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.

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.

I'm Gail Nobles, and you're listening to EPS.

The Philadelphia Eagles are still on top. They beat the Kansas City Chiefs 21 to 17 final on Monday night. The Eagles are now 9-1. If only the Chiefs could have scored more in the second half. However it was a great game. The Eagles were playing against the Buffalo Bills on Sunday, and the Chiefs will play against the Raiders next on Sunday.

I believe the Chiefs and the Eagles both are going to win their next game. Like I said, the Eagles are 9 and 1. The Buffalo Bills are 6 and 5, The Chiefs are 7 and 3, and the Raiders are 5 and 6.

Keep in mind that sometimes in the NFL the lowest ranking teams rise to the top. Teams that perform poorly sometimes improve and achieve success in the NFL. Just because a team is low in ranking does not mean they cannot rise to the top and compete successfully in the league. But this coming Sunday, we shall see.

Hello I'm Gail Nobles thank you for tuning in to EPS. What's going on in the drag racing world? The first time I saw something about drag racing was back in 2001. 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.

I'm Gail Nobles. Today’s topic: Pro Stock

The Philadelphia Eagles and the Kansas City Chiefs are two top teams that will be playing against each other Monday night.


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.

Christy Mathewson nicknamed "Big Six", "the Christian Gentleman", "Matty", and "the Gentleman's Hurler", was a Major League Baseball right-handed pitcher, who played 17 seasons with the New York Giants. He stood 6 ft 1 in tall and weighed 195 pounds. He was among the most dominant pitchers in baseball history, and ranks in the all-time top 10 in several key pitching categories, including wins, shutouts, and earned run average. In 1936, Mathewson was elected into the Baseball Hall of Fame as one of its first five members.

Mathewson grew up in Factoryville, Pennsylvania, and began playing semiprofessional baseball when he was 14 years old. He played in the minor leagues in 1899, recording a record of 21 wins and two losses. He pitched for the New York Giants the next season, but was sent back to the minors. He eventually returned to the Giants, and went on to win a National League record 373 career games, tied Grover Cleveland Alexander for the third most career wins of all time. He led the Giants to their first World Series championship in franchise history in the 1905 World Series by pitching a single World Series record three shutouts.

The longest all-time winning streak that the Kansas City Chiefs have over the Ravens is four games, which started on December 20, 2015 with a 34 to 14 win and lasted until September 28, 2020.

The Eagles are at the top with the most wins in the NFL so far. They have seven wins so far this year of 2023 in regular season.

Will the Panthers get back up to the top in standings? They have only won one game this year.

The Philadelphia Eagles will play against the Dallas Cowboys tomorrow and they are five and two, and the Eagles are seven and one. It might get hard for the Eagles to stay at the top considering other teams that are playing well. There are always changes as far as people on the team getting injuries or just things happening unexpected.

The Carolina Panthers will play against the Indianapolis Colts tomorrow. The Colts are three and five and the Panthers are one and six. Come on Panthers! You have got to win!

People try to predict the future outcomes in sports. Some give up on their favorite team when they don't do so well. Its possible for the Carolina Panthers to improve. They could make a comeback. We'll just have to wait and see.
