The TEN: 6/28/2017

The TEN

(“The TEN” is not a top ten but ten items worth being included in “The TEN”)

1. Oklahoma City Thunder guard Russell Westbrook is named NBA MVP. Mike D’Antoni of the Houston Rockets receives Coach of the Year.

2. Former Anaheim Ducks stars Paul Kariya and Teemu Selanne are both elected to the Hockey Hall of Fame. They will be inducted November 13 in Toronto.

3. Defensive tackle Nick Fairley has been placed on the reserve list because of a non-football illness designation by the New Orleans Saints. Fairley, who has had symptoms related to an enlarged heart, won’t be playing in 2017 and perhaps beyond.

4. Former New York Mets pitcher Anthony Young, 51, has passed away. He had recently been diagnosed with a brain tumor. Young lost 27 consecutive games from 1992-’93 which is still an MLB record.

5. “I hate to name drop but (Ryan) Fitzpatrick is still playing? He leads the league in interceptions and he’s still F—— getting paid?  Dude is garbage.” – Former NFL quarterback Vince Young.

6. The Boston Celtics reportedly have their eye on Gordon Hayward and Paul George this off season.

7. “If Rowland played in the Montview or Miramonte League would they still be bad Coaches? – MVS Commenter “Way2Much.”

    BTW, Arroyo does have at least two new transfers. Both SEM and Arroyo Knights offensively looked sharp. Rumors are true about South throwing the ball much better this year…significantly better. Both Defenses looked pretty weak Arroyo isn’t as athletic at LB but hard to replace Carrillo and Villa so it’s expected. SEM looks athletic defensively but they look under coached if you ask me. I can’t wait!!! Will be an epic game

    Arroyo and South El Monte played to a 21-21 tie yesterday in 7 on 7 action. Nice competitive game a precursor to what should be one hell of a game when pads come on.

    @ Vince young I hope he reads this, lol, Hey Vince; Fitzpatrick works hard and your not getting paid because you were the dumbest to ever come out of college when tested by the NFL, 2nd your lazy and just like (Russell) with the Raiders showing up to camp 100 Lbs heavier is not a dedicated player , and you couldn’t pick up the offensive playbook even as they dumbied it down just for you. Also all your money
