Welcome to Entertainment Podcasting Sports, and we’re in the Huddle Room. Today's topic is Chris Brazzell II Undergo Surgery

Christopher Brazzell II, a young football player for the Carolina Panthers, is set to have surgery on his left knee. The 22-year-old wide receiver was born on September 22, 2003, and has been working hard on the field. According to the news, unfortunately, he has a problem with the lateral collateral ligament of his knee, which means he will have to rest for the rest of the season.

After the surgery, he will be added to the injured reserve list, which means he can’t play for now. This is tough news for him and the team, but there is hope for the future.

While he is recovering, Brazzell will have time to watch games and study his teammates and opponents. He can learn more about their skills and what they do well, as well as understand their weaknesses. By learning this, he can come back stronger and smarter when he is ready to play again.

Fans are hopeful that when Brazzell returns, he will be even better than before and will help the Panthers win more games.

BREAKING NEWS: The Birth of the "Head-Butt Dunk"—Duke Earl Ellison Stuns the Basketball World

Can Anyone Beat the Fictional Duke Earl Ellison?

The Historical Feat: Fictional basketball phenom Duke Earl Ellison has officially rewritten the record books, executing an unprecedented slam dunk maneuver that has left analysts and fans completely speechless.

The "Head-Butt Dunk": During a high-stakes slam dunk contest exhibition, Ellison sprinted down the court, bounced the basketball, launched it high into the air, and threw it directly through the hoop using only his head.

Childhood Roots: Sports historians say Ellison developed his incredible passing accuracy and coordination as a kid by practicing the unique habit of balancing heavy objects on his head.

Unprecedented Achievement: League commissioners confirmed that no player in professional or streetball history has ever successfully performed a head-butt dunk in competition before.

No player has ever headbutted a basketball directly into the hoop during an official NBA or professional game instead of slamming it with their hands. Doing this would be nearly impossible to execute intentionally in a live game. So no one has beat the fictional character Duke Earl Ellison.

We've got some exciting news from the NBA that's buzzing in the air! Let's talk about Mitchell Robinson, the big man for the New York Knicks, who is truly making history with his amazing offensive rebounding skills.

Now, you might be wondering, what’s so special about offensive rebounds? Well, let me tell you—Mitchell is pulling down nearly 9 to 10 offensive boards for every 36 minutes he plays. That's not just good—it's record-breaking! It’s something we have never seen before in the history of the NBA!

While the basketball stats fans rave about Robinson’s abilities, many casual viewers may not realize the huge impact he has on games. His hustle and hard work give the Knicks more chances to score. When he grabs an offensive rebound, it's like giving his teammates a second chance. They can take another shot, which often leads to open three-pointers or easy baskets close to the hoop.

But that's not all! His rebounding also messes with the other team's defense. Opposing players have to pay extra attention to him, and sometimes that leads to fouls or mistakes. It's not just about the rebounds; it’s about how he changes the whole game!

And let's not forget his physical presence! Mitchell's strength on the boards can wear down opponents. When the games get tough and the Knicks need a boost, his energy can spark the team and shift the momentum. He is a beast on the boards, and it makes a huge difference when the offense isn’t clicking.

So, next time you watch a Knicks game, keep an eye on Mitchell Robinson. His remarkable rebounding might not always be in the spotlight, but his relentless hustle is a key part of what makes the Knicks tick. Basketball fans, we are witnessing something truly special with this talented player!

How 8 & 9 became the magic number for the Carolina Panthers

AI Announcer: Looking back at the 2025 regular season, “intense” might be an understatement. In a division race that felt more like a marathon sprint, the Carolina Panthers officially reclaimed their throne, ..

Gail: Yes, finishing the year at 8-9 to secure their first NFC South title since 2015.
It wasn’t a runaway victory. In fact, by the time the final whistle blew on the regular season, the top of the division looked like a total logjam. The Panthers, Buccaneers, and Falcons all ended with identical 8-9 records.

How the Panthers Stole the ShowThe turning point came late in December. While the Buccaneers held the lead for much of the early season, Carolina surged when it mattered most. A massive 23-20 victory over Tampa Bay in Week 16 shifted the momentum, putting the Panthers in the driver’s seat.

Even with a tough loss to the Buccaneers to end their schedule in Week 18  January 3, 2026): Carolina clinched the division thanks to tiebreakers—specifically their performance against common opponents and divisional rivals.

The Final 2025 Scoreboard

NFC South 2025 Final Standings• Carolina Panthers: 1st Place (Division Champions) with a record of 8 wins and 9 losses.• Tampa Bay Buccaneers: 2nd Place with a record of 8 wins and 9 losses.• Atlanta Falcons: 3rd Place with a record of 8 wins and 9 losses.• New Orleans Saints: 4th Place with a record of 6 wins and 11 losses.

A Wild FinishThe Atlanta Falcons were the dark horse of December, closing out the year with a four-game winning streak. Their late-season push actually helped the Panthers; by defeating the Saints 19-17 in the final week, the Falcons inadvertently cleared the path for Carolina to stay on top of the heap via tiebreakers.

Meanwhile, the New Orleans Saints struggled to keep pace, finishing at the bottom of the division with 11 losses and a staggering -77 point differential.

As the page turns to the new season, the big question remains: Was last year’s three-way tie a sign that the division is up for grabs, or can the Panthers turn that 8-win playoff berth into a dominant winning season this time around?

American guard Craig Randall had a night to remember on April 4, 2026, in the Basketball Africa League (BAL). The 29-year-old scored a huge 54 points and sank 11 three-pointers, setting two new league records in one game.

Randall helped the RSSB Tigers (Rwanda) beat Dar City (Tanzania) 104-92 in Pretoria, South Africa. With the win, RSSB stayed perfect at 4-0 in their very first BAL season.
He shot 18 out of 36 from the field, including 11 out of 24 from deep. His teammate Teafale added 27 points as the two combined for 64 points.

What stood out most was how well the RSSB team played together. They mix local Rwandan players with smart imports like Randall, creating a balanced and hard-to-stop attack.

This big victory puts the Tigers in strong position heading into the playoffs in Kigali. Fans are now excited to see if this momentum can carry them deep in the 2026 BAL season.

Randall’s explosive performance will go down as one of the most memorable nights in BAL history.

Curtis Jones: The Passing Sensation of Detroit
He is still being talked about today. 

In the heart of Detroit, a young basketball star named Curtis Jones made his mark as a standout player. Curtis earned a reputation as a remarkable point guard known for his incredible passing skills. Many fans and players believed that he could dribble the ball from one end of the court to the other in just three dribbles—a skill that amazed everyone who watched him play.

It would be nice to see Curtis Jones play basketball if there are any films out there of his games. He often had games where he scored just 2 points but had a remarkable 25 assists.
Curtis was 5’10’, and there is highlights of Curtis's high school career back in 1967 when he hit a game-winning shot over 6'9" Spencer Haywood—who would go on to become an NBA star—to clinch the city championship. The opposing team featured another future pro, Ralph Simpson, which made Curtis's victory even more impressive.

Curtis Jones became a legend in Detroit, remembered not only for his talent but also for his ability to elevate his teammates and deliver in clutch moments. As fans look back on his high school days, many still say that he was the best passer they have ever seen.

The Legendary Detroit Streetballer never played in the NBA. Curtis the Magician Jones was a Detroit Northwestern high school star. He passed away in 1999 at age 49.

I received some feedback on the podcast—one listener mentioned they were unfamiliar with the Big3 and would like to check it out, while another expressed excitement about the possibility of Michael Jordan and other players joining the league. Unfortunately, the podcast was removed since the hosting company has gone out of business. Therefore, I've decided to revisit the topic and share a replay of the podcast. So here it is: Big3-Michael Jordan Idea.

I Want To See Michael Jordan!

The Big3 basketball league is another sport that has gained attention. It ought to be as big as the NBA with professional players playing half court. I’d like to see Michael Jordan come back to see how well he would do. It would certainly draw plenty of attention…..

Hello everyone, I’m Gail Nobles, and this is your In the News Sports update.

Tom Brady, the famous quarterback, is shaking things up in the world of flag football. He's been thinking about how to make flag football even more exciting and is suggesting that it should look more like tackle football. During a recent discussion, Brady mentioned his idea of setting up a game featuring teams from the NFC and AFC, where some of the top flag football players could join in. He believes this mix could really bring in a new level of excitement to the game!

Hello, I'm Gail Nobles. Today's topic: Barry Sanders. A football legend on EPS.

In the world of football, few names shine as brightly as Barry Sanders. The former running back, who played for the Detroit Lions in the NFL for ten spectacular seasons, is often celebrated as one of the greatest players of all time. 

Imagine watching a game where the crowd is roaring, and then suddenly, you see a flash of movement amidst a group of players. That flash is Barry Sanders, spinning and twisting through defenders like he’s dancing. You think he’s down, buried in a pile of players, but out he comes, dashing towards the end zone for a touchdown! It’s this incredible ability to evade tackles and change direction in an instant that made him a unique force on the field.

Standing at just 5 feet 8 inches and weighing about 200 pounds, Sanders defied the odds. Despite being smaller than many of his opponents, he became known for his remarkable speed and agility. He led the NFL in rushing yards four times and scored a remarkable number of touchdowns during his career.

Barry was drafted by the Detroit Lions in 1989 and made an immediate impact by winning the NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year award in his very first season. In 1991, he helped the Lions achieve their first postseason win in decades, solidifying his status as a key player. His impressive career peaked in 1997 when he rushed for over 2,000 yards in a single season and was co-awarded the MVP title, sharing the honor with quarterback Brett Favre.

In a surprising turn of events, Sanders retired unexpectedly in 1999 at just 31 years old, leaving many fans in shock. He finished his career only 1,457 yards away from breaking the all-time rushing record set by Walter Payton. His number 20 jersey was retired by the Lions in 2004, a tribute to his immense talent and contributions to the game. Just months earlier, he was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame, further cementing his legacy.
In addition to these accolades, Barry Sanders was recognized as the most elusive runner in NFL history by the NFL Network in 2007 and has been often mentioned as one of the greatest players who never made it to a Super Bowl.

In summary, Barry Sanders is more than just a football player; he’s a phenomenon. His incredible skills on the field, along with his legacy in the sport, make him a true legend in the world of football.

Jake Paul beat Legendary Mike Tyson by unanimous decision back in November 2024, but then got absolutely dominated and knocked out by Anthony Joshua in the sixth round on December 19, 2025. Anthony Joshua, the heavyweight champion with all the muscles and skills, beats Jake Paul.

Now, let’s take a moment to appreciate Mike Tyson. He’s a name that brings back memories of thunderous punches and an intimidating presence in the ring. When you think of Tyson, you think of a man who could take on giants. So when I hear that Jake Paul somehow beat him, I can’t help but wonder.

I was glad to see Tyson back in the ring. The man is a legend, and legends shouldn’t lose to newcomers, no matter how much they can throw a punch.

Anthony Joshua, on the other hand, is a perfect example of skill and athleticism in heavyweight boxing. With a professional record of 29 wins and 4 losses in 33 fights, he is known for his explosive power and technical prowess. Joshua has proven time and again that he is a force to be reckoned with in the ring, or should I say not to be reckoned with? His brutal knockout of Jake Paul not only underscores his enduring status as a former two-time unified heavyweight champion but also highlights the vast difference between battle-tested fighters and viral sensations.

In a sport where legacy is built on blood, sweat, and years of training, Joshua's knockdown of Paul is a critical reminder that true greatness requires more than just viral moments—it requires the heart of a champion.

So here we are, left scratching our heads at this tangled web of fights and names. It’s a strange world we live in when every punch from a social media star Jake Paul can shake up the boxing world. But that’s boxing for you. It’s unpredictable and, sometimes, downright bizarre.

Today we’re going to dive into the thrilling world of high school football! Tonight, the Kinston Vikings took to the field to face the formidable Shelby Golden Lions in the NCHSAA 2025 Championship—a showdown that had fans on the edge of their seats!

Now, let's paint the scene: the first half was nothing short of a battle, a fierce clash where the scoreboard gleamed with Shelby in the lead, 41-56. But let us zoom in on a moment that was pure magic—a dazzling display of determination from #6, the running back for the Kinston Vikings, Sumpter! This young athlete was something else tonight, folks! He was dragging defenders as though they were mere shadows, refusing to be stopped inside the 30-yard line. It’s a sight we may have witnessed before, but never like this! It defies description! Sumpter showcased hustle and heart, embodying what it means to be a competitor in this grand game.

And just when you thought the excitement couldn't escalate, enter #5 Chambers! This wide receiver soared through the air, leaping higher than the defenders who were reaching for that high-flying football. With a catch that electrified the crowd, he transformed the score from 21-35 to 27-35. A beautiful moment, indeed! But despite the valiant efforts from Kinston, Shelby’s prowess on the field proved to be too much to overcome.

As the first half drew to a close, we couldn't ignore the grit and spirit both teams displayed. The score may have ended at 41-84, in favor of the Golden Lions, but the energy and excitement of this matchup will be remembered. It’s what high school football is all about!

Alright, folks, let’s dive into the wild world of sports, especially college football! I mean, it’s been a whirlwind lately, right? You’ve got the NFL doing its thing and then college football coming in hot. It’s like a buffet of chaos where everyone’s trying to figure out which team is gonna come out on top!

So, here’s the scoop: I made a couple of entries for my picks. First, I go with the Tarheels. But guess what? For weeks 13, 14, and 15, The Tarheels were nowhere to be found on my list.

Then we had the Duke Blue Devils. Now, they were playing against Virginia in week 15, and I thought, “Hey, I’m gonna make a bold pick and go with Virginia.” I was dead wrong! Duke pulls off the win, 27-20. I mean, I can’t believe it! Sometimes it feels like I’m just throwing darts blindfolded trying to make these picks.

And I gotta be honest, some of these teams? I’m not familiar with them at all! I’m just guessing, and somehow, against all odds, I get a few right here and there.

Then I get an email saying my group, the Trojan Rams, came out as the winner! How crazy is that? This is where I would normally yell “Woo hoo!” but instead, I’m sitting here like, “How did I manage that?”

College football is a rollercoaster, and I’m just holding on for dear life! Keep those picks coming! You know you can always share your story in the comments. I’m Gail Nobles, & you’re listening to EPS.

Then we had the Duke Blue Devils. Now, they were playing against Virginia in week 15, and I thought, “Hey, I’m gonna make a bold pick and go with Virginia.” I was dead wrong! Duke pulls off the win, 27-20. I mean, I can’t believe it! Sometimes it feels like I’m just throwing darts blindfolded trying to make these picks.

And I gotta be honest, some of these teams? I’m not familiar with them at all! I’m just guessing, and somehow, against all odds, I get a few right here and there.

Then I get an email saying my group, the Trojan Rams, came out as the winner! How crazy is that? This is where I would normally yell “Woo hoo!” but instead, I’m sitting here like, “How did I manage that?”

College football is a rollercoaster, and I’m just holding on for dear life! Keep those picks coming! You know you can always share your story in the comments. I’m Gail Nobles, & you’re listening to EPS.

Welcome, sports fans, to an electrifying episode of 'Score!' I’m your host, Gail Nobles ready to take you on a whirlwind journey through the heart of the football season. Today, we're diving deep into a phenomenon that embodies the spirit of competition—the Trojan Lions!

Yes, 14 picks in the realm of football, and week 11 was nothing short of extraordinary!

And from the heart of Eastern North Carolina, a story! A personal story! The hallways I walked, the field I knew... West Craven High School! Now, let's be clear: this isn't about becoming a household name across all fifty states. It's about a local team earning a moment of national **attention.* Suddenly, the Friday night lights aren't just for the local crowd. The world is watching! And in a stunning turn, my own investigation reveals the truth: West Craven, ranked forty-four in North Carolina! A stunning 10-1 record! A perfect 6-0 in their conference! The Eagles are soaring, and the whole country can see it right from their living rooms!

Let me be clear. This is not just another high school football story. This is a matter of perspective. You have a small town. A community. And then, suddenly, its local team is thrust onto the national stage.

The question is, how? The answer is simple: the most powerful voices in sports have taken notice. *Sports Illustrated*. *MaxPreps*. They have looked at West Craven High and they have said, "This team matters."

Like I said, It's about a local team earning a moment of national **attention.* So you see, it is a very simple, yet powerful, story. A local team has become a national name. And for that community, those Friday night lights have never shined brighter.

In the specialized world of professional sports, where athletes are groomed for a single craft from childhood, it’s rare to see a star defy the boundaries. But something special is brewing, and it’s happening at the intersection of two very different games.

Meet Cherelle "Torch" George, a dazzling star for the world-famous Harlem Globetrotters. On the basketball court, she’s a maestro of showmanship and skill, dishing out no-look passes and breaking ankles with a smile that could power Times Square.

But when the final buzzer sounds on her basketball season, "Torch" doesn't cool down. She simply changes uniforms. The hardwood makes way for the gridiron as Cherelle transitions seamlessly to the flag football field.

And she isn't just participating—she's declaring her intentions. On the turf, they call her "Harlem”. Her playing style—unmistakable, powerful, and full of flair.

The statisticians will be quick to point out that she has no official football record. But to focus on the lack of metrics is to miss the point entirely. Forget the numbers. I have seen her play.. To watch Cherelle George play football is to witness a natural force. I have never seen an athlete—man or woman—move on a football field quite like her. It’s a breathtaking display of raw power and intricate skill.

Her movements are a study in controlled explosion. She doesn't merely outrun defenders; With her quick spins and smooth, physics-defying moves, she completely outsmarts her opponents. They aren't just beaten; they're left grabbing at empty air, proving how unbelievably skilled she is. It's like watching an intense and powerful dance.

So, while the record books may be silent for now, your eyes will tell you everything you need to know. Cherelle "Torch" George isn't just crossing over from one sport to another; she is converging them, creating a new spectacle entirely. She is, without a doubt, one of one. You can bet on that.

Music intro by Gail Nobles

You can see the story unfolding, can’t you? You can *feel* the drama, can't you? It's a turf war, a battle for bragging rights, a saga written in the dust and glory of the seven-a-side arena! And I, Gail Nobles, am here to break it down for you in plain, powerful terms.

First, the upstarts! From the neon glow of Las Vegas, the Insomniacs lived up to their name—they refused to let the league rest! Back-to-back champions! In 2023, they outgunned the Tampa Nightcrawlers, 50-46! A fireworks display!

And again in 2024! A nail-biter, a heart-pounder, a 31-30 thriller over the mighty Trenton BIC! Their star, the spectacularly named Eric "Munchie" Shufford Jr., devoured the competition! The question was everywhere: Was a new, unbreakable dynasty being forged in the desert heat?

But then, the old guard answered! Oh, did they answer! In 2025, Trenton BIC, smarting from that narrow defeat, came back with a vengeance! They didn't just beat the Insomniacs; they delivered a 53-39 statement! A thunderclap from the East Coast!

So, what's the final score? The Insomniacs are for real. A powerhouse. A team that knows how to win.

But in the ultimate tally, the history books, the cold, hard truth of the trophy case, the story changes. With this latest win, the Trenton BIC now have *three* championships. And they share that mountain peak of three with another titan, Paterson U.

The bottom line is undeniable! The Las Vegas Insomniacs are the flashy new kings on the block. But the true royalty of the A7FL, the teams with the most jewels in their crown, are still Trenton BIC and Paterson U. The throne was challenged, but the empire, for now, remains with the established order. A magnificent, breathtaking spectacle

Let’s not forget his commitment to BYU, a decision that has not only elevated his own profile but is expected to take the Cougars’ season to unprecedented heights.

Good evening, sports fans! We're going to talk the history of the matchup between the Carolina Panthers and the New York Jets. It's a tale of some hard-fought games, with the Panthers holding a slight edge overall.

In the all-time series, the Carolina Panthers have won 5 games while losing 3 to the Jets. That means they've come out on top more often than not since these teams started facing off.

When the Panthers play at home in Carolina, they've been tough to beat. They've racked up 4 wins out of 5 games against the Jets right in their own stadium.

But on the road in New York, it's a different story. The Panthers have struggled, managing just 1 win in 3 tries.

That's the breakdown so far in this NFL rivalry – the Panthers have the upper hand, but the Jets have shown they can compete.”

Tampa Bay Buccaneers

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are riding high as the undisputed leaders of the NFC South division following their impressive 5-1 victory over the San Francisco 49ers in Week 6 action. With quarterback Baker Mayfield leading the charge, the Bucs' balanced offense and stout defense propelled them to a convincing win, solidifying their position at the top of the standings.

Currently boasting a 5-1 record, the Buccaneers have established themselves as early frontrunners in the NFC South. Trailing closely behind in second place within the division are the Carolina Panthers, who have shown flashes of potential but are still searching for consistency. Adding to the Panthers' narrative, they hold the No. 2 spot in the overall NFC power rankings, evidence to their competitive edge league-wide despite their divisional challenges.

The rivalry between these two NFC South foes has been nothing short of intense over the years. In their head-to-head history, the Buccaneers and Panthers have clashed 49 times, with the Panthers holding a slight edge, having secured 25 victories to Tampa Bay's 24. This near-even split underscores the fierce competition that defines their matchups, often featuring high-stakes plays and divisional bragging rights.

Looking ahead, the Buccaneers face a tough test as they prepare to host the Detroit Lions in their next outing. The Lions, coming off a strong season, will look to knock the Bucs off their perch and make a statement in the NFC. Meanwhile, the Carolina Panthers will hit the road to take on the New York Jets, a game that could serve as a pivotal opportunity for Carolina to build momentum and close the gap in the NFC South.

As the season heats up, fans in the NFC South are bracing for more drama. Will the Buccaneers maintain their dominance, or can the Panthers leverage their ranking to flip the script? Stay tuned for what promises to be an exhilarating stretch of football.

Until next time, this is Gail Nobles podcasting off.

In a remarkable turn of events, I experienced a vision on the evening of October 11, 2025, where I saw a Carolina Panther football player alone on the field, surrounded by silence and no crowd. Although I couldn’t identify the player or see his jersey number, a small voice in my mind whispered that the Panthers would come out on top in their upcoming game.

Despite my vision, I watched the matchup against the Dallas Cowboys without any expectations. As the game progressed and the teams went back and forth, it was clear that it was going to be a close finish. With the score tied, I felt a mix of anticipation and uncertainty—wondering if we would see a Panther victory or head into overtime.

In an exciting conclusion, the Panthers secured their victory, winning 30-27. Bryce Young dazzled fans with three touchdown passes, and Rico Dowdle showcased his skills, racking up over 200 all-purpose yards. The dramatic finale came as kicker Ryan Fitzgerald nailed a 31-yard field goal as time expired, confirming that my mysterious vision had indeed come true.

Welcome to EPS. Good evening, sports fans! In a promising development for the Carolina Panthers, the 2025 season is shaping up to be one filled with potential, particularly when considering their strength of schedule. According to sharp analysis from Sharp Football and ESPN, the Panthers have been handed one of the easier paths in the NFL.

The Panthers have the 7th easiest schedule based on projected win totals. They also tie for the 5th easiest when looking at their opponents' win percentages in 2024. This gives them a good chance to improve their league standing. Their favorable ranking comes from finishing third in the NFC South, which means they will face weaker competition from other divisions.

The numbers are clear: by finishing third in their division. the Panthers avoid the strongest teams in the NFL. Instead, they will face opponents that are expected to struggle. This gives Carolina a chance to take advantage of an easier schedule. It’s a big opportunity for the Panthers to increase their wins. With some luck and good performances, they might even aim for a wild card playoff spot.

Head Coach Dave Canales and the team will be looking to seize this unique chance to make strides back into playoff contention. With a roster that's steadily developing and some key additions on the horizon, the upcoming season might just be the turning point the franchise has been searching for.

So, mark your calendars? The road ahead appears encouraging, and it's time to rally behind a squad that could very well leverage this easier schedule into a successful 2025 season! I’m Gail. Nobles. Stay tuned for more updates as we get closer to kickoff!

Good evening, everyone. I’m Gail Nobles, and tonight we’re stepping onto the blacktop of Oakland, California, where the echoes of basketballs bounce off the pavement and the spirit of competition fills the air. It’s here that we meet a local legend whose prowess on the court has extended far beyond the neighborhood: Demetrius “Hook” Mitchell.

In the late 1980s, the San Francisco Bay Area was a hotbed of talent, a crucible where streetball forged legends. And at the center of that fire was Hook, a player who captivated audiences with his incredible hops and his signature 360-degree dunks that would leave crowds gasping in awe. Imagine for a moment—a player who, standing at just 5-feet-10, could elevate so high that he reportedly dunked right over a late model Honda Accord. Yes, you heard that right—a car! Now that’s not just basketball, that’s pure artistry in motion.

Demetrius’s talent didn’t go unnoticed.  But despite that undeniable talent, the road to the NBA was long and winding. For every moment of glory on the playground, every backboard-shattering alley-oop, there were challenges and setbacks that kept this local hero from reaching the professional ranks.

Through the lens of the documentary *Hooked: The Legend of Demetrius "Hook" Mitchell*, released in 2003, we are invited to delve into the life of a player who found his passion long before he reached towering heights—literally. Hook tells us he’s been “playing above the rim” since the young age of 5-foot-3, but it wasn’t until he hit 5-foot-5 that he finally took flight in organized games. It’s a testament to perseverance, a reminder that some of the best stories in sports aren’t just about trophies and fame, but about the heart and the hustle that drive us.

Good evening! We’ve got a fantastic story in the world of basketball—Lance Stephenson! Yes, that's right, the same Lance Stephenson who's just clinched the title of Fourth Man of the Year in the BIG3 league. It's a comeback that’s nothing short of extraordinary!

This talented player first burst onto the scene at Lincoln High School in Brooklyn, a hotbed for basketball stars. He was named Mr. New York Basketball, showcasing not just skill but a vibrant personality. Remember his spotlight moment in the 2009 McDonald's All-American Game? That stage was brighter than Times Square!

Lance moved on to play college basketball for the Cincinnati Bearcats, where he showed relentless drive and a distinctive style that caught everyone's attention. In 2010, the Indiana Pacers picked him in the second round of the NBA Draft, and what a choice it was! His quick drives to the basket and those jaw-dropping no-look passes became must-see TV!

But, his story doesn’t end there! In the BIG3 league—where seasoned pros compete—Lance is making waves. He’s not just playing; he’s making a name for himself with his unpredictable play and entertaining celebrations, earning him the Fourth Man of the Year title. His celebrations are almost as exciting as the game itself!

Lance’s journey is more than just numbers; it’s a story of determination, passion, and a bit of flair. So here’s to Lance Stephenson—the Fourth Man of the Year, a player who continues to thrill and inspire, showing us that the game is still very much alive!

Story by Gail Nobles

Good evening, I'm Gail Nobles. Tonight, we turn our attention to a beloved local institution that holds a special place in the hearts of basketball enthusiasts throughout Northern California—the Twilite outdoor basketball league, founded by the legendary Charlie Reid at Shields Park in North Richmond.

Imagine a warm summer evening, the golden rays of the sun beginning to set, casting a warm glow on the basketball court. The rhythmic bounce of basketballs and the cheers of spectators create an atmosphere that electrifies the air. This was the spirit of the Twilite league, where the best and brightest high school and college players from across the Bay Area gathered to showcase their skills, build friendships, and chase their dreams under that expansive, open sky.

Charlie Reid, known as the heartbeat of the park, was more than just a playground director; he was a mentor and a visionary. His commitment to youth development extended beyond basketball—it embraced life lessons, teamwork, and community. In recognition of his immense contributions, Shields Park was later renamed Shields-Reid Park, a fitting tribute to a man who dedicated so much of himself to the young players who flourished there.

I don’t have a start date for the league. I'm gazing at a photograph of them, with a note indicating it was taken around 1950—though that's just an estimate. The Twilite league was a gathering place for the passionate and the aspiring, a place where talent was nurtured, and futures were forged.

As we reflect on Charlie Reid’s impact and the legacy of the Twilite league, we can't help but hope for a revival of this cherished tradition. Imagine once again feeling that excitement as young athletes demonstrate their skills under the stars, with the community rallying together in support and celebration. A reinstatement of this league could rekindle not just the love for the game but the spirit of friendship and unity that it once inspired.

As we look to the future, let’s remember the bright moments that took place at Shields Park and honor the vision of Charlie Reid—a visionary who believed in the power of sport to transform lives. Perhaps, with enough support and enthusiasm, we could once again witness the magic of Twilite basketball lighting up those summer nights in North Richmond.

Good afternoon, and isn't it inspiring to witness someone truly excel? Speaking of inspiration, have you heard of Cherelle George? Now, you might not recognize the name right away, but trust me, you’ll remember “Torch.” That's her nickname, and it's certainly fitting.

Cherelle George isn't just any basketball player. She’s a Harlem Globetrotter, one of those captivating athletes who bring joy and wonder to audiences around the world. But she's also so much more. She is the *first* female player to hold a Guinness World Record. Think about that! This remarkable woman holds the record for most basketball under-the-leg tumbles in a minute – a staggering 32 tumbles!

But the world record is just the cherry on top of a truly impressive career. Before joining the Globetrotters, Cherelle was a decorated player at Iowa Western Community College and Purdue University. At Purdue, she earned the Big Ten Sixth Player of the Year award, demonstrating her talent and dedication on the court. She even received an invitation to a WNBA tryout with the Indiana Fever.

The best part about her impact is that it seems to be contagious. You've seen her play, you've seen her dazzling moves, and you felt that spark of motivation ignite inside you, right?

That's the power of someone like Cherelle George. She not only entertains and amazes, but she reminds us that with dedication and passion, we can achieve incredible things. She’s a role model, an athlete, and proof of the joy of pursuing your dreams, whether it's setting a world record or simply picking up a basketball again. Cherelle "Torch" George is certainly someone to watch. And perhaps, she will inspire you to find your "torch" and ignite your own passion.

Good afternoon, and isn't it inspiring to witness someone truly excel? Speaking of inspiration, have you heard of Cherelle George? Now, you might not recognize the name right away, but trust me, you’ll remember “Torch.” That's her nickname, and it's certainly fitting.

Cherelle George isn't just any basketball player. She’s a Harlem Globetrotter, one of those captivating athletes who bring joy and wonder to audiences around the world. But she's also so much more. She is the *first* female player to hold a Guinness World Record. Think about that! This remarkable woman holds the record for most basketball under-the-leg tumbles in a minute – a staggering 32 tumbles!

But the world record is just the cherry on top of a truly impressive career. Before joining the Globetrotters, Cherelle was a decorated player at Iowa Western Community College and Purdue University.

Flight to the Big3

We’re talking about a fella who came into the league with more hype than a championship parade, a man they called "Superman," Dwight Howard!

This guy, no college, straight outta Southwest Atlanta Christian Academy, boom! First overall pick in the 2004 draft by the Orlando Magic. And listen, he wasn't just a pretty face with a cape. Eight-time All-Star? Check! Eight-time All-NBA? You bet! Five-time All-Defensive Team? Absolutely! And get this, THREE-TIME Defensive Player of the Year! Three! This wasn't just flash and dunkin', this was some serious defensive dominance.

He took that Orlando Magic team, a team that frankly wouldn't have known the Finals if they saw it, all the way to the 2009 NBA Finals! Remember that? The Magic! All thanks to the big fella in the middle.

Now, the man's been around, hasn't he? Orlando, Lakers, Houston, Atlanta, Charlotte, Washington, Philly... like a travelling salesman peddling rebounds and blocked shots!  He even came back to the Lakers, finally got that elusive NBA Championship in 2020! You gotta hand it to him, the man's stayed in the game.

What made him special? Athleticism, pure and simple! Leaping, rebounding, swatting shots into the cheap seats! He wasn't always the smoothest offensive player, but you knew you were gonna get a hard-nosed effort, especially on the defensive end.

And now, after a long and winding NBA road, he's hanging up the *indoor* sneakers, at least on the big stage. 2025, he's taking his talents to the BIG3, joining the Los Angeles Riot. A final chapter for "Superman," playing that 3-on-3 game. Interesting, very interesting indeed. We'll see if Dwight Howard can still fly high on that half-court!

This is EPS. I’m your host, Gail Nobles.

Story by: Gail Nobles © 2025
Illustration by: Gail Nobles

Detroit, MI -The roar wasn't for a home run. It wasn't for a stolen base. It was for *her.*Ziane "Iron Lily" Richardson, a name whispered in hushed tones from Side Mount City, has arrived in Detroit and taken her place on the Detroit Steels, a team desperately trying to claw its way back from the bottom.

The Steels, a once proud franchise, are now more rust than steel. Their bats are silent, their gloves are leaky, and their hope… well, their hope is a flickering candle in a gale-force wind.

But Ziane, a whirlwind of grit and determination, represents something more than just a player. She is the *seed* planted in barren soil, a symbol of unwavering belief. Her arrival has ignited a fire in the bellies of her teammates. The tired eyes that once stared blankly out at the field now gleam with a renewed intensity.

“She’s different,” whispers catcher, “Rusty Racheal”, her voice gravelly with years of playing behind the plate and sometimes would practice catch with Ziane. “She makes you want to *run*. Not just to first base, but to *home*. To something better.”

The metaphor is clear: the Steels are a team lost in the wilderness, desperately seeking their way back to prosperity, to glory, to *home*. And Ziane, with her unwavering spirit and her fierce determination, is the guide.

But the journey will be fraught with peril. The opposing teams, hardened by years of victory, represent the obstacles that life throws in our path – doubt, despair, and the ever-present fear of failure.

Will Ziane be enough to ignite the entire team? Can she overcome the years of disappointment? The answer remains to be seen. But one thing is certain: the Steels, fueled by her presence, are *hoofing it* to home plate. They are running, they are striving, and they are believing. And in baseball, as in life, that’s half the battle. The rest… well, that’s for the gods of the diamond to decide. But for now, hope blooms in Detroit.

This is a news report from The Morning Riselines.

Hey everyone, it's Gail Nobles talking about the A7FL. Something amazing happened that we'll always remember! Dekyri Mims from Patterson U... DEKYRI MIMS, I'm telling you... has made an incredible play!

Forty-two yards, the ball flew way up in the air, thanks to the quarterback's strong arm. And then... and THEN... this Mims guy, who's super talented... he CAUGHT IT!

But not just any catch, no way! This was a behind-the-back grab! It was so crazy and unbelievable, it's almost like it broke the rules of what's possible!

Now, I hear people saying, "Gail, it's not the NFL! We've seen good plays before!" And I say... NO! I know the NFL has had awesome moments, but this catch was so UNLIKELY that we have to talk about it!

It wasn't just luck! No! It was like a beautiful dance of athleticism. Mims, for a second, was more than just a person! He BECAME the ball! He KNEW where it was going! He was totally focused and connected to it!

He was so CONFIDENT, so BOLD! He didn't even LOOK at the ball! He trusted himself and knew where it was. That's how legends are made!

I don't know if everyone will remember this catch forever, or if it will be on TV all the time. But I know that I, Gail Nobles, just saw something amazing! Something that reminds us why we love sports: for those moments that are just pure, awesome, and magical!

And to Dekyri Mims, I say: good job! You'll be remembered in the A7FL... and maybe even as one of the most unbelievable plays ever!

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the electrifying world of women's boxing, where the gloves are laced with legacy, and the ring echoes with the determination of countless trailblazers! Today, we stand atop a mountain forged by the fists of legends like Christy Martin, Laila Ali, and Ann Wolfe. These extraordinary women have not only shaped the sport but have inspired generations with their tenacity, grace, and indomitable spirit.

Let’s turn our attention to the present, where the phenomenal Claressa Shields reigns supreme! The woman who shatters records with a mere flick of her gloves. Shields, a dual-sport powerhouse, is not just another athlete; she’s a phenomenon — a 21st-century gladiator commanding respect across boxing and mixed martial arts alike. She holds a remarkable collection of titles that would make even the most seasoned champions envious: the undisputed female light middleweight title, the exclusive rights to all four major world belts in multiple weight classes, and the title of the first American boxer — male or female — to clinch consecutive Olympic medals! Talk about rewriting the annals of boxing history!

But let’s not forget the reverberations in the boxing community! As women's boxing continues to ascend to unprecedented heights in popularity, the tantalizing prospect of a showdown between legends becomes the talk of the town. Laila Ali—the name evokes a reverence that’s undeniable in the sport—has remained a haunting specter for many. How the fans yearned for her fabled clash with the fierce Ann Wolfe! But in this modern era, the speculation is swirling around a potential fight between Laila Ali and Claressa Shields. Picture it: two titans of their generations colliding in the ring! Shields, with fire in her eyes, has called her out, leaving fans on the edge of their seats.

Laila Ali, the embodiment of excellence in the sport, has retired from the ring, yet her legacy remains in women's boxing. Many see her as the pinnacle, the very best, a benchmark for all aspiring fighters. As Shields acknowledges this, it raises the tantalizing question of whether we will witness the ultimate meeting of past and present, a true testament to the spirit of competition that defines boxing itself.

In the grand theater of the squared circle, it’s clear that women’s boxing isn’t merely on the rise; it’s soaring, gaining momentum, stretching the bounds of what is possible.
So there you have it, folks! The latest buzz from the world of women's boxing! Who knows what the future holds? But one thing's for certain — the journey will be primed with unparalleled excitement!

Let me take you on a journey through the fascinating and often awe-inspiring world of the one-handed catch in football. Now, traditionally, we associate these gravity-defying feats with the grandeur of the NFL, where the brightest stars shine under the bright lights, and the expectations are as high as the sky. But oh, what’s this I see, the A7FL, a league that’s undoubtedly capturing our attention in remarkable ways!

Yes, indeed, we’re witnessing something spectacular with players like Tyrell D. Addison Jr., known to his fans as "Cruel-T," who made waves with the acrobatic grab for the Baltimore SOA. Folks, when you see a one-hand catch executed with such elegance and precision, it transcends the ordinary and becomes a work of art. It’s almost as if he’s defying gravity itself! You see the ball suspended in time, as he reaches out with that single hand, plucking it from the air—sensational!

And we cannot overlook those highlights from the Paterson U team. It seems that the spirit of the one-handed catch is spreading like wildfire. If I’m not mistaken Hass Dubois #8 made a one handed catch. These athletes, whether in the A7FL or the NFL, are redefining the boundaries of what we thought possible on that gridiron. A simple catch? Nay! These are moments etched in time, electrifying fans and igniting the passion of the sport.

In a league that prides itself on innovation and creativity, the A7FL is showcasing a new generation of talent that refuses to be constrained by tradition. When you witness a one-handed catch, you’re not just watching a play; you’re watching the embodiment of athleticism. You’re witnessing raw talent mixed with immense determination. This is the beauty of football!

So as we savor these moments, let us celebrate these remarkable athletes who are not merely catching a football but are crafting highlights that will endure. This is the essence of sport, the pursuit of greatness, and the magic of the one-handed catch in all its glory!

You’ve heard of Ja Morant. player for the Memphis Grizzlies of the National Basketball Association (NBA)? I call him Ja Morant “Magician”. I call him Magician because the name captures his playmaking skills and ability to make impressive passes. He makes things happen. The name Magician  highlights his proficiency in setting up his teammates for easy baskets. He can create plays out of nothing. The name emphasizes his magical passing ability.

Ja Morant—the spark plug for the Memphis Grizzlies in the NBA! He conjures up extraordinary plays with a flick of his wrist!

You see, Ja doesn't just play basketball; he performs! He dances around defenders, leaving them bewildered and gasping, like they're caught up in a spell. His passing is nothing short of wizardry! With a mere flick, he sets up his teammates for those slam dunk moments that makes the crowd cheer. It’s like he’s pulling rabbits out of hats—who knew a basketball could have such a magical twist?

And let's talk about his ability to create plays out of thin air! It’s as if he has a crystal ball, predicting where his teammates will be and delivering the ball right on time, right in their sweet spots. He turns ordinary basketball moments into extraordinary highlights. The name Magician captures it all perfectly—it's not just about scoring; it's about making the game come alive for everyone around him.

So, remember the name Ja Morant, and when you see him weaving his magic on the court, know that you're witnessing something truly special. The future of basketball is bright with this Magician leading the way!

Ladies and gentlemen, gather around and allow me to entertain you with the news of last night’s Super Bowl extravaganza, a clash of titans that saw the Philadelphia Eagles soar to unprecedented heights against the formidable Kansas City Chiefs! Oh, what a spectacle it was, a veritable feast for the senses that unfolded under the bright lights of the grandest stage in football!

The curtains may have only been drawn on the first quarter, but take note, fans, for it was Jaylen Hurts, that indomitable force of nature, who opened the scoring with an early touchdown that etched the Eagles' name on the scoreboard! With the score finely poised at 7-0 dawning upon us, it was clear that the crowd was buzzing, their hopes soaring sky-high as our story began to unfold.

But wait! The second quarter roared to life as Cooper DeJean, a name you’ll not soon forget, carved through the Chiefs’ defense like a hot knife through butter, propelling the Eagles to a staggering 16-0 lead. The cadence of the game, the ebb and flow of strategy, danced on the edge of triumph, and by the 2nd quarter, it was 17-0—a testament to the Eagles' resilience and composure!

As we rolled into the third quarter, AJ Brown stepped onto the stage, and my oh my, what a performance it was! And suddenly, the score ballooned to 23-0. But in a jaw-dropping series of events that would make the most seasoned of fans jump out of their seats, Devonte Smith joined the revelry with yet another touchdown that brought the Eagles to an astonishing 33-0!
At this juncture, my friends, you could practically hear the collective gasp of disbelief reverberating through the stadium! The Chiefs, while proud and valiant, were finding it exceedingly difficult to rise to the occasion.

As the clock ticked away and the dust settled on this grand encounter, the Eagles emerged victorious with a score of 40-22. In the grand tapestry of football history, this performance will surely be woven as a defining moment. The Eagles, ladies and gentlemen, not just champions of the game, but poets on the field, crafting a narrative of brilliance that will be spoken of for ages to come! So there you have it, a resounding celebration of athletic prowess, strategy, and the timeless love affair between football and its fans!

Ladies and gentlemen, gather around and allow me to entertain you with the news of last night’s Super Bowl extravaganza, a clash of titans that saw the Philadelphia Eagles soar to unprecedented heights against the formidable Kansas City Chiefs! Oh, what a spectacle it was, a veritable feast for the senses that unfolded under the bright lights of the grandest stage in football!

Today we’re going to talk about the extraordinary career of the one and only Bo Jackson! Now, let’s be clear: this man was not just your run-of-the-mill athlete. No, sir! Bo was a phenomenon, a force of nature, a two-sport superstar who made headlines in both baseball and football.

In baseball, Bo had a knack for leaving those poor bats in splinters! Striking out? No problem! He’d snap a bat over his knee like it was a mere twig. Groundout? How about a little theatrics—one bat shattered over his head! It was a sight to behold, and the sheer strength he displayed was a testament to his incredible athleticism.

Let’s shift gears to the football field, where Bo put on another spectacular show. He was known for his blazing speed, clocking in at a jaw-dropping 4.13 seconds for the 40-yard dash. And let me tell you,, that’s faster than a cheetah chasing down its dinner! This man
 didn’t just play football; he dominated it. He dazzled the college ranks, winning the coveted Heisman Trophy, symbolizing the best in college football.

But, oh, what a twist of fate! A devastating hip injury cut short his NFL journey, leaving fans and analysts alike pondering, "What if?" What if Bo could have played a full career? The mind races with possibilities. It’s a true sports tragedy, because when you talk about the most naturally gifted athletes in history, Bo Jackson's name is right there at the top of the list, shining bright like a diamond.

Whether he was smashing bats or blazing down the field, Bo Jackson represented the pinnacle of athletic prowess. A dual-threat, a legend, and an icon of sport—a hallmark of greatness that, sadly, we can only imagine if it had continued.

Hello! I'm Gail Nobles. Welcome to EPS! 

Let me bring your attention to a towering figure in the world of basketball—the one and only Anthony Davis. Yes, we've seen giants walk the hardwood before—names like Wilt Chamberlain and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar have graced the iconic Los Angeles Lakers. What do they all share, you ask? They stood tall, both physically and in the Los Angeles World of basketball greatness.

Now, let's put this in perspective. Chamberlain, in his time as a Laker from 1968 to 1973, made a jaw-dropping 17,783 points, becoming a crucial piece of the Lakers’ success. Then we had the great Kareem, the skyhook magician, lighting it up with a staggering 24,176 points from 1975 to 1989 with the purple and gold. Both of these legends shaped their eras, and they did so from the lofty heights that only a few can claim.

Enter Anthony Davis, a man who was acquired by the Lakers in July 2019. The trade was no small affair, mind you. The Pelicans sent Davis packing, trading him for a bundle that included Lonzo Ball, Brandon Ingram, and three first-round picks. It was a transaction that set the stage for a new chapter in Lakers history.

Davis made his much-anticipated debut on October 22, 2019, putting the league on notice with 25 points, 10 rebounds, and 5 assists, though it was a loss to the archrival Clippers. However, it wasn’t long before he started rewriting the record books. Just a week later, on October 29, Davis became the first Laker to post a 40-point, 20-rebound game since the great Shaquille O'Neal did it back in 2003. But hold your horses—he did it in just 30 minutes! That’s right—30 minutes to make history!

But wait, there’s more! In that electrifying performance, he set the NBA record for free throws in a quarter with 18, matching those numbers in a half and even setting the game record at 26. That’s making a statement, folks!

From 2019 to 2025, Anthony Davis has dazzled fans with his variety and skill, racking up a considerable 7,739 points in that time. While some may see that number and think it doesn't stack up against Wilt or Kareem, let me remind you—he's still writing his story.
Then came February 2, 2025—an earth-shattering trade to the Dallas Mavericks, where he joined forces with the incomparable Luka Dončić. Two reigning All-NBA players exchanged midseason? You bet your sneakers, folks! This was a monumental deal that shook the very foundation of the league.

So there you have it—a brief glimpse into the career of Anthony Davis—an athlete who stands tall among the greats and continues to carve his own legacy with every jump shot, rebound, and blocked shot. In the world of basketball, height isn’t just about inches—it’s about impact, and I’d say Davis is definitely making his mark!

 Story by: Gail Nobles

Anson “Ace” Carter—an enigma wrapped in a hockey jersey and a dynamic talent who danced across the ice from 1996 to 2007. A right winger by trade, Ace donned the colors of not one, not two, but eight different teams in the illustrious National Hockey League—yes, indeed, the NHL!

Now let’s highlight the highlights: this Canadian whiz played pivotal roles with powerhouses such as the Boston Bruins, the Edmonton Oilers, and the Vancouver Canucks. Picture it! The roaring crowds, the thrill of the game, and Ace forging his path through the ranks, leaving defenders in his wake as he aimed for the net. After hanging up his skates, one might think he’d fade into the shadows. Not a chance! This man pivoted deftly into a new arena, trading slap shots for sharp analysis as he joined the ranks of NBC Sports. Today, you can find him dazzling audiences as an analyst on NHL on TNT and MSG Network, sharing insights with that ever-so-charismatic flair we’ve come to expect from him.

But wait, there’s more! Ace is not just a hockey aficionado; oh no, my friends! He’s ventured into the pulsating world of hip hop as the founder of Big Up Entertainment, a record label where he passionately nurtures emerging artists. It’s a fascinating juxtaposition—a man who skated on ice now navigating the vibrant landscape of music.

So, whether he’s dissecting game strategies or promoting the next big rap sensation, Anson “Ace” Carter is a multifaceted spectacle, proving that once a competitor, always a competitor—in sports, in music, and in life. Keep your eyes on this man, folks, because Ace is here to stay!

Allow me to take you on a journey through the world of basketball, where we find the remarkable George Gervin—better known by his legendary moniker, “the Iceman.” Gervin is known for the finger roll and using all of the backboard. Born on April 27, 1952, Gervin graced the courts of both the American Basketball Association (ABA) and the National Basketball Association (NBA), leaving a legacy as smooth as his jump shot.

Let’s talk numbers. This exceptional talent averaged at least 14 points per game over a stellar 14-season career. That’s consistency! By the time his days on the hardwood came to a close, he boasted an astonishing average of 26.2 points per game. We’re talking about a scoring machine!

His impact on the game didn't go unnoticed. In 1996, he was honored as one of the 50 Greatest Players in NBA History, and just a few years ago, in 2021, Gervin joined the elite ranks again as one of the 75 greatest players in history. Now that, my audience, is a testament to his talent and enduring legacy!

So let’s raise a glass to George Gervin, the Iceman, whose artistry on the court not only dazzled fans but reshaped the shooting guard position. A true icon of the game!

STREETBALL

Richard “Pee Wee” Kirkland, a streetball legend with a story as dynamic as his game!
Born on May 6, 1945, in the heart of Manhattan, Pee Wee rose from the concrete playgrounds to make a mark in the world of basketball. High school hoops? No problem! At Charles Evans Hughes High School, our man Kirkland was lighting it up as an All-City guard. Let’s give it up for those skills!

With a fierce determination and undeniable talent, Pee Wee earned a scholarship to Kittrell College down in North Carolina. And did he deliver? You bet! Averaging a jaw-dropping 41 points per game, he was a scoring machine!

Then it was on to Norfolk State University, where he teamed up with none other than future NBA star Bob Dandridge. Together, they propelled the Spartans to a spectacular CIAA championship in 1968. With a record of 25-2, they were a force to be reckoned with, though they faced a tough exit in the second round of the NCAA Division II Men's Tournament. But Kirkland didn’t let that stop him!

Now fast forward to 1969. The Chicago Bulls came knocking, drafting him with the fourth pick of the thirteenth round! A life-changing opportunity, right? Well, folks, it seems Pee Wee had other plans—rumor has it he turned down the NBA gig because he was raking in more cash through his hustle in the streets. Talk about choosing your own path!

But Kirkland didn’t just leave the game behind; he transformed it! He created the "School of Skillz," a phenomenal basketball and life skills campaign in partnership with Nike! What started as Saturday camps in Harlem has ballooned into a nationwide movement, inspiring the next generation with skills both on and off the court!

As a high school coach at The Dwight School on the Upper West Side, he clinched championships and made waves—even mentoring youth like Hanif "Camel" Warren. Pee Wee uses his phenomenal street cred and basketball prowess to connect with at-risk youth, helping them navigate their paths and reshape their ideas about what it means to “keep it real!"

Pee Wee Kirkland is more than a name in the game. Make sure to keep an eye on this legend as he continues to spread his message across the nation—on and off the court!
Stay tuned, because this is one incredible story that keeps unfolding, right here in the heart of basketball culture!

Let’s talk about a true star of the hockey world: Ryan Reaves! Born on January 20, 1987, up in Canada, this guy has made quite a name for himself in the National Hockey League. He’s known not just for his size and strength, but also for his big heart.

Let’s take a look at the teams lucky enough to have had Reaves on their roster. First, we had the tough St. Louis Blues; then he brought his toughness to the fast-paced Pittsburgh Penguins. Next came the exciting Vegas Golden Knights, where he really made a statement. And how could we forget the New York Rangers? A team steeped in rich hockey history where Reaves quickly became a fan favorite—a true representation of the game’s spirited nature!

Now, we turn to his latest adventure with the Toronto Maple Leafs. Ah, yes! This is a franchise that has seen its ups and downs, and with Reaves joining the squad, he’s added that much-needed grit and enthusiasm. Think of him as that perfect spice that makes the dish more exciting. He's there to help the Leafs chase after that coveted Stanley Cup!

And let’s not ignore his impressive family background! Ryan is the son of Willard Reaves, who played in both the CFL and NFL. This athletic heritage is something Ryan wears with pride. He’s not just a hockey player; he’s got that competitive spirit running in his veins!

Ryan Reaves is more than just a player; he’s a standout! His mix of toughness and skill allows him to be both an enforcer and a skilled athlete on the ice. He’s a true team player, always bringing his teammates together and energizing the crowd with his unshakeable spirit.

So as we follow Ryan Reaves’ exciting journey, remember this: he’s not just playing for the Maple Leafs; he’s everything we love about hockey. His incredible strength is impressive, but it’s his love for the game that truly shines. That is what makes him a real hockey player in today’s NHL!

A team steeped in rich hockey history where Reaves quickly became a fan favorite—a true representation of the game’s spirited nature!

Now, we turn to his latest adventure with the Toronto Maple Leafs. Ah, yes! This is a franchise that has seen its ups and downs, and with Reaves joining the squad, he’s added that much-needed grit and enthusiasm. Think of him as that perfect spice that makes the dish more exciting. He's there to help the Leafs chase after that coveted Stanley Cup!

And let’s not ignore his impressive family background! Ryan is the son of Willard Reaves, who played in both the CFL and NFL. This athletic heritage is something Ryan wears with pride. He’s not just a hockey player; he’s got that competitive spirit running in his veins!

Ryan Reaves is more than just a player; he’s a standout! His mix of toughness and skill allows him to be both an enforcer and a skilled athlete on the ice. He’s a true team player, always bringing his teammates together and energizing the crowd with his unshakeable spirit.

So as we follow Ryan Reaves’ exciting journey, remember this: he’s not just playing for the Maple Leafs; he’s everything we love about hockey. His incredible strength is impressive, but it’s his love for the game that truly shines. That is what makes him a real hockey player in today’s NHL!

Tracy McGrady and Vince Carter are both retired NBA stars. Their recent partnership in joining the ownership group of the Buffalo Bills marks an exciting chapter in their careers beyond the basketball court.

As cousins, their bond has been highlighted over the years, and both have had successful careers that have made them household names. McGrady, a seven-time NBA All-Star and two-time scoring champion, is known for his scoring ability, versatility, and innovative play style. Carter, a highlight-reel legend and eight-time NBA All-Star, is celebrated for his aerial acrobatics and longevity in the league.

Their decision to become involved with the Buffalo Bills is noteworthy for several reasons. First, it reflects a growing trend among former athletes seeking to diversify their portfolios and invest in professional sports franchises. In recent years, several former athletes have transitioned from being players to becoming owners or executives, demonstrating a desire to have a lasting impact on sports beyond merely competing.

The Buffalo Bills, a franchise with a passionate fan base, has enjoyed a resurgence in recent seasons, making significant progress in the NFL under head coach Sean McDermott and quarterback Josh Allen. Having McGrady and Carter as part of the ownership group could bring new energy and perspective to the team, potentially tapping into their experiences in high-stakes environments and their understanding of sports culture.

Story by: Gail Nobles

You know, it’s funny how people react when they see two fighters step into the ring, one a seasoned old lion and the other a brash young cub. Like some folks are squawking about how a 58-year-old Mike Tyson should never have been allowed to face off against a 27-year-old Jake Paul. Well, let me tell you, it seems to me that if Mike Tyson wants to lace up the gloves and step into the ring, who are we to rain on his parade?

Now, don’t get me wrong. I understand the concerns. Tyson has had his share of ups and downs, both in and out of the ring. But here’s a guy who’s been punching since before many of us could even tie our shoes. A former heavyweight champion, a man who once struck fear into the hearts of opponents. Is he past his prime? Sure, but have we ever met a fighter who really retires? They say you can’t take the fight out of the man, and in Tyson’s case, the spirit is still alive and well.

Sure, the naysayers will point to his age and say it was irresponsible for the fight to even happen. They cluck like chickens about him getting hurt or embarrassed. What they don’t seem to get is that Tyson is an able-bodied man making his own choices. He wanted to fight, and he did. End of story. It’s a bit like telling an artist they shouldn’t paint anymore because they’ve been doing it for decades. If the brush is still in hand, let them create.

Now, Tyson did end up losing the match against Jake Paul, and I can hear the chorus of critics already. “It was a terrible thing for Mike Tyson to fight,” they say. But who measures what’s terrible? If Tyson looked in the mirror, saw a fighter staring back, and thought he could go for it, then he should have the right to do so. It’s not like he was dragged to the ring against his will. He signed up for it. He trained. He stepped into that squared circle and took his chances.

In the end, isn’t that what sport is all about? Taking risks, rolling the dice, and letting life unfold. So maybe Tyson lost, but in the grand scheme of life, it was his fight to have—literally and figuratively. And you know what? For that, we ought to give the man a little credit for still having that fire in his belly at 58. Just because he lost doesn’t mean he didn’t win in other ways—like showing that the spirit of a fighter never really retires.

When we speak of the A7FL, we’re not merely referencing a league; we’re addressing a bold manifesto! A veritable lion who boldly holds a cross in the realm of football, defying the conventions dictated by the hulking pads and glossy helmets of yesterday. Oh, what a sight it is, my friends! Players dive, dodge, and run with a raw, unadulterated ferocity.

You know, I’ve been watching football for years, and every time I see those players coming onto the field in their shiny helmets, I can’t help but wonder—should the NFL take a page out of the A7FL’s book and ditch the helmets altogether?

First of all, helmets were supposed to protect players from concussions and head injuries, right? But with the way the game is played today, it seems like those helmets are more like weapons than anything else. Players are throwing themselves around like it’s a demolition derby, and I can’t help but think those helmets give them a false sense of security.

Now, the A7FL—those folks are doing something different. They’ve tossed the helmets aside, and what do they get? A game that demands more strategy, better tackling techniques, and a greater emphasis on skill rather than brute force. When you take away the helmets, players are much less likely to lead with their heads because—guess what? They don’t want to get hurt! It's a simple concept, really. You can only fool around with your noggin’ so much before it decides to stop working properly.

But then, there's the NFL—the big league, the money-maker. Would they really be willing to take that step? What’s the price we’re willing to pay for entertainment? Are we willing to sacrifice the long-term health of our players for a few extra moments of bravado?

Now, I'm not saying the NFL should jump into this helmet-free world immediately. We need to consider practical implications—like injuries and safety protocols. But just maybe, by stripping down the armor, we’d get a game that’s more about finesse and less about smashing heads. Football is already a sport that’s evolving; we’ve seen rule changes to protect players. Why stop there? After all, it’s all fun and games until someone gets a concussion.

So, in the end, the question remains—should the NFL follow the A7FL and go helmetless? I don’t think we’re ready to make that leap just yet, but it sure is food for thought.
So here’s to the A7FL a league that symbolizes safety here’s two its lying like spirit carrying a cross of safety while showcasing a bold departure from the norm.

The Dodgers won the 2024 World Series last night against the New York Yankees 7-6 in game five. It was a long game, but not a boring one. I thought the Dodgers would never score. The score was 5 to 0 the Yankees. The game to me was pretty fast paced for a baseball game. The Yankees kept scoring in the first inning, but the Dodgers kept on swinging until the game was tied. Finally at last, the Dodgers outscored the Yankees.

Yes, we witnessed incredible baseball game last night, the final showdown of the 2024 World Series! The Los Angeles Dodgers made history by beating the New York Yankees in an unforgettable game five that had fans on the edge of their seats.

Boy how the Dodgers turned things around with the brave spirit of true champions they reach deep  inside themselves. Each pitcher found their rhythm and the Dodgers kept swinging away.

Time went on and what appeared to be the end for the Dodgers became a spark of hope with some luck and maybe just stubbornness. They started to fight back, run by run, until finally they tied the game. This was the moment when everything changed and the excitement was palpable.

And just when you thought it couldn’t get any better, the Dodgers not only tied the game, but showed what champions are made of by outscoring the Yankees in the later innings. With every hit and every stolen base, they created a story much bigger than the score itself.

A game filled with tension, drama, and unforgettable moments that made you jump from your seat. This is why we love the amazing game!

Info from: Wikipedia 

Welcome, sports fans, to a riveting recount of the life and career of James "Fly" Williams, an electrifying figure in the world of basketball! Get ready for some high-flying action as we zoom through his story with all the excitement of a live game broadcast!

And here we go! It’s February 18, 1953, and we have a new player on the scene, born and raised in the bustling streets of New York! James "Fly" Williams bursts onto the basketball stage like a fast break! Fast forward to 1978! The crowd gathers at the IS8 League, where Williams dazzles the audience, dropping an astonishing 100 points in a single game! What a performance!

James Floyd Williams is an awesome former professional basketball player and a street basketball player.

The draft year is 1974! Williams is hot off a stint at Austin Peay State University, recruited by the legendary Leonard Hamilton. His collegiate numbers? Oh, just a casual 29.4 points per game in '73! That's good enough for fifth in the nation, folks! He’s not just in the game; he’s dominating it!

It’s tournament time! The Austin Peay Governors make a splash in the NCAA tourney! Williams scores 26 points in their first-round victory over Jacksonville University. The momentum builds, but in the next round, heartbreak strikes! The Governors face the powerhouse University of Kentucky and drop a nail-biter in overtime. But Fly isn’t done yet! He races back into the spotlight, scoring 51 points twice as a freshman. Now that’s what we call a scoring machine!

And we’re back on the court! By the sophomore season, Williams is averaging an impressive 27.5 points per game—third highest in the entire NCAA. Once again, he leads the Governors to the NCAA tournament, but this time the dream ends early against Notre Dame. *Tough break, but this guy is relentless!

With 1,541 career points at Austin Peay and a jaw-dropping 28.5 average, Williams turns pro! The Denver Nuggets scoop him up in the first round of the 1974 ABA Draft as the second overall pick! But slow the action down—his rookie season with the Spirits of St. Louis is a rollercoaster! After a promising start, he only averages 9.4 points per game. Showmanship starts to overshadow those scoring numbers!

Back to the game! The Spirits face a tough season and, unfortunately, the ABA-NBA merger puts them on the chopping block! The crowd hold their breath—what’s next for Fly? The Philadelphia 76ers grab him in the draft, but no contract means we’re not done yet!

But the story doesn't end here! In retirement, Williams reinvents himself, giving back to the community by working with disadvantaged youth while still hitting the asphalt for some streetball action.

Welcome, sports fans, to a riveting recount of the life and career of James "Fly" Williams, an electrifying figure in the world of basketball! Get ready for some high-flying action as we zoom through his story with all the excitement of a live game broadcast!

And here we go! It’s February 18, 1953, and we have a new player on the scene, born and raised in the bustling streets of New York! James "Fly" Williams bursts onto the basketball stage like a fast break! Fast forward to 1978! The crowd gathers at the IS8 League, where Williams dazzles the audience, dropping an astonishing 100 points in a single game! What a performance!

James Floyd Williams is an awesome former professional basketball player and a street basketball player.

The draft year is 1974! Williams is hot off a stint at Austin Peay State University, recruited by the legendary Leonard Hamilton. His collegiate numbers? Oh, just a casual 29.4 points per game in '73! That's good enough for fifth in the nation, folks! He’s not just in the game; he’s dominating it!

It’s tournament time! The Austin Peay Governors make a splash in the NCAA tourney! Williams scores 26 points in their first-round victory over Jacksonville University. The momentum builds, but in the next round, heartbreak strikes! The Governors face the powerhouse University of Kentucky and drop a nail-biter in overtime. But Fly isn’t done yet! He races back into the spotlight, scoring 51 points twice as a freshman. Now that’s what we call a scoring machine!

And we’re back on the court! By the sophomore season, Williams is averaging an impressive 27.5 points per game—third highest in the entire NCAA. Once again, he leads the Governors to the NCAA tournament, but this time the dream ends early against Notre Dame. *Tough break, but this guy is relentless!

With 1,541 career points at Austin Peay and a jaw-dropping 28.5 average, Williams turns pro! The Denver Nuggets scoop him up in the first round of the 1974 ABA Draft as the second overall pick! But slow the action down—his rookie season with the Spirits of St. Louis is a rollercoaster! After a promising start, he only averages 9.4 points per game. Showmanship starts to overshadow those scoring numbers!

Back to the game! The Spirits face a tough season and, unfortunately, the ABA-NBA merger puts them on the chopping block! The crowd hold their breath—what’s next for Fly? The Philadelphia 76ers grab him in the draft, but no contract means we’re not done yet!

But the story doesn't end here! In retirement, Williams reinvents himself, giving back to the community by working with disadvantaged youth while still hitting the asphalt for some streetball action. His legendary status is solidified as he’s named the number two athlete in the "50 Greatest Streetballers of All Time!" The legend of Fly continues!

And to cap it all, Austin Peay graciously retires his number 35 jersey on February 5, 2009. What a tribute to an unforgettable career!

And there you have it, folks! James "Fly" Williams—a remarkable journey of highs and lows, triumphs and trials, but always, always soaring to new heights! This story, much like the game of basketball, is never truly over!

Ladies and gentlemen, let me tell you, in the annals of sports history, a monumental moment has just unfolded before our very eyes! Yes, indeed! In a breathtaking spectacle that echoes through the corridors of time, LeBron James and his son, Bronny, have achieved the unprecedented feat of becoming the very first father and son duo to grace the hardwood of an NBA game together!

The venerable Los Angeles Lakers, the storied franchise of legends, taking the court in a preseason showdown. There they were, two generations of basketball brilliance, sharing the stage like true titans of the game!

This isn’t just a story of athletic achievement; no, my friends, it’s a narrative filled with the essence of legacy, the intertwining of family and sport that connects with each and every one of us! As we watch them move in time with each other, the torch being passed, if you will, from the father to the son, it becomes very clear: history has been made, and we’ve been lucky enough to see it!

So, mark the date on your calendars, Sunday, Oct. 6, 2024. For it is a day not just for the Lakers but for all of basketball! The era of LeBron and Bronny is upon us, and one can only speculate on what dazzling heights they will reach in this remarkable journey together!

Hello everyone! It’s story time. We’re spotlighting a remarkable story that goes beyond just talent on the court. It’s Resurren, a rising star in women's basketball, but she has had a battle with ankle injuries.

 After suffering multiple sprains during her high school career Resurren decided it was time to take control of her faith and her footwear. She collaborated with a well-known sneaker brand to design a pair of custom sneakers specifically made to support her ankles while still allowing for agility and style.

 Resurren is wearing what is called Resurren’s Ankle Footnote. The shoe has a special tongue buckle for the ankle. Not only does it support her ankle, but the tongue is made to stay in place, and the shoe has two pairs shoelace style. The lace do not untie.

 She said to The Morning Riselines, “I wanted something that would not only keep me safe, but also reflect my personality. These shoes made me feel like I can fly on the court.”

 Resurren is not just wearing her story. She’s paving the way for future athletes who want both performance and flare in their gear.

Hello! I'm Gail Nobles. Welcome to Entertainment Podcasting Sports. Today's topic is Street Football. Today I saw a documentary series on street football entitled Kings of the Underground. I didn't see any other players dressed for safety, but they were wearing football jerseys. They were playing out in a field.

 Their game looks a whole lot different than the NFL. So many people stand around in a circle to watch the game. I doubt that they have the same rules as the NFL, and when they play, I heard the documentary say the players get paid. Your thousand dollars can turn into 16 grand.

 The players embody a raw authentic spirit. There is a lot of cursing and trash talking. I guess it's a means of asserting identity and confidence. They do more than wrap with words to prove they are the best. The streetball players knock each other down, and you wouldn't want to get in their way. They play a rough game.

 So be sure to check out the documentary Kings of the Underground. Thank you for listening to EPS.

It's hard to say what's going down at Rucker Park, but thanks to Clash TV, I got some streetball buzz about A11Even versus Brotherly Love. AllEven were the champions. I found out today that history has unfolded on the hallowed grounds of Rucker Park. Brotherly Love has triumph over the reigning champions A11Even.

 With the tension of eager spectators lining the asphalt, each one holding their breath as two titans prepare to collide. Brotherly Love managed to outscore A11 Even and their shots were pure as the driven snow.

 But do not take away from the champions A11Even, no sir! They are a tough team. They went to play showcasing their own arsenal of tricks and athleticism, but they could not contain the hurricane that was from Brotherly Love.

 A11Even we're ahead in the game 81 to 65 in the fourth. And the game was tied 94 to 94. But Brotherly Love caught up and out scored them. It was a three-point game - 97 to 100 - Brotherly Love. A game streamed live on July 8, 2024.

 What transpired at Rucker Park was more than just a game. It was a cultural phenomenon, a dance of basketball greatness! As Brotherly Love emerged victorious, we were left in awe, reminded that in the city that never sleeps, legends are born, and the appetite for the game is as fierce as ever.

Today I'm going to dive into the thrilling world of a 7F 12 football where chaos meet camaraderie, and every replay is a electrifying as a bolt of lightning. I'm proclaiming from the rooftop that the Trenton BIC team is my favorite team. Yes! Trenton BIC have captured my heart. The team captured my heart the first time I saw them play on television with their audacious style and restless determination on the field.

 Oh the electricity that surges through the stands, the pulse of the crowd as they rally behind these gridiron gladiators. It's a spectacle, a theater of sport unlike any other, and at the center of all is Trenton BIC - squad that embodies grit, passion, and then unyielding spirit of competition! 

 From the last time I checked: North East 2024. Trenton BIC. 9 wins, 1 loss, ; Number one position. 

 Folks, these men don't just play football. They redefined it. Each touchdown can send you into a frenzy and every play is a potential game changer. Trenton BIC takes me on a wild ride to the highs and lows of A7FL football. Oh, how I enjoy the thrill of it all!

Ladies and gentlemen, gather around to hear some electrifying world of basketball news. Today's topic is about the long story of heroic achievement of one magnificent athlete: Isaiah Briscoe! The man who's tenacity and skill have landed him a spot with the well-known trilogy in the Big Three League.

 Now let me tell you something. Briscoe is not just any old ball player. Briscoe joined the Philadelphia 76ers for the 2017 NBA Summer league. Isaiah Briscoe drives to the hoop with an unyielding determination that will have fans on the edge of their seats.

 On July 6, 2018 Briscoe sign with the Orlando Magic. He made his NBA debut on October 19, 2018 recording 10 points and three assists off the bench in a 88 to 120 loss to the Charlotte Hornets. On April 4, 2019, Briscoe was waived by the Orlando Magic. But he didn't just stop there. He signed with some other teams. Briscoe has scoring abilities, and I can go on and on about his past career in the NBA.

 Let's not forget the significance of his role in the Trilogy. He's on a team that has reigned supreme in the Big Three. The Big Three has added Briscoe to the league and the games are not just played. It's a showcase of talent, will, and above all, heart just like a wild cat. He's the leading scorer 21.4 points per game and is the definition of too hard to go according to Big3.

 Wilt Chamberlain and Bill Russell had one of the most famous rivalries in NBA history, marked by a fierce competition on the court that defined an era of basketball during the 1960s. Their rivalry was characterized by contrasting styles of play and differing approaches to basketball.

I want to talk to you about the playing styles.  Wilt Chamberlain was known for his incredible scoring ability, rebounding, and size. He often dominated offensively, scoring points at will. Bill Russell, on the other hand, was renowned for his defensive prowess, shot-blocking ability, and leadership. He focused more on team success and was a master at making critical defensive plays.

Head-to-Head Matchups**: The rivalry was highlighted by their matchups in the playoffs, particularly in the Eastern Conference. Chamberlain’s Philadelphia 76ers and Russell's Boston Celtics met frequently, with the Celtics often coming out on top, especially during the playoffs. The Celtics won 11 championships during Russell’s career, while Chamberlain won two.

The third thing is 1960s NBA Finals. The rivalry reached its peak during the NBA Finals, where Russell's Celtics defeated Chamberlain's teams multiple times. Most notably, the Celtics won against the 76ers in the 1967 Eastern Conference Finals, ending Chamberlain's best chance at a championship with a powerhouse team.

Wilt Chamberlain holds numerous scoring records, including the highest points per game in a single season (50.4). Bill Russell, though not a prolific scorer like Chamberlain, has the record for the most championships won by a player in NBA history.

Everybody is talking about LeBron James, but I've been watching Joel Embiid. LeBron broke Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's career scoring record, but Embiid also broke Hall of Famer Wilt Chamberlain's record of 68 points. Both achievements are significant milestones in the history of the NBA and showcase the talent and skill of these two players.

LeBron may be number one but Embiid is making a case for being the best player in the league right now. He's a force on both ends of the court and showcasing his scoring ability. He plays like a monster blocking shots, making step back moves , pump bakes, and rebounds. Embiid is showing his defensive skills.So while LeBron may be getting all the attention, don't sleep on Joel Embiid. He has impressive performance.

Joel Embiid has a record of 6 to 3 versus LeBron James in his career. So keep your eyes on Joel Embiid. He's a monster on the court.

Did you know two members of the Detroit Lions sang on Marvin Gaye’s hit What's Going On. It was Mel Farr and Lem Barney. They made friends with Marvin. Marvin Gaye tried out for the Detroit Lions. He believe that he could play football and that he had mentality. Lem Barney thought that Marvin could have played ball if he had started early on. Marvin was in his 30s when he tried out for football. If I'm not mistaken, Lem Barney said Marvin did pretty good. He just lacked some experience. Marvin was unable to make it a football career.

 I think Marvin should have been able to play, but that's just my opinion. If Marvin had the mentality like he said, and if he had a good understanding of the game, I don't think it was too late for Marvin. If he was hungry for football success and was willing to be persistent, I think he would have made it. If Joe Schmidt the coach would have kept on working with Marvin, he would have eventually picked up on things and played well.

The Philadelphia 76ers drafted Lewis eighteenth in the first round of the 1973 NBA draft. By all accounts he played spectacularly during rookie camp, outplaying Doug Collins, the No. 1 pick in the draft and a star for the 1972 U.S. Olympic team. However, after a contract dispute, the 76ers said Lewis walked out. According to Lewis in 1985, 76ers coach Gene Shue told him to sit out a year and mature. The following year Lewis said he left because the 76ers "tore up my original agreement and said, 'Now you have to make the team.' There were 12 guys on the team with guaranteed contracts. I said, 'Wait a minute.'

In his second professional year he tried to play for the ABA's Utah Stars but the 76ers threatened a lawsuit that kept him from playing. In 1975, he was invited back to Philadelphia one more time, for the third year of his three-year contract, but did not make the team.
Lewis battled alcoholism and depression for the later part of his life. He died in February 2001 of complications following amputation of an infected leg and a stroke.

 I've seen the documentary on Raymond Lewis. He could really play basketball. They said the things he did on the court was how the players played today. Raymond, I'm sure was before his time, and it seemed the NBA didn't want him.

 Raymond would run down the court with the ball doing back dribbles. He was just unstoppable. He made his shots. When he reached 30 years old, he was still that good and never played in the NBA. He must've had something that Magic Johnson and Dr. J and all the other great players didn't have. They must have feared him. They had to. How are you not going to want someone as good as Raymond Lewis?

 Some people just don't want to see people make it, and when things are not so good in their lives, they wonder why. Raymond Lewis still made history with his God-given talent. He may not have made history the way Dr. J and all those other players made it, but he made history.  Raymond Lewis was so good the NBA didn't want him. Like I said, they feared him.

The Mighty Air Gliders 
Story and art by: Gail Nobles ©️2024

George Stilts played on an exhibition basketball team called The Mighty Air Gliders. He had been watching Resurren play ball on the playground from a distance. George didn’t want her to know that he was watching.  

One cool dark night Resurren was shooting hoops alone. She heard a voice speaking to her. 
 
George: You won’t have to worry about old Jack helping you to get nowhere. You don’t need him. One day soon I’m going to have you.

Resurren saw a tall young man standing far off from her, and she couldn’t see his face very well. 

Resurren: Have me? What are you talking about? Do I know you?

George: You’re going to be on my team. They’ll be no playing around. I’ll be training you to work on the court up and down. 

Resurren: Work?

George:  Players need to practice their skills, work on their fitness, and strategize with their team in order to be successful on the court. It takes dedication, perseverance, and a competitive mindset to come out on top in basketball. Just like in any job, hard work and effort are required to achieve success. But the rewards of victory and the thrill of competition make it all worth it in the end. If you play on my team, you’ll be on a winning team getting paid.

Resurren: Who are you? What’s the name of that team you’re talking about?  George turned and walked away. Resurren didn’t try to follow him. She felt a little nervous about being in the dark alone after talking to the stranger and she went inside. Her home was not far from the playground. Resurren never heard the voice of the stranger again until  her senior year. 


One day five famous female girls from the Mighty Air Gliders challenged Resurren and her high school team. They started pushing Resurren around. Everyone thought they were trouble. Nobody knew who the girls really were. Not even Resurren. But the teachers and the principal knew. They were planning something for the schools. Rezza and her high school basketball team were in an event that provided scholarships. Both male and female basketball teams. The female Cobras played against the female Mighty Air Gliders who disguised themselves as the Hoop Stars. 

They were playing in a tournament where the winning team would receive scholarships for college. The stakes were high, as many of the girls and guys participating were hoping to earn a scholarship to continue their education after high school. The pressure was on, but they were determined to give it their all and come out on top. 

In the end,The Cobras and The Hoop Stars were the last teams to play against each other, both the male team and female team. The female Cobras lost by 10 points against the female Hoop Stars, and the male Cobras lost 15 points against the male Hoop Stars. In the end, The Hoop Stars revealed that they were the famous Mighty Air Gliders. The male and female Cobras lost against them but still received scholarships for being in the number 1 spot over the other shool teams, showcasing their talent and potential to succeed at a higher level of competition.

The scholarships allowed them to pursue their college education without the burden of heavy student loans, opening up new opportunities and possibilities for their futures. The experience of winning the tournament and earning the scholarships had a lasting impact on the students, instilling in them a sense of confidence and determination that would serve them well in their future endeavors.There were also 2nd and 3rd place cash and prizes. 


As Resurren happily walked down the hall later that day to her locker to go home, she heard the voice that spoke to her in the dark.

George: Remember, one day you’re going to be on my team, but not now.

When Resurren turned aound to look behind her, it was George Stilts. She knew then who had spoken to her in the dark. It was one of the Mighty Air Gliders.

Resurren saw a tall young man standing far off from her, and she couldn’t see his face very well. 

Resurren: Have me? What are you talking about? Do I know you?

George: You’re going to be on my team. They’ll be no playing around. I’ll be training you to work on the court up and down. 

Resurren: Work?

George:  Players need to practice their skills, work on their fitness, and strategize with their team in order to be successful on the court. It takes dedication, perseverance, and a competitive mindset to come out on top in basketball. Just like in any job, hard work and effort are required to achieve success. But the rewards of victory and the thrill of competition make it all worth it in the end. If you play on my team, you’ll be on a winning team getting paid.

Resurren: Who are you? What’s the name of that team you’re talking about?  George turned and walked away. Resurren didn’t try to follow him. She felt a little nervous about being in the dark alone after talking to the stranger and she went inside. Her home was not far from the playground. Resurren never heard the voice of the stranger again until  her senior year. 


One day five famous female girls from the Mighty Air Gliders challenged Resurren and her high school team. They started pushing Resurren around. Everyone thought they were trouble. Nobody knew who the girls really were. Not even Resurren. But the teachers and the principal knew. They were planning something for the schools. Rezza and her high school basketball team were in an event that provided scholarships. Both male and female basketball teams. The female Cobras played against the female Mighty Air Gliders who disguised themselves as the Hoop Stars. 

They were playing in a tournament where the winning team would receive scholarships for college. The stakes were high, as many of the girls and guys participating were hoping to earn a scholarship to continue their education after high school. The pressure was on, but they were determined to give it their all and come out on top. 

In the end,The Cobras and The Hoop Stars were the last teams to play against each other, both the male team and female team. The female Cobras lost by 10 points against the female Hoop Stars, and the male Cobras lost 15 points against the male Hoop Stars. In the end, The Hoop Stars revealed that they were the famous Mighty Air Gliders. The male and female Cobras lost against them but still received scholarships for being in the number 1 spot over the other shool teams, showcasing their talent and potential to succeed at a higher level of competition.

The scholarships allowed them to pursue their college education without the burden of heavy student loans, opening up new opportunities and possibilities for their futures. The experience of winning the tournament and earning the scholarships had a lasting impact on the students, instilling in them a sense of confidence and determination that would serve them well in their future endeavors.There were also 2nd and 3rd place cash and prizes. 


As Resurren happily walked down the hall later that day to her locker to go home, she heard the voice that spoke to her in the dark.

Awesome slam from Jaylen Brown on two men. They just couldn't stop him!Hello! I'm Gail Nobles on EPS (Entertainment Podcasting Sports). It was the 2024 NBA finals game 1:  Dallas Mavericks versus Boston Celtics. In that game, I saw Jaylen Brown make an unstoppable slam. Dallas was at 26 and Celtics at 42 and Jalen's fiery slam moved the Celtics up to 44 in the second half.

 The final was 89 to 107 Celtics. Jaylen Brown lead the Celtics with 22 points. He looks like another leader for the Celtics, and a three-time NBA All-Star and reached the Eastern Conference finals six times with Boston. He helped the Celtics reach the 2022 and 2024 NBA finals winning a championship and finals MVP award in the latter.

 Jaylen Brown is awesome in several areas on the basketball court making points, rebounds, blocks, steals, three-pointers, and assists.  He is another player that is very valuable on the Boston Celtics team. Will Celtics bring home another championship for 2025? We shall see?

Big3 is a 3-on-3 basketball league founded by hip-hop musician and actor Ice Cube and entertainment executive Jeff Kwatinetz.  The league’s games can be watched on CBS. The teams compete from late June through mid August. You can also watch them on YouTube. It is now as popular as traditional basketball. Big3 is now established and is a popular alternative for basketball fans during the NBA off-season.

Could Big3 have their own TV station? Why not? It's not impossible for a person who owns their own sports league to also own a TV station for broadcasting their league’s games. This would allow the league owner to have full control over the broadcast rights and production of their games, potentially increasing revenue and exposure for the league. Ice Cube seems pretty intelligent enough to do so although TV station can require significant financial investment and resources. It could be a challenge.

The Boston Celtics are the number one team in the NBA right now of 2024. When you think of the Boston Celtics, you probably think of Jayson Tatum. He's a five-time NBA All-Star and four-time all NBA selection. Tatum was named the NBA Eastern conference finals most valuable player in 2022 and helped the Celtics reached the NBA finals in 2024. He led the team to a league - best 64 wins and a championship in the NBA finals. He won a gold medal with 2020 US Olympic team in Tokyo. He hold the records for most points scored in an NBA All-Star game (55) and most points scored in game seven of any NBA playoff series (51).

 The Boston Celtics definitely need to keep Jayson Tatum. Keeping him on the team ensures a bright future for the Boston Celtics with Tatum. I think it's possible that the Celtics can win the championship again for 2025, but the Celtics need to stay strong. There is big competition in the NBA and every team will be fighting for the title but with Jayson Tatum's talent and potential there is certainly a possibility that the Celtics could bring home another championship in 2025.

Rugby League football commonly known as rugby league in English-speaking countries is a full-contact sport played by two teams of thirteen players on a rectangular field measuring 68 m (74 yd) wide and 112–122 m (122–133 yd) long with H-shaped posts at both ends. It is one of the two major codes of rugby football, the other being rugby union.[a] It originated in 1895 in Huddersfield, Yorkshire, England, as the result of a split from the Rugby Football Union (RFU) over the issue of payments to players. The rules of the game governed by the new Northern Rugby Football Union progressively changed from those of the RFU with the specific aim of producing a faster and more entertaining game to appeal to spectators, on whose income the new organisation and its members depended.

In rugby league, points are scored by carrying an oval ball and touching it to the ground beyond the opposing team's goal line; this is called a try, and is the primary method of scoring, worth four points. The opposing team attempts to stop the attacking side scoring points by tackling the player carrying the ball and denying forward progress. Field goals or drop goals can be attempted from the hand at any time for a single point, and following a successful try, the scoring team gains a free kick to try at goal with a conversion worth a further two points.[3] Penalty kicks at goal, known simply as penalties, may also be awarded for general foul play, and are also worth two points.

 Rugby league looks like a fun football game to play though it's different than American football, but they are also similar.

 I've been seeing rugby league football in newsfeeds. A rugby league football player named David Fifita is very popular in the news.

Sometimes I have to wonder why some of the ball players are in trouble. If they could just stay calm and go on with their careers. Lately in the headlines I've been seeing Rashee Rice who plays on the Kansas City Chiefs team. I hate the headlines I've been seeing about him. Every time I look and every time I turn around I see somebody's name with a career that has the word alleged assault. 


Rashee Rice is accused of assault at Dallas nightclub. Dallas police have reportedly opened a new criminal investigation into Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashi Rice. He's already charged with eight felonies for a high-speed hit and run crash in late March that injured four people. Rashee has a football career. I don't understand why he's getting into all that trouble. He's got something to look forward to in life.  

I don't understand any ball player that gets into so much trouble. I don't understand the domestic violence of some ball players. I don't understand the sexual assault cases. Ball players get suspended and something needs to be done. Every time I turn around somebody's getting arrested on assault charges. There is no excuse. They need to stay out of trouble.

A ball player can be a positive example, and they have the power to turn somebody else's life around that’s down. They could be doing positive things to make this a better world. If a ball player or anyone for that matter has a career and maybe came from a rough town or city in crime can change. They can make a difference in their life and maybe somebody else's life.  I know that they are human too and sometimes face challenges and struggles like anyone else. But if they could just avoid getting into trouble with the law and move on to have a wonderful career.

Today's topic Master P 

Master P has a lot of occupations. He is a rapper, songwriter, record producer, record executive, entrepreneur, investor, businessman, actor, and professional basketball player. Master P was smart to become all those things. He's got security. In case he goes broke in one thing, he can be rich in another. Master P doesn't lay all his eggs in one basket.

 Basketball really looks like something for Master P. I read about how he was on the Charlotte Hornets training camp roster in 1999. He was on the Toronto Raptors. He signed with the San Diego Stingrays in 2004. Master P played for the ABA’s  Las Vegas Rattlers, and Long Beach Jam, and the list goes on. Looks like he has a great love for basketball. I've also read that Master P has obtained ownership of the global mixed gender basketball team in his hometown the New Orleans Gators. Master P is Percy “Master P” Miller.

Many times it’s been said no helmets; no pads. No kickoffs & field goals. Just 3 throwing players and one receiver. Today I’m going to talk about two A7FL teams. Shnow Tribe VS BIC.

The Shnow Tribe is an A7FL team that can bury you deeply under. I’ve seen them at 6 to 0 Shnow Tribe, in the first half of a game in 2022. They won that game 40 to 27. They can be a pretty impressive team. They learn how another team plays and Shnow Tribe plays hard to win.  

Today it was cold and windy. On March 24, 2024, the Shnow Tribe played against BIC. They lost against BIC. The score was 0 to 42. It wasn’t 0 degrees for BIC with a winning score. BIC was hot.

Ashanti Worthy made a touch down right away at the beginning of the game waving his finger looking back while running. He made the BIC team 6 points in the first quarter. Worthy was wearing black and red with his team. Black and red together symbolizes power and dominance. The BIC team kept scoring all the way through the game leaving Shnow Tribe at 0.

Now the Shnow Tribe team has something to think about before they play again. A7FL has just begun and Shnow Tribe maybe just got off to a bad start. This isn’t the first time that the Shnow Tribe team lost to BIC at zero. It happened in 2022. The Shnow Tribe defiantly will need a rematch.

Summer is coming soon! I can hear the bouncing of the ball. Hello! I'm Gail Nobles. Welcome to Entertainment Podcasting Sports. I have heard that there are still some games being played at Rucker Park. I've been hearing about Kyrie Irving that he has a team called A11 and that his team is a winner. I've seen some highlights from Rucker Park Men's Championship game of 2023. It was A11 versus hidden talent 79 to 77 A11.

So who is Kyrie Irving? He is a professional basketball player for the Dallas Mavericks of the NBA. Irving wears number 11 for a multitude of reasons.

So today you've heard something about summer basketball of 2023: The Rucker Park Men's Championship. You've learned that Kyrie has a team A11Even who has played against another team called Hidden Talent. Hopefully, they'll be more games at Rucker Park for 2024.

Thank you for listening to EPS.

Hello everyone! I'm sitting here watching the game and the game is over. The 49ers final score 22 and the Kansas City Chiefs 25. When they went into overtime, I thought: Oh it's going to be a long game. When I looked again, in no time the Kansas City Chiefs won again. The Chiefs are Super Bowl champs. I was hoping the 49ers would win this time but they didn't. Bboth teams are great and the time on the clock ran out so fast. Only one team can win. The 49ers lost by only three points and it all happened so fast. Well there's nothing more I can say. The Kansas City Chiefs are the champions for Super Bowl 2024.

People want to know why Mike Tyson never fought Bob Sapp. It is said that it was a fight that almost happened. Why didn't it happen? The fight should have happened anywhere in any time in the ring. Now all people can do is question why the fight didn't happen and speculate who would have won.

I hate it when a fight between two great fighters doesn't happen. Money can be one of the reasons and excuses that boxing fights between the best doesn't happen.
Mike Tyson was willing to fight Bob Sapp. He told sapp to sign the contract. Bob Sapp glove touched Mike Tyson's cheek as he was trying to get to Mike Tyson in the ring, and that's as close as it gets to Bob having a fight with Mike Tyson. Mike Tyson said he would fight him that night and the Marquess of Queensberry. Bob Sapp told Mike that if he were to mess with him he would put his fuse out.

I think Bob Sapp should have signed that contract. They could have had a fight in the U.S., and there could have been a rematch for the loser, and there could have been a fight in Japan for the rematch. Bob Sapp is well known in Japan. If there had been a rematch, I think it would have been a great one. I believe in rematches. Especially if two great fighters have never fought each other before. The first fight would help a fighter to know his opponents way of boxing for the rematch. Everybody deserves a second chance. The loser can get an opportunity to fight for the boxing title back or prove that he is still the greatest. A fighter can learn from his mistakes and can come up with new strategies and can become more stronger and know what to expect.

A rematch would be great for the fans too. They keep the excitement going and would have great interest in the fight between two great boxes. They help keep the noise and buzz going in the news by attending the fight. The fans would have played a big role in the interest of a Mike Tyson and Bob Sapp rematch giving their opinions on which fighter is the best. It would have been a popular rematch and fight.

Hello! I'm Gail Nobles. Welcome to EPS Inside Look. Today’s topic is Jordan and Stackhouse. According to pass headlines, Jerry Stackhouse had some regrets playing with Michael Jordan on the Washington Wizards team, but they must have thought an awfully lot of Stackhouse to put him on a team with Jordan. Jerry Stackhouse was known for his scoring ability. I loved to see him slam dunk as well. He was an attractive player in that way to me and reminded me of Michael Jordan.

When most people think about the NBA, they think of Michael Jordan as the greatest NBA player of all time. That he is, but I can't ignore Jerry Stackhouse. People look at scores and numbers, but I saw a great player in Stackhouse. I think he did well in the game of basketball. Jerry Stackhouse had an outstanding performance in the game against the Chicago Bulls while playing for the Detroit Pistons. He showcased his skills and abilities on the court contributing significantly to the team success. Jerry's excellent performance was awesome and leading the Pistons to victory and the Chicago Bulls were a very tough team to play against.

Michael Jordan had not retired at the time when Jerry Stackhouse was on the Pistons team. Jerry Stackhouse played for the Detroit Pistons from 1997 to 2002, while Michael Jordan retired for the first time from professional basketball from 1993 to 1995, and then again from 1999 to 2001. Stackhouse played two seasons with the Pistons before being traded to the Washington Wizards in 2002.

The Washington Wizards were not successful during the time when Michael Jordan and Jerry Stackhouse were on the team together. Jordan joined the Wizards as a player and part owner in 2001, and Stackhouse was traded from the Detroit Pistons in 2002 if I'm not mistaken.
Stackhouse mentioned that it was a challenging time for him and that he wished he had never played in Washington, and for a number of reasons. I guess that Stackhouse felt that he was doing well before he got traded. Maybe he felt that he was doing better with his teammates with the Pistons and that could have affected his performance on the court. The coaching style was different I'm sure on the Wizards team then on the Pistons team. It could have been a number of things.

But to me, no matter what the outcome was with him playing with Jordan, I still saw a great player in Stackhouse. But I think the reason Stackhouse thought he was a better player because on the Pistons team, maybe he saw the opportunity to succeed with better support. However it was good that Stackhouse had his experience with Jordan.

I'm Gail Nobles thank you for listening to EPS Inside Look.

The Baltimore Watchmen 8&2. On May 7, 2023, it was the East Orange Renegades versus Baltimore Watchmen. 0-60 Baltimore Watchmen. I believe it can happen to any team when a team doesn't score. The East Orange Renegades just happened not to score that day. I didn't see the game, but I'd like to say there are a number of factors why team doesn't score.

The Baltimore Watchmen versus DC Buzz on April 30, 2023. 60-0 Watchmen wins. DC buzz is another team that didn't score against the Watchmen. It is my belief not to just make judgments against a team’s abilities based on just their scoring against another team on a particular time or day. In my opinion, both teams that lost against the Watchmen are good teams. I've seen them play, but I cannot say why they lost because I didn't see those particular games. But I can say that the Baltimore Watchmen must be a pretty good team and a tough one.

When a team can leave more than one team behind, and when those teams do not score, that is saying a lot about the winning team. The watchmen were the winners, and each individual on the team helps to make that possible.

Rakieem Chany-quarterback defensive end
John Gause Junior-quarterback
Marlin Anderson-wide receiver
Joshua Butcher-wide receiver cornerback
Edward Junior-wide receiver safety
just to name a few.
They are all winners on one team. A7FL superstars.
The Baltimore Watchmen.

It's rare if neither team scores in the overtime period. When that happens, the game ends in a tie. In the NFL, August 17, 2023, the Cleveland Browns and the Philadelphia Eagles tied the game 18 to 18 final. It was the 2023 preseason week two.

In the third quarter, the Browns had eight and the Eagles had 10. In the fourth quarter it was 18 to 18.

I have never seen a tide game in final score. Seeing the Browns and Eagles tied game was my first time seeing a game tied in the final. Like I said, it is rare if neither team scores in the overtime.

The Eagles are now nine and one, and the Browns are seven and three in rankings.

The Browns won their recent game against the Steelers and will be playing against the Broncos on Sunday.

The Eagles will play against the Buffalo Bills.

It looks like both the Browns and Eagles might be winning this coming Sunday. But don't take my word for it. You’ll have to watch the game and let what you see speak for itself.

It was motorbike racer Reggie Showers. It was my first time seeing a drag race motorcycle like his. I saw him and his motorcycle in Jet Magazine. I didn't know they made and designed motorcycles like his. It looked like a Pro Stock Motorcycle formally known as Pro Stock Bike.

What's the recent news for drag racing in 2023? According to cyclenews.com, Gaige Herrera finished off the 2023 NHRA Pro Stock Motorcycle Championship with his record setting 11th win.

NHRA stands for National Hot Rod Association in Pro Stock Motorcycle racing. NHRA is the organizing body that overseas the rules and regulations of the sport.

The Kansas City Chiefs have played the Philadelphia Eagles a total of 10 times in their series history. The Chiefs won six games and the Philadelphia Eagles won four. The Chiefs won last year in the Super Bowl 57 on February 12, 2023 and then week four of the NFL regular season on Sunday, October 3, 2021.

I believe the Kansas City Chiefs could win Monday night. But there's also a possibility that the Philadelphia Eagles could win who are eight and one and the Chiefs are seven and two. I believe it’s going to be a tough game.

So watch the Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs Monday, November 20 8:15 PM Eastern time. I'm Gail Nobles on Entertainment Podcasting Sports.

Story: Ziane's Athletic Footwear

Hello! It’s story time again. This is a continuing story of Lady Ziane Richardson. Today’s topic: Ziane’s Athletic Footwear.

Hoof-Zs is a line of baseball shoes produced by a shoe company for Ziane. The shoe logo is known as a horseshoe and the toe box of the shoe is very unique. And the tongue is wide, but you don’t have to worry about lacing up shoe laces.

After Ziane got some fame in women’s baseball, she designed her own shoes and had them made. After people had seen Ziane’s shoes, everyone wanted a pair. After that, Ziane signed a shoe deal. The Hoof-Zs sneaker was successful with the goal of making millions of dollars.

Lady Ziane was feared on the baseball field. Her shoe print was the print of horseshoes left in the sand. Ziane left her mark on the world of baseball.

Hello! I'm Gail Nobles. It's story time. Today's episode: Ziane’s Baseball Armor. Ziane Richardson was both a picture and hitter and catcher in baseball. She was like a supernatural baseball player with a lot of energy and power, but she knew she was human too. Ziane had enemies from her own team. She knew she could bleed and die. Ziane had power and dominion, but she would never let it go to her head.

Not only did Zion have enemies on her own team but from the audience too many people would bet on the baseball games and those that didn't want the Astros to win hated Zion Richardson.

Lady Ziane thought about the crime lord that got locked up in jail trying to interfere in baseball and how he murdered her uncle. Although she gained some respect and was called Latorious, the hate and envy was still there for Ziane. People wished her dead. They called her terrible names. She was the most hated female in sports. They would shout at her for her to lose. But the more people would shout the more Ziane would put on baseball armor from within as well as physically on the outside. In other words, she kept on playing baseball and tuning out the noise. Lady Ziane kept on playing and helping her team to win.

Some of the men in baseball began to envy Lady Ziane too. But some of them wanted her to play on the men's team with them.

Some of the broadcasters sometimes had things to say about Ziane with jokes. They couldn't stand to see an outstanding female like Zion in sports.

Ziane began to turn her head towards training and owning a team of her own. But in the meantime, she kept on her baseball armor to protect herself from all the hate that was being thrown at her.

The Green Bay Packers, the team that has the most wins all time! Hello I'm Gail Nobles on EPS. Which NFL team has the most wins all time? The Green Bay Packers have the most wins by a team with 792 wins. They are a football team based in Green Bay, Wisconsin.

The Packers have won 13 league championships, the most in NFL history, with nine pre-Super Bowl NFL titles and four Super Bowl victories. The Packers won the first two Super Bowls in 1966 and 1967 and were the only NFL team to defeat the American Football League (AFL) prior to the AFL–NFL merger. The Vince Lombardi Trophy is named after the Packers' coach Vince Lombardi, who guided them to their first two Super Bowls. Following Lombardi’s retirement, the team struggled through the 1970s and 1980s. The turning point came in the start of the 1990s, and since then the team has enjoyed much regular-season success, making the playoffs 22 times since 1993.

Good evening. There's another kind of football on the rise. It’s the Women's Fag Football. You can see women running on the field, but the sport looks just as exciting as the men's. And I'm not just saying that because I'm a female. If you're a female and you want to play football, you can do it. It's about time. It's not just a man's sport.


I played flag football before way back in my school days during PE. It's fun to play; very fun sport to play. I don't remember getting hurt.

According to the news, women's flag football is coming to the Olympics. Fag football is officially an Olympic sport starting 2028.

Good evening. There's another kind of football on the rise. It’s the Women's Fag Football. You can see women running on the field, but the sport looks just as exciting as the men's. And I'm not just saying that because I'm a female. If you're a female and you want to play football, you can do it. It's about time. It's not just a man's sport.


I played flag football before way back in my school days during PE. It's fun to play; very fun sport to play. I don't remember getting hurt.

According to the news, women's flag football is coming to the Olympics. Fag football is officially an Olympic sport starting 2028.

Hello everyone thank you for turning tuning into EPS. I'm Gail Nobles. Everybody's talking about football. Ñow is the time to talk about Damontae Kazee. You’ll hear a past on the phone interview With Demontae Kazee, but first I want to say this…

He ia a football safety for the Pittsburgh Steelers of the National Football League (NFL). He was drafted by the Atlanta Falcons in the fifth round of the 2017 NFL Draft. He played college football at San Diego State.

Kazee was selected by the Atlanta Falcons in the fifth round (149th overall) of the 2017 NFL Draft.

On May 9, 2017, the Atlanta Falcons signed Kazee to a four-year, $2.68 million contract with a signing bonus of $288,922.

He made his professional regular season debut in the Atlanta Falcons' season-opener at the Chicago Bears and made two solo tackles and forced a fumble in their 23–17 victory. On October 1, 2017, Kazee earned his first career start after Ricardo Allen was unable to play after suffering a concussion the previous week. He finished the Falcons' 23–17 loss to the Buffalo Bills with a season-high nine combined tackles and a forced fumble. He finished the season with 23 combined tackles (14 solo) and two forced fumbles in one start and 16 games.

That was Damontae Kazee on the phone with DJ Shockley shortly after he was selected in 2017 by the Falcons.

Dominique Rodgers Cromartie is a former professional football player who was a cornerback for 11 years in the National Football League (NFL). He played college football for the Tennessee State Tigers, and was selected by the Arizona Cardinals in the first round of the 2008 NFL Draft. Rodgers-Cromartie has also played for the Philadelphia Eagles, Denver Broncos, New York Giants, Oakland Raiders, and Washington Redskins. He was selected for the Pro Bowl in 2009 and 2015. In 2023, Rodgers-Cromartie became the most notable free agent in A7FL history, joining the Tampa Nightcrawlers for their playoff run.

I haven't seen Dominique. I saw the A7FL headlines that he and the Nightcrawlers made A7FL game of the week debut as they took on the O-Town Orange to decide the Florida division championship.

I wonder how someone from the NFL feels with no pads and no helmet. He ought to feel comfortable without all the stuff and feel good and free about moving.

Ashante Worthy dodges, steps in one direction, and swirls around to another! He’s running down the football field like the speed of lightning! Touchdown!

Hello! I'm Gail Nobles! Welcome to EPS. Today’s topic is #3 Ashante Worthy. I'm really excited about A7FL football and some of the players I've seen. Earlier in the podcast, I talked about Karnell Wactor on the BIC team. Today it's Ashante Worthy from the BIC team.

I'm thinking about week six 2023 when BIC was playing against Silk City Animals. The announcer warned everyone for the tight end to hold on to their butts. He mentioned Ashante Worthy and what he was about to do. Ashante was trying to cut through some players. It took three players to hold him. The other announcer mentioned how Ashante looked a lot stronger than he did the year before. I thought he's just strong.

Ashante is not only strong, but he fakes his moves. When you think he's going to go on in one direction, he goes to another. And he's fast like the speed of lightning. I saw all these things in the first quarter 7 to 0 Silk City Animals. But BIC won the game. It was 64 to 13 BIC.

According to A7FL.com, Worthy’s position is wide receiver. He has the right position. He’s good at catching the ball and running down the field quickly.

The Tampa Nightcrawlers looks like a great team. I watched the A7FL 2023 Championship when they played against the Las Vegas Insomniacs. They lost against them, but not that many points. It was 50 to 46 Las Vegas Insomniacs. Both teams were tough.

The Tampa Nightcrawlers stayed at the score of six for a long time in the game until the Insomniacs made a touchdown and tied the game at the first quarter 6-6. There were six minutes left in the game. Then the Insomniacs took the one point lead 7 to 6.

As I kept watching the game, I thought the Nightcrawlers were going to win. It was 32 to 20 Nightcrawlers. In the third quarter, they were staying ahead.Then the game was tied again 32 to 32 a 1:13.

And in the fourth quarter, the Ñightcrawlers tried to stay ahead, but the Insomniacs caught up and won the game.

Although the Insomniacs are number one, I still can see that the Tampa Nightcrawlers are a great team. They are tough to play against. They have a strength to leave a team behind in score. If a team is weak, the Nightcrawlers can win.

Like the Insomniacs, you really have to play hard to take the lead because the Nightcrawlers can creep and steal the game.

Hello! I'm Gail Nobles. I've seen something that I have never seen before in football this year. I've seen a player on the BIC team (number 22) and another player last night on the A7FL website throw a back pass behind the back. I'm just finding out about it, and it was a big deal to me when I found out because I've never seen anything like that before in the history of football. Out of all the highlights in football, I've never seen a player make a back pass behind the back. You’ve got to have some strong arms to do that considering the distance the ball is thrown. I don't think I could do it. I've never tried. I don't know how heavy the football is.

It is said in the headlines that Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes stunned NFL fans when they saw him make a behind the back pass in training camp. Evidentily, the back pass must not have been seen that much. I mentioned it to two uncles. They have watched football all their lives, and they didn't know what I was talking about. They asked: Who has done that?” To a lot of us it may be something new, and I've seen it start with the A7FL.

All of you guys that watch regular football, you've got to check out A7FL football. Start watching it. I'm serious. it's some things going on.The A7FL is awesome. Ladies, you need to watch too.

If you have never seen the behind the back passbefore, go to a7fl.com and look for an article by Sener Korkusuz. Look for the article written on September 9, 2019. Alsaiah Gross throws perfect behind the back pass for PAT. a7fl.com is where you want to go to learn about what's going on in the A7FL. You can also follow A7FL on YouTube, Facebook, and Twitter.

Story by: Gail Nobles ©️ 2023
Cover Art by: Gail Nobles

When Ziane saw that she had enemies, she grew close to another sports female player who played basketball. Her name was Resurren. She taught Ziane some things about how to play basketball, and Ziane taught Resurren some things about baseball. However Ziane was better at playing baseball and Resurren was better at playing basketball. They played with the guys on the playground in both sports for fun in their spare time together.

Resurren told Ziane about the middle man on the playground and how he mistreated her. Ziane told Resurren that she made a wise choice to play ball for her school.

She said to Resurren: You don’t need the middle man to help you do anything. Stay in school, and when you finish school, I can help you.

Resurren told Ziane it would take forever because she was just a freshman in high school. Ziane laughed and told her again to stay in school. Ziane was like a big sister to Resurren, and Resurren was like a little sister to Ziane. She helped her to keep her mind off troublesome things.

Ziane grew up around a family of notorious crime lords. They were her uncles and male cousins, but she stayed away from them, and hung tight with her mother and father. Especially her father. Like her father, she knew how to create and make things happen. Ziane was very brilliant, and her father warned her not to use her knowledge for evil. Ziane lived in Side Mount City, and there was nothing but crime. Nobody bothered Ziane because everyone knew her family.

When people feared Ziane, it wasn’t because she was dangerous. They feared her because she was brilliant. When she became known in baseball, the gangsters on the street began to call her Latorious.

But there was a crime lord in the city who did not know Ziane’s family. He had one of her uncles murdered. When he came into the city, crime was bigger than it ever was. Ziane moved her mother and father out of the city.

Ziane had became so popular in women’s baseball that she was seen on the news by the crime lord at a bar. When the crime lord saw how well Ziane could play, he wanted to own the baseball team. He had been told that she was the niece of the man that he murdered. The crime lord kept his eyes glued on the television to watch Ziane.

He said: Hmmm? She plays better than the men.

The crime lord wanted to own a sports channel for women and film the female baseball players. He saw that he could make a business using Ziane’s baseball talent. He talked about it in the bar sipping on his drink and the word got back to Ziane. It spreaded around to the entire whole sport of baseball. There were men in the sport that wanted to protect Ziane.
The crime lord received threats from male baseball players that he should leave Side Mount City. That was strike one for him. The crime lord owned a male men’s baseball team back in his hometown. He challenged the number one top male team in Side Mount City of baseball to play against his team.

He said: If I lose, I will leave Side Mount City.

When Ziane heard the crime lord’s words, she felt that there would be a terrible and dangerous war for the sport of baseball and her city. She warned the baseball team not to play against the crime lord’s team.

But it was a war that was already won before it began. There were City people rising up against the crime lord and his gang that took over their city. That was strike 2. The word got back to the mayor of the city how the crime lord and his gang had Ziane’s uncle murdered and how a game war was about to happen. That was strike 3. The mayor of the city had the crime lord arrested, but his men got away. It was written in the Morning Riselines and Lady Ziane Richardson was then named The Latorious Ziane.

Like her father, she knew how to create and make things happen. Ziane was very brilliant, and her father warned her not to use her knowledge for evil. Ziane lived in Side Mount City, and there was nothing but crime. Nobody bothered Ziane because everyone knew her family.

When people feared Ziane, it wasn’t because she was dangerous. They feared her because she was brilliant. When she became known in baseball, the gangsters on the street began to call her Latorious.

But there was a crime lord in the city who did not know Ziane’s family. He had one of her uncles murdered. When he came into the city, crime was bigger than it ever was. Ziane moved her mother and father out of the city.

Ziane had became so popular in women’s baseball that she was seen on the news by the crime lord at a bar. When the crime lord saw how well Ziane could play, he wanted to own the baseball team. He had been told that she was the niece of the man that he murdered. The crime lord kept his eyes glued on the television to watch Ziane.

He said: Hmmm? She plays better than the men.

The crime lord wanted to own a sports channel for women and film the female baseball players. He saw that he could make a business using Ziane’s baseball talent. He talked about it in the bar sipping on his drink and the word got back to Ziane. It spreaded around to the entire whole sport of baseball. There were men in the sport that wanted to protect Ziane.
The crime lord received threats from male baseball players that he should leave Side Mount City. That was strike one for him. The crime lord owned a male men’s baseball team back in his hometown. He challenged the number one top male team in Side Mount City of baseball to play against his team.

He said: If I lose, I will leave Side Mount City.

When Ziane heard the crime lord’s words, she felt that there would be a terrible and dangerous war for the sport of baseball and her city. She warned the baseball team not to play against the crime lord’s team.

But it was a war that was already won before it began. There were City people rising up against the crime lord and his gang that took over their city. That was strike 2. The word got back to the mayor of the city how the crime lord and his gang had Ziane’s uncle murdered and how a game war was about to happen. That was strike 3. The mayor of the city had the crime lord arrested, but his men got away. It was written in the Morning Riselines and Lady Ziane Richardson was then named The Latorious...]]>406baseball,baseballtales,characters,fiction,fictionstories,sports,sportstales,stories,talesfalsefullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/karnell-wactor-9-30-23-6-46-pm--57006699Story by: Gail Nobles

The New Jersey defensive player of 2021 if I'm not mistaken, Karnell Wactor. He played on the Trenton BIC team. His position: Tight end defensive tackle. His number: # 23.

I hated that I'm just tuning into A7FL football. I miss some great games. I'm just seeing some great players from the past and the present. But there are a few video clips of Karnell Wactor, and I must say he knows how to tackle. He knows how to play defensively in football.

Seeing players like Karnell is what the action is all about and the action is constant on the field I don't notice the timeouts because of all the action and fast moving pace. I don't get bored. When I watched Karnell Wactor on some past clips, I saw more of him as a player playing the game.

There are seven players on the team, and I think you can recognize the individual players better that wa. A7FL is a mystery. I see less injuries compared to regular football.

I saw Karnell wrestling another player on a team to the ground. He’s kind of a big guy, and no one was hurt. Karnell moves fast down the field. After Karnell, I'm still seeing great players in 2023, and I don't want to miss them in 2024.

Good evening. Today I'd like to talk about Freda George Forman. After learning about Muhammad Ali's daughter, Laila, I had to find out if there were more boxing women in women's boxing like her. I was visiting womenboxing.com you could write in and contact your favorite fighter. Things are different now.


Since Muhammad Ali had a daughter boxing, I had to find out if George Foreman had a daughter boxing because Laila Ali fought Joe Frazier's daughter Jackie Frazier. Both of them were strong and tough fighters, and I thought: there must be more.

I began to do research and sure enough George Forman had a daughter in boxing name Freeda I learned that she had a fight against Laquanda Landers back in the year of 2000. I thought: I miss the fight. Freeda knocked down Laquanda twice and won the fight.

During that time, Freeda felt confident that she would have a fight against Laila Ali. Her goal was to knock her out and it wasn't about hate. I was just learning about women's boxing and it was beginning to be popular, and I would have loved to have seen Freeda and Laila box eachother, but that was a fight that never happened.

Then there was a fight Freeda Foreman had against Rachel Pembleton. Another fight I missed in the year of 2000. Freeda looked better and better in the ring. She won the fight against Rachel.

In 2001 Freda fought an opponent named Evelyn Rodriguez. Freeda lost that fight. It was her first lost according to the news. It was overwhelming to Freeda Foreman that she lost in her hometown. She said it wouldn't stop her. The fight was in Civic Center in Humble,Texas. Freeda retired a year later after losing the fight. In my opinionoverall, Freeda was doing quite well. Foreman won her first five bouts before losing a year later.

But in the meantime, in 2001, I was learning about Laila Ali. I didn't hear anything else about Freeda. I have missed a lot of Laila’s fights and saw none of Freeda’s fights. I don't remember seeing women's boxing on television at all until Laila Ali fought Jackie Frazier. I saw the fight in Georgia at my uncle’s house. He had cable TV.

Because I didn't hear anymore about Freeda Foreman and Jackie Frazier after losing the fight to Leila, I began to write into womenboxing.com. I wrote in to get a response from Freeda. I told her my thoughts and feelings about how women's boxing needs more television attention. My response from Freeda was to remember that all good things take time. She said there are a few women fighting today, but they are doing enormous things. They are opening the doors for tomorrow.

I began to write Freeda Foreman on social media in 2012. That’s when I learned how intelligent she was. Everyone was writing her it seemed. You would certainly get an answer from her. During that time, she had a website. I miss FreedaForeman. She left us in 2019. When I think of women's boxing, I always think of her.

Hello I'm Gail Nobles. Today I want to talk about the BIC versus Renegades’ game in the A7FL 2023 regular season. It was 6-0 BIC in the first quarter. There were seven men on both teams. At 1:56, Renegades made a touchdown, and then it was tied 6-6. Somebody on Renegades’ team throws the ball and a teammate catches it which made the game 7 to 6, Renegades. Then the next thing I know, BIC makes a touchdown right after that which made the game 12-7, BIC in the first quarter.

According to A7FL, the touchdown is worth 6 points. After a team scores a touchdown, they may attempt either a one point conversion (a single offensive play to get into the end zone from the 5 yard line) or a two point conversion (a single offensive play from the 10 yard line). According to a7fl.com, there is no kicking in the A7FL. So if you want to know what's really going on about the rules of the game, a7fl.com/rules/.

In the 2nd quarter, 18-7 BIC at 3:30 sec. On the BIC team , a player throws the ball down the field behind his back and his teammate catches it. Quickily 20-7 BIC at 3:33 sec.

I sure would like to know who that was. I heard the announcer yell out the name K-wack. It must have been him that threw the ball behind his back. Kyle Ward made the reception.

I'm going to move on now to the 4rth quarter. 27-14 BIC. Renegades scores 20 points in the 4rth quarter 44 sec. BIC wins 27-20.

Hi, I am Gail Nobles. You're listening to EPS. Today I want to talk about A7FL football. Who’s watching A7FL football? It is a semi--professional league in the United States which plays a seven-man version of gridiron football called American 7s Football. Launched in 2015, its games are played without football helmets or other protective equipment. The A7FL is the only organized level of competition in American 7s football.

League players are not paid during the season and most of them are primarily amateurs. Instead cash prizes are awarded to division and national champs (divided among the roster of roughly 25 players). For the 2022 season the prize pool was $50,000.

So who are some of the best players in the A7FL? There is a 2023 individual award winner which is Quatrell Huffin. He is the league most valuable player.

Mark Bagway is the offensive player of the year of 2023.

Trey Baskerville is the defensive player of 2023.

Savion Cunningham is the best returner of 2023.

Scott “Scooter” Hamilton is the rookie of the year 2023.

A 7FL seems to move a little faster to me than NFL football but that's just my opinion. The players look like they run faster or something. Maybe it's just my eyeballs. They look so free when they run. Looks like they have more space and they look like they spread out more.
If you're not watching A7FL, check it out and let's see what you think.

You’re listening to EPS. Im your host, Gail Nobles.

Hello, I'm Gail Nobles, and you're listening to EPS. For those that don't know, (AFC) is one of the two conferences of the National Football League (NFL), the highest professional level of American football in the United States. The AFC and its counterpart, the National Football Conference (NFC), each contain 16 teams with 4 divisions.

In the NFC, The Philadelphia Eagles are on top, and in the AFC, Kansas City Chiefs are on top as far as Championship odds. Of course you know things can change when it comes to sports. There is always constant change. Teams are constantly playing winning and losing. As far as I can see, the Chiefs and the Eagles are on top right now. This is a football brief message.

What's going on in the horse race world today? Brightwork is a winner! Brightwork is a racehorse in the news. She is a two-year-old filly trained by John Ortiz and on by Wss racing outlasting odds on favorite ways and means in the grade one $300,000 Spanaway steaks for two-year-old fillies at Saratoga on Sunday. That’s today. Sunday, September 3, 2023.

The Spanaway Stakes is an American thoroughbred horse race run annually at Saratoga race course in Saratoga Springs, New York. Open to two-year-old fillies, it is a Grade 1 event contested at a distance of seven for a long (1408 metres) on dirt.

In horse racing, the term “ways and means” refers to the different strategies with tactics employed by jockeys or trainers to achieve success in a race. It could be anything that can influence a horses performance and chances of winning like race strategy, timing, and paste.

But yeah, Brightwork is the winner in the news under jockey Irad Ortiz Junior, a Puerto Rican jockey who has been a leading rider in the New York thoroughbred horse racing circuit since 2012.

Hi I am Gail Nobles and it's story time on EPS. I'd like to share with you a little illustration about a female baseball winner named Lady Ziane Richardson. She played on a team called the Astrons. Richardson helped to win many games sliding home and hitting home runs. She played so well that the men and wanted her on their team.

There was a popular newspaper called The Morning Riselines that published lady Ziane Richardson and made her front page news. It read: Lady Ziane Richardson slides home. The Astrons win against the County Crows 3-2. The team buries Richardson. The team takes a champagne bath.

But Richardson had another life besides the life of baseball. She was winning too much for some people. Some of the girls from the other baseball teams tried to pick fights with Richardson on the baseball field. Even part of her own team was starting to show a little envy towards Richardson because they knew she was the best on the team.

Hi I am Gail Nobles and it's story time on EPS. I'd like to share with you a little illustration about a female baseball winner named Lady Ziane Richardson. She played on a team called the Astrons. Richardson helped to win many games sliding home and hitting home runs. She played so well that the men and wanted her on their team.

There was a popular newspaper called The Morning Riselines that published lady Ziane Richardson and made her front page news. It read: Lady Ziane Richardson slides home. The Astrons win against the County Crows 3-2. The team buries Richardson. The team takes a champagne bath.

But Richardson had another life besides the life of baseball. She was winning too much for some people. Some of the girls from the other baseball teams tried to pick fights with Richardson on the baseball field. Even part of her own team was starting to show a little envy towards Richardson because they knew she was the best on the team.

How many of you are going through something like that today? I'll be back with more of the story. It will continue, but in the meantime, keep your head up, and let's keep the ball rolling.

Story and Cover Art by: Gail Nobles

Hi! I'm Gail Nobles on EPS. I haven't talked about streetball in a while. I want to talk about Streetball Legend Ed Booger Smith. I heard him talk about his love for the game of basketball and how he tried to survive. I heard Ed talk about playing with Michael Jordan. He talked about what his career could have been. From my understanding, he's a great streetball legend but didn't play in the NBA.

When I listen to Ed, it makes me think about things two ways. If he had played for the NBA, things might would have been good for him. On the other hand, things might would have been bad for him. Sometimes we think it's a bad thing when we miss an opportunity, and sometimes it's not a bad thing. It might be in God’s will that sometimes things don't happen for us. Sometimes God can see things that could happen in our lives that we don't see.

If Ed had went to the NBA, he might would have made some good friends or a lot of bad enemies. It didn't sound like people were on Ed’s side while trying to make it when I heard his story. There is always going to be some jealousy and people that try to hold you back.

Somebody could have helped Ed. Somebody understood Ed and knew how to help him. Someone knew he had a gift, but people don't always do what they say they are going to do.

I'm just glad that Ed stayed alive and became a great streetball legend. He can make others a streetball legend or help them to become what he didn’t. God didn't put us on earth for nothing. God can use Ed, and when God uses you, and you overcome and do what you're supposed to do, he will reward you. Ed has already made it as far as being a great streetball legend. Some can't get as far as that, and some that can chooses not to be in the NBA. They love Streetball. I love watching Streetball better than I do watching the NBA.

Ed Smith may have made some mistakes in his life when he was very young like anyone else. Yes, he could have made it to the NBA, but I think that if it were in God's will, he would have gotten there. It may be that God had a bigger plan and better one. Never give up. If Ed is still around, he's older and should be wiser now. Sometimes that's when good things happen.

It is said that those who saw Booger play in his prime claim he was an NBA level playmaker. He grew up playing against top NBA point guards like Rod Strickland, Rafter Alston, and Kenny Anderson.

Ed Booger Smith is a streetball player from Brooklyn, New York. He played point guard. He is best known for being featured in the 1997 documentary ‘Sole In The Hole’ when he was 17 years old. Smith is also one of a few Streetballers who have ever appeared on the cover of a magazine Sports illustrated. See, they could see that he was great. Smith is known for his dribbling and passing abilities from the little clip that I have seen of him playing basketball. He was very fast. I'm sure that he could have played in the NBA.

How many of you know about stickball? How many of you have played stick ball? Stickball is pretty much like baseball. It is a street game and also includes bases. It is played in large cities like New York city and Philadelphia. You play it with a broom handle and rubber ball. I've seen players toss the ball into the air and hit it on the way down or after one or more bounces. There are still people that play stickball.

In the past, according to history, legendary all star Willie Mays played stickball in Harlem when he was a New York Giant in the 1950s.

Have you heard about The Jersey Stickball Titans? They are a stickball team originally known as the Jersey City Saints stickball team. The team was originally formed by Pete Carrion Sr. Now his son Pete Carrion Jr. That’s pretty much all I know about the team. There’s a clip of them playing stickball on YouTube. Look for: Bronx Legacy VS. New Jersey Titans: Rondo Hits a Game Winning Sac Fly Stickball. They make stickball look like so much fun.

I haven't seen any films on Rufus the talking or being interviewed but there is one quote I've read by Rube Foster.

He said: Do not worry. Try to appear jolly and Iconcerned. I have smiled often with the bases full with two strikes and three balls on the batter. This seems to unnerve.

He was an American pitcher outfielder and manager for the Kansas City Monarchs in the Negro baseball leagues from 1922 1938. Renowned as a two-way player who could both hit and pitch successfully, one statistical compilation shows Rogan winning more games than any other pitcher in Negro leagues history and ranking fourth highest in career batting average. He was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1998.

Rogan's early baseball career took place in the U.S. Army, where he played for a famous team in the all-black 25th Infantry. After joining the Kansas City Monarchs, he was the top pitcher and one of the best hitters on a team that won three pennants from 1923 to 1925 and the 1924 Colored World Series. He became a playing manager in 1926 and led his team to another league title in 1929.

Today's topic: Ghost Ballers VS Three Headed Monsters.

It was season six week six. Brandon Moss knows how to hustle. I call him the hustler. He’s on the big3’s Three Headed Monster’s team. He’s strong in the air in making slam dunks.


I watched the Three Headed Monsters play against the Ghost Ballers. I noticed another great player on the Baller’s his team. His name is Mike Taylor. I heard the announcer say he's a rhythm player and confident player. Taylor is great in shooting 3’s. Ghost Baller’s dominated the first half 25 to 10.But Moss kept going to the rim in the second half. It was 44 to 30 Ghost Ballers.

Reggie Evans looks like Shaq on the Three Headed Monsters team. It was like one on one between Reggie Evans and Mike Taylor. Mike kept Reggie from making his shot 46 to 32. Ghost Ballers.

Later it's 51 to 37. Ghost Ballers win.

Allen Iverson Nicknamed "the Answer", he played 14 seasons in the National Basketball Association (NBA) at both the shooting guard and point guard positions. Iverson won NBA Rookie of the Year Award in 1997 and was an 11-time NBA All-Star, won the All-Star game MVP award in 2001 and 2005, and was the NBA's Most Valuable Player (MVP) in 2001. He was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 2016. In October 2021, he was named to the NBA 75th Anniversary Team.[3] Iverson is often regarded as one of the greatest scorers and one of the most influential players in NBA history. He officially retired in Oct. 2013. But Allen Iverson also done coaching in the Big3 basketball league. Iverson has done a lot of crossovering in his career. What I mean by that is he accomplished a lot.

Now, I'd like to talk about Allen Iverson’s crossover against Jordan. Iverson bounced the ball between his legs as Jordan stood guarding him, and the ball went out of his left hand to his right, and he made the shot over Jordan. Allen Iverson was a fan of Michael Jordan's but Iverson’s ability to cross Jordan should have told him something. Yes we have our heroes and are inspired by them. Basketball talent wasn't given to just one man. Heroes are incredible, and you can be somebody's hero too. Michael Jordan played his way outstanding, and Allen Iverson played his way outstanding. There is only one Michael Jordan and there's only one Allen Iverson which brought great competition to the NBA.

Hi! I'm Gail Nobles! today I want to talk about the basketball arena video game. The first time I played I couldn't win. I had a hard time winning. You have to move at the right time. The game lets you get a little practice before starting the game on the moves. You have to practice and keep up with the moves of your opponent so you can know what to do.

The second time I played I surprisingly won 9-7. The third time I played it was 13- 7. I won again. I was getting better and better, but they got all those daily rewards and things for you to collect. I just like to play and win games. You have to go back and play every day to get rewards and all that. I like to stop when I'm tired and pick up where I left off.

I think multiple players can play the game. It’s an all star season. I might decide to go back again one day and give it another shot. That little man was beating me up at the beginning. He even slam dunked on me. That’s something I never got to do in the game on him. It was almost like it was real. That little man could play ball. He was tough. I got to show him.

ABA the (American basketball Association) was a major men's professional basketball league from 1967 to 1976. The ABA cease to exist with the ABA-NBA merger in 1976 leading to four ABA teams joining the NBA and to the introduction of the three-point shot in the NBA in 1979.

Moses Malone played in the ABA and in the NBA from 1974 through 1995. A Center, he was named the NBA Most Valuable Player three times, was a 12 time NBA All-Star, and an eight time All NBA Team selection. Malone the Philadelphia 76ers to an NBA championship in 1983 winning both the league and finals MVP. He was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in his first year of eligibility in 2001. Widely regarded as one of the greatest players in the sports history, Malone is also seen as one of the most underrated NBA players.

Malone began his professional career out of high school after he was elected in the third round of the 1974 ABA draft by the Utah Stars. He was named an ABA all-star as a rookie and played two seasons in the league until it merged with the NBA in 1976.

Lets talk about Malones ABA career.

Hello I'm Gail Nobles, and I'm going to talk about Ice Cubes Big3 basketball. When the game came on CBS, the first Big3 team that caught my eye was Trilogy. They were playing against the team call Power. Power won the game on July 9, 2023. The game was on the air on a Sunday. I talked about the game live on the sister podcast EPS Inside Look. The game is new to me, and I'm just learning about the teams and players.

The Trilogy team has a talented player I have never seen and heard of before. His name is Ryan Carter. I just noticed him for season 6 week 4. The Trilogy was playing against the team 3 Headed Monsters, and the Trilogy team won the game 50 to 36.

On the 3 Headed Monsters' team, I'm learning who Brandon Moss is. He falls down, goes after the ball, and works hard to get the ball in the basket spinning and makes a shot.

Ryan Carter goes underneath and makes his shot in the first half. 21 to 24 Trilogy.

Both teams had a player that caught my eye. Ryan Carter made a big three, and the game was over for the second half. The 3 Headed Monsters 36 points and Trilogy 50 points. You’re listening to EPS.

I'm your host, Gail Nobles.

Resurren was a good girl but at the same time she was a bad girl because she lived in a city called Crime City. There was plenty of killing, stealing, gambling, shooting, and things were going on that was illegal. Sometimes Resurren stole food and money when someone pulled a gun on her. She learned from her father how to take it from a man's hands to use it at Ballpark Playground.


Resurren was miss treated by the middleman. She wanted to leave the playground, but the other ball players begged her to stay. The middleman name was Jack. He helped the boys in the streets to get into college to play ball. He try to make Resurren feel like she would never make it.

So she began to lean more towards going to school. Resurren didn't like school and sometimes she wouldn't show up. She thought it was boring, but she was a very bright student and a freshman. All she wanted to do was play ball. To keep from getting kicked out of school, she attended more to play basketball for the school. The high school team was weak, but Resurren made it number one in basketball tournaments. The Cobras finally became state champions. The team loved and admired Resurren. They began to call her Rezza for short.

Abbott and Costello performing "Who's on First?" Old Time Radio

"Who's on First?" is a comedy routine made famous by American comedy duo Abbott and Costello. The premise of the sketch is that Abbott is identifying the players on a baseball team for Costello. However, the players' names can simultaneously serve as the basis for questions (e.g., "Who is the first baseman?") and responses (e.g., "The first baseman's name is Who."), leading to repeated misinterpretations and growing frustration between the performers.

There was a 19-year-old girl name Resurren. Her mother thought she was a stillborn. And just when she was about to give up, that's when Resurren cried. Her mother named her that name thinking of the resurrection of Christ.

Resurren grew and as she grew her whole life depended on basketball. It was all she had. Resurren ignored the middleman on the playground to make it. She was on the playground with the guys wanting to get away from the outdoor courts of the world and go higher. The middleman gave her a hard time because she was a female. Resurren had special skills and techniques that he had never seen before on the ballpark playground. He only rewarded her with sporty hats,shirts, and shoes, but she wanted a scolarship.

She thought: The middleman don't want me to make it. How can I make it?”

Resurren began to think on 1 John 4:4 You’re of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.

Streetball

Have you ever seen or heard of the double dunk? I've never seen a player double dunk before. Have you ever heard of a man that played basketball name Earl Manigualt? According to Wikipedia, he was an American Street basketball player who was nicknamed “The Goat” or “The Lip”. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest basketball players to never play in the NBA. To dunk a ball then dunk it in again before coming back down sounds hot I believe he was one of the greatest.


Earl was born in Charleston South Carolina and raised in Harlem New York. Manigualt was particularly famous for his leaping abilities on the basketball court much of his legend is unsupported playground myth including his signature move the double dunk. He allegedly would dunk the ball, catch it with his left hand, switch the ball to his right hand, bring it back around to the top of the basket and jam it through again, all done while still in the air on a single jump and without hanging on the rim. This is a story repeatedly told but unconfirmed. It was refuted by Manigualt himself in a CNN interview available on YouTube when he called the reports of this feat rubbish, stating not even the goat could do that. I wonder why he said that. I believe he did it, and it has been said that Kareem Abdul-Jabbar knew him and said he was the goat. Earl Manigualt played with Kareem and other players such as Earl Monroe & Connie Hawkins.

Like all the street basketball as of the day such as Jackie Jackson, Manigualt was reportedly able to touch the top of the backboard to retrieve quarters and dollar bills.

Manigualt passed away from congestive heart failure in 1998 at the age of 53. Although he never played in the NBA and only briefly played in college, the legend of Manigualt has spread far and wide and led to his play being glorified in magazines books and movies. In 1996 HBO aired a TV movie about Manigualt’s life entitled “Rebound: The Legend of Earl “The Goat” Manigault.


I sure would have loved to see him do that Double Dunk. I'm Gail Nobles, and you're listening to EPS.

Amazing Ice Cube - Big3

The legendary rapper and actor Ice Cube is the cofounder of a three on three basketball league. That’s amazing! The man is smart. The league consist of 12 teams whose rosters include both former NBA players and international players. The rules of big three games contain deviations from the official rules of three on three basketball as administered by FIBA that's international basketball Federation. It is an association of national organizations which governs the sport of basketball worldwide.

The rules of fireball3, the basketball variant played by big three differ from FIBA sanctioned three on three games. There are a lot of rules listed and explained on Wikipedia.

During the 2017 and 2018 seasons players on the 30 years were not eligible to compete in the league in 2019 the league change the minimum age to 27 years and in 2021 the minimum age was lowered again to 22.

For 2023 Big3 launched Big3TV to scream all its games on its own website internationally and all games not televised on CBS in the United States

I've watched some highlights on the big three win Trilogy took on 3s company. It was some highlights from five years ago from Fox Sports. To me, the game looks just as exciting as the NBA. There are just less players on a team than the NBA.

Ice Cube always did seem intelligent. He’s doing big things with his life and I'm glad. I'll be watching, checking, and listening out more for the Big3.

Good afternoon. I'm Gail nobles. Today I'm going to talk about Wembanyama. He can really take the ball to the hoop he can really throw it down. Wemby can take onto defenders according to what I have seen.

Victor Wembanyama is a French professional basketball player for the San Antonio Spurs of the NBA. He was selected first overall by the spurs in the 2023 NBA draft. With a list of high of 7'5" inches, Wembanyama is the tallest NBA player tallest NBA player.

According to Wikipedia, Wembanyama is widely regarded as one of the greatest NBA prospects of his generation, and many publications have called him the most anticipated prospect since LeBron James in 2003.

People talk about Wembanyama like he's super human and something that you've never seen before. I'm hearing rumors on YouTube that he's not human and that he is able to guard the court at one time looking at the highlights. People always question people that are able to do things no one has ever done before. What I see is a blessed athletic male player. Maybe he is given something that is not given to anyone else. That can happen. It has happened before.

The shuffle was given to Muhammad Ali. No one has done it the way he has. Sometimes you can be blessed to have something no one else has ever had. It’s not impossible. I’d like to say good luck to Victor Wembanyama.

Victor Wembanyama! Never seen anyone like him before! Super human!

Elly De La Cruz. I just happened to be in the Google new searching for baseball. I saw Elly’s name and photo for baseball. He plays on the Cincinnati Red’s team. A day ago I saw that he made baseball history with July 4 performance against the Washington Nationals. Elly De La Cruz is a rookie. I'm just learning about him but it looks like he's been doing well the whole time. I've heard about his speed and fast career home run. He has his first career triple. He recorded the fastest sprint speed in MLB this year 2023 in that triple.

Do you wanna know something? Elly is doing so well that he's been questioned. What I mean about that is they gave him a bat check, and it sure wasn't because he was not doing well. Elly has a knob on his bat that got approved by major-league baseball. It is said that De La Cruz has used it since 2021 and that he likes the feel of his plastic cover. Then what’s the problem? According to Dela Cruz, the knob on his bat is just a sensor. It’s something that he feels comfortable with. I would say more about the bat check but I won't. According to the news, Elly De La Cruz hits a 455-foot home run after the bat check.

Sterling Freeman "Scoot" Henderson is now a professional basketball player for the Portland Trail Blazers of the NBA. At age 17, Henderson signed with the Ignite after graduating early from high school and became the youngest player in G League history. In his second season, he was selected as a captain of the G League Next Up Game. Henderson was drafted as the 3rd pick in the 2023 NBA draft by the Blazers.

Henderson can jump high for an alley-oop. He can steal the ball and slam. He can make things happen on the court with his team. I wouldn’t want to be in his way while slamming. Henderson slams hard and can shoot 3 pointers. There’s nothing on the court he can’t do, He’s big and strong. So when you see Scoot Henderson, you know it’s showtime. Showtime Scoot Henderson. That’s what I call him. He’s very energetic. He can bounce the ball behind his back, do lay-ups, he can steal, he has the jump-shot, he can reverse, move around, lay a ball in, he can move fast, and make rebounds, Henderson doesn’t slow down. He’s all over the court making it to the rim and falling down under it.

We don’t need every player to be the same because everybody can’t be a Michael Jordan. There might be somebody out there that can play better than him. I think the players should be allowed to be different.

Hello! I'm Gail Nobles
Today's topic is Many Arms on EPS.

You have got to be tough in the National Hockey League. Hockey sticks swing hard and pucks fly everywhere. It’s an obstacle game, and life is full of obstacles.

I come to tell you a story. There was a man that played hockey. His teammates called him Many Arms, and his arms were very strong. Many arms moved so quickly and was an aggressive player. He was a fighter and hitter. There were major and minor penalties for the player. He moved as if he had four arms altogether. Many Arms fought hard in the game. His hair was usually spiked, and he wore a mean look on his face. It was a giant war on ice, and Many Arms never wore a helment. He was trapped inside an ancient world in his mind playing hockey. Many Arms remained a great warrior that way winning many games. But there were times he felt himself slowing down with age wanting to retire. Many Arms really only had two arms whenever he grew tired and needed rest.

Hello! I'm Gail Nobles
Today's topic is Many Arms on EPS.

You have got to be tough in the National Hockey League. Hockey sticks swing hard and pucks fly everywhere. It’s an obstacle game, and life is full of obstacles.

I come to tell you a story. There was a man that played hockey. His teammates called him Many Arms, and his arms were very strong. Many arms moved so quickly and was an aggressive player. He was a fighter and hitter. There were major and minor penalties for the player. He moved as if he had four arms altogether. Many Arms fought hard in the game. His hair was usually spiked, and he wore a mean look on his face. It was a giant war on ice, and Many Arms never wore a helment. He was trapped inside an ancient world in his mind playing hockey. Many Arms remained a great warrior that way winning many games. But there were times he felt himself slowing down with age wanting to retire. Many Arms really only had two arms whenever he grew tired and needed rest.

Playing hockey is not an easy game and can put a strain on a hockey player. Hockey players are constantly skating and moving up and down and all around on ice. It takes a lot of energy. If you’re a hockey player like Many Arms, don’t forget to rest.

Laila Ali was a very serious female fighter. She didn’t jive around like her daddy though he could be serious too and knock you out. Laila’s the daughter of Muhammad Ali. Laila is a retired professional boxer who competed from 1999 to 2007. She said, “I’m not going to be fighting as nearly as long as my father did.”

From 1999 to 2007 was almost 10 yrs. for Laila. Considering Laila getting punched in the ring, that was still a long time. She retired from boxing in 2007 as a two - weight world champion with an undefeated record of 24-0.

I remember when Laila Ali fought Jackie Frazier. It was my first time watching women’s boxing. I didn’t think it would be so exciting but it was. When I saw Laila Ali fighting Jackie Frazier, I was hooked. She was fighting the daughter of Joe Frazier. It was another Ali Vs. Frazier fight through 2 women. It was a fight that happened in 2001. Laila Ali had won the fight. I’ll never forget.

From then on, I was looking for more fights from Laila Ali in women’s boxing. I never heard anything else about Jackie. It was always Laila Ali in the headlines. There seemed to be always some kind of buzz or noise about Laila.

I got a chance to go back and see some of Laila’s past fights that I had missed before she retired. I knew and felt down in my heart that Laila was going to be the greatest just like her father. And that’s what she became. The greatest female boxer of all time.

It is said the bigger they are, the harder they fall. Well, sometimes it’s true. José Ribalta is a 6 foot 6 Cuban Heavyweight. He is taller than Mike Tyson, but he still lost the fight.

Today we’re going to go back in history on EPS. Today’s topic: World B. Free. A retired incredible shooter in the NBA known as the “ Prince of Mid-Air”.

Hi! I’m Gail Nobles. We’re going to go look back at World B. He is a retired American professional basketball player who played in the (NBA) from 1975 to 1988. Free was known as the "Prince of Mid-Air", "Brownsville Bomber", and most often as "All-World".

Free played for the San Diego Clippers, Philadelphia 76ers, Golden State Warriors, Cleveland Cavaliers and Houston Rockets in the NBA. He got his name from his days in Brooklyn, where a friend nicknamed him "World" because of his 44-inch vertical leap and 360 degree dunks. Free was known for his "rainbow" jump shots, referring to the extreme arch of the ball during the shot. He was also known for taking high risk shots and playing flamboyantly.

Lloyd Bernard Free was free’s real name. He once said, “You know I just try to come out there and give them my all in all…. You know a great team like Philadelphia came in here and we were flat. We beat them here and now we're on the road to Chicago. It gives us a big lift right now."

If I’m not mistaken, Free said those words when he was with the San Diego Clippers. I’m Gail Nobles & you’re listening to EPS. I hope you have enjoyed Sports History.

Hello Everyone! I’m Gail Nobles. Today I’m thinking about Howard Cosell. He’s the greatest TV sportscaster of all time. I haven’t heard and seen anyone like him. I remember him most from the times he had talks with Muhammad Ali. Muhammad Ali was always clowning with him. They had a friendship.

Howard Cosell would be excited in his boxing announcement. He’d say things like: Down goes Frazier! Down goes Frazier!” And he’d say: It’s only radio. It’s so simple. - I simply have to get done. I have an eight o’clock train & station. - I don’t think that’s funny! “

Today I’m going to play Howard Cosell from an old episode of Saturday Night Live. Howard Cosell had a great sense of humor. So enjoy Howard Cosell - Saturday Night Live.

Kung Fu is a full contact combat sport. It’s amazing how Afghanistan has a martial arts icon that happens to look so much like Bruce Lee. His name is Abbas Alizada. It’s amazing how he can do martial arts a lot like Bruce Lee and look so much like him, and he’s not even from China. Abbas is a local celebrity; people call him Bruce Hazara - after the Hazara ethnic group he belongs to. Abbas ambition is to complete “Game of Death”, the movie Bruce Lee was in the middle of making when he died, picking up where his Kung-Fu idol left off.
Abbas got into Kung-Fu at age 14 years old. He is the youngest of 10 children. He trains at the Darul Aman Palace twice a week.

Abbas told his feelings about Afghanistan. He said: It’s not a good place. It’s not a good country. I always feel that I am dying in Afghanistan. It’s not a safe place. But I am not afraid of death.

Abbas also said: I want to be Abbas. Not Bruce Lee. No one can be like Bruce Lee. And no one can be like Abbas either.

I think Abbas dreams are coming true. You have been listening to Entertainment Podcasting Sports. I hope you have enjoyed the show.

Good evening everyone! I’m Gail Nobles. I had no idea that Aaliyah was a Chicago Bulls supporter and a Michael Jordan fan, until I saw an old clip of Aaliyah talking about Michael Jordan, saying that she was sad to see him go and how he is a phenomenon. How he had an incredible career. She said if that’s what he wanted to do, she would support him all the way. That he worked hard and that he should relax. That it’s time for him to sit back and watch some games. I’m sure this was probably during the time Michael Jordan was suppose to retire.

Hmm! Aaliyah a Michael Jordan fan. Well, me and Aaliyah didn’t have nothing in common there! I was never a Michael Jordan fan because he was always winning. And I wanted to see some other team beat the Bulls for once. And Jordan knew that nobody was going to beat him in basketball. That’s why I wanted him and the Bulls to get beat.

But you know, Jordan’s alright. He played on my favorite college basketball team, The Tar Heels. And he’s kin to someone that married into my family. But I still wanted Jordan to lose.
I can’t say that Aaliyah didn’t have good taste. Michael Jordan was the greatest.

If you look in the Google images search engine, you’ll see Aaliyah MTV Jock Jersey that she wore. On it is written Aaliyah 19 Bricklayers. You can have one too from Amazon for 18.99. You can see Aaliyah on TikTok, Tumbler, Aaliyah Archives, and Pinterest sporting the Jersey.

It was nice that Aaliyah spoke on Michael Jordan while she was alive. She understood that he worked hard and she supported him in his decision of leaving. Before Aaliyah left us, she knew that she worked hard too in her singing career. She’s resting now herself. Aaliyah has done well in her career.

Stackhouse was a premier player from the time he was a sophomore in high school. He was the state player of the year for North Carolina in 1991–92, leading Kinston (N.C) High School to the state finals. Jerry Stackhouse played college basketball for the North Carolina Tarheels with Rasheed Wallace. Together they helped lead the Tar Heels to the NCAA Final Four in 1995. There were some who considered Stackhouse the top prep player to come out of NC since Michael Jordan.

Now Jerry is a basketball coach and former professional player who is the head coach of the Vanderbilt Commodores men's team. He played 18 seasons in the National Basketball Association (NBA) and was a two-time NBA All-Star. He formerly was the head coach of Raptors 905 and an assistant coach for the Toronto Raptors and Memphis Grizzlies. Additionally, he has worked as an NBA TV analyst.

According to headlines, Jerry Stackhouse is the SEC Co- Coach of the year. It was announced on March 6, 2023.

I think Stackhouse has always done well in his career. Whenever Stackhouse name came up, Michael Jordan’s name sometimes came up. When you’ve seen Stackhouse play on Carolina’s team, you just couldn’t help mentioning Jordan. He looked like the next Michael Jordan flying in the air Slam dunking the ball and shooting from long distance.

In an interview, Stackhouse revealed he wished he had never played with Jordan on the Washington Wizards. He said: It was really challenging to be able to be in a situation with an idol who at this particular point, I felt like I was a better player.”

Well Stackhouse was truly an outstanding player. To me, there was greatness also in himself though he played with Jordan. I’m Gail Nobles. Tune in next time for more EPS.

Duke, Carolina, & State Duke, Carolina, and State are the three college basketball teams that I watch every year. The biggest upset of rivalry of all time is Duke VS.UNC. Another big rivalry of all time is UNC VS. State. I haven’t seen much excitement since then. That’s when men’s college basketball was real exciting to me. It seems as if the competition and the teams got weaker in my opinion. The teams are not the same because the players are not the same players we had in the past on the teams. There are different coaches for the teams and things like that. Things change through the years.

In the past, I remember either you were a Duke fan or a Carolina fan or a State fan. I am a Carolina fan. Tar Heel basketball players and fans have often insisted that the Wolfpack are not true rivals in basketball due to the Tar Heels' recent dominance, saying that UNC's only true rivalry is the North Carolina-Duke rivalry. However I still watch all three teams every year because I was in the days when all three teams seemed hot and strong. All I ever heard in the past were those three basketball team names. Wolfpack, Carolina, or Duke.

This year did NC State make it to the NCAA tournament in men’s basketball? It has been said the decision is finished; it is over. NC State is in the NCAA tournament.

Did UNC make it? The UNC men’s basketball team fell to the No.13 Virginia Cavaliers in the ACC tournament. So they are likely to miss NCAA tournament. It don’t look so good.

According to the headlines, ACC champion Duke turns attention to NCAA tournament. Duke won the 2023 men’s ACC Championship beating Virginia 59-49.

It seems as if the competition and the teams got weaker in my opinion. The teams are not the same because the players are not the same players we had in the past on the teams. There are different coaches for the teams and things like that. Things change through the years.

In the past, I remember either you were a Duke fan or a Carolina fan or a State fan. I am a Carolina fan. Tar Heel basketball players and fans have often insisted that the Wolfpack are not true rivals in basketball due to the Tar Heels' recent dominance, saying that UNC's only true rivalry is the North Carolina-Duke rivalry. However I still watch all three teams every year because I was in the days when all three teams seemed hot and strong. All I ever heard in the past were those three basketball team names. Wolfpack, Carolina, or Duke.

This year did NC State make it to the NCAA tournament in men’s basketball? It has been said the decision is finished; it is over. NC State is in the NCAA tournament.

Did UNC make it? The UNC men’s basketball team fell to the No.13 Virginia Cavaliers in the ACC tournament. So they are likely to miss NCAA tournament. It don’t look so good.

According to the headlines, ACC champion Duke turns attention to NCAA tournament. Duke won the 2023 men’s ACC Championship beating Virginia 59-49.

Do you remember the fight that took place in Osaka, Japan in 2005? Hong Man Choi VS Bob Sapp. Choi won the fight, but it looked like a tie to me. Bob was shorter & bled more, but he was kickboxing Choi just as much as Choi was kickboxing him. I can’t understand why the match wasn’t a tie. To me, both men were equal in the fight. It should have been a tie, and there should have been a rematch.

Hong Man Choi is a South Korean kickboxer, and Bob Sapp is an African American kickboxer. Hong Man Choi is 7 ft 2 in & weighs 353 lbs. Bob Sapp is 6 ft 5 in & weighs 329 lbs. Both men are in Super Heavyweight Division.

Hong Man Choi kickboxing record is total 22, Wins 13, By knockout 7, Losses 9, By Knockout 3. Bob Sapp kickboxing record is total 31, Wins 12, By Knockout 9, Losses 19, By Knockout 12. Both men were fight hard against each other when they fought. However Bob Sapp was Defeated by Hong Man Choi with a 2-0 decision. I think there should be a rematch between the two of them this very day.

Jarrett Allen reminds me of the great old time players in a new age. I love his tall muscular slam dunks and his Afro. He makes me think of players like Dr. J and Kareem from the old days of basketball in the 70s.

(Dialogue)

Jarrett Allen is a basketball player for the Cleveland Cavaliers of the NBA. He played college basketball for the Texas Longhorns. Allen was selected 22nd over all by the Brooklyn Nets in the 2017 NBA draft. In January 2021, he was traded to the Cleveland Cavaliers as part of the four-team blockbuster James Harden trade. In February 2022, Allen was named to his first NBA All-Star Game.

Allen shoots long distance & the ball goes straight in. He can shoot and draw the foul. Allen has confidence in his moves. He’s good at blocking his opponents. He’s a very strong player with more than one strength.

Today’s topic: LeBron James Given Credit For What HE has done on EPS.

Hi! I’m Gail Nobles & I’d like to say LeBron James finishes the game with 38,390 points that Kareem Abdul Jabbar has held since 1984. That’s 39 yrs. That’s a lot of years. It must have been tough.LeBron pushed his all-time record to 38,390 points on Feb. 7, 2023. Lakers VS. Oklahoma City Thunder game.

There are people saying that Michael Jordan is still number one. Plus it is said that Kareem - Abdul Jabbar was unstoppable. Some still think that Kareem is the best score in the NBA. You can have the most points & not be the greatest in scoring. However, some people think that LeBron James is the best. Everybody has their own opinion.

My opinion is LeBron is given credit for what he has done in his time. He is not Michael Jordan or Kareem Abdul Jabbar. He is LeBron, and he is not the past. He is a present NBA player that made the all time leading score in history. We need some new history and LeBron is that new history in the NBA. There may be some things he didn’t do, but he made history finishing the game. However, some bring up Jordan’s name like he’s still on the court playing ball. I wonder what they would say if LeBron broke Michael Jordan’s record for championships. I hope LeBron doesn’t retire because I believe he can do a whole lot more. They don’t call him King James for nothing. That means he is King. I’m Gail Nobles on EPS.

Vince Carter attended the University of NC at Chapel Hill. When I first saw him play, I knew he was going to be a slam dunk star. Carter played college basketball for three years with the NC Tar Heels and twice advanced to the Final Four of the NCAA Tournament. He was selected with the fifth overall pick in the 1998 NBA draft by the Golden State Warriors, who traded him to the Toronto Raptors. Carter emerged as a star in Toronto as he won the 1999 NBA Rookie of the Year Award and the Slam Dunk Contest at 2000 NBA All- Star Weekend..

Vince Carter has a Career History. He played for the New Jersey Nets where he continued offensive success. He also played for the Orlando Magic, Memphis Grizzlies, & Sacramento Kings just to name a few.

Vince had a lot of passion when he played. He is the last NBA basketball player that I really kept my eyes on. Vince was the most exciting to me. He was ready when the ball was passed to him. He had power & strength in his running and his jumping. Vince would throw up the ball to hit the backboard and catch with one hand to slam. He had a lot of energy when he played ball and speed. Vince had strong legs & could jump very high to the rim. He had strong arms to slam.

That’s pretty much all that I could see to describe Vince Carter playing basketball. I’m sure there were more details about the way he moved depending on what he did playing different times.

Vince is the only player in NBA history to play as many as 22 seasons and in four different decades from his debut in 1999 to his retirement in 2020.

I was surprised to see Daiju Takase escape Emmanuel Yarbrough in the UFC. Yarbrough is 600 lbs & Takase 169 lbs. I had to ask myself how is that little man going to fight that huge man. For a long time Daiju Takase moved around the ring and though Yarbrough was slow in moving, sometimes he moved quickly to try to catch Takase.

Towards the end of the fight, Yarbrough got Takase down on the mat. Takase tried to get out from under Yarbrough. It looked as Takase was stuck.He started hitting Yarbrough with his leg stuck. Yarbrough began to bleed. Somehow Takase got his leg out from under the 600 lbs fighter hitting him, and the fight was over. Daiju Takase beat Emmanuel Yarbrough! Amazing.

The Welterweight Champion of the World! Here is the First Lady of Boxing, Cecilia Brækhus! Tonight she looks to make history of 25 successful title offenses. Her record consist of 36 bouts and 36 victories.

Cecilia Brækhus is a Norwegian professional boxer and former kickboxer. In boxing she reigned as the undisputed female welterweight champion from 2014 to 2020, and is the first woman in any weight class to hold the WBA, WBC, IBF and WBO titles simultaneously. She is also one of only 11 boxers in history, female or male, to hold all four major world titles simultaneously, along with Bernard Hopkins (2004–2005) and others. In 2016, she captured the IBO title, becoming the first ever boxer to hold five world titles from sanctioning bodies simultaneously.

Guinness World Records awarded her with three recognitions in 2018: the Longest Reigning Female Boxing Champion, the Longest Reign as a Four-Belt Undisputed Boxing Champion, and the Most Bouts Undefeated by a Female World Champion Boxer.[2] As of September 2020, she is ranked as the world's second best active female welterweight by The Ring.

The last headline that I saw for this year about Cecilia is she avoids retirement, to aim for junior middleweight belts. So we’ll be keeping an eye open for Cecilia Brækhus.

Kendrick Carmouche is one of the very few African American jockeys left in the game. He is 38 years of age and was born in 1984. He started riding horses in his hometown of Louisiana. He received his jockey license when he was just 16 years old.

Kendrick’s official win came in his name in the year 2000. He has won more than 3400 races and earned nearly $119 million.

That’s a lot of racing and that’s a lot of money. That tells me that Kendrick Carmouche must love the sport. I suppose Kendrick is like his father who also rode professionally and was a jockey. Kendrick is making African American jockey history. He is the first black jockey in the Derby since 2013.

Kendrick talked about the black pioneers that paved the way and got pushed out of the game. Kendrick thinks he’s rewriting history. Kendrick feels that he needs to make it right for all the jockeys before him to stay visual. He feels that it wasn’t easy to get to the point where he’s at, but mentally & physically he made it.

Hi! I’m Gail Nobles & you’re listening to EPS. I have decided that I would check in on the hockey games to see what’s going on. The Avalanche team seems to be a number one team. They played yesterday against the Blue Jackets Nov. 5, 2022.

In the first period of the game, Mackannon scores. It’s 1-0. When the clock gets down to 7:33, the Blue Jackets scores, and then it was 1-1 Werenski.

In the second period, the Avalanche team scores 2-1 - Martin Kaunt. And then the Avalanche team scores again, 3-1. Then Devon Toew scores, and it becomes 4-1, The Avalanche.

In the 3rd period, the Avalanche team scores. Then it’s 5-1, and Avalanche wins the game.

This is a sports news flash. San Francisco 49ers VS Carolina Panthers on Oct. 9, 2022.

Tevin Coleman made a touch down in the 1st quarter of the game. San Francisco 7 to Carolina 0. I love both San Francisco & The Panthers, and I also felt that San Francisco was going to win the game on Sunday Oct. 9, 2022. All the way through the 1st quarter it was 7 to O.

In the 2nd quarter, it was 10 to 0. Field Goal from 43 yards away. Pineiro nails it, and the Panthers got 3 points. With 47 seconds to go, Mosley goes down the sideline. He goes all the way and makes a touchdown. San Francisco then had 17 points & Carolina had 3.

Soon in the 3rd quarter McCaffrey from the Carolina’s team makes a touchdown. They received 9 points. The score 17-9. I kept thinking, “Now is the time for the Carolina Panthers to make more touchdowns to catch up. But then San Francisco made another touchdown. That gave Sanfransciso a new score. 24 points thanks to Debo Samuel. After that, Eddie Pineiro kicked the ball and The Panthers score became 12.

In the 4th quarter, Wilson gets a touch down for the 49ers. The score is then 30 to 12. The San Francisco 49ers were way ahead. Carolina kicks the ball and then it’s 30 to 15. In the end of the 4th quarter, San Francisco wins 37 to 15.

Tonight’s Episode: Phil Jackson & Michael Jordan

To be honest, I hardly knew Phil Jackson. It was always Michael Jordan - Michael Jordan. Michael Jordan first joined the Bulls in 1984. He was the NBA Rookie of the year in 1985.

In 1987, Jackson was hired as an assistant coach by the Chicago Bulls under Doug Collins. He promoted to head coach in 1989. Jackson and the Bulls made the playoffs every year, and failed to win the title only three times.

Before Phil Jackson became coach, people were already talking about Michael Jordan. I wasn’t a Chicago Bulls fan & as far back as I can remember, every time I turned around, Jordan was making shots, slam dunking, and winning. He jumped high up in the air. When I think of air Jordan, I think of him & not the basketball shoes. Michael Jordan - Michael Jordan! I said, “This man doesn’t ever loose.”

I don’t remember seeing Phil Jackson that much. Scottie Pippen along with Michael Jordan played an important role in transforming the Bulls into a championship team and popularizing the NBA around the world during the 1990s. But though Pippen was there, all I could see was Michael Jordan. All I ever heard was his name.

However, Phil Jackson had to be a great coach. Jackson was the head coach of the Chicago Bulls from 1989 to 1998, leading them to six NBA championships. He then coached the Los Angeles Lakers from 1999 to 2004 & again from 2005 to 2011; the team won five league titles under his leadership. Jackson’s 11 NBA titles as a coach surpassed the previous record of nine set by Red Auerbach.

1941 was World War 11 era, and the Giants finished their game 8 to 3 in 1941. They held a ceremony to honor the future Hall of Famer Leemans in the final regular season game on Dec. 7, 1941. Leemans had been with the Giants since 1936, when he led the league in rushing as a rookie with 830 yards.

I’m going to leave you now & share the audio of the interruption of news of the football game. ..

Hi, I’m Gail Nobles & you’re listening to EPS. It is said that LeBron James wants to buy an NBA team in Las Vegas after he retires. Is owning an NBA team profitable? If yes, I think LeBron James should go for it. Is an NBA team a good investment? If yes, I think LeBron James should go for it.

I hear quite a bit about people owning ball teams. Do you ever wonder just what does NBA team owners do? It is probably their job to hire new head coaches and sometimes players, and maybe more. I suppose they are the ones to make decisions for the team.

LeBron seems to have some experience. LeBron James is rich enough to buy an NBA team, and he’s got nothing to lose if an NBA team can be very profitable.

I’m Gail Nobles & this is a sports news flash.

Hi, I’m Gail Nobles bringing you boxing news today. Shakur Stevenson dominated Robson Conceicao in his hometown Newark, New Jersey on Friday night, despite being stripped of his WBC and WBO super - featherweight belts.

Shakur an American professional boxer. He is a former world champion in two weight classes, having held the WBO featherweight title from 2019 to 2020, the WBO super featherweight title from 2021 to 2022, and the WBC and The Ring super featherweight titles in 2022.

Looking at the fight against Robson, Shakur is good with the uppercut and left hand to the body. He gets a 1 point deduction for hip toss and another deduction for tossing. But Shakur wins the fight. I think he fought well though he took a lot of punches from Robson.

You’re listening to EPS. I’m you’re host, Gail Nobles, bringing you an update on what’s happening in the boxing news.

Do you remember Aaliyah at the 1997 MTV Rock and Jock Basketball Game? She sang “If Your Girl Only Knew”

MTV Rock N' Jock is a television series on MTV featuring actors, musicians, and other entertainers playing sports with professional athletes. The original episode was called The MTV Rock N' Jock Diamond Derby, and was changed to MTV's Rock N' Jock Softball Challenge, in year 2. The concept expanded to include basketball in 1991, football in 1997 (and bowling in 1999[. The game was an annual feature (with multiple reruns of most episodes)for many years on MTV.

I thought it was cool that Aaliyah performed “If Your Girl Only Knew” live for the 1997 MTV Rock and Jock Basketball Game. I loved Aaliyah’s sporty fashion look. I think she wore the Niki Shoes. And with her music, she got everybody into the groove. I loved the way Aaliyah would step and move with her dance crew. I loved hearing her backup singers & hearing her lead vocals for the song.

There are great National Basketball Association career rebounding leaders like Wilt Chamberlain, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Moses Malone, Shaquille O’Neal, Charles Barkley & Dennis Rodman just to name a few.

It is said that Wilt Chamberlain is the undisputed king of the rebounds. A rebound is a statistics awarded to a player who retrieves the ball after a missed field goal or free throw.

A rebound player tips in a missed shot on his team’s offensive end. A rebound can be grabbed by either an offensive player or a defensive player. Rebounds are credited after any missed shot, including air balls which totally misses the basket and board. If a player takes a shot and misses and the ball bounces on the ground before someone picks it up, then the person who picks up the ball is credited for a rebound.

Great rebounders tend to be tall and strong. Some shorter guards can be excellent rebounders as well. I’m Gail Nobles and you’re listening to EPS.

Hello! I’m Gail Nobles on EPS. Today’s topic: Country Hoops.

They always talk about Streetball and asphalt, but I never hear about basketball in the country on the grass. Well, I don’t have to hear about it. I know about it. They talk about Dr. J at the Rucker Park and how he drew a crowd. How people were sitting up in the trees to watch him play. But when you play basketball on the grass surrounded by trees, it’s hard.

Guys and girls would come to my house to play ball with me and my brother. They were pretty good, but when you’re used to playing on a gym floor or on asphalt, it’s not as easy to dribble the ball playing on grass. And we tried bouncing the ball on the grass so much until after awhile, it got easier because the grass started dying. After awhile, there was nothing but a big circle of dirt where we bounced the ball the most.

Whenever we would try to shoot some hoops, there was a big tree over the basketball goal. It’s branches would block some of our shots. The branches were like long arms in our way, but all those obstacles trained us more how to play.

Good evening. I’m Gail Nobles on EPS.
Today’s topic is Winning Time: The Rise of the Lakers Dynasty. I’ve seen short clips of the first season. The series tells the story of the Lakers rise. I see celebrity in the film and what basketball days were like during the time of the Magic Johnson and Kareem Abdul Jabbar. You get to see what Magic and Kareem’s lives were like professionally and personally of the 1980s playing for The Lakers.

Winning Time is based on Jeff Pearlman’s book Showtime: Magic, Kareem, Riley and the Los Angeles Lakers Dynasty of the 1980s.

I’m amazed at the actors Quincy Isaiah who plays as Magic Johnson and Solomon Hughes as Kareem Abdul Jabbar. Quincy looked so much like Magic and Solomon looked so much like Kareem. Quincy played Magic well, and Solomon played Kareem well. When I first saw the preview of Winning Time, I was about to think it was the real Kareem and Magic. The film flashed back & forth to different scenes, and I had to get a harder and closer look. I thought, “Wow! What a movie!” They made it look so real. The other actors looked a lot like their characters too. They made the movie look like scenes from the real film.

I’d like to thank HBO website for allowing the first episode to be seen for free because I really wanted to see what the movie was about. It left me anxious to see the whole movie.

The real Magic Johnson had something to say about the movie, “Winning Time” according to the news.

He said, “You can’t do a story about the Lakers without the Lakers. The real Lakers. You got to have the real guys.” He said he refuses to watch the series.

Well, it would be neat if they added some of the Real Lakers to the movie later on. Like Magic and Kareem. I’m hoping to see the rest of the movie soon. I like what I have seen so far.

Hello! I’m Gail Nobles on Entertainment Podcasting Sports. I must say I was very nervous about last night’s game. It was Carolina and Duke of the NCAA tournament in the Final Four. I was hoping that Carolina would win. They are my favorite team, and they did win.

Duke was getting ahead of Carolina and Carolina was getting ahead of Duke. Carolina couldn’t seem to leave Duke behind because Duke kept catching up. I was so nervous for Carolina. Especially, whenever it was time for Carolina to go to the free throw line. I had my fingers crossed that they wouldn’t miss one shot. It’s important to make those free throws. At first, I thought Duke was going to stay in the lead, but UNC’s Caleb Love picked up the pace in the second half and led the game scoring with 28 points.

I wonder if Vince Carter, Antwan Jamison, Rasheed Wallace, and Jerry Stackhouse were watching. They all were great UNC basketball players in the past. I still think about them whenever I see Carolina play.

This year has been good to Carolina with a new coach, Hubert Davis. Before his coaching career, Davis played for NC from 1988-1992 and in the NBA. Carolina won the ACC against Duke in March, and last night they won against them in the Final Four.

Mike K. Is going to be missed. He is going to retire. Even though he did not win last night, he’s still the best and has made basketball history.

People seem to really want to know about Creed 3. They want to know who’s going to be the next big villain. Don’t you just hate it when some secrets are kept about movies?

I’m hoping the next guy will be Clubber Lang’s son. However, some people don’t want the next movie to be about Clubber Lang’s son. Some people think it’s a bad idea. I think it’s a good idea since this will only be the third movie of Creed.

Sylvester Stallone will not be returning as Rocky and Michael B. Jordan is going to be directing the movie. I think Rocky should remain in it a little bit.

People are worried that the movie might be Sinclair to what Rocky did, but if Clubber Lang’s son is in the story, it’s still going to be a different story. Clubber Lang’s son is the son and not the father. The movie could be made more exciting than Rocky’s story. Some of the fans are not ready to let go of Rocky yet. It wouldn’t hurt to have Rocky around in the movie just a little bit. This is going to be Creed 3. Not Creed 10. To me, Creed is really just getting started. The idea of Clubber Lang’s son could make more of an exciting movie than the last two movies that were made.

It’s possible that a boxer could run into another boxer’s past opponents if they are all in the boxing business. Boxing fans also like to see the best fighters fight the best.

If Clubber Lang’s son is added to the story, it would be great to see Mr. T’s character Clubber Lang again. Some of us want to know what happened to him. He was a great character only in Rocky 3. He was a strong vicious fighter. If he is in the movie to train his son, then it would make sense for Rocky to stick around to give some training advice to Adonis. Some may think the idea of Clubber Lang’s son shouldn’t be. What do you think?

Today’s topic: Reese Goose Tatum on Entertainment Podcasting Sports.

Goose The Clown Prince of Basketball. But to me, Goose was more than a clown. He could do things with a basketball that you might not see today. This was a Globetrotter’s game, and he was a magician. Goose would pretend to throw the ball up, and the players would jump up while Goose still held the ball in his hand. He had fancy ball handling. Goose had a long hook shot but his first option was always a pass. He was a showman. The Clown Prince would run all over the basketball court as if he were going to play football? Goose was a negro league baseball and basketball player. He might would have made a good football player.

In 1942, he was signed to the Harlem Globetrotters and had an 11 - year career with the team. He later formed his own team known as the Harlem Magicians with former Globetrotters player Marques Haynes.

Goose Tatum wove numerous comic routines into his play, many of which achieved cult status. Some of these routines were based on his stature - at 6’4”. It is reported that he had an arm span of about 84 inches and could touch his kneecaps without bending. Goose is credited with inventing the hook shot. While playing for the Harlem Magicians, Tatum was billed as having scored the most points in the history of basketball, but the assertion is dubious.

In 1974, Tatum was inducted into the Arkansas Sports Hall of Fame. His number 50 jersey was retired by the Harlem Globetrotters on February 8, 2002 and his name was placed on the Globetrotters' "Legends Ring" at Madison Square Garden in New York City.

Goose Tatum left the world in 1967 at age 45. He was a great entertainer. I’m Gail Nobles, and you’re listening to Entertainment Podcasting Sports.

Actor: Remember what Jim Valvano said about HOPE. Things can get better. Remember the 83 team. Today’s topic is the Wolfpack. You’re listening to Entertainment Podcasting Sports. Thank you.

State’s unexpected1983 title was one of the most memorable in NCAA history. I’ve been hoping that they would win the championship again though I’m not a Wolfpack fan. I miss the great competition there was between the Wolfpack, Duke, and Carolina. All three teams were on fire. But our college basketball days are a little different now.

The Wolfpack team that we have today is a Wolfpack with different players. They are not that team back in 83. The coach is not the same coach today. Things change, but there is still hope, and things can get better. The Wolfpack can win.

Actor: He misses! State has the lead! No good! NC State has won the Atlantic Coastal Conference Tournament Championship Game!

N.C. State is one of the seven founding members of the Atlantic Coast Conference. Prior to joining the ACC in 1954, the Wolfpack was a member of the Southern Conference, where they won seven conference championships. As a member of the ACC, the Wolfpack has won ten conference championships, as well as two national championships in 1974 and 1983.

Jim Valvano was a great coach of the NC State team. He had a lot of energy and fought hard against coach Dean Smith of the UNC Tarheels and Mike Kryzewski of the Duke Blue Devils. Jim was diagnosed with a rare cancer. He left us in 1993 at age 47.

Actor: Jim Volcano’s words still live. North Carolina State can continue to win championships. They have a motivated person and are a team with a dream and a goal and a vision. There is great hope for the Wolfpack.

Hi! I’m Gail Nobles. Today’s topic: The Broadcast Quake & Willie Mays

The World Series happened Oct. 17, 1989. That was 32 years ago. It was a game between the San Francisco Giants and the Oakland Athletics. It was a 1989 Broadcast Quake on ABC. (Clip) It is said the screen flickered, the ground started to shake & the screen went black.

There was a Giant legend named Willie Mays at the Giants clubhouse. He played for the San Francisco Giants. Mays is a retired legend and retired in 1973. He was a former professional baseball center fielder. During the time of the earthquake series, he was at the age of 58, and this is what he had to say about the earthquake ( Clip Police and Mays). It seems Willie Mays had a fear of the earthquake. Mays remains as the oldest living Hall of Famer. He is 90 years old today.

In 1989, the Oakland Athletics won the 1989 World Series over San Francisco Giants, 4-0 on the day of the Lama Prieta earthquake.

Lately, I’ve been seeing Isaiah Oliver in the headlines for football. He’s the cornerback for the Atlanta Falcons of the National Football League (NFL). Isaiah played college football at Colorado and was drafted by the Falcons in the second round of the 2018 NFL Draft.

Let’s listen and look back at Isaiah Olivers’s conversation after being picked as the 58th pick in the 2018 NFL Draft. …….

((Interview)

That was Oliver talking with DJ Shockley.

It is said that Oliver is one of the presumed starters at cornerback for the Falcons this season. In 30 career stats for the Falcons, Oliver has only one career interception. He has a total of 155 tackles.

Today’s topic is about huge football players. Football players can be very huge. I’ve heard talk of one or two football players in their teens playing high school football in the past. 7 feet tall and around 400 pounds. But I do not know if any of those boys played professional or college football later on.

It’s got to be hard playing against a giant football player. If he falls on you, and if you’re small, that’s got to hurt because a giant player is so big and strong. I would be concerned about how fast a giant football player could run and if he would need to loose weight.

Just imagine looking up at a giant tall football player ready to tackle you. Ready to fall on you and he’s weighing 400 pounds. That ought to make somebody run for sure on a football team. I mean run for your life, but head for a touch down.

In the NFL, there have been guys playing football 6 feet tall and around 300 pounds. .. and around 400 pounds. Some are 6 feet 9 and 6 feet 8. The tallest player in professional American football history is Richard Sligh. He was 7 foot 2.

I think there are some guys out there waiting to play professional football just as tall. I don’t know how many pounds Richard was. I would like to actually see someone play as tall as Richard in football. Football. Not soccer football but football.

In the NFL, there have been guys playing football 6 feet tall and around 300 pounds. .. and around 400 pounds. Some are 6 feet 9 and 6 feet 8. The tallest player in professional American football history is Richard Sligh. He was 7 foot 2.

I think there are some guys out there waiting to play professional football just as tall. I don’t know how many pounds Richard was. I would like to actually see someone play as tall as Richard in football. Football. Not soccer football but football.

The Professor

The Professor disguised himself as Spider-Man and went to various basketball courts in the Los Angeles area to play against unsuspected competitors. I’m your host, Gail Nobles.

Grayson Boucher known as the Professor. An American Streetball player and actor. You may have seen him on AND1 Mixtape Tour, and he appeared in several movies.

I believe he would have been the best in the NBA y’all. He had a lot of energy, and I believed that whatever team he would have played on, he would have helped that team win. The Professor was fast. I’m surprised I don’t get dizzy trying to keep up with him, watching him on video, and watching him bounce the ball.

The Professor has what it takes to play in the NBA. He knows how to play basketball. In the NBA, he might would have to change up a little bit as far as his moves. The Professor knows what’s legal and illegal. He has played and worked out with NBA players. I think the Professor has enough experience and on a high enough level to play in the NBA.

When you’re good at something, people can see it, and there are always going to be some critics, and people telling you that you are not good enough. Even if they know that you’re good enough sometimes. They just don’t want you to know it. I think it’s all just envy or else they would tell you how good you are and maybe what you need to work on.

I look at some of the NBA players sometimes, and I don’t think some of them are as good as the Professor, but everybody has an opinion.

Today’s topic: Boxer Anthony Joushua Shooting Hoops

British Professional Boxer Anthony Joshua is today’s topic today on Entertainment Podcasting Sports. He is a two time unified world heavyweight champion, having held the WBA(Super), IBF, WBO, and IBO titles since Dec. 2019.

I like to watch the YouTube videos of Joshua sparring on the streets. I’ve also seen him try to shoot hoops in the streets of NYC. His shots were not bad though he missed from a far distance from the basketball goal. Joshua has long strong arms. According to the author of the video “Fight Hub TV” Anthony hit the streets of New York relaxing after his knockout loss to Andy Ruiz.

I’ve read some news here and there from ESPN about some NBA players inside the boxing ring. I suppose it’s good for them to do. After all, it’s a big part of workout and training.

When it comes to boxing, I like to see a street fight. That is why I like to watch Joshua sparring on the streets. There is talent in the streets where men are hungry. They look really motivated to reach the top.

You know, it was fun watching Anthony Joshua shooting hoops though he is a professional fighter. I believe he’d be an awesome streetball player and street fighter.

Dr. J could take a ball out of the air, and he would dunk it. Because of how well he played, people tried to name him all kind of names. The Claw, Black Moses, and Houdini.

He said, “…. if they wanted to call me anything, call me Dr.”

It is said that people would watch Dr. J play all up on the roof. He drew the greatest crowd in the history of the Rucker pro league. People were up in the trees sitting on branches. It is said that people could not see enough of the game. People would be up on the bridges. Dr. J at Harlem famed Rucker park. That is where the legend of Dr. J started.

The young crowd may not know about Dr. J. He could hang in the air a long time and extend his long right arm under the left part of the basket and make the shot. If you’re a young player playing basketball listening to my podcast; if you desire to be the greatest in basketball, watch some old films and clips of Dr. J playing basketball. He had moves like no other player, and you’ll see how other players may have been inspired by him that you might have heard of.

Regarded as one of the greatest and most influential basketball players of all time and the greatest ABA player of all time, Erving helped legitimize the American Basketball Association (ABA) and was the best-known player in that league when it merged into the National Basketball Association (NBA) after the 1975–76 season.

Erving won three championships, four Most Valuable Player Awards, and three scoring titles with the ABA's Virginia Squires and New York Nets (now the NBA's Brooklyn Nets) and the NBA's Philadelphia 76ers. He was well known for slam dunking from the free throw line in slam dunk contests.

Julius known as Dr. J said, “It’s still a kids game and you have to approach it as you did when you were a kid. Some days you wake up and your body hurt. Do what you do best for as long as you can.”

Skip To My Lou - Rafer Alston

He moved with long and swift legs and feet. He would swing his arms long with the ball half way behind his back. He could bounce the ball between his legs and behind his back and spin around with the ball and pass it over your head. It’s kind of hard to describe him. Rafer Alston had crazy creative ball handling abilities. He made it hard for you to steal the ball from him because the guys approaching him stood in front of him. From the few clips I saw, I never saw anyone take the ball from him. One of his moves was a skip while dribbling the ball, and that’s why they call him “Skip to My Lou”.

Alston got a chance to play in the NBA. He played for the Milwaukee Bucks. He joined the Toronto Raptors. He joined the Rockets, later Orlando Magic, New Jersey Nets, & then Miami Heat. Alston played for six teams while in the NBA from 1999-2010.

Seeing him as a streetball player was more exciting to me. Alston looked as if he had freedom to do his moves more on the street court. On the NBA court, he played more with the team by sharing the ball, but he still played well.

I want to talk more about "Skip To My Lou” on the street basketball court. Now this is what I saw while Alston was dribbling the ball. When the ball hit the ground, one leg went up. When the ball hit the ground a 2nd time while dribbling, the other leg went up. Alston looked as if he was kicking his legs out. Bounce, leg, bounce, leg, bounce; leg

Do you remember how Muhammad Ali had his own creative move in doing the shuffle in boxing? Well, Rafer Alston had his own creative move in basketball.

I’m Gail Nobles, and it has been a pleasure talking with you today about Rafer Alston.

Streetball on EPS (Entertainment Podcasting Sports)

In my opinion, streetball players are outstanding. I would watch a streetball game first before the NBA. A street baller’s moves aren’t allowed in the NBA. It’s looked at as entertainment. Well, isn’t all sports entertainment? In my opinion, streetball can be just as serious as the NBA. The rules are just different. But they all shake n bake and slam dunk. Streetball is just a different game. Streetball is more exciting to me because of the speed and quickness and moves not allowed in the NBA in a streetball environment. The street players seem more talented than NBA players. I want to talk to you about one of them whose name is Aaron “A.O" Owens.

His nick name is AO. Aaron is an American streetball player from North Philadelphia. He was born March 20, 1974. AO was on the AND 1 Mixtape tour from it’s creation until 2007. He played basketball at Henderson State University in Arkansas from 1998-1999, where he graduated in 1999 and was a Division 2 All -American.

It is said AO was ahead of his time and was from an era right after the Harlem Globetrotters became a household name. After watching a basketball clip of Aaron Owens, I could see a Harlem Globetrotter player in him. In my opinion, he was very quick with the ball. Owens appeared to have real fast moves. He had a lot of energy. Owens was quick to the rim. That’s what any basketball game needs. His position was guard, and I think he would have been the best in the NBA. In my opinion, I think he was the best anyway, and sometimes the best don’t get the opportunities that they deserve. I’m Gail Nobles and you’re listening to Streetball on EPS.

And today’s topic is Troy Escalade Jackson. He was close to 500Ib and 6 foot 9.He was the brother of Mark Jackson who was in the NBA. His name is Troy Escalade Jackson. Someone with his size playing basketball was incredible. Troy could move like a skinny man and make a ball pass all around you. He had all different kind o passes. He could bounce the ball over your head, and he could slam dunk. Troy was an amazing basketball playing giant. He is a street ball legend that passed away too soon. His cause of death was hypertensive heart disease on Feb. 20, 2011 at 38 years of age.

Troy would talk in interviews.

“Escalade is some bad stuff. … You just got hit by a truck…. You just got ran over by a brand new Escalade. That was it. I was born. I was too big. Bam!” ___ Troy Escalade Jackson

Troy’s accomplishments in Community College led to a scholarship offer from the University of Louisville, though the school demanded that he lose weight. Jackson had slimmed down to about 363 pounds. Jackson only played twenty games for Louisville over two years, averaging 3.0 points per game and 1.6 rebounds per game in a reverse role. However, he became well-known to basketball fans through the AND1 Mixtape Tour, a traveling streetball exhibition which he joined in 2002.

We hear about College basketball players and NBA basketball players all the time. But there is nothing like a streetball player moving as free as a bird. I'm talking about Hot Sauce Philip Champion. You know the guy that played in the movie Crossover. In January 2009, it was announced that Champion had signed with the College Park Spyders of the present American Basketball Association. He also played on the Streetball And1 Mixtape Tour from it's creation of 2002.

At first, nobody knew who Philip Champion was, and then wen he started doing his thing in basketball, people started going crazy for him in Cali for the very first game. I watched Hot Sauce Philip on an And1 basketball video, and it's true what they say about him. It's like the basketball is attached to his hand. Hot Sauce lets the basketball move like it's getting away from him, but he brings it back to himself like it's a Yo-Yo.

Hot Sauce has a lot of fast and crazy moves. He can circle around you, and when you think he's going in one direction, he goes in another direction. All those moves make's it very hard to get the ball. Hot Sauce is constantly bouncing the ball between his legs and making the ball bounce off of you. You can't win, and you can't steal the ball. With all that time wasted watching him bounce the ball, he finally shoots the ball and makes the shot. Hot sauce once said, "Like Jordan!"

Wilt Chamberlain is considered one of the greatest players in history. He played for the Philadelphia/San Francisco Warriors, the Philadelphia 76ers, and the Los Angeles Lakers of the National Basketball Association (NBA). He played for the University of Kansas and also for the Harlem Globetrotters before playing in the NBA. He was 7 ft 1 in (2.16 m) tall, and weighed 250 pounds as a rookie. (Wikipedia.com)

Chamberlain was known by several nicknames during his basketball playing career. He hated the ones that called attention to his height, such as "Goliath" and "Wilt the Stilt".

According to sources, one of Wilt Chamberlain's Rucker stories involved a game when they didn't have nets on the rims. He dunked the ball so hard, it went through the rim, slammed off of the pavement, and went over a 15 foot fence. It is said by the time the game continued, the goal was still shaking. Now that's street basketball. (bleachreport.com)

Wilt Chamberlain is considered one of the greatest players in history. He played for the Philadelphia/San Francisco Warriors, the Philadelphia 76ers, and the Los Angeles Lakers of the National Basketball Association (NBA). He played for the University of Kansas and also for the Harlem Globetrotters before playing in the NBA. He was 7 ft 1 in (2.16 m) tall, and weighed 250 pounds as a rookie. (Wikipedia.com)

Chamberlain was known by several nicknames during his basketball playing career. He hated the ones that called attention to his height, such as "Goliath" and "Wilt the Stilt".

How often do you hear about street basketball? We see college basketball and NBA on television, but we don’t see street ball shows. Kevin Durant, an NBA star had a Harlem crowd excited in street basketball. It looks more exciting on outdoor courts. The street players seem free to show off their own skills. The rules seem to be different in street basketball.

Since we have so many reality shows, it would be nice to have a street ball show for television. People love sports, and a street baskeball show would fit right in for television. Seeing Kevin Durant excite so many people, I think it would be interesting to have a street ball show.
