MLB All Star Game Was Most Viewed All Star Game Of All Sports This Past Year

All Star Game viewership:
MLB All Star Game (2015): 10.9 million viewers.Pro Bowl (2016): 8.0MNBA (2016): 7.6MNHL (2016): 1.6M

This past year in sports it was shown through viewers that the most watched All Star Game of any sport was the MLB All Star Game. In my opinion, I feel like Major League Baseballs All Star game is the only All Star game that is taken seriously and the players actually have something to play for. The winning division being the National League or American League, has their respective teams in those divisions who make it to the World Series get home field advantage. This is a big deal for most teams, as we most recently saw the Kansas City Royals granted home field advantage over the New York Mets because the American League defeated the National League in the All Star Game. The Royals jumped out to a 2-0 series lead in the World Series and ultimately the home field advantage proved its case as it played a factor for the Royals to jump out and take the first two games.
The rest of the All Star Games such as the Pro Bowl, NBA, and NHL have no significant meaning to them and it is just a time to see the best players in their respective sport go out and laugh and have a good time with really no concern about winning the game. There was a huge drop off in views as the NHL trailed the second to last NBA in viewers by a whopping 6 million viewers, however I can't say that is surprising to me.
Other than the MLB All Star Game the All Star Games are just a time to share laughs and fool around and try to put on a good show for the fans.

Johnny Footballs Agent Drops Him

Johnny Manziel or better known as Johnny Football, sees his NFL career take another step in the wrong direction as this past week Manziel's agent Erik Burkhardt terminated his professional relationship with Manziel. Burkhardt claims that he will still remain close and friends with Johnny but can no longer go forward in helping and backing him up as his agent. Manuel has had an awful NFL career so far and things look like that are taking a turn for the worst as the Cleveland Browns have told reporters and spread rumors that Manziel's time in Cleveland is done and he will most likely not be playing for the Browns next season. Unfortunately for Manziel if the Browns do in fact release him, people around the league are not sure if he will get another chance with another organization. Manziel being known for partying all the time and not taking his team seriously has cost him. This past season he entered a rehab facility to try and turn his life around but that only last so long as Manziel was out partying once again for most of the season and was late or did no show up to team meetings causing the Browns organization to grow restless with Johnny Football. This past weekend Manziel was accused of allegedly beating up his girlfriend and dragging her around by the hair. After this news spread, shortly after Burkhardt decided it was time to part ways with Johnny. In a recent report Manziel's father told reporters that if his son doesn't go and get help now he might not live to see his 24th birthday. Kinda crazy for the guy who was a living legend and college and supposed to be the next big superstar in the NFL, not only might his football career be over but his life could be in serious danger if he continues down this path. Best of luck Johnny. 

Capitals player KILLS REF

https://mtc.cdn.vine.co/r/videos/B0982378781304344676933246976_4b4ffe41fbb.5.1.17670672033567185470.mp4?versionId=nA7sK0bT7r.ZdL0pGAUN.RdPOGseUQn9

When I saw this video first I was in shock, that Capitals player Dennis Wideman absolutely buried this official. People saying this was an accident are absolutely out of their minds, Wideman intentionally took his rage out on this official and drilled him from behind. People are saying that this linesman missed the call so he was just coming for payback. People defending Wideman are crazy, I like to see tough hard hits between the players but there is absolutely no need to basically kill a linesman cause your a little angry about a missed call. Wideman should get thrown out of the league for this stunt he pulled even though he apologized this hit was vicious. Wideman said "I was just trying to get off the ice. And, at the last second, I looked up and saw him." He also said, it was "unintentional." I mean I'm not an expert but this hit is not unintentional and saying I didn't see him is a poor excuse. They gotta throw the rule book at him here and come down hard and at least suspend him for the rest of the season. At least.

Von Miller Got Sick and Missed Practice For Eating Mozzarella Sticks In A Movie Theater

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. – As if the Denver Broncos defense didn’t have enough to worry about this week as they prepared for Ben Roethlisberger and the Pittsburgh Steelers, suddenly it encountered a new foe: mozzarella sticks. Star pass rusher Von Miller indulged in the delicious greasy snack while taking in a Tuesday night showing of Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Midway through the show, his stomach started feeling funny, and wound up dozing off before the climax of the film. By Wednesday morning, it was clear he was too sick to practice, and coaches sent him home. “The Force struck back,” Miller quipped Thursday afternoon. A day later, and the toxins flushed from his body, Miller was back, and a full participant in practice. But memories of the meal remained. “You can’t put regular gas in a Ferrari,” Miller said. “I learned my lesson.”

This has to be one of the most bizarre and craziest stories I've heard in a while. The thing that blows my mind is what person in the right state of mind gets real food at a Movie Theater? and Mozzarella Sticks too? Not too mention this guy is the millionaire star pass rusher for the Denver Broncos. I find this weird if a normal person does this, but a guy like Von Miller blows my mind even more. I get it that you want to go see Star Wars, but next time just get popcorn like every normal person ever who has went to the Movies.

NFL Playoffs

Houston Texans

Pittsburgh Steelers

CBS 8:15 PM

Cincinnati Bengals

January 10 

Seattle Seahawks

NBC 1:05 PM

Minnesota Vikings

Green Bay Packers

FOX 4:40 PM

Washington Redskins

Finally playoff football has returned as the NFL begins the playoffs with its wild card match ups. On Saturday the first game will be the AFC South Division champ Houston Texans going up against the red hot Kansas City Chiefs. Personally the Texans don't even belong on the same field as any of these teams and are a complete joke. Kansas City is red hot right now and should have no problem getting by the Texans and moving into the divisional round. Prediction: KC wins 24-10. In the nightcap two division rivals the Steelers and the Bengals face off in Cincinnati. They split the season series 1-1, and the game at 8:15 on Saturday night it is gonna be for all the marbles. If Bengals starting quarterback Andy Dalton doesn't start Steelers should cruise by. Prediction: PIT wins 35-17. 

On Sunday the NFC will have their doubleheader as the day opens with Minnesota at home in freezing temperatures against Seattle. A lot of people are picking Seattle to go back to the Super Bowl, but I like the Vikings 17-14. Lastly, the last game of the wild card round is Green Bay going into Washington to play the Redskins. Green Bay has been sloppy of late and with Kirk Cousins red hot I like Washington 31-27. 

Lebron James Crushed Jason Day's Wife

Lebron James absolutely crushed PGA champion golfer Jason Day's wife chasing down a loose ball on Thursday night against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Jason's wife, Ellie, was carried out and taken out of Quicken Loans Arena on a stretcher. She was taken to the MetroHealth Medical Center and was treated for her injuries after being ran over by NBA superstar Lebron James. I was never a big fan of Lebron and this really makes me hate him even more. Classic Lebron tried to act like a hero saying if she was pregnant he would have jumped over her. So this makes absolutely no sense and basically saying he would of done it over again. Lebron lated tweeted after the game his apologies but I wasn't buying it, and I'm sure Jason Day and his wife weren't so excited about this incident. Hebron said in his tweet,“Ellie Day I hope you’re doing okay! My apologies! Hope u guys come back to another game soon. Love LJ!” Pretty weak apology from Lebron but can't expect anything more from the guy. Im pretty sure Jason and Ellie day won't be coming back to see any Cavaliers games anytime soon. Lebron saying that he could of avoided the situation after it happen just makes him look like even more of a selfish guy, classic Bron Bron.

Iowa State Beat Writer Breaks Leg While Fans Storm Court

Things can always be worse, but this beat writer from Iowa State who broke his leg while Iowa State fans stormed the court after a win over their in state rivals Iowa after a late game comeback was pretty awful. Gotta feel for the poor guy. Who could ever imagine that a college basketball beat writer can break his leg on the job, pretty positive Randy Peterson (the Iowa State beat writer) didn't sign up for a broken leg when he took the job. Also, an extremely classless and pointless move by Iowa State storming the court after beating an unranked Iowa team 83-82 when they are ranked the number 4 team in the country. Doesn't really make any sense at all for a number 4 team in the country to have its fans storm the court like they accomplished something after beating a team, who they should have beat by 20, by 1. In addition, to just a stupid move to storm the court they broke one of their own beat writers legs in the process which gives Iowa State an even worse look. Feel real bad for the beat writer, but not for Iowa State and their fans. I will be sure to be rooting against Iowa State for the rest of the season, and feel better Randy Peterson.
