New York Yankees star Aaron Judge hit his way into baseball history last Tuesday night, crushing home run No. 62 nearly 400 feet in a road game against the Texas Rangers.
No one cares that the Yankees lost the game 3-2. It’s irrelevant for a team that already had its place in the playoffs locked up.

One of the coolest things about social media is seeing the highlight videos that athletes post.
It really gives you an inside look into how hard they truly work at their craft.

October means scary movies, slightly cooler temperatures and Halloween candy.
It’s also the month the fate of the teams in District 1-4S is determined.
I say that because if a team has any hope of playing deep into the month of November, and, with a little luck, December, it has to take care of business in October.

Ella Nelson of Jay shared a picture on social media of the volleyball roundup that appeared in a recent issue of the Press Gazette. She was in one of the photos that ran with the roundup.
Pace kicker Reice Griffith once shared a picture of the feature story on him from earlier this summer and thanked me for taking the time to write about him.

We were left with a season-opening college football matchup two weeks ago on a Saturday night at Pen Air Field in Pensacola that wasn’t exactly one you’d call even or fair.
No disrespect to Warner, but the NAIA program from South Florida isn’t on the same level as the University of West Florida, an NCAA Division II national power.

It is true what they say that you can go home again.
We’ve seen that locally with recent coaching hires at the high school level.

It was a hot early-summer Sunday afternoon at Tate. Pace kicker Reice Griffith was getting ready to put in work with One on One Kicking, but before he did, he and I talked football for a bit.
I asked him about the life of a kicker, including the pressure that comes with it, and Griffith didn’t even blink when discussing it during our interview.

We throw around words like hero, courage and bravery so easily at times, often without thinking about just how big of a deal those words really are.
Sometimes they are appropriate. But often, they don’t quite fit the situation we are describing. The words fit when we are talking about Gavin Peaden.

Meighan and I took our crazy, energetic, special in more ways than one chocolate lab to the Pensacola Blue Wahoos’ Bark in the Park night last week.
This wasn’t Greyson’s first rodeo at the special event the Double-A affiliate of the Miami Marlins hold once a year, giving canine companions, both large and small, a chance to hang out and watch a baseball game.

Deshaun Watson set sports social media on fire last week after it was announced his suspension this coming NFL season will last only six games.
The ruling was made by Sue Robinson, the league’s disciplinary officer, and it seems like a crazy light sentence to serve based on the accusations against one of the biggest stars in the league.
