‘Let Russ Be’
Lebron James has been playing for the Los Angeles Lakers since him and Anthony Davis started to join forces. Along the way, Russell Westbrook emerged in Los Angeles as well.
In a new book by Yaron Weitzman, Russell Westbrook ’ shouldered’ lots of the blame. After a disappointing ending to the 2021-22 season, James held at bay for the on-court actions by Westbrook.
James would interestingly say ‘Let Russ Be’ and apparently Westbrook never sought that quote as authentic. Things would eventually mount in that relationship between James and Westbrook and along the way become overshadowed by the arrival of James’ son Bronny.

Will Campbell Has Replaced the Old New England Way
Kayshon Boutte and Will Campbell provided an excellent victory for the New England Patriots in their Louisiana homecoming on Sunday. They both played for LSU and have been tearing it up in the NFL since.
Not necessarily to the degree, New England fans will ever view again in the light of Tom Brady and coach Bill Belichick but a renaissance of what is to come out of the new phase with Campbell, Mike Vrabel, and Drake Maye.
Coach Vrabel quoted on Campell’s success by saying, “For a young player, I think that there’s a really unique consistency, professionalism about the time that he shows up, the time that he goes and meets with the offensive line coaches, the time that he gets his treatment or lifts, the way that he studies and practices, and they just kind of keep building positive days on top of each other and then preparing for his matchups and his job on Sunday.”
Campbell has been a real treat for Drake Maye’s pass-protection blindside. He could still see some work from his run-block attribute.
Things are constantly moving forward with the wheels of Boutte. He started the season with a 93-yard catch, 2 TD. He was drafted in 2023, two years ahead of Campbell, and had displayed solid work to lead tied 16th in WR touchdowns into the regular season.
Mostly it has been the work of two big guys steering the ship.
Campbell and Vrabel…
Without Vrabel, the Tennessee Titans do not reach the AFC title game in 2018 and bounce back two years later with big, defeating running back, Derrick Henry to lead the charge, and help solidify a new team.
The Titans are 1-5 without Vrabel. All Vrabel needs to do is keep paying attention to Campbell and every game will speak for itself with Maye.

Baker Mayfield is Likable
Both teams were depleted and eventually the Tampa Bay Buccaneers won Sunday evening over the San Francisco 49ers. This marked a solidifying victory as Tampa went up 5-1 and the exact other, 4-2.
After the game, Baker Mayfield was automatically on the cell phone, maybe texting good friends or family, about the game and other rhetoric.
The Bucs won without star wide receiver Emeka Egbuka and Mayfield was just so likable and respected after the game for all of his hard work.
Not necessarily, the baker, he is normally called. Mayfield loves to entertain the masses and provide his attitude on the field.
That is why, he is called Baker Mayfield. Mayfield finished 17-23 with a 73% completion percentage. He really took it easy on a team that lost Fred Warner (ankle) and less takeaways.
Buccaneers walk away with a commanding lead in the current NFC North.
