Who is the first 2017 NFL QB with the most TD passes? Would believe it’s the Houston Texans rookie Deshaun Watson. He has 12 TDs in his first games. And Watson wasn’t a starter in all of them.
Check This! The Pittsburgh Steelers’ Antonio Brown’s next TD catch will be his 52nd , breaking a tie for the record for the third most catches in franchise history with Hall of Famer Lynn Swann, currently the AD at USC. Swann was an all-American at his Alma mater and an all pro and Super Bowl star several times with the Steelers.
ESPN took its time but the media outlet suspended anchor Jamele Hill for two weeks for making some political comments including calling the President a “White supremacist” and for comments regarding Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones saying, who didn’t stand for the American flag couldn’t play for his Dallas Cowboys.
Seattle’s Russell Wilson is completing 62 percent of his passes, eight with TDs and he rushed for 138-yards and a TD in 25-carries. Russell Wilson counts on Doug Baldwin, Jimmy Graham, Paul Richardson and Luke Wilson (no relations to QB Russell Wilson). Seattle’s QB Russell Wilson rules the NFC ! (photo by Robert Torrence)
Are the Pittsburgh Steelers playoff dreams dead? They may be after QB Ben Roethlisberger threw for 312-yards, but also threw five interceptions and didn’t throw for a single TD. The Steelers went into action this weekend with a three-way tie the New England Patriots, New York Jets and the Buffalo Bills, to turn their season around and cop the AFC East
Its payback time for the Washington Nationals Manager Dusty Baker, the eight-year star and a one-time World Series hero for the L.A. Dodgers. Dusty Baker was passed over by the Dodgers, the Chicago Cubs, and by the San Francisco Giants; he was fired by two of these clubs. Despite these shaky deals, Baker has succeeded because of his strong religious beliefs; this is the year for his moment to win baseball’s biggest prize. If this is truly Dusty Baker’s moment, thank God, for there is not a more deserving man.
The L.A. Dodgers are some real history makers, but they have less than 10 games to win it all. The Dodgers moved into record setting historic 103 wins column. Check This! The Dodgers are too deep for the D-backs and virtually everybody else. That seemly is true after a NLDS sweep. The Dodgers won the first two-playoff games, 2-0 and a 8-5 score. And the beat continues!
Are the 1-4 L.A. Chargers on their way to bouncing back and posting a long winning streak like the L.A. Dodgers did when they went into a tailspin and lost 11 decisions. Incidentally, both the Chargers and the New York Giants were 0-4 when their game started. The Chargers prevailed 27-22 in their Sunday meeting with the N.Y. Giants.(Photo by Robert Torrence)
And the beat continues! The Dodgers moved up another notch as they swept the Arizona D-backs with a 3-0 mark. Next up for the Dodgers in the NLCS is the Chicago Cubs at Dodgers Stadium. The Dodger’s savior all the way through the World Series could be closer Kenley Jansen. All he has to do to make this come true is keep on doing what he has done thus far. To date, Dodgers Manager Dave Roberts has made all the right moves and the local could finally win their first World Championship since 1988.
The world has known for years that the NCAA has been broken for years. But no ones knows how to fix college sports’ golden pay pot. This what a screaming Sports Illustrated Magazine announced in its latest edition. Now hear this! Time Magazine knows the score when it comes to shining a light on the NCAA college sports scandal. Time Magazine writes: “Top tier college basketball has long been a bit of a cesspool, filled with too slick coaches and hangers-on with their hands out. Still, the game can be a force for good. Many athletes take their studies seriously. They learn to manage their time and benefit from the experience throughout their lives.” And the beat continues!
The Seahawks’ 16-10 win over the Rams now both have identical 3-2 report cards. The Seahawks are still the rulers of the NFC West, And the beat continues!
Three of my favorite pro players are the Seattle Seahawks’ QB Russell Wilson, Cleveland Cavaliers’ LeBron James, and the Oklahoma City Thunders’ Russell Westbrook, the former UCLA and Leuzinger High great.
The New York Jets head coach Todd Bowles has a three-game winning streak with the Buffalo Bills, New England Patriots, and the New York Jets.
The Boston Red Sox is back home and Boston fans are happy again. As Rev, Jesse Jackson would say: “Keep Hope Alive.” From the bottom to the top is what the lower echelon of his staff did to do their part to help the top men to remain on top.
Penn State moved up to the No. 3 spot after Iowa State knocked off Oklahoma. At the rate Penn State is moving up, the Nittany Lions should earn a top spot in the NCAA Championship game again.
