Ray Mirra - The Inspirational Sports Writer
Playing football takes a lot of courage.He still recalls one of his favorite players who was drafted straight out of college – whom he was unable to convince to make his home address public, even though it would have helped him sell more subscriptions. But, if you ask him about it today, he will tell you how much respect he has for someone who was willing to do that.

2022 AFC Predictions
It's far from an understatement to suggest that the AFC conference seems to be reaching a level of competition far exceeding its NFC counterpart. Following the slight fall of the Patriots after Tom Brady's departure, it seems that several teams have used this opportunity to stack their rosters and challenge the Chiefs as the next true perennial kings of the conference. The 2022 offseason has been a prime example of this, with the Chargers and the Raiders nabbing key NFC talent in Adams and Mack, it seems that the entire division has become an armsrace for dominance. In this piece, I will detail the positions of each team, and make an appropriate prediction for them in light of their competition. Following the season, I will return to this article and address my predictions in comparison to reality.

Classic Movie Review: 'Field of Dreams' Major League Baseball Returns to Dyersville
No movie better exemplifies America’s love of baseball, and more importantly why we love baseball, than Kevin Costner’s 1989 Best Picture nominee Field of Dreams. With Major League Baseball having now been played at the legendary Field of Dreams in Dyersville, Iowa, and my Chicago Cubs headed there in August against the Cincinnati Reds, I am in the mood to look back on Field of Dreams as part of my Summer of Classics Movie Review Series.

How much do you love basketball? Who is your favorite basketball star?
The first time I watched a basketball game was in 2002. When I was less than six years old, I was paying a New Year's visit to my relatives. The scene was still clear. When I happened to see CCTV5, I was shocked to see a strong man throw the ball from the backcourt and the ball went into the net at the buzzer. That man, I later learned, was none other than Karl Malone, who was nearing the end of his career. It was that game that started my exploration of the world of basketball. Due to tutor reasons, I was often locked in the home, in addition to study, I would think of the basketball game. Basketball has been with me since my childhood until now. It is probably not too much to say that I spent more time watching basketball games in my childhood than people of the same age spent watching cartoons. It is because of too many experiences watching basketball and those memories are recorded in my mind. And followed by a Asian giants face appeared in my line of sight, yao Ming's story I have not much narrative, at a time when the media was not developed in the information age, only through television cctv5 also to watch NBA games, but mostly is the Houston rockets game to be played, so most people's rocket affair also yielded, and besides I know yao Ming, Most of the people he played in the Rockets are still in his mind, including Francis, Cutton Mobley, Jim Jackson, Jermaine Taylor and Yao Ming. This is the starting five, and the reserve is also inside center Kato, Slovenia national team small forward Nachbar. This is Steve in the two years period of the rockets and yao, and I am not only focus on the rockets, at the same time and the rockets against a team (can't say all the players, because at that time was a little) famous player I will remember their shadow, especially the team, the rockets had battle I could remember more profound. For example, the Mavericks' trio of Steve Nash, Michael Finley and Dirk Lowitzki; The Kings' Michael Bibby, Brad Miller, Stojakovic (Peja), Chris Webber; Sam Cassell and Kevin Garnett of the Timberwolves; Pacers Steve Jackson, Shaquille O 'Neal jr., RON Artest; Duncan, Gilobili, Parker and Alberto of The Spurs; The Pistons had Chauncey Billups, Richard Hamilton, Prince Prince, rasheed Wallace, and Ben Ben in his aft-head days. Of course, the most important is the Rockets in the playoff elimination of the Lakers F4 Kobe Bryant, SHAquille O 'Neal, Malone, Payton. (Above are some memories of yao's two years of cooperation.) Here are some memories of my favorite star, Tracy McGrady's Houston Rockets, and yao's journey to the top. It was the end of summer in 2004. Because of the time difference, NBA in the United States was broadcast in the morning, but what surprised me that day was that THERE were NBA games to watch in the evening. Anyway, let's watch them first! Either! Have Liu Wei, rockets vs Kings, more let me surprise is Francis and old cat mobley?? Later, through the basketball commentary, I learned that The boss went to Orlando Magic, and the old cat Cuttino mobley went to Sacramento Kings, let me feel more depressed, so good teammates away from the Rockets how to play, let me more worried. As a result, I was impressed by two people watching the game. One was the unique hairstyle on the furrow (after all, it was the first time I saw it). By the way, he was the future champion coach Tyronn Lue, wearing the Rockets No. 10 jersey; And the other is because of that day's flowing shooting and efficient performance of Tracy McGrady wearing the Rockets no. 1 jersey, people are looking for a one-handed dry pull jump shot, scissor-leg and the one-handed grab on the back of the ball. It also started my understanding of him. These two games were the China Games held by NBA in China. Liu Wei, the point guard of the national team, played these two games as a trial, but he was still not accepted by the Kings. In this period of the Rockets also have good players, Brent Barry's elder brother bald Joan Barry, 35 white god shot Padgett, white point guard Sura, outside shooter Hyde, physical talent super rough Swift, the second uncle Juwan Howard, street king Alston, To later shane battier (06 rocket ready to take the first round 8 sign sign Huang Man brandon Roy, the result was, finally signed Rudy gay, then the rockets take the guy for the grizzlies battier), disconnect type free throws small center hayes, bonzi Wells, masonry luis scola, first-round pick Randall, 20 top striker novak, Weaver, who played with passion, and Brooks, the most improved player. These guys were with yao and McGrady, and I got to know a lot of great players during that time. Such as ray Allen in the Seattle supersonics, lewis of the Washington wizards, arenas, caron butler, the New Jersey nets jamison kidd and carter, Jefferson bucks Michael redd, mo Williams, Chinese enemies Andrew bogut, yi jianlian career began the celtics' Paul Pierce, Ricky Davis, the heat's rookie dwyane wade, white chocolate, peyton Williams, alonzo mourning, shaq, udonis haslem the Steve Nash, amare stoudemire and shawn Marion and leandro barbosa, Boris diaw, raja bell, three-point q quentin Richardson, the knicks marbury, David lee, Chris Du Hong, gallinari, jamal crawford, the warriors of baron Davis, Montana, Alice , the captain Steve Jackson, harrington, don nelson (when the warriors coach) love left hand inside than pippen aldrin, France pietrus magic Howard, nelson, JJ riddick, hedo turkoglu knights of the old jg, big Z, larry hughes, diving drill ilgau early experts varejao, today the streets of deron, west 76 Allen iverson , iguodala, tees, Yang, Daimler potter Atlanta hawks Wang Qiao Johnson, bounce josh Smith of the Denver nuggets melon Anthony, nerve knife JR Smith, left arm tattoo of man's moral marcus camby, Kenyon Martin, Anthony carter grizzlies Paul gasol, Michael miller, who finally emphasized, of course, is to let the rockets season Two teams lost: the Dallas Mavericks and the Utah Jazz. First of all, to say the Dallas mavericks, the rockets did that year by referee whistle, but the mavericks power or some of the old driver will not say, there are very accurate cic's josh Howard, the best sixth person Jason terry, veteran center erick dampier, rookie dwyane Harris, jerry stackhouse, The rockets lost that series, too. Then there was the mighty Utah Jazz, with Deron Williams, AK47 Kirilenko, Boozer, Turkish cannon Okur, Paul Millsap, Korver, CJ Miles, Ronnie Brewer giving the Rockets a second straight loss to them, and coach Jerry Sloan really deserves some credit for that. As an old fan of 17 or 18 years during this period also experienced a variety of things, and many unforgettable memories. I also really love the sport of basketball, childhood dream was to be a basketball commentator commentator, may not realize, but now my love of this competition, I also hope to share my experienced for so many years, for some basketball understanding of cognitive comprehension to share with everyone, you are always welcome to share with me!
