Well happy with that, good atmosphere around the ground for the whole game, Vik has his critics but that’s 21 in all comps this season, Eze enjoying his football looking sharp, MLS coming into midfield & did a solid job, my MOTM was Trossard who hardly put a foot wrong, Arteta making good changes & resting a few for Tuesday. Hammers away next week will be a battle, let’s keep believing, you never know. #COYG

As a former NFL Scout, I find it VERY interesting that Shedeur Sanders “dirted” his final play of his Pro Day in the 2-Minute Drill instead of making the high pressure throw to the end-zone and risking missing it as his lasting impression. This is also why he took some of his sacks (and yardage losses for his team) instead of throwing the ball away at Colorado the past two seasons. I’ve never seen a quarterback more afraid of making a mistake. The fear of making a mistake is engrained in him (likely from an early age). It’s spray painted all over his game film and poetically, it’s exactly how his Pro Day ended with him bowing out instead of stepping into the moment. The fact he “shied away” from taking the shot in front of the league at the end is VERY telling to me. It’s the take away. Three other impressions of mine from his Pro Day: 1. Average overall looking “arm strength.” There was a “wobble” on a number of his throws and he put too much air under his deep passes. He could not drive the ball much at his indoor Pro Day at 5,430 feet altitude (Boulder Colorado). He “flashed” having “decent” arm strength on a few of his underneath throws but he clearly lacks “arm confidence” and the confidence in himself to drive the ball. 2. Average location placement overall. 3. Pats the ball pre-delivery which telegraphs to defensive backs when and where he’s throwing. There was nothing and I mean nothing special, elite or dominant looking at his Pro Day that was set up in absolute ideal conditions for him. He mostly made short throws and put too much air under his deep throws. I have an undraftable free agent grade on him. He’s a practice squad level talent with a Hall of Fame last name. My dream is to get a second chance in the NFL and on my resume, I am advising teams not to select him in rounds 1-7 in the 2025 NFL Draft. Video credit: NFL

Shedeur Sanders was criticized for weeks leading up to the 2025 NFL draft for patting the ball before every throw. “He needs to stop patting the ball.” “That patting the ball stuff won’t work in the NFL.” “All of that patting the ball will lead to sacks in the NFL.” “Shedeur does not have an NFL quality release. He pats the ball before every throw. He’ll never succeed in the NFL with that habit.” This was being printed all over the place leading up to the 2025 NFL Draft. I opened X today, and here was the TOP TRENDING STORY: Fernando Mendoza DOMINATES at Indiana’s Pro Day. I pulled up live videos of his performance, and guess what jumped off the SCREEN: He PATS THE BALL BEFORE EVERY THROW. I have not seen ONE article. I have not seen ONE quote from an anonymous GM. I have not seen one statement from an unnamed NFL source….regarding his slow delivery, or his patting the ball! You folks are NOT ready to have the difficult conversation about how the racist sports media in America handles black Quarterbacks coming out of college vs. how they handle white Quarterbacks coming out of college!

Hell yes!! Jhared Hack just won his first start on the India Pro Tour with a final round 59* to win by 5. Jhared has become a good friend, we helped raise money for him a few times. Truly one of the nicest people in golf. Won the 2007 Western Am, beat Rickie and DJ in match play. Turned pro at 18. Now 20 years into his pro career he is still grinding. Years of driver yips. It got so bad his friends would try to convince him to not play in Vegas money games, they would feel guilty taking his money. He refused. Found his way out of them. Battled back. A ton of mini-tour players have been broke, but no one as many times as Jhared. And no one plays better when he's broke. Has won mini-tour events multiple times when his cards were maxed and it was win or be done. Has played most every tour in the world. DP, PGA, KFT, Latin, Canada, Morocco, China, and now India. After he missed at 2nd stage here he told Mark Baldwin he was going to play in India. We thought he was crazy (we still think he's crazy) . He won 1st stage there, finished 2nd at final, now won in his first start. Gets $25,000 for the win, will get into 2 Hotel Planners events, possible a DP event. Moved up 2000 spots in OWGR. Talked to him this morning when I woke up, he was ecstatic. “Going to have some beers” before he gets on his way to next weeks event. I love it, every second of it. This is why I started this account, for wins like this at events no one has ever heard of. (* par 69, around 6,000 yards. A 59 to win is impressive regardless, but for full context)

.Rich Cimini told a phenomenal #Jets preseason story from the past: "This is the mid-90s, the Jets are playing. Now, hear me out: they're playing a preseason game in Jackson, Mississippi; they're playing the #Eagles. Don't ask me why. This is pre-cell phone days. I'm working for Newsday at the time as the beat writer. We file the story during the game & then the plan is to call in quotes after the game so my editor could insert that into the story. There was a deadline & the deadline was this: Rich Kotite was gracious enough to allow the beat writers to fly home on the team charter after the game. So we didn't have to spend an extra night in Jackson. So we couldn't go back to the press box; we had to do it fast. So I had to go in the locker room, get my quotes, get out to the pay phone -- yes, a pay phone outside the locker room to call in my quotes. So I'm on a tight time watch here. So I go out & there's this player at the pay phone & I'm waiting, & waiting, & this player, as I can hear him talking, is clearly talking to his parents, giving them like a play-by-play of what he did in the game. The game wasn't even on live TV; it was a tape delay, & this rookie player is giving the play-by-play, & I'm looking at my watch & I'm like, 'Kotite is going to leave me at the stadium here if this guy doesn't hurry up!' So the guy finishes the phone call & walks away & the player was a rookie free agent named Wayne Chrebet. I always remembered that he was like a little kid calling his parents, telling them you will never believe what I just did in this game. Three weeks later, he's in the starting lineup Week 1 Jets at Miami." #JetUp Jake Asman Brandon Tierney FULL SHOW:

Brett Wichrowski Brett Wichrowski Acquired: 2023 13th round selection Measurables: 6’2”, 177 lbs, 21 years old Cliff Notes: The Brewers picked the Junior out of Bryant who had steadily improved over his NCAA career last year. By his junior campaign, Wichrowski posted a 4.50 ERA and 64 Ks/25 BBs in 50 innings pitched. He also has steadily added velocity in his offseasons (with Baseball Performance Center), which he showed off in the Spring Breakout series sitting 99 mph. In the Spring Breakout game he went 2 IP with zero earned & one strikeout plus in his outing in Big League Camp he went one scoreless, facing three batters with a K. His mix appears to have a 4-seam and 2-seam fastball with secondary offerings of a cutter, slider, and change-up. All look relatively effective playing off his fastballs, with the cutter jumping out of his hand and slider/change-up being effective enough off of his velocity. With his experience in NCAA baseball, the New England Collegiate Baseball League and the Cape Cod League, I would not be surprised if the Brewers start him in at least A ball. Wichrowski played three seasons at Bryant where he progressed as one would expect. His sophomore campaign was across 38 innings where he posted a 5.21 ERA, 37 Ks, and a high 30 BBs. His Junior season he demonstrated serious improvements, giving up less earned runs on average as well as upping his K rate while decreasing his BB rate. He rode that good season into being a Brewers Draft Pick. I look forward to seeing how the Brewers deploy the righty in the minors. As mentioned above, in the Spring Breakout game he was topping out at 99 mph. He uses that speed when throwing both of his fastballs, while his cutter is about 10 mph slower and effectively horizontally cuts due to his excellent extension. His slider is another nice option for glove-side movement, while he continues to work on his change up. His college walk rates/WHIP are something that are of concern, but more time in the Brewers organization should help him control his offerings better. His multiple plus offerings give Wichrowski a great chance to be an MLB contributor as long as he can improve control (which he showed in his Spring Breakout & Spring Training outings) He is definitely a guy to keep an eye on in 2024 and I could see him gaining transaction on some prospect lists.

Hey Dave, Thank you for your quote post responses and the accompanying research news snippets. I appreciate them. Your agenda is clear (to get Shula two additional wins) and your verve for the topic is apparent and admirable. First, regarding the Eagles' players in the 1966-67 Playoff Bowl: you mentioned the "surprise starter" at fullback in Izzy Lang and the questions about "who will start at quarterback" and the subsequent in-game jockeying of Concannon and King — to me, this sounds awfully similar to a preseason exhibition game dynamic, no? As I said earlier, my understanding of the Playoff Bowl has always been that some players/coaches took the game more seriously than others. NFL Films produced a feature a few years ago which provides some opinion and insight, seen here. Here are some points that stood out to me: • Roger Brown — who played in five Playoff Bowls, the most of any player — states quite succinctly that "just to go to Miami was a thrill. You went down to bask in the sun, and play in a game that didn't mean anything". He later referred to it as "The Toilet Bowl". • Paul Warfield called it "a nothing game". • The game's origins were born from the NFL looking merely for "extra content" • It was essentially a league PR effort by commissioner Pete Rozelle, replete with golf and tennis tournaments; as I had stated yesterday, many players and coaches (and their families) saw it as nothing more than a vacation. Kind of similar to how players viewed the trip to Honolulu for the Pro Bowl years later. • Aside from Vince Lombardi's famous negative quotes about the Playoff Bowl, he (and other coaches) used the contests for evaluatory purposes of players. Again, sounds very similar to a preseason exhibition game in that respect. • Miami was seen as a testing ground for eventual Super Bowls and to probe public interest in pro football in hopes of eventually hosting a team (Dolphins). I personally don't have a vested interest in having the Playoff Bowl regain its official status. It's take it or leave it for me. But I wish you the best in your crusade. Dave Hyde

Screw your “Optimal Preparation Routine” In late 2022 Jacob Degrom was coming off a shoulder injury that kept him off the mound for 4 months. Seeing that his first start of the year would come less than 20 miles from where I lived, I made the split decision to go see Degoat in person I got to the park two hours before game time Hoping to catch a glimpse of some magical pregame preparation from one of the best in the game As I sat just behind the catcher near the bullpen. I watched every move from the time Jacob walked out of the dugout to his first pitch on the game mound. And what did I find??? NOTHING I mean the guys warm up was one of the most basic, vanilla warm ups I’d ever seen!!! Regimented? Sure. He made his first throw exactly 20 minutes before game time. 6:45. Right on the dot. Was watching the clock and AS SOON as it hit 6:45, he turned to the catcher and made his first throw No weighted balls. No bands. No sprints Looked like a standard high school warm up. “Few jogs, few of theeese, few of theeese….” Some light stretching and catch play was all he needed before promptly going to the game mound and hitting 101 on his third pitch. Does this mean that Degrom is a freak? Well, yes. But it also shows how irrelevant a specific prep routine can be for a large majority of players Jacob found what works for him and he stuck to it I encourage you to do the same. Having a mapped out plan for how you want to attack an outing is crucial, but the contents of that routine can vary based on the individual. If you need more prep, more CNS activation, more mobility before your outing to perform your best, so be it! If you HATE long periods of thought and careful planning before you throw, maybe tossing a football around for your “weighted ball routine” could be a better option Just some thoughts. If you liked this story, feel free to give this a retweet and follow me for more baseball training co

I first met Saud Abdulhamid on my very first trip to Riyadh. Saudi Arabia. I had gone there to see Odion Ighalo, back when he was still playing for Al Hilal. That day, I was standing outside the training ground, just waiting, taking everything in. Then suddenly, a beautiful white G-Wagon pulled up. The windows were fully tinted, so you couldn’t see who was inside. For a moment, I was convinced it had to be Ighalo. As the window rolled down, I got ready to greet him—only to be met by Saud, flashing his trademark smile. He waved at me, and I waved back, even though, truthfully, I had no idea who he was at the time. Not long after, Ighalo arrived, and we headed into the training ground. That’s when I properly met Saud, along with his brother. We had a brief chat before training started, and that was the beginning. Our paths crossed again when Saudi Arabia played Nigeria in a friendly match in Portugal. After the game, in the middle of the crowd, I heard someone shout, “Ighalo!”—it was Saud. From there, we stayed connected, following each other online, keeping in touch in our own way. Then came another reunion, this time in Lens, inside his small but tastefully furnished apartment in the heart of the city. Back then, things were still uncertain for him. He wasn’t playing regularly, but I remember him telling me clearly that he wanted to stay in Europe, stay with Lens, and fight for his place. There was a quiet determination about him. I could feel it. And today, looking at his journey, that belief has paid off. He has grown into an important player for the club, playing his part in helping them secure a Champions League spot. He’s become one of Saudi Arabia’s biggest ambassadors in Europe. And life keeps moving forward. He just got married too. Big congratulations to you, my brother. My next video will be dedicated to him. What a guy!

Nkosingiphile Ngcobo was always poised to play an important role in the team from pre-season. He was central to many of the positive aspects of our play during pre-season. Although he didn’t start the season as a key member of the team and wasn’t used effectively in the early stages, the recent tactical evolution within the club has once again positioned him as a key element in the team’s playing structure. Mshini has to play this season with a level of intensity that demands both physical and mental resilience. It’s encouraging to see his commitment to improving his fitness. His dedication to extra work beyond club training remains consistent, even after years of mixed fortunes in terms of game time. Despite limited opportunities, he has continued to focus on refining his physicality, fitness, and conditioning. This season will demand even more from him, but it’s reassuring to see his determination to stay sharp, look good, and be ready whenever the team requires him. I genuinely appreciate the continued work Bukhosi Nyoni is doing with him from the time Mshini was making waves as a youngster in the CAFCL to this day — it shows a positive relationship beyond football and a clear intent to elevate his game and sustain his readiness for top-level competition. He continues to take good care of the ball in that engine room, and this version of Mshini looks highly competitive and confident. ❤️✌🏾

RHP Coleman Crow Acquired: 28th round selection by the Angels in 2019 draft, eventually traded to the Brewers from the Mets in exchange for Adrian Hauser & Tyrone Taylor Measurables: 6’0”, 175 lbs, 23 years old Cliff Notes: Crow has been dealt twice now in trades for proven MLB talent. Never pitching in the Mets’ system due to a Tommy John surgery, he saw some success in the Angel’s system. Pitching at AA in 2022 and starting there again in 2023, Crow posted a 4.38 ERA across 152 innings (28 games). His 24.8% strikeout rate and 6.4% walk rate in AA reflect his strengths well. He pounds the strike zone and controls his pitches. Crow has a low-90’s 4-seamer that he releases from his low slot. From that same slot, he throws his best offering - a horizontal sweeping, vertical dropping, high-spin curveball that sits below 80-mph. Additionally, Crow throws a mid-80’s slider with horizontal sweep and rarely throws his fading change-up. Crow’s ability to sneaky release and ability to control sets him up to one day be able to fill out a rotation or be a long reliever. Crow was a 28th rounder in the 2019 draft, but was paid an approximately 5th round slot bonus that the Angels dumped on him. With the 2020 season lost to COVID, Crow debuted in 2020 getting his feet wet at Single A and the Arizona Fall League. He followed that up with a strong 2022 performance in AA Rocket City and continued there to start 2023, prior to an elbow injury. In AA, he had a low 4’s ERA, as noted above. Averaging over a strikeout per inning, he averaged just over two walks per game. Opponents hit Crow with about a .240 opponent batting average, leading to a 1.204 WHIP. Nearly 50% of contact induced was a ground ball with under 20% being line drives. So far in his career, Crow has done a good job eluding hard contact. Crow throws a fastball that sits low-90’s with a flat approach that fools hitters in the top of the zone. His curve sits below 80-mph and posted elite spin and movement in AA (notably with a tacked ball). The curve has vertical dive, but more importantly elite horizontal sweep across the plate. He throws a faster, mid-80’s slider that also has nearly a foot of sweep. His fourth, and sparsely used, offering is a change-up that tails arm side. Crow throws a strike nearly three quarters of his offerings with solid command, which allows him to miss barrels. Shut down from an inflamed elbow since April ‘23, he underwent Tommy John surgery in summer of 2023. His return from Tommy John will be worth a watch. Hopefully he maintains his command and progress made to this point in his career so that he can resume his career path. Crow was on a path to the Big Leagues as a possible back-end starter or long reliever, so stay tuned for his return to the mound. Profile by Cole Roepke

Scottie Scheffler has made golf look easy over the last few years, but he’s clearly frustrated with his game this week: “I felt like I was going to shoot about 90 today. “I don't know if you were out there on the course, but I was going to be hard to find if you were out watching my group. I felt like I got my first birdie putt of the day on the 13th hole. I maybe had one on 11, but I couldn't imagine I hit more than six or seven greens today. So around this golf course, with heavy rough and deep bunkers, you got to be hitting the ball in the right spots and for a long time today that was definitely not the case for me.” Scottie was visibly frustrated yesterday at the Memorial and had a long, heated discussion with his caddie Ted Scott after dunking a ball into the water. After rallying with 3 birdies in his last 6 holes today for a level par 72, he currently sits T20 and he was asked how proud he was to comfortably make the cut after looking in danger earlier in the round: “I think I grind like that every day. I think that's just part of the game. That's maybe some of the worst I've hit it in a couple years out there and I still managed to shoot even par around a golf course that requires to you strike the ball really well. Yeah, I'm definitely very proud of stuff like that. “This tournament was one that definitely could have got away from me, but right now I'm only nine shots back and still have a chance going into the weekend. With the conditions the way they are, you never really know what's going to happen around this golf course and just getting inside the cut line you still have a chance.” Scottie is currently 10 shots back of leader J.T Poston.

Interviewer: "We are talking about the old Chelsea, the old competitive energy, and to play football and compete. There were seven wins and seven defeats in the Premier League here last season. How do you go about turning this place back into a fortress?" Xabi Alonso: "We need to build this. The idea, the competitive mentality, how we want to compete, how we want to play, and in every moment of the game, how we compete." Interviewer: "Four years ago Chelsea won a European trophy, then the Club World Cup, then the Premier League. They've also had two seasons finishing 10th. Where is this club now and what would you be content with?" Xabi Alonso: "I think, to be ready, the players need to be ready from the start, to make the right decisions. Football is very demanding." Interviewer: "How do you want your team to play? What can we expect from you?" Xabi Alonso: "We want to play good football. We want to be active, aggressive, and very competitive." Interviewer: "You have so many good players already. Cole Palmer has had the summer off. Have you already started to see the benefits?" Xabi Alonso: "We've already been together in training, and what I've seen is that he's come in with a good spirit. He wants to prepare himself well, he wants to forget the injuries. If we get the best from Cole, we will have a better chance." Interviewer: "There's a big stand here now, and you're just a few days away from your first game of the tour. How excited are you to be on the touchline?" Xabi Alonso: "It's still a few weeks to go. Right now I'm excited about the daily work, being with the players and working with them. That will come, for sure. I'm looking forward to it."
