J’Mar Smith taunts St. Louis
Smith slung a touchdown to Cade Johnson and let the Battlehawks know about it. He mimicked shooting a bow-and-arrow, celebrating in Travis Feeney’s face after the touchdown pass.
I do this ****
After surging through the offensive line to make a tackle for loss, Arlington linebacker Charlie Thomas reminded DC quarterback Jordan Ta’amu to watch out for him.
Yea Buddy!
Dee Anderson celebrated with his fellow San Antonio wide receivers after hauling in a touchdown pass to complete a trick play. The Brahmas had quarterback Kevin Hogan toss a lateral to tight end Steven Stilianos, to pull the defense in and allow Anderson to get open downfield. It worked as Stilianos hit Anderson, who rightfully celebrated.

That’s what the **** I’m talking about
Keni-H Lovely dove to intercept a Houston screen pass, regained his footing, and returned it for a pick-six. His teammates met him in the end zone to commend him for the intuitive play.
Great ******* job
Luis Perez emphatically thanked running back Dae Dae Hunter after he made a heads-up play. The Defenders had just strip-sacked Perez and Devonnsha Maxwell was about to break the plane when Hunter chased him down and caused a fumble that resulted in Arlington regaining possession.
Throw the damn ball!
Birmingham head coach Skip Holtz expressed his displeasure when J’Mar Smith held onto the ball for too long and took a sack.
Good **** man!
J’Mar Smith’s teammates dapped him up and hyped him up after he stayed tough through a hit and delivered a touchdown pass to Deon Cain.
Oh my goodness!
A reaction of pure shock came from Arlington head coach Bob Stoops after Tyler Vaughns made an incredible one-handed touchdown grab.

Long throws are in vogue in the Premier League – Rory Delap and Stoke will be proud
The defining moment of Stoke City’s 10 years in the Premier League came on November 29, 2008.They were playing Hull City at home, whose defender Kamil Zayatte had just played a backpass to goalkeeper Boaz Myhill.Myhill was immediately closed down by two Stoke attackers, so the standard clearance up the pitch was not an option. There wasn’t a short pass on. The next most logical choice was to go sideways and put it out for a throw — not ideal, but it would have dealt with the immediate issues. After all, how dangerous can a throw-in really be?But Myhill stopped, hesitated, stuttered, regretted every one of his life decisions that had led him to this point, weighed up his options… and kicked it out for a corner. Underrated Premier League moment No.51. Boaz Myhill kicking the ball out for a […]
Jude Bellingham’s shoulder surgery: What impact will it have on Real Madrid? Might they buy a midfielder?
Jude Bellingham is set to undergo shoulder surgery after Real Madrid’s participation at the revamped Club World Cup this summer, which is expected to rule him out for the opening months of the 2025-26 season. The England midfielder dislocated his left shoulder in November 2023 in a league match against Rayo Vallecano. He missed the next four matches for Madrid and England but has played on since, often with strapping on his shoulder. AdvertisementSpecialists consulted by The Athletic indicated that Bellingham will likely be sidelined for around 12 weeks while he recovers from the operation, which is likely to take place in July. That will leave Madrid without one of their key players for a chunk of the next campaign. So what does this mean for Madrid? How much will they miss Bellingham? And will it have an impact on their summer plans?Why […]
