From Kenyan to the NFL

Rugby star Daniel Adongo from Kenyan was recently signed by the colts and has already seen special team action He spent 13 weeks of the season on the practice squad playing outside linebacker. Now your thinking whats the big deal? When the colts signed Adongo in July he didn't even know ho to put on pads. Four months later he is making an impact on special teams, and could become a starter in the league. The colts watched rugby film and saw some potential with speed and strong tackling skills. This guy is a beast since joining the colts he already gained 30 pounds making him 270. He is a scary athlete, playing rugby myself Adongo seems like a man among boys. Looking forward to see the impact he can make in the NFL.

Who Wins the Circus Act???

This week it sports had two "comedian" acts in which head coaches try to play off free time outs or help to contribute or not. They both were caught, possibly facing penalties which is highly doubtful. I mean come guys you are professional coaches, if your going to cheat do it in a more secluded way. Leaving the final key words "Come on man".


Here new head coach Jason Kidd tries to buy extra time by spelling out "Hit Me" to one of players to knock over  a cup of water. Everyone could easily tell what was going. At least try to make it look like a accident.

Although Kidds antidote was some what amusing, it can't compare to the trick Mike Tomlin tried to play during Thursdays game against the Baltimore Ravens.


Finishing off turkey night football, Jacoby Jones was taking a kick-off back which liked to be a score until he ran into past Pittsburgh Steelers Coach Mike Tomlin who was on the field appearing to watching the kick-off on the opposite side  scoreboard. This resulted in Jones to lose speed letting more Steelers players pursue and make the tackle. Although this incident didn't change the score it still was a point of recognition guarding a coaching fault that occurred on purpose. Tomlin should have realized his location to prevent his from happening which could
result in some sort of sanctions.

So my question is to everyone is which incident is more obvious or which one could of had changed the game. In addition should either coach be fined or suspended. Personally I believe that neither should face sanctions, they should get enough for looking so unprofessional on a national stage. However next time if some type of issue occurs that league should handle the situation in an appropriate manner
