PORT JEFF, we’ve been doing this for long enough, let’s just jump into our topics, Ranger’s overhaul continues, NFL postseason predictions, bring back Pete!
The Rangers overhaul continues. In the blink of an eye, the New York Rangers have transitioned from Stanley Cup contenders a rebuilding phase Kaapo Kakko, who was once considered a cornerstone of the team, has been traded to Seattle for some picks. In my experience of watching sports, I cannot recall a team falling apart as quickly and suddenly as the Rangers. They started the season 12-4 and appeared primed for another deep run; since then, they have gone 3-11 and seem to have fully embraced a rebuild mode. If had asked anyone a year ago which New York team had a chance to win a championship, it would have the Rangers., things can change in a York minute.
NFL postseason predictions It is officially time where we all make our predictions on who may win their division in the dwindling weeks of the season, followed, of course, by conference and eventually who will the Super Bowl. Most the division races are locked already the Bucs and Rams are the two teams that have not officially clinched their divisions yet but should do in the coming weeks. The reason highlighted these two teams in particular I believe they have shot to make some real in the postseason. Everyone knows how good the NFC is, so I am not going to make a boring pick like taking the Eagles, Lions, or the Vikings to represent the conference in the Super Bowl. Instead, I think of the seven teams to qualify, the dark horse is the LA Rams, with Tampa Bay a close second. The Rams have been there and done it before with Kupp, Nacua, and Kyren Williams all finally healthy at the same time, I think this Rams team make some real noise if they do not stub toe in the final three games of the seasons. Therefore, they are my pick to represent the NFC.
bring Pete home! There has been much speculation as to where Pete Alonso will end up, and in my opinion, the Mets can’t afford to let him go elsewhere. With everyone still buzzing from the addition of Juan Soto the Mets need to bring their homegrown slugger. Since his debut in 2019, Alonso has been at top of every power category in baseball However, it is more than just his stats; the intangibles Pete brings day and day out are irreplaceable. He has played at least 150 games in every full season the Mets have had. There is something to be said about having a core of players who have been through the rough times Nimmo, Lindor and Alonso all fit that bill. If the Mets can bring the polar bear back it would make them the NL East favorite.
