Luke Jackson’s redemption arc has come full circle

            Luke Jackson was the most criticized player on all of the Braves teams from 2017-2020. He would routinely come into every game and immediately allow several runners to reach base. Sometimes he would get out of the jam, but there were times (like in 2020) where he didn’t do it. Jackson was frequently designatedContinue reading “Luke Jackson’s redemption arc has come full circle”

Black Monday in the NFL

            Black Monday is an unfortunate tradition unlike any other, where the underperforming coaches in the league are unceremoniously fired at the conclusion of the NFL’s regular season. This happens on an annual basis, and several coaches are let go even before the end of the year. General managers are no exception to this ruleContinue reading “Black Monday in the NFL”

A closer look at the Braves offseason

            It’s been an interesting offseason for the Braves, albeit a somewhat disappointing one. They’ve upgraded in a few areas, but it still feels like we’re a piece or two away from greatness. Honestly, it seems like we’re banking on returns to health from key players like Ronald Acuna, Jr. & Ozzie Albies, as wellContinue reading “A closer look at the Braves offseason”

NFL Week 18 Games to Watch

Let me start off by saying that my heart goes out to Bills safety Damar Hamlin, his family, and the rest of the Bills faithful as they continue dealing with his medical emergency. The situation is truly an unprecedented one, as the game was suspended by staff on both teams.  I’ve never seen anything likeContinue reading “NFL Week 18 Games to Watch”

NFL Week 17 Games to Watch

            Week 16 of the NFL season wasn’t quite as fun as Week 15 was, but it was great overall. The Cowboys are still alive in the NFC East race after knocking off the Eagles at home, while the Vikings pulled off another miraculous victory, connecting on a 61-yard field goal for the win. Don’tContinue reading “NFL Week 17 Games to Watch”

NFL Week 16 Games to Watch

            Are you not entertained?! Last week was the most exciting one of the NFL season so far. Week 15 began with the Vikings leading the largest comeback in NFL history against the Colts. Next, the Dolphins & Bills faced off in an epic matchup that more or less decided the AFC East. Then, thereContinue reading “NFL Week 16 Games to Watch”

NFL Week 15 Games to Watch

            Week 14 of the NFL was boring, and although there were some interesting results (such as the Lions victory over the Vikings), most of these matchups were simply lacking in intrigue. Fortunately for football fans, Week 15 promises to be much better, with six stellar games on tap. It all starts on Thursday nightContinue reading “NFL Week 15 Games to Watch”

NFL Week 14 Games to Watch

            Week 13 of the NFL was a mixed bag for football watchers, with several good games (Vikings-Jets, Bengals-Chiefs) mixed in with some total duds (Cowboys-Colts, Eagles-Titans). My feeling is that Week 14 will offer more of the same, with only four relevant games of note. I’m happy as a Falcons fan that my teamContinue reading “NFL Week 14 Games to Watch”
