Where the rubber hits the road on your daily NFL news!
2020 NFL Schedule is finally out. Intriguing week 1 matchups and 5 matchups that are somewhat under the radar.
Yes, after a long wait the NFL finally has released the 2020 schedules and I am so excited. As always the NFL does a great job of scheduling the best matchups on paper with plenty of hype into the primetime slots, although there could have been several changes to include more primetime games for a team with an abundance of talent *cough* Colts *cough* and less for a team lacking in star power *cough* Patriots *cough* but nonetheless the schedule is intriguing to observe through and hopefully circumstances outside of football do not derail any hopes of the NFL season beginning Thursday, September 10th and beyond.

In this episode I speak about the details on the embarrassing incident of Baltimore Ravens safety, Earl Thomas III and the unfortunate, terrible incident involving former Jacksonville Jaguars linebacker, Telvin Smith. As both cases have yet to involve a court appearance at this point I can only explain the details leading up to each event, but when more details come out I will elaborate more on each situation. Two of golfs greatest players each teaming up two of the greatest quarterbacks of all time for a great cause of raising at least 10 million dollars for COVID-19 relief efforts.

Pull UP Podcast w/ CJ McCollum & Jordan Schultz - NFL fans, including myself, draft talk, preferred beverage
First off I'd like to thank CJ McCollum, Jordan Schultz, and the producer(s) very much who gave me the opportunity to be a part of their most previous podcast episode.

Overall, I enjoyed every minute I was apart of this experience. We also spoke about everyones preferred beverage at the very end. During the conversation I had a tiny mishap which was a tad bit embarrassing, but it's all good LOL. UNEDITED!

2020 NFL Draft Recap: AFC Edition
In this episode I speak about 8 AFC teams and what their draft selections mean going forward for the franchise. Despite the fact they have been inferior to the NFC the past decade, the AFC in my logical opinion, led by drafting the top 3 quarterbacks in the draft, elevated themselves towards success more than the NFC post draft. Outside of bias and politics I love what some of these AFC teams did for their franchises and are loaded with amazing young talent ready to elevate their respective teams to new and/or even better heights. I hope you will enjoy it!

2020 NFL Draft Recap: NFC Edition
In this episode I speak about 6 NFC teams who I felt either took a unique approach in their selections in the draft or who I felt lifted themselves closer to having a successful 2020 season. I did not completely agree with all their decisions, but only time and play on the field will tell who ultimately won the draft in their respective rights.

Rob Gronkowski and the Buccaneers, 2020 Division winners, pre draft moves
In this episode I speak about Gronk's return in the National Football League and is reunion with New Tampa Bay quarterback, Tom Brady as well as what really pushed Gronk to come out of retirement. Was it for the love of the game? Did the possibility of a new fresh start in a different environment entice him to play again? Is his love for Brady and the attraction of a talented Bucs team so strong he simply couldn't turn down the possibility of making another Super Bowl Run? How about all of the above? I also speak about my chosen 8 division winners for 2020 pre-draft. Most you may agree with, others you may find questionable that ay even raise your eyebrows high. Last, but not least I Gove my simple thoughts on a few teams picking early in the upcoming draft as well as 1 team that may make a hard push to select a player in the center of their radar.

Females are NFL fanatics, too!
On this episode I had the big pleasure of, again, interviewing one of the best sports reporters/journalists in the world, Judy Battista! She is an Associated Press Sports Editor winner and in my opinion one of the most famous faces in the NFL business (even though she isn't so sure about that :}) Her content in writing as well as her frequent appearances live on NFL Network make her a reliable and credible asset to the sport as well as the fans. I was glad to get her thorough insight in the topics we touched based on, including the rise of women in the business of NFL football. Thank you, Judy!!  UNEDITED EPISODE!
