WWE vs Coronavirus – The Showcase of the Immorals!
WWE is a company that rarely shuts its doors, for this company, “The Show Must Go On” is always the mantra they live by and is embedded in their minds. With most professional and collegiate sports shutting down and the UFC decreasing the number of events they are running, the pressure is on for the company to press on or bring production to a halt. Is it time for the WWE to take a break until it’s safe to run shows? Recently, WWE and ESPN struck a deal to air WrestleMania on Sundays, until WrestleMania 36 on April 4th and 5th. The first replay was WrestleMania 30, which included John…
2020 NFL Mock Draft 1.0
As the NFL heads towards a new year and the start of free agency, it’s time to start thinking about the draft. With that being said, here is Finflam Sports’ Top 10 Mock Draft 1.0 Round 1 Pick 1: Cincinnati Bengals – Joe Burrow – QB, LSU Joe Burrow is the obvious pick, he was the best QB in college football last year. Burrow’s year rivaled that of Cam Newton’s 2010-11 Heisman Year. Joe Burrow’s two years at LSU include an average to slightly above average year and a Heisman winning, dominate year. The jump Burrow took was massive and could be cause for concern. Tua Tagovailoa could be an…
NBC Waging War Against Vince McMahon & the XFL?
If anybody has been watching the coverage over the past two years since WWE Chairman, and CEO Vince McMahon announced the relaunch of the XFL, you may have noticed one network that’s trashed the rebirth of the once failed league repeatedly. NBC is that network! Since the XFL’s premiere two weeks ago NBC Sports on-air talents have buried it. The premier peaked at around 4 million people on ABC and averaged around 3.5 million viewers over the remaining 3 games for the opening weekend. Week 2 ratings were expected to drop as they did, but they aren’t all that bad as we only have numbers provided by ABC, so far…
The XFL Has More Potential Than You Think
The XFL has returned and speculation about how long this league can last has began. Spring football of any type has struggled to find any footing, since the USFL. Week One of the XFL averaged 3 Million viewers. Interest will always be high in the first week, so Week Two is extremely important for the new XFL. Week Two of the XFL on ABC averaged 2.2 Million viewers, which is a drop off from Week One, but is expected for any new league. As of this writing the ratings for Week Two of the XFL on Fox have not been released. The biggest question is if the XFL can keep…
Cam Newton Playing for the Chargers?
With the Carolina Panthers looking towards another quarterback, a new head coach and the Los Angeles Chargers parting ways with their 16-year veteran quarterback Philip Rivers, Cam Newton seems destined thunderbolt his way into Chargers sky blue and white. Is Cam Newton a better quarterback than Philip Rivers? Philip Rivers doesn’t get hurt, as his ability to maintain his health is something people shouldn’t turn their nose to as he’s started 224 consecutive games, second-most by an NFL quarterback (behind Brett Favre, 297). The Chargers have the 6th round draft pick and I don’t see them drafting someone who can’t give them stability in the pocket. Newton is only 30…
Here’s Why Philip Rivers Will Play for the Tampa Buccaneers
It’s official, the Los Angeles Chargers have parted ways with 16 year NFL veteran Philip Rivers. Now that he’s a free agent for the first time in his career, where should he go? Rivers owns more than 30 franchise records and is No. 6 on the NFL’s all-time touchdowns list with 397, fourth all-time in 300-plus passing yard performances with 70, Rivers played all of his 16 seasons with the Chargers. This was the first time in 12 years he threw for under 25 touchdowns in a season. Philip Rivers’s best fit for his future over the next few years will be in Tampa as the starting quarterback for the…
Tom Brady Heading to The Raiders?
Tom Brady signaled to me and the world in that cryptic tweet that his exit from Gillette Stadium is legitimate. Now if you put 1+1 together his tweet depicts what two colors? Grey and Black! What makes it even more interesting is that Brady was seen hanging out with Raiders owner Mark Davis during a recent MMA fight in Las Vegas where even President of the UFC Dana White said the rumors have “legs”. Derrick Carr who’s been with the Raiders since 2014 commented on the speculation. “I mean, there was a lot of quarterbacks at that fight,” Carr told ESPN’s Paul Gutierrez. “And there was a lot of football players…
The NBA Isn’t Going to Change the NBA Logo for Kobe Bryant & That’s Ok
There have been over 2.9 million people who have petitioned for the NBA to change the historic league logo in wake of the tragic death of former NBA Laker and 5x Champion Kobe Bryant. There were 8 other people who died in his helicopter crash including his beautiful daughter Giana. With the untimely and unexpected passing of the great Kobe Bryant, please sign this petition in an attempt to immortalize him forever as the new NBA logo. Petition to Change NBA Logo Kobe spent his entire career with the Los Angeles Lakers which in my estimation that organization is equivalent to the Yankees in New York. Kobe died at a…
Should The Astros Be Stripped of Their Championship?
California has recently petitioned Major League Baseball to strip the Houston Astros and Boston Red Sox of their World Series Championships, due to the cheating scandals both teams are going through. This petition would award both championships to the Los Angeles Dodgers, who lost in the Wold Series in 2017 (Houston) and 2018 (Boston). The MLB recently handed down punishment Houston, which led to the Astros firing their Manager and General Manager. The MLB is currently investigating cheating allegations against the Boston Red Sox. While the Houston Astros have already been punished, there is a belief that the Astros cheating scandal could deeper than what Major League Baseball investigated. Internet…
