(9-26-19): Just a little over a week ago, things seemed steady in the world of sports. The NFL season had finally kicked off, and Antonio Brown was once again lighting up the league with the New England Patriots, and we all thought the well-oiled dynasty would continue on. That is, until Brown sent some risky text messages. We’re here to discuss that situation, Calvin Johnson’s Sports Illustrated article, Eli Manning’s Hall of Fame worthiness, and more!
