Wiki Article

Good morning, my friend! As always, your favorite newsletter writer is here to deliver the sports news straight to you as you start your day. Let it be noted that not only did Tom Fornelli take an unnece sary shot at my beloved Arsenal yesterday afternoon, he also screwed up your Pats-Jets pick. And he also said the game would make you "bored out of your mind." Wrong again, Tom! You fool!We'll get to the AFC Least showdown on Monday Night Football here in a second, but we've also got some Masters preview material, a bit of unexpected MLB news and an exciting NBA update in store as well. We're gonna have to survive a pretty light schedule over the next couple of days before action tees off at Augusta and football gets busy again, but we always find plenty to chew on as we prepare for the day.Let's get to it. What you need to know 1. sneak by in the Tank Bowl It wasn't nece sarily "good" football but last night's Patriots-Jets game ended up being miles more fun and entertaining than Sunday's primetime showdown between the and . Who saw that coming? The Tank Bowl turned out to be everything I thought it might be -- two bad teams doing their best to out-suck one another so that they could continue drawing hearts Kenny Stills Jersey all over their Trevor Lawrence poster for the rest of the season. No joke: at points it legitimately felt like both teams were trying their best to lose last night.Ultimately, though, the Patriots squeaked out a 30-27 win as the Jets proved they're better (and more experienced) at being painfully bad, especially in crunch time. :Why the Patriots won: Despite trailing by 10 points in the fourth quarter, the Pats made just enough plays down the stretch... and the Jets let them. New England held the football for most of the second half and won the turnover battle. and ran hard and had a career-best performance (12 catches for 159 yards). And last but not least, drilled the game-winning field goal from 51 yards out at the buzzerWhy the Jets lost: Aside from the fact that they're the New York stinkin' Jets? Well, throwing an inexplicable arm punt into double coverage while the Jets were up by seven points with le s than six minutes to go in the fourth quarter... yeah, that didn't help.Regardle s of what the scoreboard read, I think it's fair to say that Jets fans are feeling better about last night's game than Patriots fans. At 0-9, New York's tank is very much on track and they're still primed to land the top overall pick in this year's draft, which could put Lawrence in green. Meanwhile, the Patriots move to 3-5, which e sentially takes them off the board for Lawrence. 2. Nine golfers to watch at Augusta National We're just a few days away from the start of the Masters and it promises to be a pretty unique experience at Augusta National this year. Not only has the pandemic pushed Marcus Davenport Jersey the event to the fall, but it'll be played without any raucous fans in attendance. We'll have shorter days and le s atmosphere, but we'll still have the best golfers in the world pushing for the elusive and iconic green jacket... and isn't that what truly matters?Last year, Tiger Woods stunned the golf world by rediscovering glory at Augusta National and it was incredible to watch. So who should we be rooting for this year? I'm glad you asked because our Kyle Porter has . Let's check in on a few of them:Tiger Woods: Duh, right? Nobody in golf moves the needle quite like Tiger. The chances of him putting together back-to-back improbable runs at Augusta seem slim, especially given the rough year he's had, but stranger things have happenedRory McIlroy: This is another obvious one. The Masters has been Rory's white whale, as he's won basically all there is to win in golf with the exception of the green jacket. Maybe a quieter version of the Masters will finally bring him good luckCollin Morikawa: He's become one of golf's rising stars and he's incredible easy to root for, even if only for that wonderful smile. Plus, this is his first Masters and the last player to win the green jacket as a rookie was Fuzzy Zoeller in 1979Bryson DeChambeau: Come on... who doesn't love a little pure chaos? You want to see all nine candidates ranked 1-9? You can do that right . You can also check out Porter's as well. While I'm certainly going to mi s the crowds (and even the food/drink/merchandise coverage) , I am intrigued to see how different the experience will be this year. I'm very curious to see if the course plays drastically different in November and if a lack of daylight might wreak some havoc on the event. For those of us who have been waiting for this since April, it just feels good that it's almost here. 3. Tony La Ru sa arrested for DUI in February If you were already confused by the Chicago White Sox hiring Tony La Ru sa earlier this offseason, join the club. But that hiring became a little bit more perplexing last night, when news broke that La Ru sa, 76, was La Ru sa was arrested in February under suspicion of drunk driving after he drove his car into a curb. He had a BAC of 0.08 at the time of his arrest, which resulted in a misdemeanor chargeCharges weren't officially filed until the day before La Ru sa accepted the Chicago managerial job. The team says they were aware of the incident but declined to comment furtherWhen reached by phone, La Ru sa reportedly told ESPN "I have nothing to say" before hanging upThis is La Ru sa's second DUI; he pled guilty after a 2007 arrest in FloridaSomehow this weird hiring just only keeps getting weirder. The timeline looks something like this: ChiSox fire Rick Renteria, say they're going to hold an exhaustive search for his replacement and prefer to hire a manager who has won recently, then hire an old guy who hasn't managed in almost a decade and ...oh yeah... he's also in the middle of some legal trouble. I'll go ahead and a sume that this isn't going to help change anyone's mind that La Ru sa was hired because he's Jerry Reinsdorf's friend. 4.
