Monday Morning Sports Roundup: Reeves Matters, Bulldogs Streaking and Celts’ Missing Quarter
Monday, December 28, 2020
Let’s take a look at some key takeaways from this weekend in sports:
- The reason why the Jets continue to be one of the worst franchises in major league sports is that they are morons. They were in position to win the Trevor Lawrence sweepstakes and been able to draft one of the most talented quarterbacks in recent history, but then they decided to win games. The Jets are now 2-13. They now trail Jacksonville by a full game -- the Jaguars are 1-14.
- The Celtics look they are missing a piece to get to the next level and it's not the undersized Kemba Walker.

"We support their decision, as we have supported the choices made by all student-athletes at Duke during this unprecedented time. Duke will maintain our current schedule of competition in other sports and will continue to observe our rigorous health and safety protocols, which include daily testing for all student-athletes and are based on guidance from leading medical experts."
