Power Rangers Review: "The Mutiny: Part II"
Even now, 30 years later, I still fondly remember this three-part arc that kicked off the second season of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. It was absolutely epic, legendary, and iconic for sure, and every time I rewatch all three parts, my inner nine-year-old beams with joy. Part I, of course, featured the debut of Lord Zedd, who was the higher-up of Rita Repulsa and her minions. Within moments, he ejected Rita from the palace due to her constant failure to defeat the Power Rangers, all while Goldar, in the immortal words of the late, great Godfather of Soul himself, "sold her out for chicken change."

Power Rangers Review: "The Mutiny: Part I"
In such a short time, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers became the ultimate kids' program on Fox, airing original episodes six days a week and gaining an immense following. I was eight years old when this whole thing started, and I was hooked even before I turned nine. The episodes were a hit, the toys were selling like hotcakes. It was official: the Power Rangers were a phenomenon.

Three-Peat on the Horizon? (AFC West Preview)
Ah, the AFC West, aka Patrick Mahomes' torture chamber. I joke, but honestly, if the rest of the division had any gumption, I wouldn't call it that. In all seriousness, while the AFC West now appears to resemble what the AFC East was when Brady was with the Patriots, there is potential in all four teams. We saw some real big time tension in the final weeks of the division, which tells me that the AFC West can be interesting when it wants to be.

The Immensely Interesting Career of Shannen Doherty
An immensely heartbreaking weekend full of tragic celebrity passings sadly includes the always amazing Shannen Doherty. On July 13, 2024, Shannen Doherty passed away at the age of 53, after battling breast cancer for nine years, having first been diagnosed back in 2015. She continued to work steadily during her illness, which had been in remission, only to return in 2020 and spread out in 2023.

Power Rangers Review: "Return of an Old Friend"
Since television became a thing so many decades ago, so many shows have had that moment. You know the one I'm talking about: "Where were you when this happened?" That moment. Where were you when someone shot J.R. Ewing? Where were you when the 4077 left Korea? Where were you when Jerry, George, Elaine, and Kramer all ended up facing the proverbial music in 1998? A small group of many landmark moments all over television.

A Look Back at CJ Perry's Brief, but Spectacular AEW Tenure
I've been a huge fan of CJ Perry ever since she first appeared in WWE under her familiar name, Lana. Hard to believe that her wrestling career has lasted for over a decade, it doesn't seem like it's been that long. Eight of those years were spent in WWE, usually as the (often) villainous manager for the then-named Rusev--a gimmick that started back on NXT. It wasn't until her last few years in WWE that we would finally start to see Lana actually compete in the ring, but just as she was about to really rise on her own, she gets the rug pulled from her. A release in 2021.

Power Rangers Review: "Doomsday"
As I mentioned in a past review, when I was a kid, I actually didn't like the group of episodes that aired after "The Green Candle" and before "Return of an Old Friend." The reason, for me, was simple: the Power Rangers felt empty without Tommy. I did grow out of that attitude as I got older, and I would enjoy that group of episodes again, as they definitely had their moments. However, if there was one episode from that brief period that I loved even back then, it was definitely "Doomsday."

CFL Week 5 Recap: New Kings of the West?
Amazing. We are already just over a full month into the 2024 Canadian Football League season, and we have some new intriguing storylines this year. Fittingly, let's start with the British Columbia Lions, who ended Week 5 in Hamilton against the lowly, lowly Tiger-Cats. Regarding the game, there was not much to tell. It was over when it started. The Lions were mauling Hamilton very easily, and in the end, BC won 44-28 over the TiCats.

Houston, You Are a Problem for Your Rivals (AFC South Preview)
The AFC South, in recent years, has been quite...well...interesting. The last two seasons have ended with the division's games being quite vital, and both times, it was Houston vs Indy in one game, while Jacksonville faced Tennessee in another. In 2022, it was only Jacksonville and Tennessee that was the important game, as that game decided the AFC South. In 2023, both games were very vital, as three of the teams were looking to get into the playoffs.

Will the Pittsburgh Penguins' Playoff "Drought" End in 2024-25?
I know that it's been literally two weeks since the Stanley Cup was awarded. However, while watching a MLB game between the New York Mets and the Pittsburgh Pirates, I saw a kid in a Pittsburgh Penguins t-shirt. That moment had me thinking about the Penguins and, more notably, their recent struggles as of late.
