Overall Record ( 117-108 52%)

Reviewing yesterday's MLB NRFI/YRFI (No Run First Inning/Yes Run First Inning) outcomes, the results showed a challenging day with several losses across the board. Let's review these outcomes before moving on to today’s game predictions.

Yesterday’s Results: Record 4-10

  • Arizona vs St. Louis: Strong NRFI - Result: Loss
  • NY Mets vs SF Giants: Strong NRFI - Result: Win
  • Baltimore vs LA Angels: Very Strong NRFI - Result: Win

  • Toronto vs Kansas City: Strong NRFI - Result: Loss
  • Houston vs Chi Cubs: Strong NRFI - Result: Loss
  • Seattle vs Texas: Strong NRFI - Result: Loss
  • San Diego vs Colorado: Pass - Result: Pass

A day filled with various outcomes, with a notable number of NRFI predictions not holding up, indicating the variability and unpredictability in early-game scoring dynamics.

Today’s Predictions:

  • Milwaukee vs Pittsburgh: Strong NRFI (Home/Away Averages: 69.70%)
  • Chi Sox vs Minnesota: Strong NRFI (Home/Away Averages: 65.74%)
  • Boston vs Cleveland: Strong NRFI (Home/Away Averages: 74.25%)

  • LA Dodgers vs Washington: Strong NRFI (Home/Away Averages: 65.91%)
  • Oakland vs NY Yankees: Strong NRFI (Home/Away Averages: 62.50%)

I have added the averages which is how I am automating the plays. I think we probably need to layer a bit more on here to make these even more accurate, comment out how we can improve the model and lets get to work!

Today continues with a strong emphasis on NRFI outcomes, reinforcing confidence in many teams' ability to control early-game runs. The strategic pass for San Diego vs Colorado acknowledges the uncertainty and balance of outcomes in that matchup, mirroring the closely matched team dynamics.

Enjoy the games today, and best of luck with your predictions. Always engage in sports betting responsibly and enjoy the excitement of each play!

Final 2024 First Round Mock (With Trades)

Seattle Sport News Reddit - Wed, 04/24/2024 - 22:13

Before I get started, I quickly want to preface and say that this is a “what I would do mock”, not a “predictive mock”. Put shortly, I think predictive mocks are ultimately a waste of time since nobody, not even the “draft experts” can get it right. It’s like trying to predict every game of March Madness. But hey, if you like predictive mocks, I get it, just wanted to say that this is not one of those. For those of you who are still here, let’s get started.

Round 1, Pick 1 - Chicago Bears Caleb Williams - QB (USC) For a brief moment there after the Super Bowl the NFL media got bored and tried to question whether or not Caleb would go number 1 overall or not. I’m glad that phase has come and gone. Caleb is the easy number 1 overall pick here; the best QB prospect we’ve seen in a while goes to a team who needs a QB. Simple as that.

Round 1, Pick 2 - Washington Commanders Drake Maye - QB (UNC) I never thought this would be a highly-contested pick, but here we are. In my opinion, Drake Maye should be the clear number 2 QB off the board. He’s big, athletic, possesses great arm talent, and did everything you could’ve asked him to do in the pre-draft process. I believe the only reason this is even a question is because we are in what I like to call the “football overthink phase” of the NFL calendar - that time of the year in between the end of the Super Bowl and the first night of the draft where the media has nothing to talk about, so they have to make up content to keep up the revenue stream for these 2.5 months.That’s why I think we’re hearing all this Jayden Daniels talk at #2 overall. Maye has been the pick at this spot for about a year now, and I haven’t seen anything that should suggest that anything else should be different.

Round 1, Pick 3 - Minnesota Vikings (Trade with NE) Jayden Daniels - QB (LSU) And all of that is to say I still like Daniels as a QB prospect. There’s been a lot of rumors going around with what happens with this pick, but ultimately I chose Minnesota to trade up to here because 1: their trade with the Texans signals that they want to trade up for a QB and 2: NE has openly said they’d be willing to trade out of this pick, so this made a lot of sense. Now on to Daniels: he’s a good pocket passer with an admittedly average arm who can also run. Let me re-emphasize that: he can RUN, not SCRAMBLE. The biggest issue I have with Daniels is that when escapes the pocket, he’s not looking to extend the passing down, it’s an immediate tuck and run. Which is still valuable, but not as valuable as having the “play-making gene”. Regardless, I think O’Connell can do some nifty stuff with Daniels in the pocket and design some good runs for him. The fit works pretty well. (Important sidebar - if the Commanders actually does go with Daniels at 2, I’d stay at 3 and pick Maye if I were New England)

Round 1, Pick 4 - Arizona Cardinals Marvin Harrison Jr. - WR (OSU) We all know who MHJ is as a player and how talented he is (I think he’s one of the best prospects we’ve seen in the past 5 years regardless of position), so there’s not much to say on that end. What I will address is the notion that some have that Arizona should trade out of this pick to a team who’s desperate for a QB. The reason I have an issue with this is let’s not forget why you trade back to begin with - it’s to use that capital to actually pick good players. Arizona has already done plenty of trading back- to trade back over and over again without ever picking any players defeats the whole point of trading back. It would be like selling a sports car but not investing the proceeds into anything else. Arizona should stay put and draft the generational prospect.

Round 1, Pick 5 - Los Angeles Chargers Rome Odunze - WR (Washington) I know I’m probably the only person who has this take, so allow me to explain myself. I see Odunze and Nabers as two amazing prospects who I have similar grades on, but for very different reasons. They both excel at VERY different things. And given who’s picking here - the Harbaugh-led Chargers, I think Odunze makes more sense for the scheme and personnel. Herbert can dial up some AMAZING 1 on 1 balls for Odunze that he’ll come down with more often than not. Plus, and this might be one of my more scorching-hot takes - I think Quentin Johnston could still be an effective WR in the NFL if he was played out of the slot. After all, that’s how he won in college. Therefore, putting Odunze as the true X receiver in this specific offense makes a lot of sense to me.

Round 1, Pick 6 - New York Giants Malik Nabers - WR (LSU) And the city of New York rejoices! Look, whether it’s Odunze or Nabers here, the only way this doesn’t work well for the Giants is if they walk away from this draft with neither of these players. Nabers is an incredibly gifted WR. His separation ability is next to none, and he should provide a sign of life to a Giants offense that has been devoid of that for years now.

Round 1, Pick 7 - Tennessee Titans Joe Alt - OT (Notre Dame) This is one of the chalkiest picks in the draft, and I’m not gonna be the one to challenge the chalk here. Joe Alt is a blue-chip LT and the Titans OL is far and away the worst unit on this roster. Alt is the “Tim Duncan”, the “Mr. Fundamental” of OL play. What he does isn’t flashy, but man it’s effective and he wins often. Massive pickup for the Titans.

Round 1, Pick 8 - Atlanta Falcons Laiatu Latu - EDGE (UCLA) A lot of people wonder when the first defensive player will be picked in this draft, and I see no reason why it shouldn’t be to Atlanta. Latu is my favorite defensive prospect in this draft and does still fill a massive need for ATL. His only real knocks are that he’s an “average athlete” (not even a bad one! Major grasping at straws here) and that he’s got an injury history. But considering that the injuries haven’t been an issue for a long time for Latu, I’m not worried in the slightest about that. I also like him a little bit more than Dallas Turner, who’s a common pick at this spot, but more on that later.

Round 1, Pick 9 - Cincinnati Bengals Brock Bowers - TE (Georgia) This is where I start to have some fun. The way I see it, there’s nobody that Chicago ABSOLUTELY has to take, and given the uncertainty around the Tee Higgins situation combined with the Bengal’s existing lack of TE, this really starts to make some sense. The Bengals are a well-built team right now, and if they want to compete with Kansas City in the AFC, they need to make a win-now move or two. It’s almost a guarantee that Bowers will be gone if they wait around at 18, so if they want a big time talent, they need to make the big time move.

Round 1, Pick 10 - New York Jets Taliese Fuaga - OL (Oregon State) New York is in a weird spot right now. They have the OL to compete now, but ONLY when the tackles are healthy. They could certainly stand to upgrade one of the guard spots too. This is why Fuaga is the perfect fit for them. On my board, he’s the OL with the best tackle-guard versatility, so he can start at guard in the short term and transition to tackle as needed. If Bowers were here this would be the pick, but in this world where Cincy gets aggressive, the Jets can still get a good player in Fuaga.

Round 1, Pick 11 - New England Patriots (Trade with MIN) Olu Fashanu - OT (Penn State) On paper, the New England Patriots just might have the worst offense in the NFL. Rhamondre Stevenson is MAYBE an above average NFL back, but that’s about all they got going for them. That being said, they’re in a position where they need to just take the best offensive prospect on the board, and to me that’s Olu Fashanu. I am much higher on Fashanu than most. He has impeccable movement skills for a pass blocker, so he’s a plug and play immediately at the LT spot. I understand the concerns with the strength profile, but this dude is young and definitely has the frame to add a few more pounds of muscle. At the very worst he has the exact profile of a blind side protector. This doesn’t fix their QB issue immediately, but I’d rather not reach on a QB if I don’t have to. There’s still plenty of draft left.

Round 1, Pick 12 - Chicago Bears (Trade with DEN) Dallas Turner - EDGE (Alabama) Man, the Bears are having some FUN in this draft. Playing the ol’ slingshot move to trade back then up again to land a prospect you really like. And the Bears get the player many suspect they’d pick at 9 anyway. Plus, given the current state of the Broncos roster and lack of draft capital, they need all the picks they can get. This feels like a good time to talk about my thoughts on the EDGE class as a whole. I think the big 3 (Verse, Latu, and Turner) are all kind of in the same tier, and then after that there’s a noticeable drop off. And while I like Latu just a little bit more than the others, I would never blame a team for wanting to go with any of these players. With the Bears, however, I like the Turner fit because I think his skills as a pass rusher complement Sweat so well that it flows perfectly into the defense. I worry a little bit about Turner’s ability to be an every-down, reliable run defender (a concern I do not have with Latu or Verse), but with a little bit of scheme work that shouldn’t be a MAJOR issue.

Round 1, Pick 13 - Las Vegas Raiders Troy Fautanu - OL (Washington) The Raiders get a chance to capitalize on this elite offensive line class given that they spent so much of free agency addressing the defensive side of the trenches. The way I currently see their OL, you have Kolton Miller holding down the LT spot, and everyone else is replacement level at best. Fautanu can be the Raiders’ new RT, and if it really doesn’t work out there (which I doubt) then you just kick him into guard. Easy.

Time to address the elephant in the room. By now you’ve probably noticed that I’ve gone through picks 11-13 without selecting another QB, most notably JJ McCarthy. So here it goes - I am much lower on McCarthy than consensus. JJ is advertised as this super “toolsy” guy with elite processing skills, but I saw neither of those things from his Michigan tape. When I look at QB prospects (or any prospect, really), I want to know what you do specifically better than everybody else. So what does JJ do really well? Arm talent? Good not great. Accuracy? Fine. Athleticism? Nothing special. Playmaking? I saw zero of that at Michigan. Even game managin, perhaps? Not at Michigan, their “game manager” was their run game. So I just don’t see the vision with him, and (spoiler alert) he’s not in my first round. And I don’t think he’s inherently a bad prospect, he’s just fallen victim to the “we have nothing to talk about between the Super Bowl and the draft so we have to make up a storyline for engagement” game. I could rant about McCarthy for much longer, but I won’t. All in all, I have a 3rd round grade on him, and I really hope he can develop into a starting-caliber QB. But I think that’s less likely than most people think. Back to the mock.

Round 1, Pick 14 - New Orleans Saints Amarius Mims - OT (Georgia) The Saints have plenty of holes on the roster, but the most obvious are the two ginormous question marks at both tackle spots. Enter Mims. Yes, he doesn’t have much starting experience. Yes, he has an injury history. But man, oh man, if he hits, he HITS. I think the Saints truly can afford to take the swing on a prospect like Mims, since their roster just doesn’t have the guns to be in “win-now” mode.

Round 1, Pick 15 - Indianapolis Colts Quinyon Mitchell - CB (Toledo) I LOVE Quinyon Mitchell. I liked his tape at Toledo, which begs the obvious question - can he hold up against better talent? To put it simply, yes he can. Normally, I don’t put too much stock into pre-draft events like the Senior Bowl, but for a small school guy like Mitchell to completely take over the Senior Bowl is truly special. I especially like seeing CBs win at the Senior Bowl, because those one-on-one drills give the WR a massive advantage (same goes for DL in the pass-rushing one-on-ones vs OL). Mitchell has asked, and answered every question you could have about him. Send the card in.

Round 1, Pick 16 - Seattle Seahawks Jackson Powers-Johnson - C (Oregon) “Positional Value” can go to hell for this pick - when you have a prospect that’s this good that fills this major of a need, you SPRINT the card in. Powers-Johnson has all-pro potential at center, and perhaps at guard if that strikes your fancy. Fortunately, the Seahawks have needs all along the interior of their offensive line, so they can just rest on their laurels of making a phenomenal pick.

Round 1, Pick 17 - Philadelphia Eagles (trade with JAX) Nate Wiggins - CB (Clemson) Gettin’ fun with it again. The Eagles desperately need a corner and this is about the range where the corner run can start. If they don’t get in now, it might be too late. Nate Wiggins is my CB2 in this class - I’m in love with his coverage abilities, overall athleticism, and ability to stay sticky in man. The size and injury concerns are legitimate, but at this point I wouldn’t let that stop me from adding a good player at a position of need. Welcome to Philly.

Round 1, Pick 18 - Denver Broncos (Trade with CHI via CIN) Bo Nix - QB (Oregon) I’ve already given the McCarthy rant, so I’m gonna spend this time talking about Nix. To me, Bo Nix is incredibly scheme-dependent. I saw him struggle mightily at Auburn, where they relied too much on him to be the “hero” of the offense. But then he transfers to Oregon where he gets to play the point guard, facilitator role, and he puts up crazy numbers week in and week out. I think Bo Nix and Denver are a good fit. I think Sean Payton wants a guy who can play the Brock Purdy role, the “just put the ball in the right place at the right time, and for the love of God don’t turn it over” role. I don’t love Nix everywhere, but I do love him here, and this might be Denver’s only shot at Nix.

Round 1, Pick 19 - Los Angeles Rams Jer’Zhan (Johnny) Newton - DT (Illinois) Now that Aaron Donald is retired, I can confidently say that just about everyone on that Rams defense is replacement level, and therefore the Rams’ best course of action is to take the best defensive player available. As of now that’s Newton. He’s put up season after season of elite tape at Illinois, rushes the passer well, and has seen every run block scheme in the world coming from the B10 West. He’s a high-floor player that would make any defense better.

Round 1, Pick 20 - Pittsburgh Steelers Kool-Aid McKinstry - CB (Alabama) When it came time to make the pick for the Steelers, it came down to picking between OL, CB, and WR. I ultimately went with CB because I think the WR/OL they could get in the 2nd round will be way better than the CB they could get in the 2nd round (I see a pretty big drop off after CB5). McKinstry is a seasoned starter against some of the best competition CFB has to offer. He’s instinctual in coverage and can be your 2nd return man with the new kickoff rule. Tomlin is gonna love this guy.

Round 1, Pick 21 - Miami Dolphins Graham Barton - OL (Duke) This pick for me was between Barton and Byron Murphy (DT from Texas), but I ultimately went with Barton because, while Barton and Murphy both play positions of need, Miami in the past has found a lot of success in drafting around their offensive identity. I think Barton is the perfect OL for McDaniels’ zone scheme. He’s such a fluid mover and is smart enough to identify blitzes as a center in the NFL. Miami fortifies an existing strength with this pick.

Round 1, Pick 22 - Jacksonville Jaguars (Trade with PHI) Brian Thomas Jr. - WR (LSU) The Jags to me have had an infuriating off-season. They gave out star level contracts to league-average players (especially on the OL). But no matter how you spin it, they still need another WR. A lot of people think Thomas Jr. can be a WR1 at the next level, but I personally see him more of a WR1b/WR2. He’s athletic as all get out, but his game is missing the kind of polish that’s needed to be a true WR1. He can play the DK Metcalf role and be WR1b in Jacksonville, and find plenty of success doing it. No matter how you spin it, there’s a place for him in this league.

Round 1, Pick 23 - New England Patriots (Trade with MIN) Michael Penix Jr. - QB (Washington) Is this the Tom Brady replacement the Pats have been looking for? Penix definitely won’t be on that level, but I know I’m higher on this guy than consensus (I almost put him at QB3 above Daniels, but I just didn’t have the guts at the end of the day). He’s an absolute savant from the pocket, has actual elite arm talent, and has proven after two quality seasons of video game numbers at UW that his injury days are behind him. He moves around better than people think he does and is a full-field processor. In other words, he’s a true quarterback, not just a thrower of the football. I’d bet serious cash on his success in the league.

Round 1, Pick 24 - Dallas Cowboys Byron Murphy - DT (Texas) The Cowboys have a knack for taking BPA in the first round regardless of need, and it usually works well for them (save the Mazi Smith pick from last year). While OL is certainly a need, interior defensive line is a sneaky need too (the aforementioned Smith is currently listed as a projected starter). Murphy is an elite run stopper given his size and definitely has some pass-rushing chops. The boys would love to have the home-town kid on their team.

Round 1, Pick 25 - Green Bay Packers Cooper DeJean - DB (Iowa) Green Bay has a well-documented need for safety, and DeJean at his very worst can be that for them. At his best, he can be a true outside corner for whoever drafts him. My concern with him is that he’s billed to be this hybrid, do-it-all defensive back, but I’m worried that he might be a “jack of all trades, master of none”. Either way, the value is too good here at pick 25, and if there’s any team out there that can find a good spot for DeJean, it's Green Bay.

Round 1, Pick 26 - Tampa Bay Buccaneers Jared Verse - EDGE (Florida State) I like Verse as someone better than the 26th overall pick, but that’s just how the board falls sometimes. Verse is a great EDGE prospect that excels at converting speed to power to get after the QB. One of my favorite traits about EDGE players is when they’re big enough/good enough to hold up in the run, and of all the EDGE prospects at the top of this draft, I have the least concern for that with Verse. Impeccable value here for the Bucs.

Round 1, Pick 27 - Arizona Cardinals Terrion Arnold - CB (Alabama) No discredit to the Cardinals here, they’re in the middle of a rebuild, but man oh man does this roster need an injection of talent at almost every position. This is truly a “choose your flavor” pick here regarding which position to take, and I went with Arnold because I think there’s a pretty decent dropoff between him and the next CB that the Cardinals could pick. Arnold has high upside and excelled at ballhawking this year, lots and lots to like.

Round 1, Pick 28 - Buffalo Bills Adonai Mitchell - WR (Texas) Adonai Mitchell has all the tools to be a WR1 in this league. For him, it’s not a matter of “can he” but more a matter of “will he”. And of all places to go, the Bills will be the ultimate test of whether or not he will, because there aren’t a lot of alternatives for receiving targets there. Mitchell has the perfect chance to prove that he can be “the guy” in Buffalo - go show me what you got.

Round 1, Pick 29 - Detroit Lions Keon Coleman - WR (Florida State) I gotta be honest, I don’t love how the board broke for Detroit here. I toyed with having them pick Zach Frazier (IOL out of West Virginia) here, but first round is a little rich for my blood for him. Instead, I’ll have them take a flier on a boom-or-bust WR prospect in Coleman. They could use one more WR in that room, and the big-bodied Coleman would be a great complement to the shifty St. Brown and the speedy Williams. I’m personally under the belief that Coleman is very likely to hit his potential as an NFL WR, and Detroit seems like a pretty good place to tap into that potential.

Round 1, Pick 30 - Baltimore Ravens JC Latham - OT (Alabama) Latham is another player out there that I’m just a little bit lower than consensus on. I definitely see the “people-moving” ability on tape, but his own movement looks kind of “clunky” to me. To be frank, I’m not sure if he will be able to adapt to the NFL speed when it comes to how fast the game goes because he’s such a clunky mover. But in his defense, if there’s any place that can hide those deficiencies, it’s Baltimore. Their power-run heavy scheme can be great for Latham, who can kick in to RG if the RT experiment doesn’t work.

Round 1, Pick 31 - San Francisco 49ers Tyler Guyton - OT (Oklahoma) Guyton and the 49ers is a match made in heaven. Guyton is the classic “raw but talented” prospect, and the 49ers are a historically successful franchise at drafting and developing talent. Best case scenario - Guyton is awesome immediately and slides into the starting RT spot ahead of McKivitz this year. Worst case scenario - Guyton plays at one of the guard spots or red shirts his rookie year then enters the lineup after he’s gotten some more refinement. No matter how you spin it, this is a W for the Niners.

Round 1, Pick 32 - Kansas City Chiefs Ladd McConkey - WR (Georgia) Mocking a receiver to the Chiefs at 32 - original, I know. But I actually really like McConkey as a prospect. He’s really good at doing the thing that matters most for wide receivers - getting open. His floor is so high that I struggle to see him not having a role in the league for a long time. And the chiefs of all places too, he should be relevant in that offense immediately.

BONUS PICK - Round 2, Pick 33 - Carolina Panthers Chop Robinson - EDGE (Penn State) Because the Panthers decided to play some 4D chess and trade away their first round pick this year, I’ll throw them a bone and give them a mock for their actual first pick, since it immediately follows the end of the first round. Chop Robinson is a total gamble - he flashes elite pass-rushing tools and burst that I don’t think I’ve seen from another EDGE in this class. But the jury is still out on how effective he’ll be as a run defender, and whether or not he’ll actually hit that pass-rushing potential. I’m usually not a fan of the EDGE gamble on a guy with high upside and low production, but with Chop I guess I’ll give it a go.

How far the mighty have fallen. Once the second most popular royal, Harry is now booed and shunned and too afraid to be in his own country.

Seattle Sport News Reddit - Wed, 04/24/2024 - 21:18

It’s crazy that not more than ten years ago, Harry was the second most popular royal next to Queen Elizabeth. He was called compassionate, fun, genuine, and humble. He mixed with the simple folk. He made his grandparents proud. He was a credit to his family, and an asset to the nation.

He was likened to Diana in every way.

Now, he’s too afraid to go to the UK because he feels threatened. He didn’t even want to go on the train because of the interaction with the public.

He insulted his grandparents by trashing his family on the Oprah interview.

He quit his royal duties. We’re told that he felt trapped.

Was he ever really Fun, Humble Harry? Was there always a surly, disgruntled Harry hiding beneath the carefree exterior, only waiting for an “enlightened” spouse to wake it up?

We all have good and bad, no one is 100% one or the other. It’s up to us to shine a light through the good side, and improve the bad.

Right now, there’s very little good to see in Harry.

How I evaluate the season as a football guy

Seattle Sport News Reddit - Wed, 04/24/2024 - 11:10

My first love I think will always be football. But I also love all things Seattle sports and baseball is a very close second for me.

I (like most people I think) am crazy excited about having 1st place and honestly I think we’re good and we should just end the season early and go to the playoffs. That being said one of the things I’ve done to try and evaluate a season’s progress is to break it up into an NFL season.

Basically 162/17=9.5 mlb games per football game.

Last year would boil down into something like a 9-8 or 10-7 record in NFL terms and for some reason that’s easier for me. Makes us exactly what we were which was a decent team that narrowly missed the playoffs (basically what the Seahawks did).

So for our purposes right now we are about halfway through the third game of the season with a 1-1 record and a chance to widen the gap in our division.

All of that being said, I will still be talking mad, horrendous shit, until something changes. Just thought it might help keep some perspective. Also I was wondering if anyone else did something like this or if I’m the lone weirdo?

Days Until The Draft | Player Profile Series: Warren Moon

Seattle Sport News Reddit - Wed, 04/24/2024 - 07:21

The draft is TOMORROW folks I can’t believe we finally made it. Doing this series has been fun, I think my favorite part has been all of your comments about random memories of this player at the game you went to, seeing Tommy Kramer at a bar, getting an autograph, etc.

I’d say my top 3 favorite players to learn about so far have been (in no particular order).

  • Chris Kluwe
  • Rick Fenney
  • Greg Coleman

Funny that two of them are punters. I’ve kind of learned that kickers and punters are like goalies and are almost always weird / interesting dudes.

Enjoy the draft everyone, hopefully we can all rally around whatever QB we take, and at least give him a shot if you’re not happy with the pick.

About Warren Moon from Wikipedia:

Early years

Born in Los Angeles, California, Moon was the middle child amongst six sisters. His father, Harold, was a laborer and died of liver disease when Moon was seven years old. His mother, Pat, was a nurse, and Warren learned to cook, sew, iron and housekeep to help take care of the family. He decided early on that he could play only one sport in high school because he had to work the rest of the year to help the family. Moon chose to play football as a quarterback since he found that he could throw a football longer, harder, and straighter than anyone he knew.

Moon enrolled at Alexander Hamilton High School, using the address of one of his mother's friends to gain the advantages of a better academic and athletic reputation than his neighborhood high school could offer. Moon had little playing time until his junior year, when he took over as varsity starting quarterback. In Moon's senior season in 1973, the football team reached the city playoffs and Moon was named to the all-city team.

College

Moon attended two-year West Los Angeles College and was a record-setting quarterback as a freshman in 1974, but only a handful of four-year colleges showed interest in signing him. However, Offensive coordinator Dick Scesniak of the University of Washington in Seattle, was eager to sign the rifle-armed Moon. Adamant to play quarterback, Moon considered himself to be perhaps a slightly above-average athlete who lacked either the size, speed, or strength to play other positions.

Under new head coach Don James, Washington was 11–11 in Moon's first two seasons as a starter, but as a senior in 1977, he led the Huskies to the Pac-8 title and a 27–20 upset win in the Rose Bowl over Michigan. Moon was named the game's Most Valuable Player on the strength of two short touchdown runs and a third-quarter 28-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver Robert "Spider" Gaines.

Despite his collegiate success, Moon was led to believe he would only be a late-round NFL pick and was fearful that would lead to a limited opportunity to make it in the NFL.

Canadian Football League

Six weeks before the NFL draft, Moon signed with the Edmonton Eskimos. He and Tom Wilkinson shared signal-calling duties from 1978 to 1981, winning four consecutive Grey Cups during this span.

Moon became Edmonton's No. 1 quarterback midway through the 1980 season. That year, the team won their third consecutive Grey Cup, and Moon won his first Grey Cup Offensive MVP award as Edmonton defeated Hamilton 48–10.

In 1981, Moon started his first year as Edmonton's No. 1 quarterback with Wilkinson, who would retire after the season, as the team's No. 2 quarterback. Moon was moved to the reserve list for Edmonton's game against Ottawa on October 12. During the Grey Cup, Moon was struggling and Edmonton was trailing Ottawa 20–0 in the second quarter. At this time, Moon was replaced by Wilkinson. Moon returned in the second half and directed drives for three touchdowns and the game winning field goal with three seconds remaining in the game. Edmonton defeated Ottawa 26–23 to win a CFL record fourth consecutive Grey Cup.

In 1982, Moon became the first professional quarterback to pass for 5,000 yards in a season by reaching exactly 5,000 yards. Edmonton would recover from a 3–5 start to finish the regular season 11–5, and first place in the West Division for the sixth consecutive season. The team qualified for the Grey Cup for the sixth consecutive season, and won the Grey Cup for the fifth consecutive year. Moon was named the Grey Cup Offensive MVP for the second time in his career.

In his final CFL season, 1983, Moon threw for a league-record 5,648 yards and won the CFL's Most Outstanding Player Award. However, the season was not as successful for the Eskimos as they finished with an 8–8 record. Having barely made the playoffs (which they would have missed altogether if not for a loss by the Calgary Stampeders to the last place Saskatchewan Roughriders in the last week of the regular season), Moon's Eskimos were throttled in Winnipeg by the Blue Bombers in the West semi-final.

In his six years in the CFL, Moon amassed 1,369 completions on 2,382 attempts (57.4 completion percentage) for 21,228 yards and 144 touchdown passes. He also led his team to victory in nine of 10 postseason games. Moon was inducted into the Canadian Football Hall of Fame in 2001 and the Eskimos' Wall of Honour. In 2006, he was ranked fifth on a list of the greatest 50 CFL players presented by Canadian sports network TSN.

#NFL / Vikings

Moon spent 10 seasons with the Oilers, whom he led to seven playoff appearances, and made an eighth postseason run with the Vikings before retiring in 2000.

Moon was traded to the Minnesota Vikings after the 1993 season, where he passed for over 4,200 yards in each of his first two seasons, but missed half of the 1996 season with a broken collarbone. The Vikings' starting quarterback job was given to Brad Johnson and Moon was released after he refused to take a $3.8-million pay cut to serve as Johnson's backup.

Warren Moon had a passer rating of 82.8 with 10,102 yards, 58 touchdowns and 42 interceptions in 39 games for the Vikings in his career.

Combining his NFL and CFL stats, Moon's numbers are nearly unmatched in professional football annals: 5,357 completions in 9,205 attempts for 70,553 yards and 435 touchdowns. Even if his Canadian Football League statistics are discounted, Moon's NFL career numbers are still exceptional: 3,988 completions for 49,325 yards, 291 touchdown passes, 1,736 yards rushing, and 22 rushing touchdowns.

Moon also held individual NFL lifetime records for most fumbles recovered (56) and most fumbles made (162), but this was surpassed by Brett Favre in 2010.

Moon was in the top five all-time when he retired for passing yards, passing touchdowns, pass attempts, and pass completions.

Accolades:

  • NFL OPOY (1990)
  • NFL Man of The Year (1989)
  • 2nd Team All-Pro (1990)
  • 9x Pro Bowl
  • 2x NFL Passing Yards Leader (1990,1991)
  • Bart Starr Award (1994)
  • 5x Grey Cup Champion
  • 2x Grey Cup MVP
  • Pro Football Hall of Fame
Charity Work

In 1989, he launched the Crescent Moon Foundation, which provides college scholarships for economically disadvantaged students. Moon also supports various charitable organizations including the United Negro College Fund, Ronald McDonald House, Muscular Dystrophy Association, Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, American Heart Association, and Cerebral Palsy Foundation.

Chronic Sinus Issues (26M | 6"0 | 204 lbs | East Asian [Chinese])

Seattle Sport News Reddit - Tue, 04/23/2024 - 16:28
Introduction

This will be a long post and I will attempt to break it down into digestible sections. I am very grateful for you taking the time to read my story and potentially provide whatever help you can. I am based in Seattle and starting my own business so I don't have access to health insurance unfortunately, but when I was working in a corporate environment I had the opportunity to see an ENT specialist and I'll share those findings below.

Sections:
  1. Overall Health & Lifestyle
  2. Daily Symptoms
  3. Medical History
  4. Conclusion
Overall Health & Lifestyle

I consider myself to be a very active individual. I'm engaging in some level of physical activity everyday:

  • Monday, Wednesday, Friday - 90 min strenuous gym session
  • Tuesday, Thursday, sometimes Saturday - 60 min of yoga
  • Weekends - Hiking, Snowboarding, playing sports, long walks, etc.

I am currently on no medications, and my body fat% is between 15-20% I would say. I try to eat as healthy as I can, lots of whole foods and proteins, but I do occasionally indulge in sweets and "unhealthy food" here and there. I would say I'm probably eating fast food maybe once a week, but that is paired with a pretty high intensity activity such as snowboarding or going for a very long hike.

I try to exclude dairy from my regular diet as I'm fairly lactose and tolerant, and out of the 21 or so meals we eat in a week (7 days a week X 3 meals a day) I would say I maybe eat out 2 or 3 of those meals on a weekly basis.

I would say that I'm very emotionally stable, my mood is generally quite high, and I feel good about the place I am in life. Great friends, great partner, awesome living situation all around and I feel very blessed and grateful to be where I am in life.

Daily Symptoms

For as long as I can remember, I've had issues with breathing through my nose. Ever since my highschool cross country coach told me how you're supposed to breathe while running - in through the nose, out through the mouth, and me feeling like drowning whenever I tried and employ that technique, I knew something was off.

I snore quite explosively (many friends have shared this with me) and there have been certain instances where my friends/partner check to see if I'm still breathing because it sounds like I'm choking in my sleep or something. I'm 99% certain I have some level of sleep apnea because I never feel like I feel totally rested whenever I wake up. Of course I feel rested when I get like 10 hours of sleep in, but I feel like there's another level of "restfulness" that I have not had the opportunity to experience yet in life due to my sinuses.

Every morning, I'm coughing up phlegm to a certain degree and trying to clear out my pharynx/throat and everything feels quite clogged and backed up in the morning after waking up.

I have also been experiencing tonsil stones quite frequently over the past year and I read that that was a potential symptom of sinus issues.

Overall I feel like breathing through my nose definitely requires more deliberate effort than it should.

Medical History

My first time encountering this issue with doctors was actually with an orthodontist initially. They were doing a scan on my jaw to see if I needed to get some kind of surgery to move my jaw back to better fit my bite or something. And during the scan, the doctors said they saw a large blockage of some sort and they emphasized that they typically wouldn't be able to see something like that on the kind of scan they were doing.

This was back in high school and heaven knows what in the world I was thinking not getting it addressed at the time, but here we are.

Last year I had the opportunity to see an ENT specialist about my sinuses. He prescribed me the following routine for 3 weeks:

Twice a day (AM/PM)

  • Doxycycline
  • Mucinex DM
  • Afrin Spray (3 days on, 3 days off)

This routine didn't really do much for me other than give me diarrhea for a couple of days. The doctor was very confident this would succeed, but it did not work.

Conclusion

What should I try and do from here on out? I've tried the nose tape, it sort of helps a little bit but not much. I haven't tried mouth taping yet, but I'm open to any potential solutions that are available based on my situation.

I've been trying to mitigate this issue by living a healthy lifestyle, but sleep is definitely something I would love to have a healthier relationship with. Thank you very much for reading through this, have a great day!
