The Front Paige Sports

I'm tired of seeing/hearing student-athletes or should I say athlete-students being lead astray. It's time we start holding these athletic departments semi accountable for not properly preparing athletes for their next steps. It happens more often than we know, but something needs to shake. Hear all about my rant on today's episode! I also speak on Travis Kelce's financial lessons, and NFL week 2! 

On today's episode, I share my perspective on what it is exactly means for the University of Houston to now be a member of the big 12 conference. As exciting as this news is, I know that there are many challenges that will present themselves within the near future with this big move! We also explore the idea that HBCU athletics may have a problem with recruiting for numerous reasons. I asked former athletes if they were recruited by HBCUs and why they did/did not choose to attend HBCUs in which presented some interesting results. 

Welcome to the time of the year I re-activate my cable subscription so I can flip channels to witness my favorite teams live, no jet lag. THIS IS NOT A DRILL, COLLEGE FOOTBALL IS BACK! Did Week 1 live up to the hype or nah? Find out all about it in today's episode. & I promise this is the last episode I will talk about Netflix's Untold series. It's just THAT good.

Today's episode is short & sweet! I give you the 411 on what's going on with my career, discuss the Untold 5-part series on Netflix, and J.R. Smith's collegiate journey. 

On today's episode, we discuss the amazing performances from this year's Prefontaine Classic of Eugene, Oregon. With the return of Sha'Carri Richardson to the track and field stage after her suspension, the (not-so-much) feud continued between USA vs Jamaica (and social media). Her last place finish has been the talk of the weekend along with the post-race interview from her and other competitors. While track and field athletes try to all get along, tensions rose last week in NFL joint practices. As fights broke out between the Bucs-Titans and Raiders-Rams, the NFL is looking into potential punishments, if any,  for players involved. Is it just a part of the game or is it just a part of the game? Glad to see football is FINALLY back for weekends to come. 

Also mentioned in this episode, Little League sensation Mo'ne Davis current whereabouts and the arrest of the Miami Hurricanes's late Brian Pata.

*SPOILER ALERT* If you have not watched Malice at the Palace on Netflix, I suggest you do so. On today's episode we discuss what we thought we knew versus what really happened that night at the place when the Detroit Pistons took on the Indiana Pacers. Such an insightful documentary series by Netflix. Also, we discuss the Paralympics and Draymond Green's new series "Chips".

On today's episode, I share my experience with LIMITATIONS as a former athlete. In today's society, being "more than an athlete" is at an all time high but still has ways to go. My hope is by sharing my experience that it will encourage the next person to not live in a box to satisfy others, but to extend those limits and live outside of the box.  

As the Tokyo Olympics close out, I spend time reflecting on the performances of Team USA. From volleyball, gymnastics, basketball, and track & field, it's been a successful one! I hope you all enjoyed the Olympic coverage you did receive and look forward to Paris 2024.

The WNBA is growing growing okay. Viewership has skyrocketed this season and there are even talks of potential expansion to another major city like Houston. Now that would be lit & the H could use a winning team just saying.  

Also in today's episode, we discussed the importance of mental health being a continuing conversation and not just talk, but more action. It is okay to not be okay!
