Happy Father’s Day to all the papas celebrating this Sunday. While my Florida Gators have had a few down years in football and basketball, they continue their dominance in baseball. Congrats to the reigning champions on making a fourth consecutive trip to Omaha for the College World Series. The Gators flag is blowing proudly at […]
It’s been a pretty entertaining NBA Finals, if you’re a fan of the Golden State Warriors or any of its players. The talk is already turning to where will LeBron play next. I seriously doubt he is coming back to Miami. I also think it’s more likely than not that he leaves Cleveland. I would […]
Another NBA Finals and another appearance by my man Draymond Green, so you know I’m cheering on the Golden State Warriors. Staying on basketball, how crazy is this report on the potential connection between Philadelphia 76ers general manager Bryan Colangelo and these Twitter “burner” accounts? As always, sports professor Michael McCann breaks it down really […]
I’ll lead with an apology for skipping on last week’s Friday Wrap-up. To be honest, the time of day and day of week becomes a blur when you’re half way across the world in Singapore. When you were waking up on Friday, I was probably 3 Tiger beers deep and stuffing my face with spicy […]
Only a couple of days until I make my first voyage to Singapore, which I hear is just an absolutely gorgeous country. As excited as I am, being away for a week, especially from my little dog Charli, is tough. But at least the wifey is coming on the trip with me. Happy Mother’s Day […]
How do you like our new look? Every so often, it feels like it’s time for a facelift, and you’ll find that the changes here aren’t all that big. But hopefully the site loads a bit faster, is easier to read on iPads and mobile phones and just looks a little better. Hopefully everyone has […]
Happy 4/20 day? Greetings from Las Vegas, my home away from home. I’m currently recovering from a meat hangover, so excuse my tardiness on the weekly column. There was a lot of fanfare over the NFL schedule relese last night, which was pretty much all I was able to watch while traveling from Fort Lauderdale […]
Let’s see what happened this past week. We had the news of the 4 major players associations deciding that they were going to break silence on their position concerning sports betting. They want a seat at the table when it comes to discussions over how players’ image rights will be used, which means they want some […]
I suppose the big story of the week was NFL offensive lineman Richie Incognito firing his agency, Athletes First, via Twitter. Interestingly enough, it wasn’t the first time he took to Twitter to terminate his relationship with the sports agency (soon thereafter rethinking that decision). Otherwise, the large sports agent-related story is the fact that […]
Shabbat Shalom and a Happy Easter/Happy Passover to all readers. I posted a quick LinkedIn article this week that explains a little bit of background on how/when this website began. I’m off to the 2018 Miami Open Tournament today to catch some tennis. Enjoying the Miami Heat’s recent success and who knows, maybe an upset […]
