Brewers Again Predicted By Many To Be Average, But Will They Be That Bad

 Over the last few years, everyone has a prediction for the Milwaukee Brewers, and most are doom and gloom. Now, this off-season is no exception, as the Brewers traded away their ace pitcher, Freddy Peralta, for some high-rated prospects. This is the third year in a row the Brewers have moved some of their top players, and they continue to make the playoffs. Is this the season the Brewers will struggle with all the new pieces in place?

Milwaukee doesn't really care about the outside noise; they focus every year on making the World Series. Now the band-aid approach they take maynot be what people approve of, but year after year they continue to make the playoffs and play exciting baseball. Making the World Series is their goal, but the reality is that they have never had enough talent to make it to that spot. 

With the uber-talented Dodgers in the way, it looks like that won't be possible again. It doesn't mean the approach ownership is taking is horrible, just won't get it done in my opinion. The only way I see this working is if everything falls in place for the Brewers for this method to work. With that said I do think they will be competitive again this season.

Milwaukee has some good live pitching arms and some talented young players in the lineup. Love them or hate them, they are going to compete at a high level under manager Pat Murphy.

USA Hockey Stuns Canada In Overtime To Win Gold Medal

 When the Olympics started, no one thought Team USA could medal except maybe themselves, but the doubt fueled them. Each and every game seems like them against the world, and I think they relished the underdog role. After the smoke cleared, Team USA came away with a hard-fought 2-1 victory in overtime and became the Gold Medal champions.

Through all the adversity Team USA went through, they persevered and became champions. This is one of the best Gold Medal games I've seen in a very long time. Props need to go to Team Canada as well. They fought hard and never gave up. Both teams should be very proud of the effort given today.

This is what Olympic Hockey is all about: two teams battling to the end. Just think in four more years, we could see the same two teams again. No one can complain about this hockey tournament, as we got to see high-caliber hockey play.

Canada Stops USA In Overtime But Hockey Fans The Real Winners.

 Team Canada got revenge on Team USA with a 3-2 win in overtime to claim the title and celebrate as the big winner in this tournament. The 4 Nations Face-Off was some of the best hockey I have seen in a very long time. All the games were very enjoyable to watch no matter the country you were rooting for in this classic tournament. 

The real winners in this tournament were fans of hockey who got treated to some of the best hockey in the world. Many times when you have these kinds of tournaments the best players do not play or even try. This was the totally opposite where the top players showed up and showed out game after game. 

One of the changes I would like to see is more countries represented in this tournament. There are so many great players that represent other countries that were not there and that is a shame. By getting more countries involved you will have even more interest in this tournament and the sport of hockey.

I really have no complaints about this tournament except too short and not enough teams. Once other countries get involved this could grow so big it will make hockey a sport that everyone wants to see and play as well. Well done tournament and props to everyone involved in this great spectacle.

Browns fire OC Ken Dorsey, OL coach Andy Dickerson According To Sources

 The Cleveland Browns have fired OL Coach Andy Dickerson and OC Ken Dorsey, moves that did not surprise anyone. This season the Browns have been downright pathetic on offense and you could see this coming game after game. The real question is will this change anything at all.

The Cleveland Browns have so many deep-rooted problems that firing one or two guys will not solve them. From the outside looking in, the Browns are not very talented at all. Drafting has been a real issue with this team. When they get good players, they do not seem to be able to develop them. Those players leave and become successful elsewhere. A prime example is Baker Mayfield. 

Cleveland has a lot more house cleaning to do in my opinion. They are in need of some quality coaches and players and quickly. Looking at next year's schedule it is going to be tough for them. They need to address the quarterback room and they could use a good running back. If Cleveland keeps running out the same players and system as this year the same results will happen.

Let's hope Cleveland takes their time and make some smart decisions in the off-season and not just do nothing. The Browns fans deserve better than what happened this season. Myles Garrett said it best this season was worse than the 0-16 season.

Will The Brewers Keep Or Move on From Christian Yelich

 Christian Yelich is a baseball player you can’t help but root for year after year. The problem, it seems, is that he cannot stay healthy no matter how hard he tries. When the Brewers got him and he became an MVP, everything seemed to be going right for him. Injuries, though, derail the promising hopes and dreams of Yelich and the Brewers.

Over the last few years, he has struggled with various ailments, and recently, his ailing back has been an issue. He has never returned to his MVP form. In 2024, though, he was putting together an excellent season before the back problems again ended it for him.

The Brewers organization has a tough decision ahead in 2025. Do they give him another year? Or do they trade him away before he gets hurt again? His salary is very high and the Brewers are always looking to save money. He plays the outfield which the Brewers have deep stock through their farm system.

I think Milwaukee will decide on the all-star break. If he is struggling I think there is a good chance they trade him away. It will save them money and they will get something for him. I’m hoping he retires a Brewer, but I just don’t see it.

We Will See If Baker Mayfield Was Worth The Money This Sunday Against Atlanta

 This past Monday Night was very costly for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as they lost both wideouts Mike Evans and Chris Godwin. Evans should be back in a few weeks, but Godwin will be gone for the season it looks like right now. Tampa Bay has a tough three-game stretch ahead with Atlanta, Kansas City, and San Francisco. Losing their top two receivers hurts, but the next man-up mentality will need to occur.

When the Buccaneers signed Baker Mayfield to an extension, we will find out if he was worth the money. Mayfield will get a chance to lead the Buccaneers without two of their biggest stars, so a lot of pressure will be on his shoulders. Buccaneer fans will be able to see if he can handle it and if he should be rewarded another contract in the future.

Mayfield is going to have to trust the players he has left on offense. No more Godwin or Evans to rely on any longer. The running game that has come to life recently will need be used even more in games. Taking some of the pressure off of Baker Mayfield is also very important. You can't expect Mayfield to do it all, but he cannot throw interceptions or turn the ball over.

This game is huge for the Buccaneers and Baker Mayfield. They have already lost to Atlanta and cannot afford another letdown. Divisional games are always tight and this one will probably be the same way as the last one that went overtime.
