The NFL has Failed Colin Kaepernick.

Google Why hasn't any NFL team signed Colin Kaepernick yet or will they for that matter? Does he even deserve another chance ? It's hard to make a case for him as of late, I mean in his last 24 starts he is just 4-20 which is awful to say the least. But lets be honest the San Fransico 4'9ers are an awful organization that was doomed the day they let Jim Harbaugh walk out the door. He was put into a position to fail as a quarterback over the past 2 seasons. So yes this man deserves another shot in the NFL. Since 1995 the 4'9ers have reached one Super Bowl and guess who was the quarterback? That's right Kaep!! He has 72 career touchdowns to just 30 interceptions, 2300 career rushing yards. In his first career post season game he totaled 444 total yards of offense with 4 touchdowns. This guy is a stud and you mean to tell me he can't even be a back up? Its not what's happening on the field because guys like Jay Cutler, Nick Foles, Blaine Gabbert, keeping f

Warriors Clinch Number 1 Seed

By -
Last night the Golden State Warriors clinched their 3rd consecutive number 1 seed in the western conference playoffs with a 12 0-111 victory over the Phoenix Suns.  Stephen Curry finished the game 8-13 from 3-point range on the way to 43 points and 11 assist. Klay Thompson chipped in 22 points as the Warriors win their 13th straight game. During the Warriors winning streak Stephen Curry is 26.3 points and assist per game and shooting 46% from the 3-point line. As a team Golden State has figured out how to play at a high level despite losing their leading scorer Kevin Durant a little over a month ago. Losers of 4 out of their first 6 games without KD, the Warriors average margin of victory during their the streak is 15.3 points per game. Also with the win, Golden State become the 1st NBA team to win 65 games for 3 straight seasons. The Warriors have been the best team in the NBA since Steve Kerr took over 2 seasons ago. After adjusting to the Durant injury this team looks unbeatable

Tony Romo Retires

By -
ESPN reports this morning that Tony Romo, former Dallas Cowboy starting quarterback will announce his retirement to pursue a career in broadcasting. Last season Romo's season was cut short due to a compressed fracture in the L1 vertebrae. While sidelined, Rookie Dak Prescott led Dallas to a 13-3 record, best since the 2007 season. Rumors swirled about trading Romo to the Texans, Broncos and a couple of more team. Romo will become the 5th lead commentator for CBS after taking Phill Simms spot. Don't think for a second this is a decision based on Tony's ability to still play football. He has plenty of game left. Romo would start in Denver, Houston, and Cleveland right now. Being in this position at CBS is a once in a lifetime opportunity. At 36 years old, and multiple season-ending injuries, it was time to think about life after football. Tony Romo is charismatic, well-spoken and will be a great addition to the CBS family.
