Talking about college and professional football daily. Chances are we hate your team.
Fly Eagles, Fly
A change of pace is always a good thing. I have memories and stories of my life, and it’s weird writing about it now because I have children that are my age when I was a totally different person. But their lives have played out way different than mine did. The one common factor in all of our childhoods were love. Everyone was loved and loved in return. This story is about my love for the Philadelphia Football Eagles. I can’t remember when exactly I fell in love with them, some say that I was born with it, but I can remember when I began to hate the Dallas Cowboys.
James S. CarrPublished 3 years ago in UnbalancedTrask in the Glory
Kyle Trask is no stranger to being in someone's shadow, he's been in a few different quarterback's shadows. From D'Eriq King at Manvel high school, to Felipe Franks with the Gators. Trask would enter into games for Manvel after they would get up early and get an opportunity to play. Trask's problem at Manvel wasn't his ability, his head coach even refered to Trask as QB1B, while King was QB1A. King was just a better fit for Manvel's spread offense with his running ability and Trask was more of a pocket passer. Trask and King pushed each other every day while in highschool and while King gained all the "critical acclaim" Trask still got his opportunities to prove his worth in games, throwing 16 Touchdowns to 0 interceptions.
Nick ConditPublished 3 years ago in UnbalancedThankful for the Lions
The Lions on TV and Thanksgiving Day, it's a tradition that families across America have come to know across the years. As a football fan, I love watching all games, no matter the teams playing, and Thanksgiving day is no different for me. First, a little history into how the Lions started playing on Thanksgiving and why it's important. It all started in 1934 when then owner George Richards, who also owned a radio station affiliated with NBC Blue network, negotiated a contract to broadcast the teams games on Thanksgiving across 94 stations across the country. The Lions were playing second fiddle to the Detroit Tigers when it came to "sports notoriety" in that era so Richards chose to have his team play on Thanksgiving hoping to draw a bigger crowd to his team. Teams had played on Thanksgiving before, but because of his radio station he was able to get a day where the whole nation heard his football team, and only his team, it was a smash hit. The Lions not only sold out their stadium the first year that they played this game, they had to turn people away at the gate. It was a losing effort against the Chicago Bears, but it became a new team tradition.

It’s week 11. The season is moving so fast and 2020’s moving like a turtle in molasses. I’m not sure how that’s even possible but it is. Moving along from the year, another week means another lineup of games to predict, so here are my picks for week 11, guys.

So another week of NFL games is gone. It was my best week so far, and there’s still a little room to improve. Week 10 produced down-to-the-wire games like the Lions vs Washington game, and beautiful blowouts like the Buccaneers vs Panthers game. It also produced a lot of W’s for me. Let’s get into the review.

SUNDAY GAMES @ 1:00 BRONCOS VS FALCONS PREDICTION: 24-14 I picked against the Falcons last week, and lost. But I’m going to do it again. I really don’t think they pick up two wins two weeks in a row, and this Broncos team, who had a rough out-of-the-gate schedule playing the Titans, Steelers and the Buccaneers, are in a rhythm. They’re 3-1 in their last 4 games, that loss coming to the Chiefs.
