Introducing...#QuickTakes!

Hey there, readers! Do you ever get tired of long, fact-filled sports articles? I do too, and I’m the one writing them! That’s why I’m introducing #QuickTakes, articles that will only feature my first reaction to breaking news, based solely on emotion! No more endless statistics and boring logic! And you get in on it too, just leave your own #QuickTakes in the comments section or tweet me (@GSRudy). Let it begin!

 1.      Pro Bowl changes- Okay, so this morning it was announced that the Pro Bowl will now feature a fantasy draft-type system, with Deion Sanders and Jerry Rice acting as captains, among other changes. BUT THEY STILL HAVEN’T SCHEDULED IT AFTER THE SUPER BOWL. WHY SHOULD PLAYING IN THE SUPER BOWL COME WITH THE PUNISHMENT OF NOT BEING ABLE TO GO TO THE PRO BOWL? IT’S NOT FAIR. NEXT.

2.      Training camp fights- Apparently, there was a brawl at Tennessee Titans training camp involving 20 players. Here’s my question: why only 20 guys? The other 70 guys clearly aren’t committed to the team if they won’t fight for (with?) their teammates. Cut them all.

3.      Brandon Jennings is now a Piston- whatever. I don’t really care. The real tragedy is that Monta Ellis, who also left Milwaukee recently, didn’t go back to the Warriors. He and Steph Curry were one of the NBA 2k shooting combos of all time. It will always be 2012 at my house!

4.      Steve Nash tried out for a soccer team- Pancakes. Jokes. Movies. Slinkys. Inflatable flailing men. Steve Nash. What are…things that flop? WINNER.

That’s our first #QuickTakes in the bag, folks. I’m looking forward to reading all of yours. In fact, I might even choose a few of my favorites to feature on the next article. See ya!
