Kareem Calls the Shots on Sports This Week 1.4.22
Kareem’s Video Sports Commentary for January 4, 2022
Hello Substack Sports Fans. This week I want to talk about plans to shorten the NBA season from 82 to 78 games, a special holiday gift that Jets quarterback Zach Wilson gave to a fan, and the North Carolina Courage women’s soccer team’s apology for signing a player who refused to wear a Pride month jersey.
Nice to see a professional athlete get noticed for something so positive. It's always the bad boys who get the headlines, but I guess 'twas ever thus. "The evil that men do lives after them; the good is oft interred with their bones".
Thank you Kareem. A shortened NBA season? Oh no. It's hard enough during the summer without all the games. Boo hoo. I jest. It would be better for the players. Their season is so long & shortening it would probably help prevent injuries. There are so many ankle & knee injuries. Constant running, over-extension, twisting, etc., like Jimmy Butler's injury last night . Zach Wilson's gift was kind & remarkable in showing appreciation for a working mother & her son.
Thank you for your words & views. A very Happy & prosperous New Year to you. Best of health & well-being.
