In what was suppose to be a super marriage made in heaven, Dwight Howard seem to have had his fair share of life in the big city!! the Georgia Native never fit in during his first season with

8. 2013
MLB Steroid Suspensions and the squeezing of A-Rod August 2013
In recent years we have all seen the fall of great a many athletes to steroids and PED accusations. In a precedent set by major baseball they suspended over 13 players with 50 game suspensions. The most notable suspensions came from (2) two men Milwaukee Brewers Ryan Braun who vehemently denied the allegations until he finally came clean with his come to "Jesus Moment. "( insert praying hands emojii) This guy! Milwaukee Brewers star former MVP Ryan Braun, has long served as the face of the MLB’s BioGenesis investigation. Braun’s acceptance of a 65-game suspension legitimized the evidence garnered from Bosch's testimony and BioGenesis’ records, and all but ensured that A-Rod would face a similar, if not lengthier ban of his own. In my opinion the most egregious offender for the past decade in the World of sports was finally awarded the largest suspension in Baseball History the $400 million dollar man Alex Rodriguez, AROD, the DARK KNIGHT, the Dominican wunderkind is appealing his 211 game suspension. This should probably have its own archive but I will report on this matter in detail going back all the way to his Texans days but for now. A-Rod has even admitted he used PED's long before BIOGenesis' came to surface, that's the real problem here. A -Rod is a liar.. here is his email excerpt courtesy of New York Post:
“Can u please stop!!” Rodriguez wrote to Levine on Aug. 3, according to the magazine. “I want to play baseball and I could make a big difference to the game. [George] Steinbrenner would roll in his grave IF he knew what was happening! Stop, Randy, this isn’t going to be good for any of us!! You are a businessman and what you are doing is ruining the business of baseball. If u want to meet in person to discuss it, let’s do it!”
Two days later, Levine reportedly responded.
“I received your email, the contents of which are a complete shock to me,” Levine wrote, according to the magazine. “As I have repeatedly told you, this is an MLB investigation. We had no role in initiating the investigation or assisting in the direction of the investigation.
“Despite your continued false accusations (which you know are false) we have acted consistently. My focus and direction, as well as that of the entire Yankees organization, has been, and continues to be, to treat you in the same manner as we do all of our players, to have you healthy and ready to play as soon as possible. Good luck.”
That same day the 211 day suspension was handed down for his involvement with BIOGENESIS he is still fighting the suspension. #MLB #Baseball #suspensions #steroids #FreeAgents #SportsNoire
7. Concussions and Settlement August 2013
In what I say is only the beginning the NFL made a record settlement with the various players who were mentioned in lawsuit. This was important as many of my clients and friends play in National Football League. I hope to see more prevention and a greater care in how athletes are protected with the advance of textiles and Nanotechnology we will begin to see more advanced protection for athletes over the coming years.
The NFL has reached a tentative $765 million settlement over concussion-related brain injuries among its 18,000 retired players, agreeing to compensate victims, pay for medical exams and underwrite research.#NFL #Concussion #headInjury #relentless
6. The Catfishing of Manti Teo
In the most Strange Football
NFL story of all time.. Manti Teo went from being belle of the ball to Internet pervert. It was painful to watch this kid squirm when asked by Katie Couric " did you have a hand in this" Listen we all know that boy knew him, and Lenny would ride off into the sunset. I don't have to recap this mess. As strange as it is, soon as dead spin announced this story I was like "WHATTTTTT???? c'mon son" Teo says he has moved on from the situation and is now looking to help
Chargers make it to Super Bowl
5. Lights Go out During Superbowl.
As a big time Madden fan I hate even playing on the sticks in the "Voodoo" Dome. Last Jan we saw in live fashion why the New Orleans Super Dome is haunted. Call it the ghosts of all the people who died during the 3 day waiting period of the FEMA response to the citizens of New Orleans. Everyone has there theories I have man. Needless to say the Ravens WON and the rest is history but it was a great game and exciting time despite the outage.
The Last 4 stories I didn't particularly want to rank because they are so shocking that some one may be offended by the order of importance. However, I know you will recap and recall these events.
4. Lance Armstrong Stripped of his 7 Tour De France titles and lifetime ban of sport
This one I can not lie, I never believed it would have happened I thought that it was a witch hunt but.... #fromthefile #DUH #Doper #Roids #NoLanceNo
"Armstrong's interview with Le Monde was surprising on many levels, not least because of his long-antagonistic relationship with the respected French daily that first reported in 1999 that corticosteroids were found in the American's urine as he was riding his way to the first of his seven Tour wins. In response, Armstrong had complained that he was being persecuted by "vulture journalism, desperate journalism."
Now seemingly prepared to let bygones be bygones, Armstrong told Le Monde that he still considers himself the record-holder for Tour victories, even though all seven of his titles were stripped from him last year for doping. He also said his life has been ruined by the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency investigation that exposed as lies his years of denials that he and his teammates doped."
He went on Oprah to clear his chest and come to the lord. ehh who likes bike riding anyway.
3.Presumed Murderous Oscar Pistorious
When I was a Kid I saw all the movies and never did I imagine I would be able to witness the real life blade runner! During the 2012 London Olympics like most my Mumm was so impressed by the South African Duestch "wunderkind" that she would call me proclaiming how amazing he was. Never in a million years did we imagine he would be on trail for Shooting his model girl friend. Mr. Pistorious is scheduled back in court March 2014
2. The injury of Kobe and Return all in 2013
With only around 600 points until he passes the GOAT Kobe Bryant tried to carry his LAKERS to the finals playing in a must win playoff game he tears his Achilles tendon. King Kobe Returned this Fall only 8 months from the tear. ***Update*** Kobe is out for 6 weeks with fracture to his tibia. He is also scheduled to start All-Star Weekend. Kobe is still recovering but is optimistic about his future as a Laker. Rest Well Kobe #Kobe #KobeBryant #KB24 #BlackMamba
1. the Boston Marathon Attack
This was probably the Most Horrible of All events that happened in the history of sports. I want to focus on the solidarity that came out of this sad event. Boston Salute for standing strong despite, the forces of darkness who try and damper that unyielding human Spirit. The United States is a place where you can get back up start over again no matter what the trials we face. I started to see more people running and 2014 Boston Marathon will be the biggest yet! Happy New Year everyone!! #Boston #Boston Marathon #Resolve #motivation #Multisportking
