They commenced their season with two quick wins, but shortly followed those with a loss to Yale last weekend. If St John’s offense can create more opportunities, size up with opponents, and show more pressure…
The NCAA just closed on an interesting Week 3/4 in its 2014 season. Of the nine games I’m picking to cover this week, Saturday was mostly upsets while Sunday was home to four blowouts. SATURDAY Penn State 8 Notre Dame 7 This was such a close game all around, and I’m calling it an upset because Notre Dame has proven themselves as a strong program in past seasons. Shots were…
Derrick Coleman is possibly the most well-known NFL football player following the Seahawks stomping of the Broncos. It is because he is the first professional football player to win a championship and be legally deaf. Many stories of handicapped professional athletes are cropping up.
