“One Man’s Opinion” by Gordon Curvey
Yes I am a sports junky. My favorite sports in order are the NBA, NFL, boxing, college football and basketball and MLB. MLB has a lot of work to do. It is just to slow of a game to watch and something needs to be done about this. A 20 second pitching clock is needed badly.
As a sports fan and a member of the Seattle sports media, I covered the first home game of the Seattle Dragons or the XFL. A new football (American football) league. It was the Dragon’s second game. It was held at the home of our Seattle Seahawks, Century Link Field. There was about 30,000 football fans in attendance. I think one of if not be the biggest home crowd so far in the XFL short history. The crowd was a typical Century Link football crowd. At times booing, and in the second half, many times cheering.
I was in the press room with other Seattle and Tampa Bay sports media. I was their with a member of the “Sports Inner City” team, Theo Hall aka “Mr. Network. By the way, Theo owns a semi-pro football team called the Wenatchee Valley Skyhawks. I will be doing a story on them soon.
The Dragons beat the Tampa Bay Vipers 17-9. Let’s keep it real sports fans. In watching the game, you quickly found out this. The players in the XFL in reality were not good enough to make a NFL team. Stars in college but not good enough to make a NFL roster. One thing that has stood out is some of the new rules of the XFL. For instance microphones putting out sound on the TV broadcasts of the head coaches calling plays on the sidelines.
Myself I am not feeling this. Soon you will read reports that someone watching at home or elsewhere will get the plays and relay the plays somehow to a team. This could happen in today’s tech world ladies and gentlemen. It really could.
One thing I like is the kickoffs in the XFL where players on offense and defense cannot move until the kicker kicks the ball. I think the NFL will pick this rule up soon. And their are other rules I like and dislike in the new XFL. Anyway back to the game between the Dragons and Vipers. Let’s keep it real, the QB play in the XFL has not been very good. Including with the Seattle Dragons QB Brandon Silvers. He threw some terrible passes in my opinion and others in the media opinion. The Vipers OB also threw some just terrible passes. Real talk.
The Dragons head coach, former Seahawks QB Jim Zorn cannot be happy with the QB play so far in the season where at the time I am typing this the team is 1-1. The first half of the game was all D and no O. There was plenty of sacks and passes were thrown that made me say “Who was this QB throwing to?”
Tampa Bay was without there starting QB, Aaron Murray. They played Taylor Cornelius and Quinton Flowers at QB. The Dragons Silvers finished the game a poor 7-19 for 91 yards. The game picked up in the second half as far as excitement. The crowd at Century Link started to sound like a typical Seahawks crowd. Very loud. Waving there Seattle Dragons towels that was given to everyone when they came to the game.
Myself and others wondered why didn’t Zorn put in backup B.J. Daniels. But Zorn decided not to for some reason. But to again keep it real, Silvers did hit Keenan Reynolds for a 68 yard TD and the crowd went crazy at Century Link!
So as I said, the second half had more excitement. But still one thing that has stood out so far in the entire league is the poor play at QB. But then again sports fans, we have to realize that these players as I said earlier in the story, were stars in college but are not good enough at this time to make a NFL roster. Now some may open a few GMs eyes in the NFL and they may want to sign a few XFL players to join their NFL roster.
BUT the XFL has said the NFL CANNOT touch a player in the XFL during the season. So that ends that right? But readers yes I am a media member but I am a sports junky and it was just big time fun to be at Century Link to cover the first home game of the Dragons. And also remember this. The tickets for XFL games are VERY VERY LOW!! At prices fans can finally attend a ticket for a football game at Century Link. THAT IS A GOOD THING!!
Myself and Theo Hall will be at all home games of the Dragons and of course will discuss the games. Next time via our “Sports Inner City Radio” podcasts or “Sports Inner City TV” webcasts on our website “Music Inner City News Magazine” www.musicinnercity.com SPECIAL THANKS TO THEO HALL AND THE SEATTLE DRAGONS FOR THEIR SUPPORT!!
