Is Professional Wrestling a Sport?
I get hyped up about the good storylines, disappointed in the bad ones, and I dissect matches and the skill required to pull them off like a coroner doing an autopsy. One question that has consistently come up when I try to talk about wrestling with the people who don’t get it is, “Why would you watch that if it’s all fake?”
The National Anthem & Sports
The only thing anyone could talk about after the game was the stopping of the national anthem. It’s a little odd that this happened now though, as the Mavs had not played the National anthem before any of their home games dating back to the pre-season.

We had a slate that involved only five games where both teams had a winning record, yet the week was still as exciting as it always is. Football truly is undefeated.
NBA Free Agency Madness
NBA free agency is a time of chaos, teams going from contenders to mid playoff purgatory, utter crap to hopeful, and from “We think we can” to “We know we can.”
Wrapping Up: The 2020 NBA Draft
Drafting for professional sports in 2020 when there is a pandemic and we did not have a finish to the college basketball season is like playing Russian roulette except three of the chambers are loaded.
The LA Lakers Get Number 12
So the Los Angeles Lakers just won their twelfth NBA Finals. They did it on the backs of LeBron James and Anthony Davis, but mostly LeBron James. This raises a lot of questions, not all about the Lakers.
Wrapping Up: UFC 249
SPORTS! WE HAVE SPORTS!!! And boy was it a good sport. UFC 249 promised to be one of the most spectacularly stacked cards, maybe since UFC 100.
Kobe and Me
Did I respect the time he blew out his achilles tendon and then walked back onto the court to nail two free throws? Of course I did. To this day that is easily the most cold-blooded thing I have ever seen on the hardwood.
