   FATHER TIME IS UNDEFEATED

When an athlete reaches 35, nine times out of ten their best days are well behind them. Generally speaking, and depending on the sport, a player reaches their prime between 26-32 before they start to decline. Naturally, there are exceptions to every rule. Some players excel well before 26 and some past 32 but the exceptions are few and far between. 

Tom Brady playing quarterback into his mid 40's and winning games isn't the norm. It's the exception. Unfortunately, Brady has set the standard for other players to believe if they take care of their bodies, they too can play the game they love well past their prime and be effective. 

As we watch Aaron Rodgers, quarterback for the New York Jets, struggle with all the talent he has around him, we are reminded how father time is undefeated. Rodgers should have retired when he injured his Achilles at the start of last season. However, thanks to Tom Brady setting the standard, Rodgers who clearly had more talent than Tom bought into the ide he too could play effectively well into his 40's. 

The Jets have given Rodgers everything he's wanted from coaches to receivers and it's resulted in a 3-7 team that averages 17.7 points per game. Adding Devante Adams, was supposed to be the missing piece to put the Jets on the right path to becoming a winning team this season. Adams has proven the Raiders were right to let him go and save the money they were paying him. The Rodgers to Adams connection they had in Green Bay no longer exists. Is it because of Rodgers decline or Adams? It's probably both but Aaron Rodgers is definitely done and so are the New York Jets. New York owner Woody Johnson thought Rodgers would take the Jets from being Spirit Airlines to Delta and he ended up with a Boeing 727.

The reason Tom Brady played as long as he did in the NFL is New England and Tampa Bay made sure he had the best offensive line they could out together. They understood if they protected Tom, he'd deliver. I look at Joe Burrow in Cincinnati and know if they don't do something to protect him, he's going to be out of football within five years and he's just now entering his prime. Rodgers had decent offensive lines in Green Bay, but the New York Jets have failed to meet those standards. Maybe if the Jets had a decent offensive line, Rodgers could sit in the pocket and pick teams apart but he doesn't have time to it. When you add his diminished skills  to the equation, you get 3-7. 

The Los Angeles Lakers LeBron James is another exception to the rule. He has given father time the finger so far but we all know in the back of our minds, James is one Achilles pop away from the end of his career. As we watch LeBron, who will turn 40 on December 30th, you can see him starting to fade but he's so dynamic, he's still one of the best players in the NBA. Unfortunately for the NBA, as James career starts to fade so is the popularity of the league. When LeBron James retires, the NBA is going to have a major identity problem and being good enough to win 50 games to make the playoffs won't save it. I'm not sure a player like Victor Wembanyama can save the league as believed. He's a decent player who can put up a lot of stats but San Antonio is as forgettable as a one night stand with a Kardashian. 

As an owner of a franchise, you really have to be Kenny Rodgers and know when to hold'em, know when to fold'em, know when to walk away and know when to run. Hanging on to a player past his prime hoping to squeeze a few more years out of them isn't the way you play poker unless you have the extremely rare exception to the rule.

Who Holds The NFL Records For Sacks? 

(See The Answer Below)

 THE LIFE OF A KICKER

I can't think of a cooler position to play in the NFL than a kicker. Sure, it's a thankless position but you get paid well and all you have to be is efficient at kicking a ball without taking all the hits unless you get in the way. 

As I watched San Francisco kicker Jake Moody miss three field goal attempts on Sunday against Tampa Bay, I thought his days were numbers and they still might be but a win at least gives Jake time to get his act together and save his job. Younghoe Koo had the same thing happen to him costing the Atlanta Falcons a win at New Orleans. His job might not be as safe as Moody, but he'll most likely get a chance to redeem himself in week 11 because Atlanta is in first place. 

The fact still remains if you are consistent like Brandon Aubrey at Dallas, who can kick up to 60 yard field goals and make extra points, you can eek out a pretty nice lifestyle as an NFL kicker. Unless you're Harrison Butker at Kansas City, you can live a low profile and go about your business with very little interference. You can go out to dinner with your family and go virtually unnoticed. You can take a peaceful bike ride as long as int's not in New Jersey and no one is going to bother you. 

All it takes is leg strength and accuracy and no ego and you're set for life.

  LIFE AFTER LEBRON

The NBA has a popularity problem and when LeBron James decides to retire, the NBA is going to have to manufacture a miracle to survive and it might take more money then China can afford to do it. 

While attendance still seems to be fine for the NBA, the lack of viewership on TV indicates we are starting to see attendance erode because fewer and fewer people are watching which leads to disinterest in the sport. I hear more and more fans say they only tune in to watch the last five minutes of a game because it's all that matters. Fans would rather watch the highlights and go do other things than watch an entire game with nothing but dunks and 3 point shots. 

It costs a small fortune for fans to go to games today because players who couldn't hold Michael Jordan's jock are demanding $40 million a year and getting it. Eventually fans are going to say fuck it to high prices and if they're not watching, the league will hit the skids. 

Then for fans who can't afford to go to games, the NBA blacks out home games unless they  subscribe to a local affiliate stream. Even if you subscribe to NBA League Pass, you can't watch your home team unless you subscribe to the local home affiliate stream too. The NBA is gouging fans at every level and fans are getting tired of it. Especially when they're having a hard time paying their bills. 

The NBA better take a good long look in the mirror at how greed is starting to kill interest in the game and make some adjustments or they could find themselves where they were in 1979 before Magic and Bird, saved the NBA because I don't see a savior coming soon.

NBA MOUNT RUSHMORE 

TEAM BY TEAM 

The NBA Mount Rushmore debate is one of the all time great debates in sports. This season, Big 4 Sports is going to go team by team and post their Mount Rushmore. The Presidential Mount Rushmore features four figures, but in typical Big 4 Sports fashion, we're going to change it up a bit. Our Team by Team Mount Rushmore will feature 5 figure heads because an NBA starting lineup features 5 players. 

A new team's Mount Rushmore will be posted every Monday throughout the NBA Season. 

Jerry West- Kareem Abul Jabbar- Magic Johnson- Kobe Bryant- Shaquille O'Neal 

Willis Reed- Walt Frazier- Bernard King- Patrick Ewing- Carmelo Anthony 

Steph Curry- Wilt Chamberlain- Rick Berry- Chris Mullen- Klay Thompson

Bill Russell- Larry Bird- John Havlicek- Kevin McHale- Paul Pierce 

Coming on 11.18.24

Here are key dates to be aware of for the upcoming NBA Season;

• In-Season Tournament: November 12 - December 17, 2024
• Christmas Day Games: December 25, 2024 San Antonio Vs New York Knicks Minnesota Vs Dallas Philadelphia Vs Boston Los Angeles Lakers Vs Golden State Denver Vs Phoenix
• Martin Luther King Jr. Day Games: January 20, 2025
• NBA All-Star Weekend: February 14-16, 2025
• End of Regular Season: April 14, 2025
• NBA Play-In Tournament: April 16-19, 2025
• Start of NBA Playoffs: April 21, 2025
• NBA Finals: June 2025

THE WINTER MEETINGS   

As we get closer to Thanksgiving, we're going to see baseball take a breather until the Winter Meetings get underway on December 9th and then we might see a few Christmas miracles. 

We might see some of the lower level free agents get signed but for the most part, the big name free agents will have to go first so teams can see how much money they'll have for the remaining free agents. This said, I wouldn't expect too many surprises. I believe most teams are going to try and hold on to their big name free agents. Juan Soto will get paid by the Yankees and Pete Alonzo will get paid by the New York Mets and the rest will fall into place. 

As far as trades go, we may see quite a few happen during the Winter Meetings. As more and more teams are trying to build through their farm systems, it will lead to teams assessing their needs and looking to fill them through trades more than free agency. You can look at any team in both leagues and see where the holes are. Pitching is probably going to get the most action between teams because you have to be ten deep with a starting rotation today. That's five with the major league team and five at AAA ready to throw in the show at anytime. 

You'll have teams who are one or maybe two regulars away from contending that will make moves to sure up those positions that will happen between now and the start of the season. Other teams may just need to sure up their bench but all teams have holes to fill so expect the trade market to be hot this offseason.

COACHES HOT SEAT 

Enough hockey has been played this season to where we are starting to see what teams are the contenders and which ones are the pretenders. Fortunes can change through trades and teams getting hot but there are several teams who are underperforming that might get a boost from a coaching change. The challenge is, are there enough qualified coaches available for the teams in need of a change to hire? This is why teams in need of a change should make a move mow to get the best coaches waiting on the sidelines for a new opportunity. 

There are also teams who are who they are and won't contend even if they change coaches and I believe they know who they are. These are the teams who rarely have winning seasons and have no intentions of investing in improvement. Teams like Anaheim, Columbus, and San Jose. Then you have the teams who are rebuilding who will want to stay the coarse which is the majority of teams within a few points of the division leaders. 

There is one team that has a history of putting a Stanley Cup winner on the ice that could use a coaching change more than any other team and that's the Pittsburgh Penguins. Mike Johnson has failed to get the Penguins to the playoffs over the past two seasons and they are struggling again this season. Pittsburgh has fired coaches in the past for a lot less. Why Pittsburgh, stays with Johnson is anybody's guess. 

The team has severe problems with their goalie situation and their defense isn't as sharp as it  could be. The ages of Sidney Crosby, Evengi Malkin, and Kris Letang also create perception the Penguins are just too old to compete over an 82 game schedule. The Penguins have the players to compete and most of their problems could be solved with better coaching and it starts with Mike Johnson and he needs to go because we haven't seen any improvement under his watch over the past two plus seasons. 

At this point Pittsburgh is only 10 points or 5 games behind New Jersey and there is time to turn this season around but I don't believe Johnson is going to do anything different to improve the team or he would have already. There is also the possibility the Penguins front office know who they are which is becoming a bottom feeding franchise in the Eastern Conference and they're okay with it.

Here is the 2024 Big 4 Sports Demons 

Fantasy Football Team 

WEEK 10 Recap

The Big 4 Sports Demons won big in week 10 putting up 136 points to take the lead in points scored for the league and we moved into second place with a 7-3 record. There are 5 games left and the rest of our games are against teams in the lower level so I like out chances to pull this season out in first place. There are two bye weeks coming for players who are on the bench so our best players are good to go barring any injuries. I don't see us making any roster moves for week 11.
