Jordan Love

After an NFL game, players flood the field for handshakes. For many, this is a way to catch up with old teammates or congratulate the opposing players on a good game. After the Sunday night game, Jordan Love and Jalen Hurts met on the field for a handshake. As they were walking away Hurts and Love inadvertently created a hilarious photo. https://twitter.com/rgiii/status/1597097519984828417?s=21&t=HldCPcnUaVeY9cqmL7Ke0A Jalen Hurts And Jordan Love Create Hilarious Photo As they walked away, a camera caught the back of the quarterback’s jerseys.

Luke Fickell and the Wisconsin Badgers add another huge recruit through the transfer portal.

College football has some great traditions. The fun of college football is seeing each program’s unique tradition they engage in. For the Wisconsin Badgers, it is the ‘Jump Around’ tradition between the 3rd and 4th quarters. In his introductory press conference, new head coach Luke Fickell was asked about the ‘Jump Around’ tradition. https://twitter.com/jakedicker/status/1597359605797249024?t=rKJ84HVyvyPAdDoz77P9vQ&s=19&fbclid=IwAR1KUzy27srbL7oygyGcj8pNqScNBhlt7EUlHCx3Vux6Uabil87kAr4RkzI Luke Fickell Shares Thoughts On ‘Jump Around’ Tradition During Fickell’s time as the Ohio State defensive coordinator, he got to experience this tradition from the opposing side.

The Wisconsin Badgers have officially made Luke Fickell their next head coach. Any time there is a coaching change in a program, there are many moving pieces. Players change their commitments or enter the transfer portal. Another place there is a lot of movement is in the coaching staff. While getting a big-name head coach is great, a program has to have good staff around him. Luke Fickell has brought a key staff member over from Cincinnati, strength coach Brady Collins. https://twitter.com/PeteThamel/status/1597363726058811393?t=G2AUCbdh_X-AxEE4oX98zA&s=19&fbclid=IwAR1A1syTP_MaB6DyxprMs96oyg0ZbpENkuKafZ07GBSa4AmDQYvDT9xZ30s Luke Fickell Brings Over Strength Coach Brady Collins This hire will not make huge headlines and you will…

Giannis Antetokounmpo

Giannis Antetokounmpo is a national treasure. He is not only a wonder to watch on the court but genuinely seems like a fun person to hang out with. During last night’s game against the Mavs, Giannis was having some fun during a timeout. Giannis played with a toy dinosaur on the scorer’s table during last night’s game. https://twitter.com/bleacherreport/status/1597064208364945409?s=21&t=Hdh7KmSQHmxwS6QMTiPf5A Giannis Plays With Toy Dinosaur Giannis doesn’t waste an opportunity to have fun.

Christian Watson Matt LaFleur Green Bay Packers

Joe Barry Green Bay Packers

The Packers lost to the Eagles 40-33 on Sunday night. While the offense showed a lot of promise, the defense was downright atrocious. They did force one turnover and got a couple of sacks but overall the play was poor. The Packers’ run defense was historically bad on Sunday. https://twitter.com/AndyHermanNFL/status/1597085997074120704?s=20&t=OgJCzapIDonnrPGEu1DL-Q&fbclid=IwAR0Ge_S9D2GRfEiAM72xVEu9pKEsMrz95cxjZ3racM5uxMtmIY9EHhVNKTI The Packers’ Run Defense Was Historically Bad On Sunday The stat above tells you all you need to know.
