Why Cam Newton Is The Perfect Quarterback For New England In 2020.
Anyone that knows me knows I am a die-hard New England Patriots fan. My love affair started with them in 2004 during my first year of college at the University of Tampa. I was an incoming freshman and all my college friends were from everywhere but Florida. There were a group of guys that I met from Boston, Massachusetts with full blown Good Will Hunting accents and everything. These guys were literally out of a scene from the movie. They were hard core Patriots fans and taught me the game of football while watching the AFC championship playoffs. This was during the beginning of the Brady era in Foxborough when he was a young phenom. Being a Brady girl, I never really thought the day would come when I would see another quarterback in that position and be genuinely happy, that wasn't Brady. I definitely never imagined that Brady wouldn't end his career with the Pats and would take his talents to Tampa Bay.

We don't need college sports right now
I'm going to state this right off the bat for this article, this is a little more of a rant than my usual articles and also a lot more serious. As a former athlete, I feel a need to talk about this topic of college sports postponing (not canceling) their fall sports seasons until the spring.

Did Kansas City make the right move?
Now don’t take this the wrong way, I think that Patrick Mahomes is one of the best quarterbacks in the game today. He has shown that time and again, hell he didn’t even let being down 24-0 in the Wildcard round of the playoffs stop him. I’m talking about this from a logistical standpoint for the Kansas City Chiefs. Mahomes 10 year extension for $503 million with $447 million guaranteed. While those numbers are insane, why does Mahomes deserve that much of the money? First let’s look at Mahomes stats over the past two years that he has played.

It's Time For the 'Washington Redskins' to Change Their Name
I am once again calling for the NFL team that represents Washington D.C. to change their names, as their current nickname is hateful and insulting to the Native American Community. According to Esquire, the term for ‘redskin’ is "The scalped head of a Native American that is sold for cash.” This epithet has been commonplace since 1755 in the Phips Proclamation which called for bounties on Native Indians near Maine. Today, we do not realize the disgusting history of the bounty placed on their lives for which 'redskin' was first coined. Native groups have been calling for a change for decades & it is time to finally comply.
