Kyle Tucker’s historic contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers has exposed how modern investment-driven teams exploit luxury tax loopholes, deferrals, and opt-outs to maximize financial flexibility. While the deal itself is legal, it signals a deeper trend: baseball is increasingly a financial instrument rather than a purely competitive sport. Guggenheim Baseball Management treats the Dodgers like an investment portfolio, prioritizing valuation growth over the health of the game. This accelerationist approach — pushing the system to its limits — may encourage other consortiums, investment firms, and deep-pocketed capital groups to enter MLB ownership. Fans, players, and smaller-market teams now face the consequences of a sport where financial logic can override tradition. Kyle Tucker’s contract isn’t just a blockbuster signing; it’s the canary in the coal mine for the future of Major League Baseball. - [There Must Be a Bigger Purpose, But I Can't See It](https://moonstampsports.com/there-must-be-a-bigger-purpose-but-i-cant-see-it/) - Note: This was written over a series of days, so some references to "last night" or "yesterday" refer to days that were not yesterday. This is not a perfect blog; it is an outpouring of emotion. Last night, in a moment of pure exhaustion, I got home and immediately crashed into my bed. The lights - [Sometimes Everything Ends the Right Way: Rory McIlroy’s Masters](https://moonstampsports.com/sometimes-everything-ends-the-right-way-rory-mcilroys-masters/) - I’ve tried to write this blog a couple of times. The first time was in 2024, when I hoped Washington would win the CFB Playoff and send the Pac-12 off in style. There was a world where I wrote this last week after Houston won the National Championship. But life doesn’t work that way. Storybook - [I Am Feeling Better About the Kyle Tucker Trade](https://moonstampsports.com/i-am-feeling-better-about-the-kyle-tucker-trade/) - Last week, my mood could be summed up pretty simply as melancholic acceptance. For weeks on the podcast, I have been very weary of the Kyle Tucker and Alex Bregman sagas. Streets have been saying for the last year or so that Kyle Tucker is leaving of his own volition. Alex Bregman has been holding - [The 2025 College Football National Champion: Ohio State?](https://moonstampsports.com/the-2025-college-football-national-champion-ohio-state/) - The title gives the entirety of this blog’s premise away. I think Ohio State is going to win the National Championship. This means I have to get something out of the way: I genuinely don’t want this to happen. If I had my way, Ohio State would end up getting completely embarrassed by Tennessee, leading - [The Moon Stamp Cast #24 - The CFB Playoff is Here](https://moonstampsports.com/the-moon-stamp-cast-24-the-cfb-playoff-is-here/) - The last week's pod before the week of football reckoning is here. Brian fully believes that Notre Dame will hurt him (he's seen the story before). Jorden is a contrarian and also thinks he found some secret code in the data. As always, please like, comment, share, sub/follow, and rate. See you next week for - [The Moon Stamp Cast #23 - Soto Sets Record, College Football Playoff Predictions, and Josh Allen](https://moonstampsports.com/the-moon-stamp-cast-23-soto-sets-record-college-football-playoff-predictions-and-josh-allen/) - So I have been terrible about uploading these to the site. I assume that no one is finding the podcast through the website, but why have a site if I'm not going to utilize it? This week was supposed to be short, but it turned into a long one. That was mostly because we went - [Medrick Burnett Jr.'s Media Silence](https://moonstampsports.com/medrick-burnett-jr-s-media-silence/) - From the pod to this blog, it's no secret that I think sports journalism is dead. The environment has been that way for a while, stemming from a few factors. The modern news and social media metagame, coupled with the rise of short-form video, has created an environment where ESPN, Fox, and others need clicks. - [Josh Allen and Tua, Concussions, and Hard Goals](https://moonstampsports.com/josh-allen-and-tua-concussions-and-hard-goals/) - Welcome back to the Moon Stamp Sports blog - a platform similar to the $5 on Coinbase; we all kind of forgot about it. But it seems I have forgotten it the most. I’ve wanted to write something about some dumb sports take I thought up while on my way to work. As the pod - [I Have a Dream of 32 Manning Starting Quarterbacks](https://moonstampsports.com/i-have-a-dream-of-32-manning-starting-quarterbacks/) - Indulge me for a second in a dream that began to build last Saturday. As I watched Arch Manning be the Tom Brady to Quinn Ewers’ Drew Bledsoe, the reality dawned on me - the Manning dominance will continue. If we’re using American robber baron dynasties as any indication, this is supposed to be the - [The O'Malley-Dvalishvili Fight at UFC 306 Was Incredibly Funny](https://moonstampsports.com/the-omalley-dvalishvili-fight-at-ufc-306-was-incredibly-funny/) - At best, I'm a fairweather fighting fan. I'll tune into something like the Craig Jones Invitational all the way through because it's historic and I think Craig Jones is who I'd be as a grappler. But, when it comes to the UFC unless Jon Jones is embroiled in a controversy (likely place for him to - [I Created Six New Fantasy Football Punishments](https://moonstampsports.com/i-created-six-new-fantasy-football-punishments/) - Off the bat I have a confession on this blog. You may see that I am publishing a fantasy football punishment blog after the season has begun and punishments have been decided. Well, that’s on me completely forgetting about the ideas I’d come up with. On a routine trip through my Notes app, past the - [The UH Football Loss to OU Was Spiritually a Win](https://moonstampsports.com/the-uh-football-loss-to-ou-was-spiritually-a-win/) - Coming off of Week 1 of college football, I had resigned myself to a Cougar football season full of pain. I have been referring to UH as a basketball school for the past couple of years. But this year feels like a reckoning for the stench of failure that came from the Holgorsen era. Even - [The Aaron Judge Home Run Conundrum: What Does it Mean to Exist](https://moonstampsports.com/the-aaron-judge-homerun-conundrum/) - Just a quick heads up before you begin reading this - this blog will be a bit of an oddball. It's been about two weeks since I released a blog. In trying to focus on the podcast and cutting and posting clips I've neglected the one thing I'm good at, blogging. And there has been - [Tyreek Hill and Noah Lyles Need to Race for the Good of America](https://moonstampsports.com/tyreek-hill-and-noah-lyles-need-to-race-for-the-good-of-america/) - Years ago, when I watched the first season of The Boys, I realized that we don’t race as adults. More specifically, there are no organized races between athletes outside of sporting events. As Jake Paul, along in some ways with Creator Clash, has brought celebrity boxing to the mainstream, we should do the same with - [The Moon Stamp Cast #6 - Tucker or Bregman, Rooting for Steph at the Olympics, and the AFC/NFC West Preview](https://moonstampsports.com/the-moon-stamp-cast-6-tucker-or-bregman-rooting-for-steph-at-the-olympics-and-the-afc-nfc-west-preview/) - This week on The Moon Stamp Cast we continue to apologize to Kikuchi and Bagwell for our misgivings, we praise Team USA and talk about how nice it was to finally root for Steph Curry, break down dynasties (Chiefs), and deliver our NFC and AFC South previews (Chiefs, again). Stay tuned for the Yu-Gi-Oh moment - [I’d Love to See Jake Paul Box at the 2028 LA Olympics](https://moonstampsports.com/id-love-to-see-jake-paul-box-at-the-2028-la-olympics/) - I’m constantly fascinated by the Jake Paul experience. There was a point in my life I knew a dangerous amount of the lyrics to “It’s Everyday Bro.” My way less terminally online friends always look at me like I’m destructively stupid when I refer to England as “my city.” Jake Paul is the perfect example - [The White Sox Are Cowards for Firing Pedro Grifol](https://moonstampsports.com/the-white-sox-are-cowards-for-firing-pedro-grifol/) - There are a few things that annoy me more than a team running away from history. If a team is going to do poorly, do it historically. The Astros spent years in middling mediocrity, and they said that with their chest. Now, the Astros are multiple-time Silver Boot winners (a real award, unlike The Commissioner’s - [Leon Marchand's Gold Medals Should Count as Half for America](https://moonstampsports.com/leon-marchands-gold-medals-should-count-as-half-for-america/) - As I write this blog, America is still second in the medal count. I feel like this has been a disappointing Olympics from an American standpoint. Mostly because our swimming team has been a little lost; I do think we should go to war for Alex Walsh. The rules of the IM escape me (read - [Should Our Best Athletes Be Forced to Hang Out With Babies?](https://moonstampsports.com/should-our-best-athletes-be-forced-to-hang-out-with-babies/) - I have been somewhat disappointed in this Olympics. Not because athletes had to microdose e.coli, nor because it turns out America is not only bad at shooting (we did win a gold) but the entire sport is filled with gearheads. No, I’m disappointed because America is not as dominant in swimming as it has been - [The Moon Stamp Cast #4 - The Astros Bring in Kikuchi, the Olympics, and an NFC/AFC East Preview](https://moonstampsports.com/the-moon-stamp-cast-4-the-astros-bring-in-kikuchi-the-olympics-and-an-nfc-afc-east-preview/) - Welcome to week 4 of The Moon Stamp Cast. This week we break down the Yusei Kikuchi trade and the Astros regime's decision-making, Jorden gives an Olympics update featuring Colin Jost and the TikTok Muffin Man, and the guys break down their picks for the AFC and NFC East. We also have two Yu-Gi-Oh moments - [Does the Yusei Kikuchi Trade Make Any Sense for the Astros?](https://moonstampsports.com/does-the-yusei-kikuchi-trade-make-any-sense-for-the-astros/) - I'm still in a lot of shock right now. Before I began writing this, I knew the Astros were trading for Yusei Kikuchi and that Bloss was in the mix. To me, that was far too much, given how Kikuchi is pitching. We actually spoke about this on the podcast this past week. For the - [Who Would Win a Democratic Presidential Candidate In-Season Tournament](https://moonstampsports.com/who-would-win-a-democratic-presidential-candidate-in-season-tournament/) - Welcome to the new world, where Joe Biden is no longer the Democratic nominee. I actually began this blog on Saturday, when everything was still in "what if" territory. This was before every weekday news anchor was unceremoniously called in from their brat afternoon plans. Now, we are here. Though Kamala Harris is now the - [The Copa America Failures are on CONMEBOL](https://moonstampsports.com/the-copa-america-failures-are-on-conmebol/) - There has been this line going around trying to blame America for all the issues of the Copa America. It's a mix of Europeans (whom I hate) trying to score points because it's soccer and those who just want a reason to score points against America. I wouldn't consider myself very patriotic, but the moment - [The New Age Pitcher Pulling Has to End](https://moonstampsports.com/the-new-age-pitcher-pulling-has-to-end/) - I'm going to start this blog by bringing in my thoughts on modern soccer. I promise this is going somewhere; there is a pretty strong comparison to how front offices treat a pitcher. Even though I began watching soccer in 2013, I think I caught the tail end of the good times. The whole "last - [Jurgen Klopp Was Never Coming to the USMNT, But It's Nice to Dream](https://moonstampsports.com/jurgen-klopp-was-never-coming-to-the-usmnt-but-its-nice-to-dream/) - Starting Wednesday a dream was born. A dream that had been rumbling for a week, but one I really didn't think was on the table. Like when a beautiful woman actually accepts your proposal for a date after weeks of fantasizing about the no in your head (she isn't real, you're just high on Sudafed). - [Jimmer Fredette is Back on Team USA - A Reaction](https://moonstampsports.com/jimmer-fredette-is-back-on-team-usa-a-reaction/) - Middle school Jorden pops up every once in a while. He stays deep down in some place where I keep the memories that only pop up after midnight when I need to remember the most awkward moments. Every once in a while, a keyholed memory will re-appear. Usually, that's some late-noughties pop song or iFunny - [Please Join Me in Asking for Justice for Brett from The Bachelorette](https://moonstampsports.com/please-join-me-in-asking-for-justice-for-brett-from-the-bachelorette/) - Hands in the air and cards on the table, I have a confession to make. I genuinely love watching The Bachelor and The Bachelorette. Not in the "I hope they find love" way, but in the, "Oh this is what those well-produced ISIS videos were getting at" way. It becomes way more interesting when you - [We Shouldn’t Allow Northerners to Report on Hurricanes](https://moonstampsports.com/we-shouldnt-allow-northerners-to-report-on-hurricanes/) - I write this without power, thanks to generator-powered wifi. After a flubbed attempt to venture out and see the damage, I decided to write this. If you were to ask me to speak with a northerner about hurricanes, I’d tell them to respect the power of the storm and understand the damage they hold. If - [Athletes Should Be Able to Bet on Themselves](https://moonstampsports.com/athletes-should-be-able-to-bet-on-themselves/) - There have been so many times I've tried to write this introduction, but it always sounds like a middle school paper intro. "Sports betting is becoming a big deal," "Sports betting has a big impact on the culture," and "Sports betting is cringe when down but skibidi when up." All of these are great options, - [Team USA Should Take the Best to the Paris Olympics, Not the Winners](https://moonstampsports.com/team-usa-should-take-the-best-to-the-paris-olympics-not-the-winners/) - Every four years the American jingoism begins to seep slowly from my head into my mouth. There are multiple criticisms you can level at the USA, but you can't call us nonathletic dweebs. This country is so great we excel at both ends of the spectrum — extreme athletes and gluttonous fatties. Every once in - [Moon Stamp Video Rundown - Week of June 23](https://moonstampsports.com/moon-stamp-video-rundown-week-of-june-23/) - Welcome to the Moon Stamp Sports video rundown for this past week. I meant to get this out earlier but completely forgot. Instead of releasing 3 blogs tomorrow, I'll just release this one incredibly late. So, here are all the videos from the Moon Stamp Sports accounts. Reed Sheppard Houston June 27 is the day - [Soccer Tournament Groups Should be Decided by Geopolitics](https://moonstampsports.com/soccer-tournament-groups-should-be-decided-by-geopolitics/) - The 2022 World Cup taught me an incredibly important lesson — it's funny to create groups based on geopolitics. A group consisting of the US, England, Wales, and Iran was the wet dream for someone who wants nothing more than chaos. You've heard of college football sickos, now welcome soccer group sickos. We got to - [It's Corny to Hand the Championship Trophy to the Owners First](https://moonstampsports.com/its-corny-to-hand-the-championship-trophy-to-the-owners-first/) - A pivotal part of any team's championship win is the trophy ceremony. After the game, an esteemed commentator comes out and sets the scene for the rest of the world to bask in the glory of the winners. The winners are in a state of both disbelief and relief. Everyone from the coaching staff to - [Moon Stamp Video Rundown - Week of June 16](https://moonstampsports.com/moon-stamp-video-rundown-week-of-june-16/) - I've gotten really into video editing, and I've been posting them on our socials. If you're seeing this, you're probably following one of our pages. But I wanted to start a Sunday tradition of posting videos from the week before. So here's each video from this week (and the week before, but this is the - [The Celtics and American Teams are World Champions](https://moonstampsports.com/the-celtics-and-american-teams-are-world-champions/) - Something must be in the water globally because the rest of the world is being really snippy about sports. I'm used to seeing Europeans have terrible sporting opinions. "'Ey right blud yous call it soccer," a word they actually invented.* But, what I'm more concerned with is the weird narrative formed on Twitter/X this week - [The Celtics Obliterating the Mavericks is the Perfect Ending for Dallas](https://moonstampsports.com/the-celtics-obliterating-the-mavericks-is-the-perfect-ending-for-dallas/) - "Actually two games were close and the Mavs won a game." No, the Finals weren't close. Even in games 2 and 3, I never thought the Mavericks were actually challenging the Celtics. The Mavericks were a two-man team, where one of the men was scared by Bostonians, and the other thought he didn't have to - [The Redemption of Bryson Dechambeau (Video)](https://moonstampsports.com/the-redemption-of-bryson-dechambeau/) - [When It Comes to Gregg Berhalter, What Is the USMNT Doing?](https://moonstampsports.com/when-it-comes-to-gregg-berhalter-what-is-the-usmnt-doing/) - In 2017, after the USMNT had failed to qualify for the 2018 World Cup, Taylor Twellman ranted against the USMNT and its continual failings. "What are we doing," he yelled after watching the team fail to score against an island nation. He ended his rant hoping that the loss to Trinidad and Tobago would be - [USMNT's Draw With Brazil Gave Me Dana Holgorsen Flashbacks](https://moonstampsports.com/usmnts-draw-with-brazil-gave-me-dana-holgorsen-flashbacks/) - This is an incredibly niche post about my hate for two men. I've detailed my hate for Dana Holgorsen and how he worked to destroy UH football. Recently, I have discussed why Gregg Berhalter needs to leave the USMNT, especially before the World Cup. Never did I think the two would collide in my mind. - [I Am Tired of The Caitlin Clark Narrative Cycle](https://moonstampsports.com/i-am-tired-of-the-caitlin-clark-narrative-cycle/) - I did not want to write this blog. This was supposed to be an off day for me while waiting to see what happened with Manchester City. The NBA Finals seems to be going one way, so there's nothing to add to the discussion about how Kyrie stinks. I did not want to weigh into - [What is Dan Hurley Doing Potentially Going to the Lakers?](https://moonstampsports.com/what-is-dan-hurley-doing-potentially-going-to-the-lakers/) - In 2018 as Philippe Coutinho was preparing to leave Liverpool for Barcelona, his manager, Jurgen Klopp, came with a warning. Stay here and they'll build you a statue, he said. Go somewhere else and you will be just another player. Philippe Coutinho left for Barcelona, leaving after being unable to ever establish himself in the - [US Cricket Victory Over Pakistan Crazier than Miracle on Ice, Just Not as Important](https://moonstampsports.com/us-cricket-victory-over-pakistan-crazier-than-miracle-on-ice-just-not-as-important/) - I was unaware that the Cricket World Cup was one, happening, and two, in America, until last week. A Jomboy TikTok popped up. Instead of spreading Astros conspiracy theories, he was doing something (commentary? lip readings?) for whichever provider streams it. As you may notice, I did not refer to it as the T20 World - [The Craig Jones Invitational Comes at the Perfect Time](https://moonstampsports.com/the-craig-jones-invitational-comes-at-the-perfect-time/) - This is going to be an incredibly niche blog post. I have a tepid interest in MMA. I wrestled in high school (Uncle Rico: until I shattered my elbow), and because of that I still have a pretty close connection with "combat sports". And while I don't keep up as well as I should with - [Baseball is Objectively Better Than Cricket](https://moonstampsports.com/baseball-is-objectively-better-than-cricket/) - The current Twitter/X sports discourse is split in two: WNBA takes from people who just started watching a couple games ago (me included) and patriotic Americans fighting off the rest of the world. The entire baseball-cricket debate stems from this tweet. I won’t sit here and pretend I’m some kind of cricket expert. But I’m - [We Should Admit Greenland into CONCACAF to Invade Canada](https://moonstampsports.com/we-should-admit-greenland-into-concacaf-to-invade-canada/) - Back during the Trump presidency, a news story appeared about Greenland. According to insiders, Trump had floated an idea out there about buying Greenland. Every commentator immediately denounced the idea as ridiculous. But at that time I saw the bigger plan. You see, back during the War of 1812 there were thoughts about invading Canada - [The Jose Abreu Situation and Where It Goes](https://moonstampsports.com/the-jose-abreu-situation-and-where-it-goes/) - The most interesting story of the 2024 Astros season is not the pitcher merry-go-round or the Kyle Tucker homerun renaissance. The Jon Singleton redemption has gotten a little play. No one has told the executives that, but there's some play. No, the story of the season has been the Jose Abreu situation. The Jose Abreu - [The Doomsday NBA Finals of Mavericks-Celtics is A Reality Now](https://moonstampsports.com/the-doomsday-nba-finals-of-mavericks-celtics-is-a-reality-now/) - During the 2022 NCAA Tournament, experts realized we were close to a Doomsday. Unlike the Doomsday Clock run by those scientists (they just make it up as they go), this countdown was real. Sadly, we were treated to a Duke versus UNC Final Four during Coach K's last narcissistic tour. It was dirty, it was - [The Unexpected Redemption of Jon Singleton](https://moonstampsports.com/the-unexpected-redemption-of-jon-singleton/) - A couple of years back a YouTuber called Internet Historian released a video entitled The Endgoodening of No Man's Sky. The basic premise of the video was that the video game No Man's Sky had started badly and finished well. But the finishing wasn't just some coincidence - it was a lot of hard work - [What's the End Game for Bronny in the NBA?](https://moonstampsports.com/whats-the-end-game-for-bronny-in-the-nba/) - I know that today is the day the NBA Conference Finals start. It would probably be more conducive for me to write about those games. Or, more specifically, how I am all in on the Timberwolves, Ant, KAT, hell even Rudy Gobert. I also need to write about how I need the Mavericks to do - [Jurgen Klopp, Inspiration, and Six Minutes at the End](https://moonstampsports.com/jurgen-klopp-inspiration-and-six-minutes-at-the-end/) - Usually, whenever I want to release a blog I need to make sure it's great. Maybe even more than great. But this blog feels different. In my mind, it needs to be perfect. Every news organization, blog, or internet landing point will write some retrospective on the man and the coach that Jurgen Klopp was. - [Texans Regular Season Predictions 1.0](https://moonstampsports.com/texans-regular-season-predictions-1-0/) - After spending a week procrastina-….taking my time to think on and not wanting to rush this blog, I think it’s time I talk about my Texans regular season predictions. This is just my initial thoughts on how the season will go as I try my best to limit my expectations. This team is young and - [A Formal Apology to Scottie Scheffler Following His Arrest](https://moonstampsports.com/a-formal-apology-to-scottie-scheffler-following-his-arrest/) - Dear Scottie, Not to start this by quoting Shaq, but to quote Shaq, Scottie Scheffler I was not familiar with your game. I released a whole blog after the Masters basically saying you were boring and needed a foil. I even went further and said that foil needed to be like Chael Sonnen to make - [An American Can't Imitate the Point Center Jokić Playstyle](https://moonstampsports.com/an-american-cant-imitate-the-point-center-jokic-playstyle/) - I've been pretty open on this blog about how I don't do a great job watching the NBA. I've always been more of a college ball kind of guy; it's just in my blood. I've spent time way too much time watching highlights of the NBA combine scrimmages. Even though they are all tainted by - [I Am Starting a Jayson Taytum-Kobe Narrative](https://moonstampsports.com/i-am-starting-a-jayson-taytum-kobe-narrative/) - This is a take I've sat on for a while and haven't been fully sure how to develop it. See, there's one thing I really hate about players, and that's when they do something incredibly corny and we all just forget. Russell Wilson got rightfully shamed for being a cornball of a human, but he - [Why Did Patrick Beverley Ask for the Ball Back?](https://moonstampsports.com/why-did-patrick-beverley-ask-for-the-ball-back/) - At this point every random person with a sports platform has had their say on the Pat Bev situation. The general consensus is hey man bad move. At least with Malice in the Palace Ron Artest decided to put his body on the line. Here, Pat Bev just sat behind the security line of scrimmage - [UH is Not Doing Anything Wrong Using the Houston Oilers' Colors](https://moonstampsports.com/uh-is-not-doing-anything-wrong-using-the-houston-oilers-colors/) - Welcome to another blog where I publicly hate the Tennesse Titans organization. I'm sure Will Levis and Derrick Henry (I know, I'll bring up his new team later) and Taylor Lewan are great guys. But holding a color hostage is one of the corniest and most disturbing things an organization can do. Like, I don't - [Marvin Harrison Jr. Reveals Fanatics is an Annoyingly Horrible Company](https://moonstampsports.com/marvin-harrison-jr-reveals-fanatics-is-an-annoyingly-horrible-company/) - For the longest time, I grouped Fantatics in my head with that company that sold big heads of players. I know the title says it, but Fanatics is just an unserious company. This may all stem from the fact I think Michael Rubin is a dweeb. Michael Rubin is the "founder" and CEO of Fanatics - [Did the Tornado Outbreak Affect Mike Trout This Weekend?](https://moonstampsports.com/did-the-tornado-outbreak-affect-mike-trout-this-weekend/) - Welcome back to Jorden on Moon Stamp Sports; I've been both busy and traveling and uninspired, so I haven't been writing. I also feel like I don't know enough about the NBA to comment on anything. And there is a Michael Penis Jr. (yes) blog I need just to publish. But one thing I do - [Five (7) Video Game Remasters I’d Love To See Made](https://moonstampsports.com/five-7-video-game-remasters-id-love-to-see-made/) - In a little under a month, my all time favorite video game is getting its remaster released. Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door comes out on May 23rd and I CANNOT wait to get my hands on it. My GOAT is getting a remastered port to the switch so I can play it on the go! I damn - [When Will Jake from State Farm Appear on a WNBA Bench?](https://moonstampsports.com/when-will-jake-from-state-farm-appear-on-a-wnba-bench/) - I may be about to hit way too deep of a cut, but during college, I really enjoyed South Park. I know, at this point, there is a bit of cheuginess to that, but for some reason, those seasons were just kind of hitting my brain. But, one of the characters from one of the - [Scottie Scheffler and Golf Need a Chael Sonnen](https://moonstampsports.com/scottie-scheffler-and-golf-need-a-chael-sonnen/) - En route to watching Scottie Scheffler win his second Masters in 3 years, I noticed something: he's an incredibly boring guy. Which is probably good for the game of golf at the moment. Right now, the golf world is stuck in a battle for its soul. Or, more realistically, it's stuck in a battle for - [The Warriors, the Astros, and Watching A Dynasty End](https://moonstampsports.com/the-warriors-the-astros-and-watching-a-dynasty-end/) - As far as I can remember, I've only seen two dynasties really die in my lifetime. The first is the most obvious, and that's the New England Patriots. The second is the San Antonio Spurs. There’s an argument to be made about the Lakers, but I’m not sure the time period in which I saw - [The 100th Moon Stamp Sports Blog](https://moonstampsports.com/the-100th-moon-stamp-sports-blog/) - Welcome to the 100th blog on Moon Stamp Sports. We have been at this since August 2023, and have now published 100 blogs. Instead of writing about sports, we wanted to take a second to reflect and see how far the blog has come. If you're new here, take some time reading the writings of - [Ippei Mizuhara is the Quintessential Gambler](https://moonstampsports.com/ippei-mizuhara-is-the-quintessential-gambler/) - No matter how I try to write about something else today, this saga keeps drawing me back in. I’ve already said I don’t care if Shohei gambled, and then issued an apology. There is just something about the Ohtani Ippei storyline that just enthralls me. Remember last football season when the entirety of the country - [Texas A&M is an Unserious Football University](https://moonstampsports.com/texas-am-is-an-unserious-football-university/) - My dislike of Texas A&M has been pretty well documented throughout this blog. Sure, I’ll hate on UT sometimes, but, at the end of the day, I like most of the people who go there. Even for how annoying and pretentious SMU fans are, their dad has at least earned that. But, there is no - [The Surprisingly Honest John Calipari Introductory Press Conference](https://moonstampsports.com/the-surprisingly-honest-john-calipari-introductory-press-conference/) - I, like every other college basketball fan, am still kind of in shock that John Calipari has gone to Arkansas. Just to get this out of the way - I am a blue-blood hater. Maybe it's because they won't invite UConn into their club, or they have this invasively smug attitude. Blue-bloods are just some - [An Open Apology to Shohei Ohtani](https://moonstampsports.com/an-open-apology-to-shohei-ohtani/) - Dear Shohei, It’s me, Jorden. A couple of weeks ago I wrote a blog about how I didn’t care that you were a gambler. Even though I tried to hide behind the lens of an impartial director, in reality, I was almost entirely sure you were in gambling debt. I even spent the majority of - [OJ Simpson and Norm Macdonald: Fired for Being a Hater](https://moonstampsports.com/oj-simpson-and-norm-macdonald-fired-for-being-a-hater/) - My favorite comedian of all time is probably Norm Macdonald. He's also your favorite comedian's favorite comedian. Norm Macdonald just understood how to make people laugh. He also had a keen understanding of how to make people groan; his view of comedy requires the audience to groan sometimes. There were a lot of shining moments - [Explaining the Internet - Where in the World is Kate Middleton?](https://moonstampsports.com/explaining-the-internet-where-in-the-world-is-kate-middleton/) - Welcome to the first iteration of a new series called Explaining the Internet. One of my favorite podcasts is called Reply All, a podcast about the internet. Even though it has gone the way of teen roadtrip movies, I am still inspired by exploring the utter nonsense that is the current internet. I feel the - [The Masters Has Me Jacked to the Tits](https://moonstampsports.com/the-masters-has-me-jacked-to-the-tits/) - Welcome to the best comedown week of the year - Masters week. If you've clicked on this blog and have no idea what the title means, I'll just get that out of the way. I'll be honest I'm not really a huge golf person. Like, sure, I'll see every once in a while to see - [Clear Eyes, Full Hearts, Can't Bet](https://moonstampsports.com/clear-eyes-full-hearts-cant-bet/) - If you remember way back to a week ago, I said I enjoy hypothetical betting since I don't live in a state where I can legally sports gamble. You'll also recall that I use the eye test and the heart to make my picks for the most part, so don't expect me to be a - [Who Gave This Guy the Password? An Introduction](https://moonstampsports.com/who-gave-this-guy-the-password-an-introduction/) - I think of myself as quite the straight shooter, so when I say I mulled about how to start this introduction blog for minutes I hope you believe me. I finally settled on how many important documents or works of literature begin. With a quote. "How the fuck do I even start this?"- Brian "AuricPolaris" - [Masculinity, Fame, and Caleb Williams Crying](https://moonstampsports.com/masculinity-fame-and-caleb-williams-crying/) - Disclaimer before I get too into this post, I don't feel like I've ever had very strong feelings about Caleb Williams. It's not like I haven't interacted with his presence. He was just never in my college football lexicon. Maybe it's because he was at OU, or maybe it was because I had OU quarterbacks - [The Final Hypothetical Betting Blog for the 2023 Football Season](https://moonstampsports.com/the-final-hypothetical-betting-blog-for-the-2023-football-season/) - I was jarred awake this morning, not because my girlfriend’s angels for dogs needed to be let out and my bladder was so full from going out for the first time in months, but because of the smell in the air. It’s that smell that circulates around this country once a year. A smell that - [Double Barrel Blog: Weekend Edition](https://moonstampsports.com/double-barrel-blog-weekend-edition/) - Start your weekend with a double helping of blogs - [The Monday After](https://moonstampsports.com/the-monday-after/) - *Takes a long drag of a cigarette* Well? Was it as good for you as it was for me? The first weekend of March Madness is simply the best 96 hours of basketball in a year. Forty-eight college basketball games back to back to back to back. Score board watching to see how all my picks - [Video Game OSTs to Calm the Soul](https://moonstampsports.com/video-game-osts-to-calm-the-soul/) - Feet first into hell! Set a fire in your heart, Spartan! Fight hard! Die well…wait, shit this is an OST blog, not an ODST blog. Original Sound Track, not Orbital Drop Shock Troopers. Damn, I messed that up. When it comes to music, I’d estimate that most of the population would just skip over a - [The Eclipse Made Me Understand Human Sacrifices](https://moonstampsports.com/the-eclipse-made-me-understand-human-sacrifices/) - Welcome to the sports blog, where we talk about sports. In a way, this is related to sports because what’s so different between Tyreek Hill catching a pass as two men 75 pounds heavier than him rush at him from opposite sides in a trademark Dolphins hospital pass and cutting the heart out of a - [Should we be clowning on the Astros' new social media game?](https://moonstampsports.com/should-we-be-clowning-on-the-astros-new-social-media-game/) - I think we have all kind of accepted that the start of this Astros' season has been a real championship bummer. The Astros still can't hit (consistently) the bullpen is pitching coach pitch games, and starters are falling off. (Side note: the starting pitcher leaguewide issue can be fully blamed on Trevor Bauer. I will - [A Reasonable Reaction to the Astros Starting the Season [Redacted]](https://moonstampsports.com/a-reasonable-reaction-to-the-astros-starting-the-season-redacted/) - Well this is kind of weird, because this blog was started yesterday before the game. To be fair to myself, this was actually almost finished by the first inning of the game, and I thought I could phone it in. This was maybe a mild poor assessment of the Astros after really only seeing one - [Manchester City v. Arsenal: Neither Team Deserves to be Champion](https://moonstampsports.com/manchester-city-v-arsenal-neither-team-deserves-to-be-champion/) - The horrors my eyes have seen know no bounds. Give it up for Pep and Arteta for somehow making an interesting game into a complete hole of nothingness. For seasons now, ranging back to the last decade, the Manchester City I have come to hate had the pride to look at a top-level opponent and - [Should the UH Loss be Blamed on Ted Cruz and Drake?](https://moonstampsports.com/should-the-uh-loss-be-blamed-on-ted-cruz-and-drake/) - I write this as a man conflicted in his soul. This blog was supposed to go out on Saturday, but I could not bring myself to enter the realm of social media. My worry last week had been losing to Duke destroying my love of March. The sports media is infested with commentators from the - [I Don't Care if Shohei Ohtani is a Gambler](https://moonstampsports.com/i-dont-care-if-shohei-ohtani-is-a-gambler/) - I'm not sure if I've mentioned it on this blog, but I genuinely love Shohei Ohtani. Sometimes there's a player you watch and you realize you are watching something so special you may never see it again. I used to think that was the Patriots (at least at the end), but apparently there must always - [UH v. Texas A&M Was Life Threatening for Me](https://moonstampsports.com/uh-v-texas-am-was-life-threatening-for-me/) - Going into Sunday night, I was a little more than worried because it just felt like everything was converging. The "Kelvin can't coach the tournament" narrative was in full swing. UH had fallen out of the tournament is worse rounds since the Final Four run. A&M were also an incredibly hot team. I saw somewhere - [Jack Gohlke - March’s First Cold Ass White Boy Identified](https://moonstampsports.com/jack-gohlke-marchs-first-cold-ass-white-boy-identified/) - One thing that never fails in March is America falls in love with a cold ass white boy. A white boy who just dominates the court. Last year, I’d argue, it was Drew Timme. The year before that Doug Edert upset Kentucky, Purdue, and any other white boy looking to be America’s cold ass white - [Moon Stamp Madness 2024 – West Region (Jorden)](https://moonstampsports.com/moon-stamp-madness-2024-west-region-jorden/) - Welcome to the final regional preview of the Moon Stamp Madness series. I've already previewed the East, South, and Midwest. Now it's time to round everything out with the West. This preview is going to bit a bit different, because I won't go game-by-game, but round-by-round. This is mostly because I hampered myself by writing - [Moon Stamp Madness 2024 – Midwest Region (Jorden)](https://moonstampsports.com/moon-stamp-madness-2024-midwest-region-jorden/) - Welcome to the final non-tournament day of 2024. I've been going region-by-region in the bracket and breaking down my picks. You can read my picks for the East and for the South, but it's not necessary for this blog. I think the Midwest is one of the weaker regions, possibly the weakest with Purdue and - [Moon Stamp Madness 2024 – South Region (Jorden)](https://moonstampsports.com/moon-stamp-madness-2024-south-region-jorden/) - Welcome back to Day 2 of me vibe checking my way through the tournament bracket. I don't think I mentioned it yesterday, but I'm going through the bracket according to one seed rankings. So, today, I'm releasing my picks for the South region of the bracket. If you would like to see my picks for - [Moon Stamp Madness 2024 - East Region (Jorden)](https://moonstampsports.com/moon-stamp-madness-2024-east-region-jorden/) - Welcome to the most wonderful time of my year. For three weekends in a row we are blessed with the best college basketball has to offer, spread out over 65 games (I count play-in games as tournament games). As of writing this, I am yet to mentally choose a national champion. This series is where - [In the Field - AAC Tournament, I Have Become a Temple Fan (Day 2)](https://moonstampsports.com/in-the-field-aac-tournament-i-have-become-a-temple-fan-day-2/) - Welcome back to the in-person coverage of the AAC Men’s Tournament. Yesterday was a lot of words and a lot of new teams and players. I debated even doing this again, but why not use an experience as content, especially when tickets are $5. I’ve also been told that the announcers for the tournament rocked. - [Moon Stamp In the Field - AAC Men’s Championship Tournament (Day 1)](https://moonstampsports.com/moon-stamp-in-the-field-aac-mens-championship-tournament-day-1/) - Last year, I died on the Power 6 conference hill a disgusting amount of times. I was ready to defend the honor of the American Athletic Conference until I was rightfully kicked out of the Arby’s drive thru. Welcome to a series I’m calling Moon Stamp in the Field, where a member of Moon Stamp - [Are China and Tik Tok Influencing the LeBron-Jordan GOAT Debate?](https://moonstampsports.com/are-china-and-tik-tok-influencing-the-lebron-jordan-goat-debate/) - With all the news and debate surrounding Tik Tok and the influence it has, I thought it was time for Moon Stamp to weigh into this debate. I'll be the first to put my hands up and admit I am a huge fan of Chinese spyware. Sure, authoritarian regime and all, but when comparing Chinese - [The Houston Texans Are Giving in to the Power of Free Agency](https://moonstampsports.com/the-houston-texans-are-giving-in-to-the-power-of-free-agency/) - Day one of free agency, when Saquon disappointed Tiki Barber and Texans' rumor mill readers, was a great day to grab a tub of Breggy Bomb salsa (RIP) and watch fireworks fly. By the end of the day, Texans fans were experiencing states of jubilance only comparable to that first playoff game win, marked by - [Who Gave This Guy the Password 2.0](https://moonstampsports.com/who-gave-this-guy-the-password-2-0/) - Reintroductions are in order - [Jurgen Klopp, Liverpool, and the Power of Friendship Versus Manchester City](https://moonstampsports.com/jurgen-klopp-liverpool-and-the-power-of-friendship-versus-manchester-city/) - Jürgen Klopp once said that he played "heavy metal football," a moniker that has defined every YouTube coaching compilation. In reality, he probably should have acted like fan-minded Katara or Teah from Yu-Gi-Oh and said he runs his team on the power of friendship. There is no reason Liverpool should have played as well as - [A Limited Case for Jamal Shead](https://moonstampsports.com/a-limited-case-for-jamal-shead/) - Just a disclaimer off the bat, I don’t think anyone is discrediting Jamal Shead. I don’t think is questioning him as the probable Big 12 Player of the Year. There seems to be no chatter suggesting he doesn’t live up to the hype by Jon Rothstein and Evan Miya. If anything, I’m writing this to - [Oh No! UH Didn't Flounder in the Big 12?](https://moonstampsports.com/oh-no-uh-didnt-flounder-in-the-big-12/) - I distinctly remember a bunch of college basketball fans, more specifically, Big 12 fans. Preseason polls forced me to run into Kansas fans online who would make incredibly bold statements about the AAC. “Wait until you actually have to play real teams.” “Can’t play the cupcake squads anymore.” If I could find it, I’d even - [What does Arch Manning think opting-in to NCAA 2025 entails?](https://moonstampsports.com/what-does-arch-manning-think-opting-in-to-ncaa-2025-entails/) - I, like every other college football adjacent fan, will be blasting headfirst into the new player negotiation simulator when it comes out. As the head coach of the University of Houston, I guarantee a ruthless NIL strategy backed by offshore poker sites and various oil companies who will be the backbone of my award winning - [Russell Wilson Screwed Russell Wilson](https://moonstampsports.com/russell-wilson-screwed-russell-wilson/) - I have spent the past 2 years referring to Russell Wilson as a corn dog of a human being. That is to say he’s incredibly corny in every way. From the way he interacts with his teammates (poorly) to the Gen X Facebook mom Tik Toks he posts, the man oozes accountant whose kids make - [A Guy Who Doesn't Watch MLS Reviews Every Week 1 Game](https://moonstampsports.com/a-guy-who-doesnt-watch-mls-reviews-every-week-1-game/) - Last week I wrote a blog about how I was going to start watching the MLS once the season began. So I decided to just start a "I Will Watch MLS" series. I have always seen it as a periphery league, even though the league is actually in my backyard. I don't have to pay - [The NCAA's New Double Contact Volleyball Rule Makes Sense (As An Outsider)](https://moonstampsports.com/the-ncaas-new-double-contact-volleyball-rule-makes-sense-as-an-outsider/) - Full disclosure, I know basically nothing about volleyball. The extent of my volleyball knowledge is everything I learned watching my sister play volleyball for a few years. Sometimes, when I’m talking to a girl who played volleyball, I break out the word “libero” and shoot for the stars (it doesn’t matter if she’s 6’7 and - [Screw the Nationals, Stephen Strasburg Should Just Stay Home](https://moonstampsports.com/screw-the-nationals-stephen-strasburg-should-just-stay-home/) - Don't worry you are not crazy. Because I also have a very vivid memory of Stephen Strasburg retiring last year. I was also sad to see his career come to an end, after bright and shiny memories of his first start being featured on SportsCenter (I was 14 and it was summer). And then middling - [I Will Watch the 2024 MLS Season](https://moonstampsports.com/i-will-watch-the-2024-mls-season/) - This blog has spoken about soccer more than most undefined American sports blogs. But, as most soccer coverage, I have primarily spoken about European soccer. In most of those blogs I have mentioned that I really don't care all that much about MLS. My soccer red flag is that I really don't care all that - [Daryl Morey Has (Statistically) Ruined Basketball](https://moonstampsports.com/daryl-morey-has-statistically-ruined-basketball/) - One of my favorite jokes to make while watching an NBA game is, “Daryl Morey and his consequences have been a disaster for the human race.” In another life, I look at Daryl Morey and Billy Bean with the same admiration. Each presents a kaleidoscope of raw talent mismashed with delectable bits of data. Yet, - [Very Serious Super Bowl 58 Predictions](https://moonstampsports.com/very-serious-super-bowl-58-predictions/) - As we teeter further into the 2024 earthly cycle, the American wasteland once again welcomes the Great Game. Television has mostly died as a live medium, outside of sports. And if there is one yearly dance that brings the most Americans together, it’s the Super Bowl, or the Harry Potter marathons on Freeform during Christmas - [A Note on Dynasties, Bandwagoning, and Taylor Swift](https://moonstampsports.com/a-note-on-dynasties-bandwagoning-and-taylor-swift/) - This blog was, and to some extent still is, spurred on by Swifties discovering Colin Cowherd because of his Taylor Swift take. In sports media, there is a pretty well-established hierarchy of who is liked. All sports commentators have a good take once or twice a month; if you talk for four hours a day, - [LeBron James and the Sports Betting Inquisition](https://moonstampsports.com/lebron-james-and-the-sports-betting-inquisition/) - This is a topic I've been wanting to wade into, but have also been vaguely afraid to because of how massive sports betting has become. Let me get this off the top - I have no issue with sports betting. I'm not anthropologist or sociologist, but humans seem to have this natural tendency to want - [Darwin Nunez Has Been Cursed by a Witch, Right?](https://moonstampsports.com/darwin-nunez-has-been-cursed-by-a-witch-right/) - This wasn't supposed to be a soccer-posting day, but I just watched Darwin Nunez hit the post 4 times in one game. One of which was a penalty, something I imagine is very hard to do if you're a top-tier professional taking a penalty. I once attended a Nathan's Hot Dog Eating contest to see - [Auric Polaris's Super Bowl Preview (QB/TE)](https://moonstampsports.com/auric-polariss-super-bowl-preview-qb-te/) - How the fuck did we let this happen? This was supposed to be the year where the AFC was wide open, and we would see a new team emerge to compete for a Super Bowl. But after a long bloody playoff, it’s the frog voiced fuck and his walrus coach once again claiming the top - [Jurgen Klopp is Leaving, and Everything is Worse Now](https://moonstampsports.com/jurgen-klopp-is-leaving-and-everything-is-worse-now/) - Last week, I sent my friend the following tweet with the caption, "i'm sadly a huge titans fan now". Little did I know this was not the first Jurgen Klopp quote last week that would send me into a spiral. If you're new, or it isn't clear from my blogs, I'm a massive Liverpool fan. - [Chiefs vs. Bills: A Moon Stamp Sports Review](https://moonstampsports.com/chiefs-vs-bills-a-moon-stamp-sports-review/) - I rarely ever do game reviews on this blog, because for one the market is oversatured and there are guys who are writing way better reviews than I ever could. But secondly, I like focusing on the bigger picture; the review is for talking about a larger narrative, like Dana Holgerson. But that game had - [Big 12 Basketball is the Gift that Keeps Giving](https://moonstampsports.com/big-12-basketball-is-the-gift-that-keeps-giving/) - I've never seen the movie "Any Given Sunday", mostly because I am deathly afraid of Cameron Diaz, but I'd like to imagine the movie is about how any football team can win on any given Sunday. That's not really true though when it comes to football. Other than the Big 10 West, there's not really - [Can We Just Punish Manchester City, Please?](https://moonstampsports.com/can-we-just-punish-manchester-city-please/) - A disclaimer on this blog to start everything off, but I'm a Liverpool fan. This means I have had to Steffon Diggs-stare at sky blue season after season while Manchester City self-funds every purchase through backdoor sponsorships. The complete dynasty that has formed at the top of the Premier League is very much thanks to, - [Bills' Fans Are Better than Any Fanbase](https://moonstampsports.com/bills-fans-are-better-than-any-fanbase/) - Sports fans have the uncanny ability of becoming completely destitute based purely upon a few bad seasons. Patriots fans are ready to take Mac Jones and throw him into the Boston Harbor in hopes of sparking a drafting or trading revolution. Detroit fans most likely sold the soul of their city, similar to Houston, to - [What Happened to Natty Quarterbacks (A Letter to JJ McCarthy's Stats)](https://moonstampsports.com/what-happened-to-natty-quarterbacks-a-letter-to-jj-mccarthys-stats/) - Call me spoiled, call me a classic millennial/Gen Z (take your pick), call me whatever variation of entitlement you want, but what happened to natty-winning quarterbacks. Natty quarterbacking used to mean something. Watching a 21 year-old thoroughly tear through confused, equally-youthful receivers was the game. I may be an air raid snob who was raised - [A Commentary on the Texans' Intentional Safety](https://moonstampsports.com/a-commentary-on-the-texans-intentional-safety/) - There is probably a necessity to start this blog by adding I am undeniably happy the Texans reached the playoffs. I was a hater who began this season with demonstrably low expectations. But, everyone and their dad who swore off the NFL for "being too woke" is writing a column about the Texans. Someone at - [We All Want Washington to Win, Right?](https://moonstampsports.com/we-all-want-washington-to-win-right/) - Every baseball postseason, when the Astros make it to the ALCS or World Series, there is inevitably a map posted all over r/baseball or on Twitter showing every state pulling for the other team. Death, taxes, and all of America going against the Astros. Sometimes even a majority of Texas seems to be going against - [MLS and the Further Degradation of Sports Tradition](https://moonstampsports.com/mls-and-the-further-degradation-of-sports-tradition/) - There have been multiple times on this blog where I’ve mentioned that I really don’t care for MLS, nor do I watch much MLS. Sure, I’ll wake up at 6:30 to watch Liverpool tie with Burnley (I wrote this before Liverpool won today; I will sit in my shame). But, for some reason, I just - [Let's Talk About Leah Vann Covering the Astros for Chron](https://moonstampsports.com/lets-talk-about-leah-vann-covering-the-astros-for-chron/) - Sometimes I can't help but question suspect hiring decisions. Like whenever Duke hires a guy to replace their head coach/narcissist/terrorist with a guy who had never been a head coach before (do not hold me to this standard when Kellen Sampson eventually takes over). Today, the Chron hired Leah Vann to be its sports culture - [My Zion Williamson Conundrum](https://moonstampsports.com/my-zion-williamson-conundrum/) - I’ve wanted nothing more since 2019 than for Zion Williamson to succeed. All the hype surrounding Wembanyama, I found in Zion years ago. He was the answer to the question - what if you made a boulder insanely good at basketball. And I have watched him, for the past 4 years, crumble to meet any - [My Saturday and College Football Escapism (Or Fear and Loathing in an Employment Bardo)](https://moonstampsports.com/my-saturday-and-college-football-escapism-or-fear-and-loathing-in-an-employment-bardo/) - Every once in a while I get personal on this blog. I have this belief that no one reads this blog outside of a few friends and my parents, which I'm thankful for. It is difficult putting out content when you think no one is really reading it; that's my own insecurities on display in - [Which Other Tragedies Can Sean McDermott Use to Inspire the Bills?](https://moonstampsports.com/which-other-tragedies-can-sean-mcdermott-use-to-inspire-the-bills/) - Unlike everyone else online who seems extremely disturbed by Sean McDermott giving props to Al-Qaeda, I get it. I’m glad there’s another person out there who saw ISIS videos and thought “damn those guys have a stellar A/V department.” Or, how it seems like the new Taliban PR team is doing a great job humanizing - [Willie Fritz is Already Winning Me Over](https://moonstampsports.com/willie-fritz-is-already-winning-me-over/) - Full disclosure, I wanted Jeff Traylor. He’s young, he’s successful, and he’s built a successful program in Texas in the last few years. This is a slight lie. I actually wanted Urban Meyer. I don’t care if he would have destroyed the program, or had players committing felonies, he would’ve won a national championship. But - [Manchester City is Third in the Table, Bring Out the Crab Rave](https://moonstampsports.com/manchester-city-is-third-in-the-table-bring-out-the-crab-rave/) - Since 2017, I have been continually tormented by men in sky blue uniforms who have operated a classic music-like orchestra under the direction of a Spanish genius. The only reprieve I received was in 2020, and even then the relief was tainted by the fact that the 11 or so men of my nightmares would - [Florida State Has Been Claimed by the College Football Chaos Scenario](https://moonstampsports.com/florida-state-has-been-claimed-by-the-college-football-chaos-scenario/) - My senior year of college I took a "Politics in Russia" class. The class focused on the post-Russian Revolution politics, and was an insight into how not to manage a country. One of my favorite examples was a pantyhose committee, tasked with figuring out why American pantyhose was superior. Not only did the committee not - [Ethical Dilemma Tuesday: What Should the Texans Have Done to the Refs](https://moonstampsports.com/ethical-dilemma-tuesday-what-should-the-texans-have-done-to-the-refs/) - Listen, as my good friend Tessa put it, maybe South America has it right about dealing with referees. Now, is this an overreaction after watching the refs in the Texans-Jaguars game just continually make horrible calls? Sure. But revolutions aren’t started due to some rational discussion between gentlemen. I’ve seen Les Mis. Revolutions begin when - [Our Long, Dana Holgorsen Nightmare is Over](https://moonstampsports.com/our-long-dana-holgorsen-nightmare-is-over/) - I really haven’t spoken up about Dana’s tenure lately, because there has been nothing to say. Every point or quip I had would have been recycled from previous blogs. And there was nothing new to add; Dana was terrible and a horrible recruiter and an expert at blaming everything other than his coaching. But finally, - [Moon Don't Lie (For the Detroit Lions)](https://moonstampsports.com/moon-dont-lie-for-the-detroit-lions/) - This is actually an apology blog. I'd like to send out an apology to all the astrology girls that I have silently made fun of over the years. Sure, I'd still send my Co-Star birth chart because being into crystals is hot for some reason. But in my head, I'd always think about how it's - [The USMNT Has to Stop Losing to Trinidad and Tobago](https://moonstampsports.com/the-usmnt-has-to-stop-losing-to-trinidad-and-tobago/) - This blog was supposed to start with me reminiscing to 2017, after realizing the US would not be in the 2018 World Cup. It was supposed to detail the stages of grief I experienced in the UH library while the guy next to me eye fucked the girl across the table. The only fucking I - [Texas A&M Continues to Embarrass Itself](https://moonstampsports.com/texas-am-continues-to-embarrass-itself/) - This blog is based off one single tweet from Texas A&M Football. The problem with that tweet is that it personified everything I feel about Texas A&M, and especially Texas A&M sports. I felt this sweeping sense of righteous indignation when I saw what they were bragging about now. Now, you may see that tweet - [I Don't Care Charissa Thompson Made Up Midgame Interviews](https://moonstampsports.com/i-dont-care-charissa-thompson-made-up-midgame-interviews/) - I was absolutely shocked this past week to learn that people care about the journalistic integrity of halftime reporters. Not to be that guy, but I was under the impression we all just tolerated the midgame interviews. Those midgame interviews never actually say anything of importance. You could argue that injury updates mean something, but - [Josh Allen, You’re Breaking My Heart](https://moonstampsports.com/josh-allen-youre-breaking-my-heart/) - I don’t know when it began, but I swoon for Josh Allen every time I see that bearded baby face on television. It wasn’t when he was at Wyoming, and I don’t think it was even in his first season. But there’s just something about the Bills that feels special. Maybe it’s the mystique of - [The NBA In-Season Tournament is Incredibly Stupid (So Far)](https://moonstampsports.com/the-nba-in-season-tournament-is-incredibly-stupid/) - Some guy at the NBA's headquarters started watching soccer last year. He saw the FA Cup and/or the Carabao Cup and said "fellas do I have an idea". I'm guessing this unnamed employee watched the Carabao Cup because the in-season tournament is entering Carabao levels of stupid. That same NBA employee then learned about the - [C.J. Stroud and Casting Out the Demons of Deshaun](https://moonstampsports.com/c-j-stroud-and-casting-out-the-demons-of-deshaun/) - I still love making the joke that someone in the city of Houston circa 2017 decided to sell their soul. Houston sports have always been prone to causing immense amounts of pain for no discernible reason. In a blog about the Texans, I have to remind everyone about the Chiefs game. Houston is a city - [Cristiano Ronaldo Is About to Enter His Joker Era](https://moonstampsports.com/cristiano-ronaldo-is-about-to-enter-his-joker-era/) - In life there are a few constants that keep the universe from falling off a celestial cliff into full-on entropy. Scottie Pippen always playing second fiddle to a Jordan. A Disney adult working with a mostly gums mouth. But the one thing that shines brightest is Ronaldo’s love of Ronaldo. I don’t know if enough - [Connor Stalions Should Be Pardoned By Joe Biden](https://moonstampsports.com/connor-stalions-should-be-pardoned-by-joe-biden/) - At this point, everyone knows the saga of Connor Stalions. This man took his love for Michigan football and turned into the James Bond of collegiate sports. Connor Stalions is what every fan should strive to be: committed, loyal, and rabid. One of my favorite shows is The Young Pope. In the show Pope Pius - [The Sins of the Titans: Stealing Houston's Football Identity](https://moonstampsports.com/the-sins-of-the-titans-stealing-houstons-football-identity/) - Before I start this I should probably put some disclaimer out there that I have no memory of the Oilers in any capacity. That makes sense, because they left Houston the year after I was born. If I had a better concept of ball at that age maybe I would be playing in the NFL - [I Will Never Root for the Texas Rangers](https://moonstampsports.com/i-will-never-root-for-the-texas-rangers/) - Wherever this weird sentiment came from that Astros fans should root for the Rangers can go to the same place Davy Crockett told everyone to go. I'll be honest there was a time I was cool with the Rangers. This was back when the Astros were still slumming it up in the NL, and guys - [The UH-UT Game was the Worst Possible Outcome for a Dana Hater](https://moonstampsports.com/the-uh-ut-game-was-the-worst-possible-outcome-for-a-dana-hater/) - I haven’t been shy about the fact I am a proud Dana Hol hater. I was calling for his head on a platter a couple weeks ago. I’ve been calling for his head on a platter for months now. And I expected to be able to give an “I told you so” after Texas murdered - [Why Do the Rockets Have Such a Lame Season Hashtag?](https://moonstampsports.com/why-do-the-rockets-have-such-a-lame-season-hashtag/) - I'll be honest I've done a less than stellar job following the Rockets these past 5 or so years. I've always been a bigger college basketball person, and I just haven't felt any draw to the NBA like I did when I was younger (this is somehow Daryl Morey's fault). Maybe it also has to - [In Defense of the Game 6 Jon Singleton Decision](https://moonstampsports.com/in-defense-of-the-game-6-jon-singleton-decision/) - During my time as an Astros fan, especially during the past dynastic period, I have seen some very questionable calls by managers. I’ll be honest I don’t remember anything heinous from Phil Garner, other than continually bringing Lidge in during the World Series. AJ Hinch’s Zach Greinke pull was probably the worst I have seen, - [Rangers Fanbase Cheers At Balls Thrown at Altuve, Can’t Take Some Heat](https://moonstampsports.com/rangers-fanbase-cheers-at-balls-thrown-at-altuve-cant-take-some-heat/) - Hey remember a few days ago whenever Altuve was almost drilled by a fastball and the Rangers fans cheered? So imagine my absolute shock whenever the Rangers fanbase and the Rangers team went absolutely nuclear because Adolis Garica was lightly drilled by a pitch. Imagine the depraved mind someone has to have to both live - [People Need to Know About the Internet Return of Chris Chan](https://moonstampsports.com/people-need-to-know-about-the-internet-return-of-chris-chan/) - I know this is a sports blog, but there are some things that transcend the internet medium and need to be spoken about. I should be writing another blog about how the downfall of Neymar made me feel old. But as I sit here watching the Astros game, all I can focus on is the - [The Downfall of Jordan Henderson Made Me Reflect on My Own Life](https://moonstampsports.com/the-downfall-of-jordan-henderson-made-me-reflect-on-my-own-life/) - I always feel the need to start any Liverpool-adjacent blog with a disclaimer. In 2013, when NBC started showing the Premier League and made a big show of it, I decided to start watching. Why not? I loved the Word Cup. I knew who Ronaldo and Messi were. It seemed like a fun sport to - [Dear Astros, I Beg of You, Don’t Lose to the Rangers](https://moonstampsports.com/dear-astros-i-beg-of-you-dont-lose-to-the-rangers/) - I caught myself with a little voice in the back of my head hoping the Astros would blow it to the Twins. That is an evil voice and a voice that is trying let the Goths into the Astros’ Roman Dynasty. But I can’t help but say that voice had a very solid reasoning. Remember - [A Requiem for a Dana Holgorsen](https://moonstampsports.com/a-requiem-for-a-dana-holgorsen/) - I wanted Dana Holgorsen to succeed. Badly. My time at UH had coincided with the revival of UH football under Tom Herman (before the true reinvigoration of UH’s real sport – basketball). Major Applewhite had been a weird direction for the program to go, just like how Major’s dating life goes in weird directions. But - [Sports at the Olympics are Getting Far Too Silly](https://moonstampsports.com/sports-at-the-olympics-are-getting-far-too-silly/) - I'm such an Olympics fan that I end up planning my entire August and February schedules around what sport is on and when. If wrestling is on at 3 in the morning, you know I'm losing my mind over Jordan Burroughs. If swimming is on, I'm actually wondering how Ryan Lochte is doing. My family - [Gonzaga Should Stay West (or Why I Hate the New Age Conference Realignment)](https://moonstampsports.com/gonzaga-should-stay-west/) - Go ahead and call me an old head before you even read the full blog, because I’m going full old head. Imagine me saying that Juice WRLD is whiny and JPEGMAFIA just makes sounds. Hey, even imagine me saying that the NBA has changed for the worse (it has, I watched Dream Team highlights last - [Nathaniel Hackett was Happier Than I'll Ever be After Beating Denver](https://moonstampsports.com/nathaniel-hackett-was-happier-than-ill-ever-be-after-beating-denver/) - I consider myself a vaguely happy person. Vaguely happy only because I'll listen to "I Know the End" on the way home from work while I try not to let the small town cops I disagree viscerally with concept of speed limits. I'm obviously happy at times. In 2017, ten year old Jorden's pain of - [I Have No Clue What to Think About Clayton Kershaw](https://moonstampsports.com/i-have-no-clue-what-to-think-about-clayton-kershaw/) - This is something I’ve thought for a long time, but I’ve never been really able to externalize what I was thinking. I have no clue what to think about Clayton Kershaw. It’s the title of the blog. And it won’t be a long blog, because there’s really not much to say. I could quote statistics - [Texas is Not Back (The Most Wonderful Time of the Year)](https://moonstampsports.com/texas-is-not-back/) - Note: This was supposed to be a pre-written blog, but turned into my ramblings as I watched the blog potentially become worthless. There are a few things I look forward to every year: the first cool day of fall, the first day of March Madness, and whenever my grandmother texts me a late happy birthday. - [FIFA is Rigging the 2034 World Cup Bidding Process for Saudi Arabia](https://moonstampsports.com/fifa-is-rigging-the-2034-world-cup-bidding-process-for-saudi-arabia/) - I was genuinely incredibly excited when I heard the United States was hosting the 2026 World Cup. I was a little less excited when I found out it was going to be played across three countries. Don't get me wrong, I like the idea of a game being played at Stadium Azteca. Not only do - [10 Things Better at Protection than the New York Giants' Offensive Line](https://moonstampsports.com/10-things-better-at-protection-than-the-new-york-giants-offensive-line/) - I hate listicles. It feels like a hacky Buzzfeed move that the one cheating Try Guy and Benny Johnson would be into. But what's worse is making me feel badly for Daniel Jones by genuinely just letting the Seahawks come through the holes like its a kind of sad mid-40s swinger party. So here are - [Dear Taylor, Travis isn't for You](https://moonstampsports.com/dear-taylor-travis-isnt-for-you/) - Dear Taylor, I hope this blog finds you well. Given how the 8 ball was making you act at the VMAs, I would have assumed you were at the Billiard Music Awards... - [Does Deion Sanders have the most manned security?](https://moonstampsports.com/does-deion-sanders-have-the-most-manned-security/) - I think we all know that the hottest man in sports at the moment is Deion Sanders. This may be the only sports blog that has somehow neglected to mention him in any capacity, other than any blog that’s associated with Florida State (see the Travis Hunter incident). To make up for that the title - [Patrick Mahomes' Voice Continually Jump Scares Me](https://moonstampsports.com/patrick-mahomes-voice-continually-jump-scares-me/) - I have watched a lot of football, which means in the past couple years I have watched a lot of Patrick Mahomes. Because I have watched a lot of Patrick Mahomes, I have watched a lot of Patrick Mahomes interviews. And I think it’s time for me to say that I sometimes get jump scared - [Colin Kaepernick's Letter to the Jets is Kind of Lame](https://moonstampsports.com/colin-kaepernicks-letter-is-kind-of-lame/) - Who here hasn’t been broken up with, gone on with life, and then like two years later you think of them out of the blue. And maybe you even went a step further and decided that you wanted to reach out to them. Maybe a simple hey there. Or maybe you reacted to their Instagram - [American Soccer Review - Week of Oct. 2](https://moonstampsports.com/american-soccer-review-oct-2-2023/) - Welcome to the first edition of the American Soccer Review. This is not a review, nor does it really talk about the MLS (I try so hard to get into it but I just can’t; I think it’s because the MLS is on when other American sports are on). This is genuinely just me, an - [At this Point Just Rename the Astros to the Disastros](https://moonstampsports.com/rename-the-astros-to-the-disastros/) - I legitimately do not know how to open this blog because I am so lost as to how the Astros are so comprehensively blowing the AL West. I was going to start with something like: “I think the Astros pitchers really want an October off for once,” “Dusty Baker was happy with one ring, now - [Why aren't the New York Giants playing with an actual giant?](https://moonstampsports.com/why-arent-the-new-york-giants-playing-with-an-actual-giant/) - Tonight, Kirk Herbstreit had me asking the most important question of the season so far: why aren’t the New York Giants playing with a giant? After Daniel Jones blatantly overthrew human giant Darren Waller, Kirk Herbstreit blamed Waller for not “helping out his quarterback.” Even though Waller is 6’6, on the run, and jumped to - [Vince McMahon Jeb Bushed Himself in a Company Meeting](https://moonstampsports.com/vince-mcmahon-jeb-bushed-himself/) - There are few things worse than you and all very cool and very real friends are chilling, drinking couple brewskis and talking about broads, when all of a sudden you realize no one laughed at your funny story. You look around in complete shame as their eyes yearn for something more, but you have exhausted - [What is Mike McDaniel's 40-yard dash time?](https://moonstampsports.com/mike-mcdaniel-40-yard-dash/) - We all know that Mike McDaniel is the chilliest coach in the entire league, and I do not say that ironically. My man decided mid-game to hit his vape and tried to act like no one would notice an NFL head coach needing a hit. Live television isn’t ENGL 3301 where the professor is also ## Pages - [Moon Stamp Sports Link Page](https://moonstampsports.com/moon-stamp-sports-link-page/) - Read Moon Stamp Sports Find Moon Stamp Socials Listen on Spotify Listen on Apple Podcasts Watch on YouTube Listen on Amazon Music Listen on iHeartRadio Listen on Castbox - [Socials](https://moonstampsports.com/socials/) - Twitter/X Facebook Instagram YouTube TikTok Reddit - [About](https://moonstampsports.com/about/) - Welcome to Moon Stamp Sports!
