Week 3 Review of the NFL
Standard
The Classic Pretender
It seems that once the Houston Texans franchise became a contender, they would always manage to squander their opportunity when they would play the New England Patriots.
NFC East
Standard1. Dallas Cowboys
There’s far too much talent on this team for them not to win the division.
2. Washington Redskins
Things are starting to look better for them. Kirk Cousins looks like a legitimate franchise QB.

A big free agent investment on defense puts less pressure on the offense to score 30+ points per game.
4. Philadelphia Eagles
The Chip Kelly era is over. Even most die hard Eagles fans will give them a pass this year to undo everything.
2016 MLB Trade Deadline Review
Standard

This will be the first time the MLB All-Star game will be played at the San Diego Padres new ballpark. It was first opened back in 2004.

Regardless of who should or shouldn’t be in the game lets just accept that the best players will always be involved one way or another. Here are my all-stars keeping with the rules that every team be represented and a total of 34 players for each league.
