Kaito Streets is OK after groin stab during his Olympic fencing match
July 28th, 2021 under Sports figures. [ Comments: none ]

On Saturday, Kaito Streets was playing in his second fencing match at the 2020 Olympics. It is a dream come true for any athlete who trains for this chance. But his dream became a nightmare. His opponent Eli Dershwitz accidentally hit him on the medals.

And with that, he was down. But he is not out. He made TikTok rewatching the moment and let us know he is OK. Embarrassed, but OK.

In fact, he is doing so much better he was able to compete today.

I am sure he hates that this happened to him on the international stage. However, at least now, we will remember and talk about him for years to come. I say it is better to be remembered than to win.

The Cleveland Indians have a new name
July 23rd, 2021 under Sports figures. [ Comments: none ]

After years of people asking the Cleveland Indians to change their name, they finally announced that starting next season, they will be known as something else. Get ready for the Cleveland Guardians.

The name comes from the sculptures at the end of the city’s Hope Bridge that are known as the Guardians of Traffic.

The baseball team announced last year that they would be changing their name. They asked 4,000 fans to help pick a new one and then surveyed 40,000 to pick the best one. They wanted a name that would be loyal to the team’s history and also unite the community.

Do you think Cleveland Guardians hits a home run, or did they stuck out?

Tony Romo’s son did not inherit his football skills

Tony Romo is considered one of the greatest football players of all time. Therefore, you would think he would have passed that ability down to his sons. He did not.

Watch Hawk, 9, and Rivers, 7, tossing the pigskin. What the two don’t have natural ability, they make up for cuteness.

They will get better in time. If not, they can play soccer.

Do you want to jam with Space Jam: A New Legacy?

LeBron James is leaving the court to play a basketball player in Space Jam: A New Legacy on July 16th.

I wasn’t sure what to expect from the movie and his acting, but the trailer won me over. Not him, per se, but the Looney Tunes characters being looney. Who doesn’t love them doing that?

Are you going to watch the movie when it becomes available on the big screen and on HBO Max?

Things got catty at the LA Dodgers/Colorado Rockies game
April 3rd, 2021 under Animals, Sports figures. [ Comments: none ]


Yesterday was opening day for Major League Baseball at Coors Field for The Rockies, and everything was great going into the 7th inning stretch. But then things got interesting when there was an extra player on the field. Well, not a player, but a cat.

The beautiful grey kitty ran faster than an outfielder, trying to catch a line drive before it is out of there. On that note, why didn’t the outfielders try to capture the feline? Instead, they let a ball gal do it. Proving it takes a woman to do a man’s job.

No word what happened to feline yet, but I hope they make it their mascot.

UPDATE: To see how the kitty got on the field, then click here!
