It’s always wise to wait and see how new teammates actually play together when assessing a big trade in any sport (just look at the Lakers and Russell Westbrook). There was no bigger trade this season in the NBA than the one sending James Harden to the Philadelphia 76ers and Ben Simmons, along with others,Continue reading “Daily Sports Thought 2/25”
Daily Sports Thought 2/24
The Seattle Kraken got the epitome of a moral victory on Thursday when they lost 3-2 in overtime to the Boston Bruins. They were able to gain one point from the overtime loss, their sixth overall loss in a row, bringing their season total to 37 points, third-worst in the NHL. Defenseman Mark Giordano openedContinue reading “Daily Sports Thought 2/24”
Top Ten Tackle Targets for the Seahawks
The Seahawks are in the very unenviable position of having both of their starting tackles from the 2021 enter free agency this offseason. No team wants to see its top pass protectors hit the open market especially when there is a superstar quarterback to protect. The Seahawks certainly have that quarterback in Russell Wilson butContinue reading “Top Ten Tackle Targets for the Seahawks”
Cooper Kupp’s 2021 Season By the Numbers
There are some things in life that are talked about a lot but it still doesn’t do them justice. Racial inequality, climate change, and Ted Lasso all fall into this category.

UFC 270 Reactions
Wow. I am in shock. I imagine that a lot of people watched that fight between Francis Ngannou and Ciryl Gane and left disappointed. But if that was you then you need to grow up and mature as a UFC fan. A great UFC fight isn’t just a huge knockout or a slugfest, although thoseContinue reading “UFC 270 Reactions”
2021 All-Breakout Team
Everybody seems to have different definitions of what a breakout player is. It makes sense that we differ so much on the topic because there is no set standard for what a player breakout is. It can be a backup becoming a starter, a starter becoming a star, a star becoming a superstar, or reallyContinue reading “2021 All-Breakout Team”
My 2021 NFL Awards
The awards that are handed out at the end of the NFL season are always an incredibly prestigious honor for whoever receives the trophy.

2021 Bowl Game Picks Part 1
It is incredibly difficult to correctly predict 44 bowl game winners. It would be incredibly difficult to predict just 10 bowl winners. Especially in this day and age when you don’t even know what players will be playing in the game. Between the transfer portal and sitting out for the NFL Draft, it is aContinue reading “2021 Bowl Game Picks Part 1”
Who is Eric Morris?
This year’s college football coaching carousel has already been an all-time crazy one, and bowl season has not even officially started yet. Lincoln Riley left Oklahoma for USC. Brian Kelly bolted from Notre Dame to go to LSU. Mario Cristobal went back home to coach Miami, leaving Oregon. And many more coaches have changed logosContinue reading “Who is Eric Morris?”
