Bruno Sammartino: A Hero Long Before WWE Wrestling
Photo by swiftwj Facing George “the animal” Steele, Gorilla Monsoon, Bobo Brazil or being the last one standing in the 22 Man Battle Royale in Los Angeles are pre WWE wrestling instances that all amount to just another day in the life of Bruno Sammartino. On the other hand, fleeing to the Italian mountains from the Nazi’s during WWII made everything that followed seem like child’s play. But it still may be fair to ask, as the bombs were falling and his village being leveled, how much sense could a boy of nine actually make of this.

Lebron James won the two hardest championships... or did he (part 2)?
In case you missed the last episode, I touched on why I believe Lebron's 2016 NBA championship wasn't the first or second hardest championship in NBA history. This time around, I don't want to frame this opinion in the same way that I framed the last one. Since this championship is moreso fresh in our minds, I am not going to go through each opponent's record and key players as much as I did before. I don't want you to feel like your hearing the same exact thing twice. That's just repetitive and boring. Let's use a little more common sense and not as much technical stats because you can get that from any ESPN or Fox Sports kind of article. Having said this, I believe Lebron's 2020 NBA championship has a little more weight of being the hardest championship of all-time (or second), but I still think it's not.

The Cowboys is a football team that is known for making a stricking come back. Tony Romo is the best quarterback in history. Romo signed a one hundred eight million dollar contract in 2013. Romo went undrafted in 2003 before signing with the Cowboys. Romo has led the Cowboys to five playoff appearances. Romo's contract was restructured by the Cowboys in April to convert sixteen million of his seventeen million 2015 base salary into a signing bonus. That move freed up the salary cap space for the Cowboys. The one hundred eight million dollar contract signed by Romo in 2013 was the biggest in the history of the franchise. The franchise quarterback has been to the Pro Bowl four times and holds numerous Cowboys records. Romo’s best playoff performance ever was after the 2014 regular season when the Cowboys were eliminated in the divisional round by the Green Bay Packers. He completed sixty eight percent of his passes with four touchdowns and no interceptions over two games. Romo is very popular with Corporate America. Some of his endorsement partners include DirecTV, Under Armour, Core Power and Pizza Hut. Starting the season Romo begin as a backup to starter Drew Bledsoe. He took his first regular season snap at quarterback in a home game against the Houston Texans on October 15. His first NFL pass was a 33-yard completion to wide receiver Sam Hurd. Romo led the Cowboys to victory in his first game as a starter, 35–14. Tony Romo decided to retire after a fifteen long year Cowboys career. Zack Martin is the best offensive guard player heading into this 2020 season. Zack Martin has been the most reliable and efficient member of the Cowboys since being drafted in 2014. The Cowboys have an awesome team. They are always rocking. Cowboys top world at $5.5 billion as one of the most valuable sports fanchise. More than half of 2020 top fifty teams worldwide come from the NFL. The Dallas Cowboys top the entire list for the fifth straight year. The Dallas Cowboys had their usual Thanksgiving game with precautions. They played a hard but good Thanksgiving day game; even though Washington came through in the fourth quarter. Covid 19 has affected many teams. It’s been a rought year for all sports. The people that are in charge of the Sports in general are all doing their best. They are trying to still have the games but also making sure it isn't too many people. I believe sports will get better because someone will find away to make games even safer. Here are a few Dallas Cowboy players.

Hockey Team #8
Let’s now turn to one of the most dominant franchises of the 2010s. Between the 2008-09 and 2014-15 seasons, the Chicago Blackhawks won three Stanley Cups and made it to the final of the West Conference on two more occasions. After winning the Cup for the first time in 2010 against Pittsburgh, Chicago did it again in 2013 and 2015 against Philadelphia and Tampa Bay. Since then, there has been no presence in the second round. The Hawks are currently being rebuilt, and I think it is well underway.

Lebron James won the two hardest championships... or did he (part 1)?
Recently the 4-time NBA finals champion, Lebron James, made some interesting comments about his championships. During an episode of Road Trippin, Lebron James claims to have won the two hardest championships in NBA league history. The championships he's referring to are the 2016 and 2020 NBA championships. Lebron's quote was "The one thing that I know for sure is that I've been a part of two teams (that have) won the two hardest championships in NBA league history." I think we all can agree that what Lebron James accomplished in 2016 was magical in coming back from a 3-1 lead deficit. Also, what he and the Lakers was able to do this year due to the outside circumstances of COVID-19 and the BLM movement was certaintly amazing. In my opinion, I believe that the 2020 year NBA championship may have a case to be the hardest (although I believe it's weak), but the 2016 championship has very little weight for the hardest NBA championship in history.
