    The Seattle Storm swept Los Vegas last night to win their second title in three years. In fact they never lost a game in the playoffs as they dominated most games. Ageless wonder Sue Bird, now 39, is still a whirling dervish point guard and she set a finals record by dishing out 16 assists in...

    2020 NFL Week 4

    Caleb Scott got caught on the Honky Express. This is my guess. They looked at his name on the roster wire and to go along with his tremendous speed etc. they thought he was black. Caleb Scott sort of sounds black to me too. When surprise-surprise this white receiver showed up on the practice...

    2020 NFL Week 4

    The newer look Packers are more appealing now and frankly the added infusion of speed by both LB Summers and TE Tonyan makes the Packers a better more dangerous team. Their lively legs give the Packers a much needed giddy-up. I would hate to think that when the bland Mercedes Lewis and Kirksey...

    2020 NFL Week 4

    Is it me or did that extra Pats game tonight make the evening strange? Stars for the following with a nod to Rex Burkhead for his solid play. Nice to see Gunner in lineup even though he didn't do much with little playing time. Julian had a tough game. Stars; Chase Winovich-turnover sack with...

    They also missed a late hit on the QB that they always call and a KC interference too. Maybe the calls will even out as the game goes on but so far 3-0 Chiefs.

    Looks like Gunner has been activated by the Pats. He was the kick returner. #80. I'm pretty sure that was him.

    And he used to be such a good boy. ( See member Truthteller's older posts). While at Penn State he recruited Troy Apke as a wide receiver. Apke was later switched to safety under the more caste directed Franklin regime. Looks like a repeat of the Jack Del Rio led Raiders which crashed and...

    Hard to believe with the movie industry slowed to a crawl but they have managed to squirt out the long awaited sequel to the "Weekend At Bernie's" franchise. It is called "Weekend at Fitzgerald's."

    Yes they panned to #24 as he looked up at the big screen. It wasn't a complete "Chris Conte like" stare down but yes they showed the DB.

    2020 NFL Week 4

    I'd be remiss if I didn't add the sensational 55 yard late TD by Cooper Kupp. Most wide receivers would have slowed down to swerve and cut on this catch. Kupp does it at top speed hence the helpless DB #20 who can't catch up and #24 who has the angle but has no chance...

    2020 NFL Week 4

    Tidbit Monday. I find it fascinating that I have gotten every Bucs game so far making it four. When you consider before this year the only time I would get a Tampa Bay game was if they played a local team or a prime time game. Now that speaks to the NFL being smart and a little desperate. Going...

    2020 NFL Week 4

    Funny you mention Ingold. I saw him on the bench last night and I said to myself no way is this guy all white. And by the way I had never heard of LB Alex Singleton. When he entered the game I figured he was some light skinned mixed player. I just watched his pick six since. I conked out in the...

    The funny thing about Kittle is he stands out today because of the furious nature of his game. But if you were to beam back into the 70's a lot of players were like him. Heck TE Dave Casper played with that crazy abandon all the time. It just goes to show how "polite" the game has become...

    Like I said I don't dislike Gruden but he has his head up his ass. This is the third Raiders game I have watched this year and I can't think of a team that suffers more mental errors than them. He just thought of putting Crosby and Nassib in at the same time when he should have considered that...

    2020 NFL Week 4

    Raiders pass rush instantly improves with Crosby and Nassib in at the same time resulting in a Crosby sack. This I believe is the first time the Raiders had them both in at the same time. Duh do it more often. And another circus catch by Renfrow. Wow.

    2020 NFL Week 4

    The Giants including Jones put up a good fight today. One reason was their tough D led by Packer rejects Martinez (13 tackles and 1 TFL) and Fackrell (4 tackles, 1 sack and 3 TFLs.). Good to see Rams LB Troy Reeder out on the field today. Few if any receivers can swerve and cut at top speed like...

    2020 NFL Week 4

    Kupp is among the best if not the best when he catches a pass in the mid to long range. His yards after catch ability in these zones is top shelf. Witness his TD today. Just blew by the defensive backs. Which is why I get a bit frustrated when they over do the dink and dunk stuff with him. He...

    Kyler Fackrell with his second sack of the year. Oh and Brady has a nickname for Miller. He calls him "Scooter."

    Heck of a second half. Two things I noticed about Brady. He was letting Watson have it on the sidelines because that was the second pick six on a Watson sideline route this year and I think Tom was telling him make sure you get in front of the DB on those routes. Secondly as the obviously...

    Take this with a grain of salt but if tests run clean Monday morning the Pats- Chiefs game will be on CBS at 7:00. Which means it will overlap with the Monday night game which will start at 8:50. But while I am annoyed at the overlap I catch a break because I will get the Raiders-Bills game...

    Corner Canyon destroyed yet another team on the back of seven TD passes. WR Liam Clifford had a career game yesterday. The Penn State commit set a school record catching 12 passes for 300 yards including two touchdowns. Many of us caught a glimpse of him on ESPN a while back. Terrific looking...

    Good grief. Halep cruising and looking like the eventual champ got bounced early this morning ( I missed it) by teen Iga Swiatek. She got crushed to boot. What the hell? Anyway Swiatek has been talked up the past year plus so let's see how she ends up here. Australian Open winner Sofia Kenin...
