccer trails men’s and women’s hockey, American football, and men’s rugby on the list of […]
NHL claims 98% of players will be vaccinated by start of season
Current projections from league sources say only about 10-15 skaters will be unvaccinated, from among the roughly 700 total players. The season starts October 12th, and while there is no league-wide mandate, players face the threat of not being able to cross the US-Canada border without the vaccine. Unvaccinated players […]
