This Week's UPDATES

The first week of September was a doozy and the second is gonna get even better for so many out there. I finally start the fall semester in college on Tuesday and there's no doubt in my mind that going back to school in September will bring back good old memories. I can remember a few of my first days in Elementary, Junior High, and High School of which were a fresh start and soon I will begin a new chapter in my education this Tuesday, but there's a lot to get done before then and I am not just talking about school supplies. We've got another 7-Day Round-Up in us after a summer of chaos these past few months, and the Fall is gonna get real hot with new shows and movies coming on TV and in theaters respectively. Sports fans are looking forward to Postseason Baseball and the start of Football Season today, in fact there's a lot of chatter in the Football World things got even started, take a look.


    7-Day Round-Up

Week One of the 100th NFL Season starts today twenty-six teams competing in thirteen games and questions remain unanswered on what we're going to from each team. Last Thursday, the Chicago Bears fell to the Green Bay Packers in what was the post show of defense since the Super Bowl last February. I feel that there will be a lot of offense on display today with teams upgrading their roster with new players, new coaching staff and new looking uniforms. Let's not forget there's still more Baseball left to played and trams in the MLB are still scrambling who can take the No. 1 Seed in the league, maybe we'll see who gets into the postseason first this week as we now settle in a new Max Sports rundown.

Our Main Story this week is about Antonio Brown, the wide receiver from the NFL who has been on move all year around. He was traded from the Pittsburgh Steelers to the Oakland Raiders back during the off-season, then on August 9, he filed a grievance to continue wearing his old helmet even though it was banned, and threatened to retire if he was forced to wear a new one. Despite all of this, he was denied his request not once but twice. Brown would eventually find a replacement for his old helmet, but it also did not meet the standards of the NFL. Last Wednesday, Brown chose to wear the Xenith Shadow helmet for the 2019 season, but in the next few days things got a really crazy. It was reported that Brown got into some sort of heated exchange with Raiders general manger Mike Mayock, but regardless of this, Raiders head coach Jon Gruden said that Brown would play in Week 1 against the Denver Broncos. Yesterday morning when I was finishing this week's 7-Day Round-Up, I received that Antonio Brown asked to be released by the Raiders, and sure enough the team granted him his wish. Then at around at 4PM yesterday, football insiders announced that Brown has agreed to sign with the New England Patriots for a one-year contract worth up to $15 million, with a $9 million signing bonus. Now, Brown will not participate in tonight's season opener between his new team and old team in the Steelers, but we can see him in action next week against the Miami Dolphins. In the meantime, see all of the drama from yesterday in a wildly-new Web Choice playlist.
