How Duncan Robinson’s Success is Changing Basketball

Reading Time: 3 minutesAs I watched the three-point contest this year, the player that I had my eyes on was Miami Heat Forward Duncan Robinson. Robinson’s path to the NBA has been unlike any others. I’ve actually known the name Duncan Robinson for a long time. Robinson grew up in New Castle, NH, a town 45 minutes north of where I live. He spent 4-years at Governor’s Academy, a small prep school that is just five miles from my house. Then, he spent one post-graduate year at Phillips Exeter Academy, the school that I currently attend. Although I never...

Reading Time: 4 minutesColin Kaepernick and Akim Aliu. One well known, the other seemingly irrelevant. Yet between these two men, one is making a huge social impact through his sport. The other is Colin Kaepernick.  Akim Aliu is a 30 year old hockey player who played for the Calgary Flames, as well as a host of different minor league hockey teams.

Ben Simmons Can Shoot: Why Doesn’t He?

Ben Simmons Can Shoot: Why Doesn’t He?

Reading Time: 2 minutesBen Simmons is arguably the most skilled young player in the NBA. He has an unforgettable passing ability and drives the lane with ease. Though despite this, one thing fans want from him is to shoot the ball. While he’s a deserved All-Star, he still doesn’t shoot in games. The media are all over Simmons’ pregame routine, as he drills threes and practices jumper; yet, in the game, he rarely attempts a jumper. Sure, he’s shot a fadeaway at the end of the shot clock here and there, he’s made a three pointer or two, but...

The Amazing NFL QB Trend that Can Predict Lamar’s Next Season

Reading Time: 2 minutesWhen considering recent years in the NFL, I seem to have come across a trend. Every year the NFL has an MVP – and most years it has a surprising candidate who either wins MVP or is in the discussion later in the season. Since 2014 the MVPs have been: Rodgers, Newton, Ryan, Brady, Mahomes, and Jackson. The surprising candidates I would say are 2014 Romo, 2015 Newton and Palmer, 2016 Carr and Prescott, 2017 Wentz, 2018 Mahomes, and 2019 Jackson. The trend I have come across is that these players have seemed to noticeably drop...

Reading Time: 3 minutesThe Lombardi Trophy is headed back to Kansas City. Andy Reid gets his victory Cheeseburger, Travis Kelce fought for his right to party, and Joe Montana’s team came out on top. As a part of the Faithful that attended the game, last night’s game will be dwelled on and hard to move on from – although, it’s very hard to hate the Chiefs. It’s very hard to hate Andy Reid. And it’s very hard to hate Patrick Mahomes. That Chiefs team remained dominant throughout the whole entire game. Adjusting at half, and dominating the fourth quarter...
