Rob Gronkowski comes out of retirement to play for the Buccaneers

The Gronk-Brady duo comes to Florida

Rob Gronkowski comes out of retirement after 2 years of not playing.  On Tuesday 4/21 Gronkowski was traded by the New England Patriots to the Tampa Bay buccaneers for a fourth round draft pick.  Rob Gronkowski was responsible for more than 7,800 receiving yards, and 79 total receiving touchdowns and helped guide Tom Brady and the New England patriots to 3 super bowl wins.  He is also responsible for 16% of Tom Brady's total touchdowns regular season and post season.

The buccaneers already have one of the most talented receiving cores in the NFL right now.  With guys like Chris Godwin, Mike Evans, O.J Howard and Cameron Brate.  With the edition of Gronk, who knows how much better this receiving core will be.  I know that this season has not started yet.  But I think the Buccaneers are a playoff, maybe super bowl caliber team under the right circumstances.  But there is still a lot of things that need to happen in order for me to even think the Buccaneers even have a chance to play in a super bowl.  I do think a lot more needs to happen, but in my opinion it is a step closer to Tampa Bay being a contender for a super bowl.  While this is a huge step closer, I still think a lot more needs to happen before the city of Tampa even thinks super bowl.

The no call: A deep rewind

The no call, a little more than a year later... Heston Curry   4/14/20 Back in 2019, at the Marcedes-Benz superdome, we saw one of the worst no calls personally I have ever seen.  A uncalled pass interference call that would have given the Saints the ball at the 5 yard line, a new set of downs and with the Rams only having one timeout left, the Saints would have been able to run out the clock before scoring and leaving the Rams possibly only enough time for maybe a hail mary.  Even to this day I am pretty sure we all wonder to this day, what if the refs did call pass interference?  Well here is a full timeline from the NFC title game to the super bowl based on my opinion and possible prediction starting from that call to how I think it would have affected the super bowl. We will at first start with the penalty, the Rams are charged with the penalty and the Saints move up 10 yards because of the penalty getting the ball at the 3 yard line with more than ...

MLB talks about possible solution to have a season

Major League Baseball might give use something to watch after all By: Heston Curry 4/8/2020 After recent talks, major league baseball officials have had talks on a possible solution accepted by high ranking health officials to play at least part of the season. Major League Baseball has come up with a possible solution to play at least part of the major league baseball season in a undisclosed stadiums without fans in Arizona.  The season if it does happen will be a shorter season with possibly a 14 team expanded playoff . While there is still plenty of uncertainty on how this solution will play out, there is still hope that this could be the first step to establishing at least some sort of normalcy in these times and most importantly, give me at least something to write about for the first time in weeks. Now back on topic, the solution is not quite 100 percent yet, but how it would work is all major league baseball teams will travel to Arizona t...

3 future NFL offensive rookies that will make impact regardless of draft pick

3 players that I think will make an impact regardless of when they are selected in the draft (offense) 1. Jalen Hurts:  Probably one of the biggest questions going into the 2020 NFL draft is when Jalen Hurts will get drafted.  To me he is one of the most improved players in the draft.  Before last season I saw him as a 6th rounder at best because before, his arm did not really impress me at Alabama.  This season at Oklahoma, what impressed me was the way he improved week by week and got better as the season went on.  In the NFL I only see him getting better.  It might take a year or two on the bench before he gets a chance, but I do see him starting eventually. 2. Cam Akers:  When you talk about NFL draft Running Backs, I think the most ready running back power, speed, and size wise for the NFL is Cam Akers.  I really do not see why he is not a first rounder.  To me he has the all of the attributes of a top tier NFL running back....
