The Tennessee Titans are hoping for a potential January return of their star player Derrick Henry from his foot injury. Besides just the fact that they will be getting their running back on the pitch, this would be perfect timing for his return as the Playoffs are also beginning in this period of the season. Although he remained in their Week 8 game and helped the Titans to a 34-31 overtime win even after he injured his foot, it was reported later that the injury could be a season-ending Jones fracture. But now the Titans are very optimistic of his…

A win over Makabu would make Canelo a five-division…
The race for this year’s Heisman trophy is the most open it has been in recent memory, as after 11 weeks of the season, not too many contenders have separated themselves from the pack, there is only a little distinction between them. So the race is still on, just like the one for the playoffs, and there will be plenty of opportunities for the contenders to prove themselves to win college football’s biggest honor, as each of them still has a marquee match up where they can potentially make their case. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=85pi9XVNggw There are just a few weeks left…

Terrelle Pryor, a former NFL player made a post on social media where he says that he is not a big fan of Jared Goff from the Detroit Lions. This is what the former NFL receiver wrote on his Instagram stories: “Jared Goff is terrible (Charles Barkley voice). Myself and [Colin] Kaepernick can go on field this second and do better.” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fp8VsLwTFTA As for Kaepernick – no chance there. Jared Goff may have a 0-15-1 in his NFL career in games without former coach Sean McVay, but he’s still light years better than the social justice warrior. Kaepernick has been…
We all knew that this day would come eventually and Steph Curry has officially passed Ray Allen’s record for having most made three-pointers in the NBA. The Golden State Warriors superstar needed 585 fewer games to make 3,358 three-pointers (at the time), so basically, Steph broke the record of one of the best three-point shooters of all time and he’s just going to keep adding to the record. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uo3FqXY9f18 History was written in the second quarter of the game against the Chicago Bulls when Curry hit a contested three-point shot over the one and only Alex Caruso and the fans…

NBA legend Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s son, Adam, was sentenced Tuesday to six months in jail for stabbing his neighbor in Southern Carolina with a hunting knife because of an argument about a trash can. As silly as it sounds, Adam Abdul-Jabbar allegedly stabbed his 60-year-old neighbor in the back of the head several times on June 9 of last year after the man confronted him about failing to take in trash cans for Abdul-Jabbar’s elderly roommate, prosecutors said. The 60-year-old almost died of blood loss after collapsing outside of the emergency room, suffering a fractured skull. District Attorney Todd Spitzer said that…
Let’s all be honest here. Sam Darnold wasn’t good anyway. The Carolina Panthers (4-5) signed quarterback Cam Newton, their former MVP after starter Sam Darnold suffered a shoulder injury Sunday that will sideline him for four to six weeks. Cam Newton led the Panthers to the Super Bowl in 2015 and has now signed a deal worth up to $10 million for the remainder of the season, including $4.5 million guaranteed and a $1.5 million roster bonus. General manager Scott Fitterer talked about that they had a heartfelt, sincere discussion with him and it wasn’t about anything in the past:…
Reigning NBA MVP Nikola Jokic and Heat forward Markieff Morris both got ejected in a Denver Nuggets win over the Miami Heat on Monday night and they’ve built themselves a really intense rivalry if they want it to keep going. With just 2:39 remaining in the fourth quarter, Morris elbowed Jokic in the midsection at half court, attempting to make a hard foul, which he really did, and turned his back… This was apparently a big mistake, as it took just a second for Jokic to react. He ran into his back with his upper arm/shoulder, almost like an angry…
That a Slipknot concert went crazy is something which we used to hear, as they really know how to make a good show on the stage, but this specific one, which took place in Arizona at the Knotfest sideshow this week went a little more too far with the craziness, the funny thing is that none of the Slipknot performers were involved in what happened. Actually, the fans were the stars of this show, at least for 30 minutes, as a blaze erupted in the moshpit and they kept it alive throwing long chairs onto the pile, which seemed very…
This could be the worst camera play with the loudest football call in history… or at least this week! But darn, the dude calling this game is more excited than anything! It was a touch-down for sure in a late-game moment that won the Christian Brothers this weekend’s big Division III CIF Sac-Joaquin Football Playoff game, but the narrator clearly stole the show with his level of excitement and passion. Was he rooting for the Christian Brothers or is he just so much in love with football? Maybe we don’t even need to know the answer to that question… Just…
TLas Vegas Raiders as they waived second-year cornerback Damon Arnette after a shocking video which he posted of him pointing high-power weapons in the camera and making death threats to someone he was direct-messaging with at the moment. This is not the first time he gets into trouble, as he is facing lawsuits for a hit and run car accident from last October, in which a woman accused him of negligence while driving, where she came out injured. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eWNr9JkzmF0 Raiders general manager Mike Mayock said in a conference call that it was a very painful decision as they spent significant…
Eight-time NBA All-Star Anthony Davis, who played just seven minutes in Saturday’s loss to the Portland Trail Blazers and told reporters after the game that he is throwing up frequently due to stomach illness, said that he was still having some troubles during Monday night’s overtime win against the Charlotte Hornets. He said that he vomited between the 3rd and 4th quarter, but that they needed this win so that was the main reason why he wanted to stay on the court and help his team to secure the victory: “We needed a win mostly, we wasn’t losing this game”…
Another awful taunting call by the refs was made against the Chicago Bears’ linebacker Cassius Marsh in Monday night’s 29-27 loss against the Pittsburgh Steelers, as he celebrated after sacking Ben Roethlisberger. Marsh was excited as the play he made would have led to the Steelers punting the ball away with a 3-point lead late in the fourth quarter. He celebrated with a kick in the air and by looking towards the sidelines after that and got a little emotional during that celebration, but the ref thought he got carried away. “First of all, keep in mind that taunting is…
