Congratulations on completing the first full work week of 2019.
Bring on the weekend,
The Last Night’s Game Team
NFL (NATIONAL FOOTBALL LEAGUE)
NFL referee Sarah Thomas will make history this weekend when she calls the Los Angeles Chargers – New England Patriots playoff game. She will be the first woman to officiate a postseason game. STORMING THE SIDELINE
OVERTIME
Current minor league baseball player and former NFL quarterback Tim Tebow is engaged to former Miss Universe Demi-Leigh Nel-Peters. The two-sport athlete popped the question on his family’s farm outside of Jacksonville, FL with a 7.25 karat ring. WILL HE “TEBOW” AT THE ALTAR?
SIDELINE STAT
The NFL playoffs continue this weekend with a game for the blue hairs. Tom Brady (age 41 – New England Patriots) and Philip Rivers (age 37 – Los Angeles Chargers) are the starting quarterbacks for the game. Their combined age of 78 is the oldest ever for two starting quarterbacks in an NFL postseason game. AS LONG AS THEY CAN BE IN BED BY 8 PM
COACHES’ CORNER
Need some New Year’s resolution inspiration? Bring on the Sports Illustrated Fittest 50 – highlighting the hard working, most in shape athletes. New York Giants (NFL) rookie Saquon Barkley claimed the top spot for the men and gymnast Simone Biles took home the title for the women. Others on the list include soccer player Cristiano Ronaldo, skier Lindsey Vonn, tennis player Novak Djokovic and swimmer Katie Ledecky. THAT’S SOME TOUGH COMPETITION
