Share this: The Sacramento Kings traded a top 15 player in the NBA in DeMarcus Cousins to the New Orleans Pelicans on Sunday. In return, they got rookie shooting guard Buddy Hield, a couple of picks and two players that won’t be part of their long-term plan, Tyreke Evans and Langston Galloway. By any stretch of the imagination, this was a poor trade. But Kings play-by-play announcer Grant Napear put a different spin on the trade in a Twitter outburst against the talented center. Trading DMC was an absolute no brainer! There has been a dark cloud over this franchise for years! That cloud is now gone! — Grant Napear (@GrantNapearshow) February 20, 2017 The Kings were never going to win with Cousins. NEVER! This

Young Patriots Fan Is Overjoyed After Receiving A Gronk Jersey For Christmas

Kyle Rudolph Will Wear Awesome (And Predictable) Christmas Cleats For Vikings-Pa…
Share this: We imagine it’s probably tough to get through the holiday season without people cracking jokes if you share a last name with one of Santa’s reindeer, but Kyle Rudolph is embracing it. The Minnesota tight end is getting in the spirit ahead of the Vikings’ Christmas Eve game against the Green Bay Packers on Saturday with some festive footwear. Rudolph plans to wear cleats featuring, you guessed it, Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. The cleats pay homage to the 1964 claymation movie version of “Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer” that’s a Christmas staple in many households. Whether they help guide Rudolph and the Vikings to a win to hang onto their slim playoff chances, though, remains to be seen. Thumbnail photo via Bruce Kluckhohn/USA TODAY Sports
Tom Brady Plays Video Games With Ram In Latest Edition Of ‘TB Times’
Share this: The New England Patriots made it look like they were taking on a rookie-level team in “Madden NFL” during their win over the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday. Or at least that’s what the “TB Times” thought. Tom Brady posted the latest edition of his fictional newspaper to Facebook on Sunday after the Patriots’ 26-10 victory, and it was, well, interesting to say the least. It features a drawing of the Patriots quarterback playing video games with an actual Ram. We imagine hooves make it pretty difficult to use a video game controller, so it’s safe to say there wasn’t much competition in that matchup. More Stories Source link

Kyle Long’s Injured Ankle Looks Gruesome Ahead Of Much-Needed Surgery
Share this: Thank goodness Kyle Long will undergo surgery Monday. The Chicago Bears offensive lineman used Twitter on Sunday to share a picture of his injured ankle with the world. The image clearly shows why he’ll sit out the rest of the NFL season. Long suffered ligament damage on Nov. 13 when fullback Paul Lasike fell onto him in the Bears’ Week 10 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Trainers carted Long off the field, and he returned to the sideline with his lower leg heavily bandaged. The Bears subsequently placed the three-time Pro Bowl guard on injured reserve. Nobody who has seen Long’s injured ankle will doubt why. Thumbnail photo via Kim Klement/USA TODAY Sports Images More Stories Source link
