New England vs Miami Dolphins Win over Tom Brady

Getting a break from the snow and ice, New England Patriots are playing at Miami Dolphins Stadium.   With the warm sun shining the England Patriots are feeling good.  Tom Brady can break-out at any moment, or he can break-down at any moment.  Let's see what happen. 

With Tom Brady warm and ready to play, he gets into position and throws a great pass. Until it was intercepted by #31 Michael Thomas  from the Miami Dolphins.  To Thomas surprise he spotted a ball coming his way and made the effort to kick the excitement into gear.  Then the fire moves on with the Miami Dolphins and never stopped.  The plays were made, the ball kept coming and the Dolphins kept making the touchdowns happen.

With New England slow start this game surly picked up excitement in the 2nd half.  New England Patriots began to make touchdowns and came back slowly to make a run to beat the Miami Dolphins, but the slow start ended without bang.  The Dolphins clearly wanted a Wild Card spot for the playoff and they now have it.  They came into the game knowing that this game was a make or break it spot. They did what they had to win the game and reserve a spot in the Wild Card. Great job Dolphins, you guys have a chance move forward into the playoffs. 

As for Tom Brady, sorry Tom, this this game goes to the Miami Dolphins.  They played well against the Patriots and showed just how much they needed and wanted the win. 

NE 20, MIA 24

Tom Brady has played well all season long and it's surprising that we see a loss from his team near the end of the season.  Will the Patriots lose more games before the playoffs?   Or will we see the Patriots break-out in the next few games?  Stay tune to find out.

Miami Heat vs Indiana Pacers Pressure Game

Heat loses again but not worried about taking the 1st Division seed for the playoffs.  The Heat are trying to form a good well-rounded team.  Being an older team, they are looking for a good healthy balance . 

Coach Erik Spoelstra is taking the pressure off his starting team in order to have them compete healthy.  He knows the importance of keeping his older team from injuries that are bound to occur.  By changing his coaching, Erik is making room for his older team to play healthy while on the court.  He has acquired good help from Beasley and Mr. (Birdman) Andersen to fill the gap.  With the extra added help, Coach Spoelstra is sure to develop a good healthy older team to play as long as they can without the injuries. 

So Miami Heat wants the pressure taken off them to seed the No.1 Division playoff seat.  They want to get into the playoffs without the pressure of completing at a high level.  Miami understands they are an older team and understand being No. 1 is not the best for their team.  Being in the playoffs has become one goal over being No.1 in the Division.   

So Indiana Pacers took the lead after a slow start.  Being focus and playing with lots of talent has taken them to this win. The Pacers are a young team with a lot of good healthy talent.  They can play long minutes and still produce good number's.  The Pacers are a team that can take the lead late in the 3rd quarter and keep the momentum going for the win.   

I'm loving these Indiana Pacers, they are focused on the outcome.  They are playing every game like they are in the playoffs.  They have decided that each night they play, it will be one step closer to the finals.

Kudos Pacers!!! Well done!!! 

Can the Heat recover after losing several games in a row?  Will Coach Spoelstra new coaching technique survive the change before the season is over?  Or will the new technique bring the Heat back to the No.1 spot in their Division?

I'm watching to see what happens with the Heat because Coach Spoelstra new technique may be more mentally exhausting to absorb with the extra added help, than playing longer minutes with your starting team.  Hmm care to share?

Carolina Panthers vs New Orleans Saints 9-3 Division Leaders

Trying to clinch the 1st Division playoff spot, the Panthers and the Saints are ready for action.  They know each game is critical to win and both quarterbacks understand the pressure.   Both teams will respond to the call.  So who will win tonight's game? 

Carolina Panthers #1 Cam Newton is ready to show off his skills.  He's ready to put those great percentage numbers to work.  He coming at the Saints with all he has.  But tonight Cam can't Jam.  Trying everything Cam can't seen to hit a good play against the Saints.  Struggling on the field with plays, the Carolina Panthers can't seem to complete. The Saints are running Cam in the ground.  Sacking him every chance they get.  Poor guy will be sore this morning (laughing).  The Panthers are certainly frozen and can't seem to move or remember how to play this game.  Penalty after penalty are called on the Panthers and puts a big d-e-n-t in their game.

The Saints are playing well and headed to the 1st Division playoff spot.  Carolina had a chance to get into this game.  But with not being covered well and sacked so many times, Cam could not loose the ball.  And when he did the Panthers were confused on how to receive it.  The Panthers were numb but hope to see them heat-up for the next game.

Congrats Saints on the Win. CAR 13, NO 31 


NFC South Division standings now,  NO 10-3, CAR 9-4./Win loss games

Will the Panthers move the Saints from the top of the Division list?  It's possible with a few more games left to play the Panthers just may heat up the competition.  Can't wait to see what happens.

STL Rams vs Arizona Cardinals MVP Game

Arizona Cardinals are playing at home and have a great record with winning home games.  The Rams know this but also know that this is a must win game coming from losing the last couple.  The Rams have to make it work.  They have to put a win in sight.  And this is the call of the moment.  So let's see what happens.

Starting with Cardinals #11 Larry Fitzgerald.  He's looking good and making the 1st catch of the evening.  Great job Fitzgerald.  He is ready for this game.  He's taking off to a great start and so is Cardinals #21 Peterson.  Running the ball Peterson takes a out of bound personal hit by the Rams.  Not good Rams this take the Cardinals up 15 yards with the personal foul in the 1st quarter.  Cardinals are feeling great now and with the help of quarterback Palmer they slide into the 1st touchdown for the evening. 

They are running some great plays,  They are  gelling together and they know it. With kicking the return ball to the Rams at the one yard line, the Cardinals snap a safety fold.  Not what the Rams were looking for.  But the Cardinals are happy to accept the 2-point fold and get ball back in their hands. 

After struggling the 1st half,  Rams #11 Austin takes the kick return ball down field. Now Austin is playing some great ball for the Rams, but can't win the game by himself.  Rookie Austin is catching well and running well.  Dipping into pockets and coming out alive.  So he takes the Rams downfield and they are now close enough for a quick touchdown. Giving the ball to running back Stacy made a great play.  He see an opening and takes the ball through.  Finally a touchdown by the Rams.  Scores stands STL 10, ARI 23.

So the Rams are playing to move up the ladder. They see an opportunity.  They see a chance to turn this game around.  They are ready and so is Quarterback #10 Clemons.  On the field Clemons moves to increase the Rams score.  With trying several plays and not covered well, Clemons take a hard hit that leaves him down a few minutes.  This is not looking good.  But Clemons determine to recover and help his team, gets back into the game and to his surprise throws an interception and the Cardinals respond with a touchdown. OUCH!!!  It's all over now Score STL 10, ARI 30

The Cardinals Win the Game.  Can the Cardinals continue to play well at home?  Can they play just as well on the Road?  Tune in to find out.  But before we sign out let's talk a little MVP from the night.

MVP of the night is Cardinals #11 Larry Fitzgerald, he is having a great football game.  Rams knew he was the one to watch for and they were doing so.  But Larry Fitzgerald was taking the Rams on.  Making the 1st down, 2nd down, and touchdowns, and taking the Arizona Cardinals to a win over the STL Rams.  Larry Fitzgerald was clearly the MVP in the game.  He looked good and felt good.  Larry is playing some great ball right now.  I look forward to seeing more of him on the field.

Miami Heat vs Chicago Bulls Must Win Game

Miami Heat are looking for a win.  What they didn't know was that the Bulls were TOO-HOT-TOO-TROT.  The Bulls were on fire!!!!  They felt the Heat and wanted to put out the fire.  Playing without Rose, the Bulls knew exactly what needed to be done.  They had a plan and that plan worked from beginning to end. 






Coming out LeBron James is playing hard for his team.  He is making shots count and even playing triple point plays.  As we can see James was concerned about winning this game and wanted to make every basket count.  Coming from a hard loss to the Detroit Pistons, the Heat are trying to figure out how to get the rhythm going for a win.  Nothing seemed to help.  With bringing in a little action from the bench, those guys brought their scoring up a few points, but not enough to bring them close to seeing a win.



Chicago was clearly giving the Heat TROUBLE.  The Bulls were playing with confidence.  They had set-in their minds, this is a win, win game.  Whatever it takes.  They knew they had to attack the Heat early on and keep the rhythm going until the end. 

The Bulls were having a great night, but N O A H was having a BIGGER night.  He was making unbelievable shots.  Slipping into pockets and ending with a POW, POW, BANG, BANG. Great job Noah, this was certainly your night.  And the fans enjoyed it.  The Bulls has become a very competitive team.  They are in the Teams to beat.  Watch for these guys in the Post Season.  They are preparing well.

If they continue to have BIG nights, who will step up to their challenge?

Brooklyn Nets vs New York Knicks Shooting one Win at a Time

Starting off both teams are playing well.  Both teams wants to win.  With both Teams at the bottom of their NBA Division list, they know how important it is to start winning games.   And both coaches are making sure their team understand this.   

Jason Kidd is on the floor sending signs to his players on running screens. He's pushing his team to play smart and better.  Kidd wants continuous momentum throughout the game.  But he's struggling with sending this message and to bring his team up to play.  With Paul Pierce and Deron Williams out with injuries, Brooklyn Nets only have a few player that can shoot point baskets.  Kidd is believing with all confidence that his team can play better in time.  But the question is, do  they  have  time? 

Coach Mike Woodson is doing what a coach normally does, he's coaching and wants his team to win because he
knows they are also at the bottom of the list.  Woodson is telling his team, guys, give them one shot at a time to allow us the ball back.  Mike noticed that Brooklyn was scooping up a shot and a rebound and a rebound in one play.  He knew that if they kept going after the ball and getting it this game could turn bad.  With great listeners the Knicks responds to Woodson call.

Knicks kicks things into actions and keeps the game going to their advantage.  With Brooklyn struggling the Knicks are happy to be playing well.  Well done Knicks!! Topping off the win with 30 points over, Brooklyn still showed sportsmanship and congratulated them with the win.

Nets 83, Knicks 113

Can these two Coaches move their teams from the bottom of the list?  If so how long will it take them?

SF 49ers Host STL Rams Physical Game

One physical game.

Two rival teams battling it out for the win.  Both teams are looking for a fight early in the game.  49ers #15 Crabtree starting it off and it seem like the other players on both teams follow him.  Not good guys.  Flags are coming down and they are all well deserved. 

With the Play of the Day, 49ers #85 Vernon Davis is making plays and jumping hurdles for the next down.  Beautiful guys just beautiful.  To see Vernon Davis in the air to catch the ball and hurdles over the Rams player was a beautiful sight.  Just when you thought he was about to fall, Vernon Davis steps in stride and move it down field. 

Moving on into the 1st half, both teams are playing hard to make a touchdown but can't seem to reach the en-zone.  Both teams are scratching their heads and adjusting plans to see if anything will help make a touchdown happen.  

Coming in the 2nd half the 49ers have figured it out.  Bam, the touchdowns begin and the party is on.  The 49ers are feeling good and making plays happen.  Rams are not happy at all with hitting field goals so the emotions and tension starts to flare.  Yep you guess it, the fights begins.  Flags are flying all over the place and players are pushing and shoving each other with penalties against them. 

At the end the 49ers have done it again, they won the game like a team.  As for the Rams looks like they won the fight and need some help on how to control those emotions on the field.  STL 13, SF 23

 

But one thing I did notice, is that no one is eyeing Colin Kaepernick, this guy have open room to run the next down without a touch.  Rams have to know that Colin plays all positions and you cannot take your eye off this guy, because when you do, he has made the play. 

With a new home coming the 49ers are preparing well for a Warm Welcome.

Will the 49ers play this well in their new home?
Can Colin Kaep. run the plays without a touch?

Golden State Warriors vs Oklahoma Thunders Shocking Results

Oklahoma Thunders are at it again. 

With under seconds left to play, Oklahoma Thunders had one last chance to seal a second tie breaker.  But what, oh no, an out of bound ball was saved by Oklahoma and tossed to # 0 Russell Westbrook.  Westbrook believing in himself to find his position for a 3-point shot.  Done- it's good and the Thunders are in the lead to seal the deal.  Warriors only had 1 split second to make a play and missed the opportunity.

Shocking so shocking.  Golden State and Oklahoma  played a great game which lead both teams to a tiebreaker overtime.  With Golden State sure to have this game in their pocket, Oklahoma surprised them with a last second win.  So sorry Warriors, it really looked like you guys were in the spotlight to win the game, and just when you blinked the Thunders pulled up the win.

Final OT    GS 115, OK 116

SF 49ers vs NO Saints POW WOW Game

Can the New Orleans Saints Brees through  a win with San Francisco 49ers? 

Playing at the Saints Stadium the fans are loud and loving it.  Colin Kaepernick is having a rough time calling his plays.  His team mates can't hear him nor can he hear himself.  With all this noise New Orleans makes the 1st touchdown.  Now this could be the plan the fans had at the start of the game.

Moving on and coming from out of no where the 49ers #84 Anquan Boldin makes a beautiful End Zone catch for a touchdown but the play was called a incomplete pass.  Not good at first.  Until the official touchdown arrived.   Colin Kaepernick throws a pass and #81 Jon Baldwin from the 49ers makes the catch to even the score.   This game is getting exciting.  Scores stands SF 7, NO 7.

Unexpectedly we have a turnover and New Orleans have the ball moving fast for another touchdown.  Colin Kaepernick tackles New Orleans Saint himself and he loses the ball.  Throws it right into the End Zone and a TOUCHBACK is now called on the play.  So the 49ers saved the turnover and turned it around to their advantage. What an exciting 2 minutes that was in the 1st half.  To see Kaepernick run as fast as he could to save a turnover and make the tackle was great. This guy has no fears. He wants to win at all cost.

Working hard to reach the field goal line the 49ers makes it to the 55 yard line.  Remember this is the 55 yard line and they take a chance on the kicker to take the lead.  Kicker #9 Phil Dawson, kicks the ball and it passes through.  What a day it was for him.  Excellent job!!!  You just scored a new record.  Score moves to SF 10, NO 7

But wait another touchdown by the Saints #45 Collins. He has not given up and takes his chance to take the lead. Kudos Collins the Saints are in the lead by 4 points and the 49ers are searching for a way up at half-time.

Coming back from half-time the 49ers waste no time making errors.  They hit a touchdown and the Saints are surprised.  With under 4 minutes left to paly Drew Brees take a hard hit to the neck/shoulder that takes him down.  A penalty called on the 49ers and takes the Saints up 15 yards but has trouble making a touchdown but nails a field goal to tie the score SF 20, NO 20

Having a minute left to play the Saints gets the ball back and are moving towards the field goal line. They reach a comfortable spot and put the faith in their kicker and the rest is history.  New Orleans pulled off the win after making several mistakes but bounced back with a determination to pull it together.

Congrats New Orleans you guy's just beat the 49ers.  SF 20, NO 23.  Will these two teams meet again before the season is over and if so who will win the game?

HOU Rockets Vs New York Knicks featuring LinSanity.

Back were it all started.  Can Jeremy Lin shake off any jitters on his return visit to Madison-Square Garden?  Let's find out. 

With a slow start and Lin on the bench at the beginning of the game, the Knicks kicks things into action.  Carmelo Anthony is moving well for the second day in a row. He is showing off his talent and making baskets count.  Houston is trying to get their rhythm going and being patient with the progress.  After the first half Houston brings Lin in the game, the Knicks are unsure how to respond.  Linsanity just got back. By half-time Houston found their way and is up by one point.  But rest assure the Knicks are still insight.  HOU 53, NY 52

With feeling comfortable in his old home, Lin has control of the ball, moving great, spotting openings, shooting 3-pointers, he's made the most of his visit.  His teammates knew it was his time to shine so they let L I N  S H I N E.  I just love this guy.  He has no fears and knows that tomorrow is not promise.  So he makes the best of every game, but this one is truly special.  To play in Madison Square Garden is an honor but to play against the team that could not balance faith, talent and $$$ in him is another thing.  Lin has shaken off all those jitters and has planted himself  as a great NBA player.  One intelligent guy playing one intelligent game and keeping it clean, what more can you ask for. 

So let's move to the excitement of the night.  Guy's this is good.  Carmelo hits a 3-point basket just when a foul was called and takes him to the line.  You would have thought that this was going to tie the game for overtime, but the Refs. spotted a foul that took Melo to the free throw line.  The fans went wild at first, then the ruling came down and people were stunned to hear the results.  Team players reacting upset and fans unhappy.  Not good for the Knicks.   Click below to see for yourself. http://cdn3.sbnation.com/assets/3573851/melogod.gif

With 5 seconds left to play Houston looks for an opening, find Harden and he's fouled.  Another great free thrower at the line and you don't won't this.  But the Knicks had not choice hoping to see if he would miss and get the ball back.  He nails both baskets and win the game.  Sorry Knicks, coming from a great win the other night over Atlanta I surely thought you guys could pull up another win before the weekend.  HOU 109, NY 106

Can the Knicks recover from Linsanity night in Madison-Square Garden?  Stay tune to see what happens.

New York vs Atlanta open 3-point Basket Game

How many 3-point baskets can one team make in one game? 

This was the question early on for the New York Knicks.  Feeling very confident the Knicks are burning up that outer line shooting 3-point baskets with certainty.  WOW, this was unbelievable.  We have J.R. Smith, Carmelo Anthony, Prigioni, Shumpert, Hardaway, and Bargnani all scoring 3-point baskets.  Melo is not only shooting 3-point baskets but jamming the ball from left to right . With a beautiful turn around lay-up he's using the paint to his advantage.

Atlanta is still hopeful and hanging with the Knicks at half-time.  Creating some turnovers and working hard to get the ball in the basket, Atlanta see a chance to press forward.  So in the 4th quarter Atlanta takes the lead.   The fans are loving it right now and making some noise.

But wait, here we go again with Knicks 3-point shooting.  With 6 minutes left to play Melo gets the ball and pops in another 3-point basket.  Then Bargnani shoots a 3-pointer and it goes in.  You can only imagine the Knicks bench right now.  No one is sitting over there, they are too hyped to take a seat.  The Knicks are confident right about now.

With trying to find a way to win this game, Atlanta is running screens and looking to put the ball in the basket.  They find an opening and pops in a 3-pointer.  Great effort guys but not enough.  The Knicks had far too many 3-point shooters on their team that wanted a piece of the action.  They were a little more confident with hitting winning baskets.  So here you have it,  Knicks 95, Atlanta 91

Great road game Knicks.  Tell me, how many 3-point baskets can the team make in one game?

HOU vs 76ers Slamming Hot Game

Wednesday night just got hotter!

With the excitement so high this game was to good to miss, but the ending is what people crave to see. Slamming on Howard, Spencer from the 76ers is determine to win this game.  Spencer puts a high flying slam on Dwight Howard after trying to rebound from what we thought was a no go for the 76ers.  Spencer came from behind Howard and surprised him with a dunk behind the back of his head that was sure to go in.  OUCH!    Guy's this was too good to miss but the reply looked better in   s l o w  m o t i o n.  Howard shook it off but I  know he was surprised by the look on his face, he had no idea Spencer was going to take him on.

Moving on we have Linsanity feeling his spot.  He is coming at the 76ers with powerful energy and playing with, lets turn this game around team, I got your back.  Lin pops in a 3-pointer to keep the excitement rolling near the end of the game to come within a point away from the victory.  The 76ers are surprised but still wants to win this game. Then here comes Lin again, tries another  3-pointer to take the lead and the ball is blocked by the 76ers and the Rockets sends them to the free throw line.  All baskets are in and there you have it, 76ers in the celebration zone.  HOU 117, 76ers 123

What a tremendous game and start for the Philadelphia 76ers, these guys are playing some great ball here at the start of the season.  They are pushing wins at the Heat of every game.

Incredible game, STL Rams are playing their hearts out and playing like a team.  Scoring 2 touchdowns in the 1st half the Rams are confident  With protecting their end zone, and not giving the Colts and inch near the touchdown line Rams are moving ahead.

With all this excitement, the Rams picks up a KICK-CATCH-TOUCHDOWN RETURN.  WOW! The Rams are dancing at the end zone and celebrating at Colts Stadium.  Now this is crazy.  It's been too long since the Rams felt this good and looked this good too (laughing).  Score stands at STL 21, IND 0.

Then, oh no, Rams rookie Austin makes another touchdown before halftime, YIKES.  Colts team players are angry and fans are SHOCKED.  With their hands covering their faces and resting on their heads questions are flying through the stadium.  Is this our team playing at home?  Can we make a touchdown or even a field goal?  With all the confusion and questions the Colts are clueless on how to beat a team that has lost the last several games.  Clueless!  With the Score sitting at STL 28, IND 0, the colts are too embarrassed to walk on the field, but hasn't given up hope.

With bring hope alive, the Colts finally makes a touchdown and the fans respond like it was the winning touchdown.

LA Clippers Suprising Loss aganist Miami Heat

Hanging at halftime the Clippers are putting the Heat on Miami.   LA is staying alive and ahead of the game.  With Blake taking on James, James creates an offensive foul  (now you know James is not happy with this call).  Then Blake taking on Wade with a great block that sends the ball and Wade flying past the goal.  Gosh did Blake just do all this?  Yes indeed he did.  He is really pushing himself against the Heat and wants to stay ahead of the game.  Blake is looking for a WIN, WIN game.

But in the 2nd half of the game, it turns into and offensive foul circus for the Clippers.  Just about every run, every jump, and every move was called an offensive foul on the Clippers.  With the Clippers having great rhythm in the 1st and 2nd quarter you are sure to say they were trying to put out the fire.  But with all the offensive fouls the Heat prevailed, crushed the Clippers motivation and took home the prize.

So sorry Clippers this makes 2 losses in a row.  Can LA Clippers recover for the next game?  I sure hope so, let see what happens.

LA Clippers Smoking Hot Game

Houston Rockets vs LA Clippers


We have old man James Harden, smiley face Dwight Howard and Lin sanity Jeremy Lin, all ready to take on the LA Clippers.  But one thing we didn't know was that it was still HOT in LA.  Chris Paul, Blake Griffin and J.J. Redick ready to sizzle you out of  your seat. Oh baby babyyyy, baby babyyyyy!!  That is exactly what the Clippers were singing all night.   Well alright here we go.

Howard found himself in foul trouble early in the 1st quarter and takes a seat on the bench.  Now is this my dominate player? Does he know how to play the game and stay in the game?  Is this going to be a pattern?   He has got to learn not to get caught up in that early foul trouble trivia.   Oh gosh, somebody help him!!

So of course LA Clippers spotted he was gone and ran with it.  This is just what happened last night.  These guys just wanted to run the ball.  Talk about a high energy game.  Both teams put up tons of points before half-time but my goodness, can we at least slow it down and play like a team.  It seems that when one person had the ball they wanted the shot instead of setting up a play for the team.

But wait, what a night for J.J. Redick.  He was not only hot but smoking.  J.J. is that come from the bench ex-plo-sive player, but tonight he started smoking early and kept the rhythm.  Kudos J.J.  love that energy and that "I'm in" mind game. " You got game buddy" and gave LA the high energy they needed to slam dunk it.  I'm looking for more from you.  I loved to see you play in Orlando but LA has brought you out buddy.  WOW! 

Sorry Houston, with James Harden not finding a way to play and Jeremy Lin trying to play for James and Howard absence, Houston did not have a clue. What a shutdown by LA Clippers. Houston Rockets left picking up there lips.  Ouch!!!!

Can Howard stay out of foul trouble early?   Who knows, but we will see?

Brooklyn turns up the Heat

 

Do we have a relationship here with Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett playing together again for the Brooklyn Nets?  Do we see a relationship that has flourish with Pierce and K G, meshing well with the Nets?  Could the relationship between Miami and Brooklyn be broken?  Let's find out the answer to these questions.

Giving Miami Heat a run for their money the Nets are staying alive and ahead of the game.  Miami is trying to figure this thing out.  Hey "we're the CHAMPS", you're not.  What are we doing wrong?  As fans can see there were just to many lead guys telling each other what they

needed to do right.  BIG MISTAKE. As everyone has been telling the Heat, you can only have one lead and as many followers you want.  But when you have more leads than followers you run right into problems.

Ok, here we go, with under 10 seconds left to play my favorite baller Ray Allen, (you know, the guy who use to play with Paul Pierce and KG), gets fouled and go to the free throw line.  Now we all know Ray Allen is not the one to send to the free throw line, he has one of the best percentages of making free throws in the NBA,(shouting) so don't foul him to go to the line.  So we sit on our hands and hope he makes a mistake.  He nails the 1st free throw, as we assumed and blows the 2nd, surprise, what a big mistake with under 10 seconds to play.  He is feeling the pressure from his fellow team mates. Then we have my friend Paul Pierce being foul, yeh!!! Paul Pierce prevails gets both shots into the basket and begin to celebrate before the game was over. Yes, Mr. Drama himself.

Moving on, we have Lebron James with the ball and hits a 3-pointer to make the game MIA 98 and BKN 99.  Oh no, this is not happening. So Brooklyn Nets takes the ball and make a basket.  Ok we can breath again.   Then Miami gets the ball back and KG fouls Bosh, what a smart move.  Takes him to the line and he hits two of his two free throws. But the Nets are still ahead by one. Then out of no where, Brooklyn out smarts the Heat and win the game.  Finally!!!  Well, Miami was not happy.  And once again James removed his Jersey on the court before he hit the locker room.  Please James just wait a few minutes without the camera on you before removing your Jersey.  People see this stuff on T.V.  My goodness!!

Sorry Miami Heat, Brooklyn Nets just got Hotter!!  Or were they already heated. Let's find out as the season roll on.

What a team.  I mean it's one thing to have Jon Gruden sports cast, which is a great announcer but Mike Tirico the legend of all sports, casting for Stl. Rams, that is just phenomenon.  This is one special appearance from Mike and any team would be honored to have him in the house.  You got to love his dedication to the world of  sports.  He is one of the best to see at any sports event.   I just love it. 

Alright lets see if we can throw this thing call a football.  First up Sam Bradford Stl Rams quarterback, out for the season with a schedule ACL surgery.  Sam is showing a whole lot of sportsmanship while on the injured list and is working practices and sidelines games to help the Rams win.  He's still the man even on the sideline.  Imagine that (smiling).

So We have #10 Clemons Stl Rams starting quarterback and he's looking good.  Actually excited to be on the field.  With all this excitement Rams surprisingly makes the 1st down and they are happy just for a moment.  Then they find themselves a few yards back due to movement on their team, what a starting disappointment.

Coming from out of no where we have #30 Zac Stacy, Steven Jackson replacement.  He's working it hard to win this game.  He moves well, dips and picks up speed and can zap to the next down if your not looking.  All this for a turnover and Seahawks picks up and move the ball back down field.  Stl Rams Clemons and Zack or both scratching their heads trying to figure this thing out in the 1st quarter.

But wait, another turnover in the 2nd quarter, oh no!!  Then here comes the touchdown, oh no and Seattle scores and Rams are still confused.  Score stands at Sea 7, Stl 3. And just when you thought things are smoothing out, what, another turnover and another touchdown by Seattle #81 Tate in the 3rd quarter.  Unsettling, Just unsettling. 

Rams are working hard now to find a way out and move ahead.  But before they come up with a plan, Zac Stacy suffered a foot injury that has him sidelined.  Big problems. Clemons still confused is now left searching soles to make plays.  But there's some hope.  4th quarter Rams are making plays and moving down field.  Very close to making a touchdown and just when you thought, BAM, yes they can, BAM, no they don't.  Sad, very sad.  Rams could not complete the touchdown for a winning game and Seattle Seahawks becomes an instant winner 14 - 9.  Congrats Seattle you guy's just won another game in Stl House.

Did anything go right for the Rams?

Chasing History

Serena Williams and Li Na,  together at the BNP Paribas, Istanbul, what a match.  Did Serena just achieve one more dream?  Let's find out.  These two  ladies are both in their early 30's and playing some great tennis.  Both physically fit and moving well.  You don't know who to cheer for.  Yeh "We  Love Li Na", Yeh  " We "Love Serena".  This is just too crazy.

Both players are working hard to reach their dreams and you can clearly see that in them. They are power housing the game to the next level.  I'm just loving Li Na right now.  She is not afraid to move up to the net. It is working well with her and she is playing net ball on the next level. She wants this win and knows that she has to stay posed and in form to see the end.  I can just SCREAM right now "COME ON"!!!

Now things are about to get exciting.  In the 2nd set we see Duce reach to an exciting 9 consecutive levels.  Both ladies want this game and is not giving an inch.  They are going at it and toughing it through for the 1st game in the 2nd set.  How exciting!!!  Li Na is applying her skills and staying pose.   Serena is picking up her form and ready to move to the next level.  At the end Serena finally pulls through the long match to claim the win.  Ooh, so smooth and like it was so easy.  I just love Serena.

By now Serena has found her footage to maximize the match and win the title.  Did she just do that?  Yes she did.  Serena has reached another dream.  How about that.  With a little fatigue, she is Chasing History.  Well done darling. 

Will Serena winning streak last?  If so, how long?  Care to share?

Tennis, Devasting Ending!

Del Potro and Roger Federer has made it to the final match at the Swiss Indoors.  Can Roger win?  That is the question.  Tying the 1st set at 3,3 the crowd is giving Roger the confidence he needs to press on.  He is playing well and moving great. 

Roger looks good from his stylist hair to his great body frame.  I just love a good looking tennis player and Roger Federer has a page in my book.  He always looks great when entering a match and leaving a matching.  I must say his hair is the first thing I look at because it is always well groomed, even when he sweats (laughing but true). 

In the 2nd set, things are looking good for Roger .  He has ant up his step and knows I'm watching his every move.  Roger, along with the crowd of fans, has pushed a 2nd set win over Del Potro.  What an effort and I must say well deserved effort.  Roger looks like he can win this match.  With doing everything to from Acing his first serve to cheesy drop shots, to his Jump in the air with a backhand for a return slice ball.    It definitely looks good on him and scores him a lot of points. One would think this is going to be a great ending.


But wait, there's Del Potro not looking so well and picks up energy in the 3rd set to seal the deal.  Clearly you can see Del's not feeling well, but somehow he manage the hold and wins the match.  Sorry Roger this is definitely a devastating blow.  But, is it mental or physical power your lacking?  Will we see you winning big Trophy's again?  Has Roger time come to a h-a-l-t?  Which will it be?  Will we ever see Roger in the top 2 players list or will he be in the bottom 2 players list?  Share your views and thoughts on his tennis days to come.

Turkey are U out there?

Li Na is in the house,

 

Li Na is a 31 year old women's tennis player from China and she is looking good, healthy, energized and smart.  At 31 Li Na is the powerhouse in Turkey opening BNP.  What a match.  I just love her.  She is one great tennis player and is definitely an outstanding mentor for our female women in sports.

 

As the song goes " age is just a number" and this is one of the reasons why I love today's women tennis.  Reaching the age 31 and over and playing your favorite sports and power housing it is truly an achievement.  '

 

This match was a great practice game for Li against Errani.  With hitting well, sliding well and reaching her next level, Li found that Errani was about to give her one great challenge.  Errani found her footage and her energy and said, OK take me on.   With moving into a tie breaker for the 2nd set Li Na accepted the challenged and dictated Errani every move.  Li Na had pose, composure and best of all patience with a mind to win. 

 

Great match Li Na, you still got it.!!!!!  And waiting to see more.

Can We All Get Along?

This is the question from today's football game between STL RAMS and CAR PANTHERS.  First up no. 91 yep, Chris Long Stl Rams loses his cool and was ruled the 1st player to throw the punch and is thrown out of the game.  See ya!  Not good, and it gets even worst.  While Chis is being escorted off the field, dedicated Carolina Fans decide to give Chris a going home present.  Yep you guess it, the cups started flying from the stadium seats.  Lucky nothing hit Chris and their very own Security System started to pay more attention to what was going on, but before security knew to act, the fans already had a plan.  From the look on Chris Long face he was more than happy to leave the game and have a seat in the locker room by himself.

Then the shocking touchdown by Carolina so we thought.  Wait BAM!!! the call was challenged by Jeff Fisher.   Drum roll please!!!!!!! the ruling stands and Carolina gets the honors of 1st and goal which is disappointment number one.  Then disappointment number 2  happens.  Carolina is hit with a personal foul, can you believe this?  It takes them back some yards and they cannot complete a touchdown.  So they get to kick the field goal and take 3 points. Tight bodies and tempers are flying all over the place while the score stands at Stl 5 & Car 20.  Not bad when your winning (laughing).    Now here comes the breakthrough. The Rams score a touchdown, yehhhhh.

But wait, another fight, another fight, well lets say a missed opportunity for a fight.  No. 21 Rams Jenkins and no. 89 Car Steve Smith have a little run in.  Steve Smith has some moves for Jenkins and pulled a beautiful turn around to avoid Jenkins fist (laughing).  Guy's this was funny and beautiful at the same time to see.  Don't you just love the replay's?   They show it all in slow motion so that you can get the full story the full effect on each call.

Lastly leaving the game in pain, Sam Bradford Stl Rams is sacked and is a ?  Let's see what the MRI shows. Will it be good or will he be sitting out?  Send me your thoughts on what will happen. 

Well I guess by now you can tell Carolina Panthers won the game and Stl RAMS will have another chance to win another game next week.

Shanghai Anyone

 Let's Roll with the punches,

Shanghai Rolex-Masters has just got a little crazier.  Watching Djokovic and Del PoTro battle it out was too much for a tennis game.  Let's do the Jump To.  Last set Del PoTro is staying alive at 5, 4 against Djokovic.  Del pulls up a win and tie the set to 5,5, what a effort.   Djokovic, is not a happy camper and he shows it.  But Del contains his composure then presses on to battle it out and in the tie-breaker.  Now this is shocking and interesting.  Del is showing his "I want this win just as bad as you" and you will have to earn every point until the end in this match.

Both players wants to win and has made mistakes but at the end Djokovic forced the Victory.  What another fantastic win for him.  This guy is really good, really.   Del PoTro gave this match all of his heart and energy but could not hold the win against Djokovic.  So sorry for Del.  U can tell he was upset with himself after the match.  I think he cried a river under that towel hanging on his head. But then realized there will be a next time.  For now Djokovic prevails to move on and stay at the top of the list.    Will he?

Sunday Afternoon Jam!!

 

 

Lets start the motion with the New Team's, yes our New Teams.  New England and New Orleans had one great Sunday afternoon Jam.   Both teams battling it out for the win, working hard to make 1st downs and touch downs.  I truly love the energy and the determination on both sides of the field.  But at the end only one team will win the game and what a WOW factory it was.  Brady has done it again , OH MY GOD!!!  A touch down under seconds making it very difficult for New Orleans to have a chance to win the game.  KUDOS Brady,  you spot your point, aim and threw a winner.  So shocking.  I was in my seat celebrating doing my gaily girl dance to New Orleans win at the last 2 minute mark.   Then, I got the surprise of my afternoon.  Jaw dropping, mouth hanging open and struggling to say "what just happened"?  Did New England really win the game?  Well New England has done it again, pulled up a win just when New Orleans became a little to comfortable with themselves.  Lesson learn guys, " it ant over until it's over" (laughing, this is funny).

 

Moving on.  Hurray!!!!  Rams won another game.  I'm so happy for them.  Jeff Fisher is one great leader and one great coach. Just maybe someone else feel the same, hmm.    Keep up the good work Rams and we may see you guy's in the Payoff's.  Sorry Texans looks like u guys ran out of energy or Gatorade (laughing).  Can anyone tell?

  

Next up, Dallas and Washington Redskins Sunday night game.  Looks like he's back, Tony Romo is on his winning streak and loving every minute.  Congrats Dallas on the late night win against  Washington. 

 

There you have guy's a taste of your Sunday Afternoon Jam.  Will next week be another shocker with a Jam?  Tune in for your reviews and stats and see what happens.

Tennis Surprises!!!!

 

 

Gael Monfils has taken on Roger Federer.  Surprise!!!   What a match!!!!   Rising to the heights of his next level, Monfils has accepted the challenge.  He is saying " bring it on baby, I'm ready".  Monfils uses his athletic skills and ability to move, slide and sink into his new I'm ready look.  What a match between these two great tennis players.  Roger tried his best to stay calm and keep his pose, but Monfils walk on and off the Tennis Court with a mind to win.  

 

I'm looking forward to seeing more of Monfils on the court longer and with more exciting matches.   He has been exposed to playing long drawn-out matches and I see him being more healthy and hungry to reach his next level.  Let's see what happens in his next match.   Can he hang?

Sports with a Twist

I must say, I have become a couch potatoes watching Sunday Football.  Let's get the ball rolling with San Francisco 49ers.  What a Team!!! They are moving, shaking and headed in the right direction. With Sunday's win, who don't love Colin Kaepernick?  This guy can throw a ball, run a ball, make the 1st down and the 3rd down but best of all he is not afraid of scoring a touch down, WOW!!!  Fantastic job guys. 

 

But wait, the game between Dallas and Denver was outrageous.  What a game, both teams keep you on the edge of your seats wondering what will happen next and who will win the game.  So sorry for Tony Romo which is also one of my favorite players but excited for Denver.

Well, the season has set in with one quote from my pal Mr. Owens " get your popcorn ready".  More action will be revealed.

 

 Until then,
