The top defensive rookie players were the sole focus of the 2017 NFL Draft. There was very little conversation about the top offensive rookies such as Mike Williams, Corey Davis, John Ross, O.J. Howard, David Njoku, Deshaun Watson and Mitchell Trubisky. It’s time to examine the top candidates and their chances to win Offensive Rookie of the Year. Corey Davis - Wide Receiver - Tennessee Titans - Many consider Davis the
(Editor’s Note: This post may contain language some consider to be inappropriate or uncomfortable.) Ahhh, the widely-used profanity word that is the c-word cunt! Yup, that’s right I said it, cunt! In the past few years, “cunt” has evolved from a sexist insult used to describe a woman in a negative manner into an undefined word used loosely in everyday situations. What was once the go-to insult against women, is
Hall of Fame baseball lifer Branch Rickey said, “It is better to trade a player a year too early, than a year too late”. While this is not exactly the world Kobe Bryant lives in, the sentiment is the same. As a life-long Laker fan, I would rather have seen him retire a year too soon, than waiting as he did and retiring a year too late. Granted, his past
With Thanksgiving just around the corner, of course it is time to bust out the “Thankful For” Columns. Now even though I am thankful for: Robert Cobb (Editor, Founder and Publisher of “Inscriber Digital Media” and this fine website) for allowing me the blank canvas to work my artistry. The Award Winning Nick Ficorelli (Host of the Mad Scientist Sports Lab on Saturday Nights right here on Inscriber Digital Media
Ageism has always been a prevalent part of our society because it’s the one ism that people can get away with; especially in sports. Society’s ageisms typically come in two forms. One, if you’re too young, people don’t think you have enough experience for a job/responsibility (often true). And two, if you’re too old, then people think you’re not going to adapt to the new future (less than the former,
Just about a week ago, the new Hall of Fame ballot was released, and within seconds of its release, the debate began again. Should Pete Rose, the All-Time Hit King, be allowed into the Hall? You know what, my opinion on this topic is going to stay shrouded in mystery (OK, not really mystery, I think he should be in, but that is not what this column is about). No,
Over the last 48 hours, can you take a guess about what has trended all over social media? It is not the pathetic unraveling of GOP wunderkind Ben Carson and his presidential campaign, nor is it LSU’s stud running back Leonard Fournette and his family being under NCAA investigation over making a profit on his likeness. Heck, it ain’t even about the recent jobs and unemployment rate. It sure as
The United States prides itself on a lot of things, including being the greatest country in the world. It was a country founded on freedoms that we take serious to the very core. So serious as a matter of fact, men and women are ready, willing and able to die to protect said freedoms. So imagine my surprise to find out it was all a lie. A lie that makes
This may just be me, but I am a huge New York Jets fan, crazy enough I am not from New York, it was not something “passed down” to me, yet when I was a kid, I told my parents I liked the team in green. Stuck with it ever since, can I say I am a die-hard fan, not necessarily, but fantasy is not that important to me. Basically
This past Saturday, we saw one of the most unbelievable endings in college football history. Michigan State found victory in the most unlikely of circumstances when the Spartans returned a botched long snap on the final play of the game to turn what the world assumed would be a 23-21 Michigan win into a 27-23 loss. Now, we have seen some crazy finishes in college football in our lifetimes, so,
