March Madness - Final Four

The Final Four is finally set. After a long run of many, many games, we finally have our final four teams that each have a chance at the championship. There's two number one seeds, a number three seed, and a number seven seed. In this blog I'll be previewing each team. South Carolina South Carolina is a number seven seed, the "Cinderella story" of March Madness 2017. Most people actually expected them to lose in the first round to Marquette. In fact, on ESPN Tournament Challenge, 56% of people had South Carolina losing first round. Even if they won, which they did, most people expected them to lose to Duke by a lot. But they beat number two Duke, they beat number three Baylor and they beat number four Florida, and now find themselves in the Final Four facing Gonzaga. Issue:  Rebounding. South Carolina has the least amount of rebounds per game out of the Final Four, and is going up against a very tall and good at rebounding team in Gonzaga. South Carolina has no l

MLB Preivew/Predictions

MLB opening day: April 2nd. The day every baseball fan cannot wait for every single year. The day the baseball season starts. Every year, there's sleepers, teams who everyone knows will win and teams who everyone knows will do bad. Over the off season, there have been many big signings and trades that will certainly make some teams better and some teams worse. So this blog will be my MLB predictions for each team's record and division standings this year. I'll be listing my predictions and their actual record last year with the playoffs at the bottom. Let's start in the National League with the NL East. 1. New York Mets: Prediction - 93-69; Last Season - 87-75 2. Washington Nationals: Prediction - 90-72; Last Season - 95-67 3. Atlanta Braves: Prediction - 78-84; Last Season -  68-93 4. Philadelphia Phillies: Prediction - 75-87; Last Season - 71-91 5. Miami Marlins: Prediction - 73-89; Last Season - 79-82 Here's the thing with the Mets. They need to stay h

The Cleveland Browns free agency

Wow. I'm writing this blog on only day four of the NFL free agency, and already the Cleveland Browns have done things that I could have only dreamed about before today. They did something right! They signed a wide receiver (Kenny Britt), traded for a quarterback (Brock Osweiler and his $16 million dollar contract), resigned an offensive guard (Joel Bitonio), and signed another guard and a center (Kevin Zietler and JC Tretter respectfully). Granted, they did let Terrelle Pryor walk and go to the Washington Redskins, but as previously stated, Kenny Britt has been signed to take his place. The Browns also have eleven draft picks this year and eleven next year. So far, their strategy has been to stockpile draft picks, so they might get even more picks in the upcoming years. Anyways, I think that Britt, Zietler, and Tretter were all fantastic signings. Let's start with Britt. I think that Britt has the potential to replace Terrelle Pryor and become the Browns number one wide rec
