2018-19 NBA MVP Predictions
There's always a lot of controversy about who should bring home the MVP trophy. Last year for example, James Harden had an exceptionable season and was awarded but people argued that LeBron James had played his best season of his career. Russell Westbrook also had another triple-double averaging season, Anthony Davis was a runner-up along with runner-up for DPOY, and the two Warriors Kevin Durant and Steph Curry played exceptionably well. Question is, who will win it this year? These are the top 5 candidates to win the MVP.

Michigan Football Is Back
Michigan is looking like the team that we would expect them to be under Jim Harbaugh and frankly, we should not be surprised. His track record speaks for itself and despite popular opinion, he had already elevated Michigan prior to this season.

Game #8: Winnipeg Jets vs Arizona Coyotes
After submitting the story from the previous game, somehow or other, the 3 game point scoring streak of Nikolaj Ehlers was accidentally left out of the story’s game end notes. Apologies to Mr. Ehlers for that blunder. He, along with Patrik Laine, are both on three game point scoring streaks while Andrew Copp and Adam Lowry are each on two game point scoring streaks coming into Saturday afternoon's action. But that does beg the question, when would the Jets start getting a positive team streak to put on the chalkboard along with these amazing streaks?

Luka Doncic: Boy Wonder
Whenever the basketball world is introduced to a European prospect, we all typically call BS, often rightfully so. For every Dirk Nowitzki and Tony Parker and Giannis Antetokounmpo (only took me two tries to spell that LOL), we get dozens of players who never reach their potential, failing to be even average NBA players.

Game #7: Winnipeg Jets vs Vancouver Canucks
October 18th saw the Jets come head to head with a red-hot team in the form of the Vancouver Canucks, who had won their previous three games. However, the Jets were having none of that, especially after their experiences two nights earlier against the one-man wrecking crew called the Edmonton (Connor McDavid) Oilers, having lost the game in the last 23 minutes played, including the overtime. Also, the Jets welcomed back veteran defenseman Dustin Byfuglien to the fold, after recovering from an upper body injury. Thanks to what they learned in the previous home game, the Winnipeg Jets came out with a resounding 4-1 victory over the Vancouver Canucks.

Wrestling Is Money
In the world of wrestling, there are many companies to watch or if you’re a wrestler, perform. WWE has always been at the top and most likely forever will be, we all loved Stone Cold, The Rock etc. In the last couple years, there have been other companies giving WWE a run for their money—Ring of Honor (ROH) and New Japan Pro Wrestling (NJPW). These companies have BIG stars in them at moment and people have a feeling WWE might be taking them away so they have less competition.

'WWE Crown Jewel' 2018 Predictions
WWE Crown Jewel isprobably the most controversial event in WWE history. Surprisingly, it's not even dealing with the in-ring talent. Politics are a headache, I guess. Since it looks like they are still going through with the event this should be a very intresting card. It should be a good time for old school fans and maybe a little confusing for the younger crowd. This event features The Undertaker, Triple H, Kane, and Shawn Michaels. It's 2018 feeling like the 90s all of a sudden. The matches on this card have that Wrestlemania feel to it, so it let's run down this craziness and make some predictions:

Week 7 Picks Against the Spread
It's Thursday night and I just got home from a date that I did not want to be on but I went because a friend of mine convinced me to go and I felt bad about being there because it was never going to result to anything long term. I don't like misleading people, like the NY Giants, specifically Eli Manning, mislead me this past off season that he still had something left in the tank and the Giants would be good this year. So much hate but at least NBA season started this week; a saving grace when your favorite football team sucks and the NFL makes you sad now.

Re-Brand
Branding is everything in the marketplace. It's why people ask for Kleenex instead of facial tissue and Coke instead of cola. WWE, at times, seems to only care about the Wrestlemania brand, but still expect people to care about the other eleven months of the year. This is where I come in and offer my unsolicited consultation. Today we tackle Survivor Series.
