The sports world continues even during vacation. Craig Shemon and Company took a week off to mentally charge before football season starts. Moving forward we will have football every weekend between now and February! But in the last week some interesting things happened which we will recap on our show. Catch us every weekday from 2-6pm on ESPN Southwest Florida.
Some of the things that occurred, in chronological order: We had an NFL preseason game halted due to a serious injury. The Lions Morice Norris suffered a head/neck injury vs the Falcons. Players were so upset they did not continue the game. We are glad to report Norris has recovered.
A major injury occurred in the annual Yankees Old Timers Game. Hall of Fame reliever Mariano Rivera tore his Achilles. Yikes.
THE SPORTS WORLD CONTINUES
We saw Jaguars kicker Cam Little nail a 70 yard field goal in a preseason game. If it had occurred in a regular season game it would have been an NFL record...by a lot.
Shedeur Sanders made his preseason NFL debut for the Browns and looked pretty good. Stay tune for more on that quarterback soap opera.
The NCAA finally levied its "punishment" on Michigan for the Connor Stalions SpyGate scandal. The school has to pay a fine that could reach $30 million dollars and coach Sherrone Moore will have to add a game to his 2 game, self imposed suspension. But he won't serve it until 2026. That's weird. Former coach Jim Harbaugh will get another 10- year show cause penalty. That's in addition to his 4 year show cause he got for BurgerGate.
Certainly we will discuss the Dolphins - Lions game on the radio show. Both teams seem to have found their backup QBs. And did you catch last night's Bills - Bears game? It looks like new head coach Ben Johnson has his offense dialed in! There is a lot to talk about on our radio show as the sports world continues even during vacation!
