NBA Season Is Back

    My favorite time of the year is back, the NBA season. The NBA season officially began two weeks ago and I have been watching it non-stop. Being a college basketball player, I love being able to watch the game and learn from the best to do it. I am a huge Cleveland Cavaliers fan, but I am also a die-hard LeBron James fan, so I also root for the Los Angeles Lakers. As of today, the Cavaliers have the best record in the league and the Lakers have the worst record in the league. 

    A lot of people don't enjoy watching the NBA because of how long the season is, or the lack of effort, but I thoroughly enjoy it, especially during the playoffs. To me, you are watching the best players in the world, go head-to-head at a high level every game. The difference between the college level and the NBA is insane and I have a ton of respect for everyone that can play at that level. I also look forward to the nationally broadcasted games that usually take place almost every day of the week on ESPN, ABC, or TNT. When the game is on national television, players tend to go harder than normal and put on a show for the fans. 

    Whether or not you watch the NBA, it is one of my favorite times of the year. I am beyond excited to watch basketball every night and better learn the game of basketball. We should feel grateful that we are to have such a great sport to watch in America.

  1. Adam, I personally am a fan of the Lakers (Kobe, not LeBron) and they are not doing great. We've had some injuries already, but I hope they turn it around. Basketball is a great game to watch and I thoroughly enjoy every second!

Back on Campus

    After a much needed time off from athletics and academics, it is great to be back on campus. I was very thrilled to go home for a couple of long days. I wasn't only happy to go home because it was first time home in a month, but also because it will be last time home till Thanksgiving. We start our first week of practice this Friday and once that starts it is almost impossible to go home, so I made sure to enjoy my break.             I have always cherished my time I get when I am back home because you never know what can happen and when it could be your last time. That sounds very straight-forward but is the reality of life. As I stated, we start our basketball season this week and I am beyond focused and ready to start my third year on the basketball court. I am especially excited this year because I know the potential this team has this season especially since we are a lot older and more experienced now.      In the...

College Football Playoffs

     In 2014, college football finally introduced the idea we had been waiting on, The College Football Playoffs. This meant that instead of only two teams getting a chance at the national championship, it would know be four teams. Everyone that enjoys college football was very happy when this was announced.       The first year it was introduced, the final four teams happened to be Ohio State, Oregon, Alabama, and Florida State. In the first round, Oregon defeated Florida State and Ohio State defeated Alabama in an instant classic. This meant it would end up being Oregon versus Ohio State in the championship game. Ohio State went on to defeat Oregon by a score of 42-20 and celebrated winning the first ever college football national championship. I still remember Ohio State winning this game and I lost my mind. I thought it was awesome to see Ohio State win the national championship, but especially with it being the first year of the playoffs. ] ...

The Place to Be

    If you are a sports fan, Cleveland is the place to be right now. Writing that first sentence makes me extremely happy because I have been a die-hard Cleveland sports fan for 22 years now. Trust me, during those 22 years there has been plenty of ugly and not as many smiles. Outside of the Cavaliers winning the NBA championship in 2016, there hasn't been a lot of positives for Cleveland sports fan, but that has finally changed.      First, let's talk about the Cleveland Browns. We all know about them, mostly bad, but that seems to be changed. They are currently 1-0 with one of the best rosters in the NFL. Outside of that, they also signed their future franchise quarterback to a big-time contract. Also, they have one of the best running backs, offensive linemen, and defensive linemen in the whole entire league. For me, this is an exciting time to be a Cleveland Brown fan, especially to see what the future holds for them. I can't pick a favorite Cleveland sports...
