Jared Goff ‘highly unlikely’ to start vs. Falcons
Nearly a week ago, Jared Goff played his best game with the Detroit Lions. Now, a week later, he'll miss his second game of the season. On Friday morning, Lions head coach Dan Campbell said it's "highly unlikely" that Goff will start on Sunday vs. the Atlanta Falcons. Earlier in the week, Goff tested positive for COVID-19. Subsequently, the Lions placed him on the covid list. "He
Marcus Bingham Jr. Will Have Final Say in Spartans Success
Tuesday night, Michigan State ran off the floor of Little Caesars Arena, after handing the Oakland Golden Grizzlies a 90-78 loss. Tom Izzo had beaten OU head coach Greg Kampe for the 20th time in his career, but what was more impressive, was the all around play of his team. Not only did MSU record a season low nine turnovers, but also had five different players finish
Lions’ Amani Oruwariye deserves to play in the 2022 Pro Bowl
The NFL will announce the 2022 Pro Bowl roster during a special program at 8pm ET on the NFL Network. So far, the league has already revealed several players. Tom Brady, Aaron Donald, Justin Jefferson, and Cooper Kupp were some of the notable names. Now it's no secret the Detroit Lions aren't having their best season. Their record is 2-11-1. Despite that, they do have one player
The next great American boxing heavyweight champion is in the NFL
About twice a month I spoke to the godfather of Detroit boxing, trainer Emanuel Steward. It was not for a newspaper article or for research. We were just two dudes kicking it about all kinds of subjects. Before he died in 2012, I asked Steward why there was a void of great American heavyweight boxers. His came quick and easy. "They are still around," Steward said. "They
The Brady Effect: Tom Brady changes the game with new NIL signees
Tom Brady will likely go down in history as the NFL's greatest quarterback. He'll retire with the most Super Bowl appearances and rings. He'll also leave the game holding many records. At this point, he didn't need to do anything to enhance his legend. Brady etched that in stone already. Then something special happened on Thursday morning. On his Instagram page, Tom Brady revealed the first lineup
The Good, The Bad, The Ugly: Michigan State Basketball Through One Month
Tom Izzo's team is currently in the midst of a nine day break, just in time for finals week. After playing eleven games in just over a month, Michigan State will gear up for two more non-conference opponents before getting into the grind of Big Ten play. Already having nine wins under their belt a third of the way through the season is just what this team
The next Stephen Curry is among us
The next king of the three-point line is probably an eighth grader playing for his middle school team with a low launch level and tiny shooting percentage. Golden State Warriors marksman Stephen Curry was once one of those kids. Now he is the king of downtown shooting. After passing Ray Allen the other night by hitting his three-point shot 2,974 against the New York Knicks at Madison
Cade Cunningham is Leading On and Off the Court
Cade Cunningham has been one of the best rookies in the NBA since returning from an ankle injury. He had a rough start over the first few games of his return, but since has put up numbers not seen here since the days of Grant Hill, and Jerry Stackhouse. Ok to be fair, I begrudgingly have to include 2018-19 Blake Griffin too. Also to note, Cade is
Calvin Johnson talks Matthew Stafford, DK Metcalf, and his love for Detroit
Calvin Johnson isn't clueless. He pays attention. He's aware of wide receivers, such as DK Metcalf, compared to him. Along with that, he's heard the claims about his former quarterback, Matthew Stafford, finally having weapons to throw to. On Saturday, the Pro Football Hall of Famer talked about it. Johnson appeared at the Southeastern Michigan, Boys & Girls Club to discuss ways to eliminate trauma in youth
Lions’ Craig Reynolds earns right to get more playing time
The Denver Broncos have one of the NFL's best rush defenses this season. Heading into Sunday's game vs. the Detroit Lions, only five teams have rushed for over 100 yards in a game against them. Furthermore, their record was 1-4 against those teams. Then Sunday afternoon happened. The Lions ran the ball 21 times for 118 yards on Sunday vs. the Broncos. And get this––leading them was
No more trauma: Calvin Johnson joins discussion to fix big issue in youth sports
Calvin Johnson considers Michigan his home. And the Detroit Lions legend recently took care of "home" in a very special way. On Saturday morning, Johnson participated in a discussion to bring awareness to trauma in youth sports. More importantly to him, he talked about ways to end it. The intimate conversation took place at the Boys & Girls Club-Southeastern Michigan. Over 60 young athletes, parents, and coaches
Detroit Lions stood no chance against emotional Denver Broncos on Sunday
The Detroit Lions had seven players go down with COVID this past week. And even more with the flu. Keeping that in mind, expecting them to defeat the Denver Broncos wasn't logical. Sunday's beatdown at Mile High validated this notion. With heavy hearts, the Broncos took down the Lions, 38-10, improving to 7-6, and dropping the Lions to 1-11-1. It was an emotional Sunday afternoon in Denver.
