The State of the United States
It’s February 2, 2020 better known as Superbowl Sunday. The Kansas City Chiefs are trailing the San Francisco 49ers by two scores late in the third quarter. Andy Reid, Patrick Mahomes, the entire Chiefs roster and Chiefs nation understand that time is of the essence and how imperative the next drive is. The Chiefs rally from down ten to answer with twenty one unanswered points in the fourth quarter to prevail with a final score of 31-20. Every Chiefs fan embraces their loved ones, friends and family members that have endured the last fifty years without the joy of winning the last game of the season.

Promotion and Relegation?
The great debate of North American soccer enthusiasts: Promotion versus Relegation. Arguably since the early days of pro soccer the idea within the North American soccer landscape has been an ongoing debate (I’m talking specifically in reference to USA/Canada). Yet, roughly 100 years later North American soccer still does not have promotion and relegation at any level. This is made all the more curious by the fact that the pro/rel system is a system of league organization that is widely used throughout the world. Further still the fact that it is not part of MLS league makeup makes MLS one of the few first-division professional soccer leagues in the world where clubs don't have to fear of getting dropped to a lower league. But the question is why the resistance? Sports after all feed on drama and what better way to add drama than to include a tried and true method to a league looking to attract more fans. The way I see it promotion and relegation is not some monumental hurdle that can’t be overcome but one that has too many excuses as to why it can’t be accomplished.

Remembering Harley Race
On August 1st 2019, the professional wrestling world lost a man who genuinely deserves the superlatives that are often thrown around with a cavalier attitude; legend, icon, pioneer. A man who embodied what it once meant to be a pro wrestler, and a pro wrestler who embodies what it once meant to be a man.
