It was a week of major shakeups in the Associated Press (AP) college football rankings, with Texas reclaiming the No. 1 spot on Sunday after Vanderbilt pulled off a stunning upset against Alabama.

CFL Week 17 Recap: How the East Was Won
I have been tied up writing about the NFL and baseball's postseason, that I've been admittedly lazy when it comes to writing about the CFL. I have been watching the games for sure. One game I definitely watched was Week 17's finale between the Toronto Argonauts and the Montréal Alouettes, and this was an important one--mainly for the Boatmen. We were falling behind in the Eastern standings, but thankfully, we did managed to get things going against the reigning, defending, undisputed Grey Cup Champions. The Argos won, 37-31, and stayed alive in the playoff hunt.

NFL Week 4 Recap: The Debate is Over
Lamar Jackson is leagues ahead of Josh Allen. Accept it. The main reason why I was excited for the Sunday Night Football contest between the Baltimore Ravens and the Buffalo Bills was because it was Lamar vs Josh Allen. These are two QBs who play the same way: they run it as much as they throw it. Here's the thing. When Josh Allen does it, he's a "great quarterback." But when Lamar does it, "he's a runningback, not a quarterback." We all know why they say that about Lamar. It's because he just happens to look like me, if you know what I mean.
