I missed the Gilley vs Davis fight and Gilley might have gotten the short end of the stick in this one as the announcing team seemed to favor Gilley. As I speculated Welch was in over his head against Riakporhe but the stoppage might have been a bit too early as he hit the deck three times but...

Picking up the slack for reporting on the weeks televised cards the big card of week is the rematch of Eubank Jr. vs Benn Jr. The two half caste sons fought a modern classic in their first fight. I didn't expect the action I saw in the fight as Jr. Eubank has had weight making issues for years...

Ortiz vs Lubin is the blue ribbon bout of the weekend. Wallin vs Thomas should be a walkover bout if Wallin is anything close to his prime as Thomas is a blown up cruiserweight who has been a B side foil to prospects. On the Ortiz card two Swedish nationals fight on the card but neither are...

I think the city is circling the drain similar to the 70's. It's just in the early stages of it so it's not as obvious as it was then. I noticed his hardcore supporters seem to be young and more female than male. As much as he would love to turn the system upside down the powers of a mayor...

https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/46840979/victor-conte-dies-75The Godfather of PED subterfuge died today, Victor Conte was the architect of the Balco scandal that even 20+years later still reverberates in pro sports similar to Marvin Miller fighting MLB and winning free agency for his clients...

They clearly didn't fire whatever scouts that have a chicken hawk fetish on skinny Black qb's. How did anybody expect a guy who looks like a basketball off guard have any durability. Granted this injury was flukish but his other injuries probably come from his body type which would never...

I forgot Brown was a Brit when I saw the name I assumed he was a American Black or Mulatto prospect. On to more important things he has potential to get to the top if he can knock out a very good gatekeeper for a now 5 and 0 prospect his opponent in the recent past fought elite fighters in the...

Judging from the photos she might be a quarter Chinese and he is one 1/8th Chinese. Sam Bradford is only 1/16th Native American but if you saw him you would think he was about a quarter Native American, Bichette is probably similar. As for the series the 25' series will go down in history as...

Yes another slow weekend with two club fight cards. The British card has some White prospects on it and Parker is in tough against Buatsi but if Parker is the goods he should beat Buatsi who is a level below Bivol or Beterbiev. The US card has Afro Cuban Lenier Pero headlining the card he...

Now the story is coming out that Rozier owes 8 million to the IRS after grossing 160 million in his career. I don't think this bozo can chew gum and walk at the same time if this story is true...

This one hit me hard because of kidney disease which killed my father but he was more than double Mangold's age. He was a warrior and deserved to hoist a Lombardi or at least have a game on the biggest stage. As much of a caste stooge as Rex Ryan was as a head coach he had much respect for...

Yes essentially determining the number 1 contender in the blue ribbon division. While the main event is juicy the rest of the card is weak and lacking bouts that hold my interest. A few Saudi backed cards are around the corner so you would think Warren could have extracted a quality fight to...

I wouldn't be surprised if he was living close to pay stub to pay stub. You have to think he has lost multiple millions gambling and might have half a dozen bimbo's that he supports and leeching family members, etc, etc....

Yes it was a hobby that working class kids could afford and when I mean kids I mean kids that are well under even the typical paper route age. I said it before but I used to look for pop bottles near my parents house and returned them for change and bought packs in the mid 70's. Now somebody...

With the corruption endemic in the sports market it wouldn't be a shock to see bribes in the grading process for memorabilia and coins. At best it's soft corruption with big customers getting favorable grading. This has been implied for years in cards. Over the years there have been so many...

Yes this would be a prime example of a counterfeiter destroying the industry. I remember in the first boom Brett Hull was hot as he was doing single season goal scoring totals similar to Gretzky in his early years in Edmonton and his card was hot so that was counterfeited. The counterfeit card...

This has been a problem since the first boom of the early 90's. I wonder if the original owner had a clue his card was fake. I won't buy any card above a certain value because of this. Things are so bad with counterfeiting that devious counterfeiters are taking counterfeits and destroying 6...

Updating the weekly action as of writing this post DAZN has a Matchroom British club fight card featuring a plethora of White fighters and the main event is an all White affair with Conway vs Liddard. Liddard is the betting favorite but he is stepping up against Conway this could be the...

Joe Flacco reminds me of this fictional character and he is from a town that shares the same name...

Is this one last push by George Soros for a woke ending to his life or is Bloomberg behind this campaign... I will say this if it's Bloomberg it's going to be fake woke slogans but behind the scenes puppeteering of the bearded woke Manchurian candidate.

That was quick if I didn't know any better I would guess somebody on this board is a PSU board of regents member... Jokes aside I thought Franklin making a Final 4 appearance bought him time but the heat was too much from boosters and fans for the extremely mediocre Franklin keeping his job.

A 11 year old girl who can run a 55.58 has world level potential if not medal contender potential. She probably could make the open national final in Australia with that time. I did notice she was very lean and had some breast development so maybe she is an early developer but beyond that if...

All are half another ethnicity I think Montana and Marino are half Polish-American and I think Flacco is half Irish-American. Grappolo as swarthy as he is half German-American and isn't nearly as dark as he is when he is in the public eye as he must hit the tanning booth or one drop of sun and...

I knew he had light colored eyes but I always thought they were green it was quite a contrast from his usually darkly tanned skinned. I assumed Montana had brown eyes because his dad was Italian- American and blue eyes are considered recessive genes where if one parent has darker eyes the...

I remember around this time period the NFL had a significant amount of Italian-American players in the speed positions ie Tommy Casanova or Ed Marinaro so maybe the numbers skewered towards these stereotypes because of this. Also O-lines had more German-Americans and that would skewer towards...
