Brad Pye’s National Sports Beat (1/25-1/31/18)

Brad Pye’s National Sports Beat (1/25-1/31/18)

Sportscaster Mike Tirico will be joined by former NBA “Today” co-host as his co-host on KNBC’s Olympics coverage. Bryant Gumbel was the first man of color to serve in this spot.
Simone Biles, the most honored female Olympic gymnast in the world, alleges she was sexually abused by USA gymnast Doctor Larry Nassar. Biles won four gold medals and five overall. Nassar was sentenced in December to 60-years in federal prison and is facing another 45 to 125-years in prison after pleading guilty to assaulting seven girls. Now that’s what you call a real jail bird. Simone says she is talented, motivated, and passionate. “I have promised myself that my story will be much greater than this and I promise all of you that l will compete with all of my heart and soul everyday I step into the gym.”
Did the Houston Rockets’ Trevor Ariza and Gerald Green get a fair shake for their little locker room fiasco?” I don’t think so! The Rockets’ Chris Paul and the Clippers’ DeAndre Jordan got off scout free, Bottom Line: The Clippers walked off with their sixth straight victory, 109-104.
Belated congratulation to the boss’ Danny J. Bakewell, Sr. Executive Publisher/CEO Los Angeles Sentinel, being honored by the L.A. Clippers at the MLK Day game for his longstanding social activism and leadership.
No, there was not a QB of color in the four remaining playoff games this week. They are New England Patriots’ Tom Brady, Minnesota Vikings’ Case Keenum, Philadelphia Eagles’ Nick Foles and the Jacksonville Jags’ Blake Bortles. For the record, the New England Patriots has 9 AFC Championships. A win vs. Jacksonville made it 10. And the beat continues!
The Philadelphia Eagles have a group of stars that have been dubbed “The Hammer” “A load” “The Hammer & Load.” The group included in this foursome are LeGarrette Blount, Corey Clement, Ken Banner and Jay Ajayi. And beat continues!
Ex-Oakland Raiders assistant head coach Ken Norton, Jr. was hired by the San Francisco ‘49ers several days ago and jumped ship to become the new defensive coordinator for the Seattle Seahawks, a few days ago.
The words of the Cavs’ LeBron James are just as meaningful today as they were when spoken by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. more than five decades ago. Here is some of the speech LeBron James made on Jan. 20. “He actually gave up his life for the betterment of all of us to be able to live in [a] free world, and for us to be able to have a voice, for us to go and be free no matter your skin color, no matter who you are.”
Philadelphia Eagles QB Nick Foles will not be an easy test for the New England Patriots’ Super star QB Tom Brady. Check this! Foles tuned up for the Super Bowl 52 by earning a 44.4 passer rating by completing 26 0f 33 for 352-yards with a trio of TDs. And the beat continues! That’s the end!
