The History of the Quebec Nordiques
My name is Clyde E. Dawkins, and I am a Quebec Nordiques fan. That was my team when I started following hockey at the age of seven. I was fascinated by the team names when I read them in the sports section. Whalers, North Stars, Flames, Islanders. I would see team names I saw in other sports: Rangers, Oilers, Jets. But the name that stood out the most to me was "Nordiques." At the time, I knew very little about hockey. Also, this was the early 1990s. As I would find out, I wouldn't have time to enjoy the Nordiques, as the team moved away in 1995. I would learn about hockey history and each team's history as I got older and after I got cable, making it easier to actually watch hockey. Because of this, I can properly detail the history of the Quebec Nordiques, as shaky as it is.

As someone who loved the original XFL in 2001, I was so, so elated when the league was coming back in 2020. The XFL returned less than a week after Super Bowl LIV was played, and from what I saw, it looked good. It looked really good. I do admit that the 2001 version did have its problems, but I did love it and enjoy it. I mean, come on. Who wouldn't love the concept of watching professional football in the late winter and early spring months? And the rules were much different from what we saw in the NFL. But while the league looked very upstart-ish in 2001, in 2020, it looked like whatever mistakes were made 19 years prior were fixed. Nothing could stop the XFL this time.

Since the arrival of Qatari money PSG have mostly dominated Ligue 1, but during the first few years of their Qatar Sports Investment takeover it’s fair to say Les Parisiens struggled. In the 2011–12 campaign the newly super wealthy club spent €82 million under Carlo Ancelotti’s leadership. The Ligue 1 champions that year? Montpellier. Yes, La Paillade and manager Rene Girard stunned the footballing world to win their first ever league title.

Another week, another exciting fixture awaiting Tottenham Hotspur. Its a local derby, a team in the bottom three, a chance to move into the top 4 and the opportunity to condemn our rivals to another week spent in the relegation zone. Yet, on our part, I didn't sense much in the way of enthusiasm before the match. Recent hammerings have sucked some of the fun out of our game and with West Ham coming to town, the first team not just to breach our defence, but beat us outright at our new stadium, the same West Ham that stole a draw here 3-0 down with 10 minutes to play, the negative headlines had begun to write themselves. On our part, I detected only antipathy leading up to the game. That was until 3.30 in the afternoon.
