It’s no secret that sports fans have opinions. And, more often than not, you’ve got to learn how to defend them. Let’s take a look at some hot sports topics at the moment:
Answers: Johnny Gold (head softball coach at Marblehead High School)
Who would you rather have on your team, Caitlin Clark or Angel Reese?
“I, probably, will go with Caitlin Clark – mainly because I’m amazed with how great of a passer she is. They’re both great players, but Clark’s passing gives her the edge.”
Should Drake Maye or Jacoby Brissett be the Patriots’ starting quarterback for Week 1?
“That’s a great question. If he’s ready, I think Maye should start. If he’s not ready, and only the Patriots’ coaches know, Brissett may start. I think they’ll do what’s best. I put my faith behind the coaching staff. ”
Do you like how the College Football Playoffs have been expanded from four to 12 teams?
“I do. I like it a lot. It’s great for viewership and we can watch something special. I’m not sure that every year, it’s really the best four teams… so it should be fun to watch more teams compete.”
Should U.S. men’s basketball coach Steve Kerr have given more minutes to Jayson Tatum in the Olympics, or did Kerr make the right call en route to the gold medal?
“First of all, they won it. I don’t understand the whole situation with Tatum. I wish he played more, but I’m more concerned with the reasoning behind Jaylen Brown. I don’t understand how the MVP of the Eastern Conference Finals and the MVP of the NBA Finals didn’t get selected.”
When is the right time to select a quarterback in a Fantasy Football draft?
“I think it all depends on what type of league you’re in. When I used to play, I used to draft one in the middle rounds. However, sometimes, it’s best to get one early to get one of those running quarterbacks who will put up more points.”
