David Eckert

My name is David Eckert and I am from New York. I currently attend SDSU and study journalism media studies. I enjoy sports, music, and entertainment.

@DeMarkusMcNeal Not a bad take, if Jamal Murray can continue his stellar play the Nuggets definitely have what it takes to make it out of the west. 76ers is what concerns me. There sweep of the Nets doesn’t impress me at all. Ultimately I see them losing in 7 to the Celtics. #SDSUJMS416

The New York Knicks are up 3-1!! Clutch performance from Rj Barrett today and Brunson doing what he does best! It has been Mitchell Robinson that has impressed me the most. Solidifying himself as one of the greatest rebounders in the entire NBA. #SDSUJMS416

@msmall_ He might be the game changer in this series. Having him back may give the warriors the edge in this series despite losing game 1. With all their players back, it is really hard to imagine the Kings, or any team for that matter, beating this roster is a 7 game series. #SDSUJMS416

[David Eckert @DavidEckert55]

The NBA playoffs are underway and the Knicks win a huge game 1 on the road! Huge performances from Brunson and Randle with strong play from the bench. If the series is anything like game 1, the Cavs bench is going to need to step it up, as they were outscored by 30+. #SDSUJMS416

@SamanthaBicket1 @isabellakunde_ @ViejasArena @Aztec_MBB We are so lucky we got to witness this team make that run. Truly once in a lifetime experience and I’m just happy it happened before we graduated. Seeing everyone come together on campus for the championship was remarkable. I love this team!! #SDSUJMS416

[David Eckert @DavidEckert55]

NBA playoffs are approaching and I’m still baffled at the fact that the Mavericks are eliminated. Honestly it’s disappointing that we won’t get to watch Luka and Kyrie play playoff basketball together. Just goes to show what type of player Jalen Brunson is 🤷‍♂️ #SDSUJMS416

@morganprickett1 @DeMarkusMcNeal I don’t think I’ve ever been more excited for a sports game in my entire life!! Atmosphere was electric yesterday, just imagine what this campus will look like after winning a national championship. LETS GO AZTECS!!! #SDSUJMS416

The MLB season has started and there already has been an unprecedented amount of pitcher and hitter violations. I’m interested to see how fans, coaches, and players adapt to this rule change. I’m very curious to see how the season plays out. #SDSUJMS416

[David Eckert @DavidEckert55]

@LizJMS416 If SDSU makes the final four campus atmosphere is going to be wild! First elite-eight in not only program, but conference history! Hard to deny our basketball team doesn’t belong in the PAC-12 after this run! Super excited for what the future holds for this program. #SDSUJMS416

The World Baseball Classic has come to an end and Japan has come out victorious! Upsetting team USA in a tournament that will surely go down as the greatest WBC ever. Huge win for baseball: super exciting finish and you gotta love an upset. Documentary coming soon?? #SDSUJMS416

[David Eckert @DavidEckert55]

@jaedanchase I would argue Houston has an easier path to the final four than Alabama. Having to face a red hot, well coached SDSU team isn’t going to be easy. Additionally, don’t be surprised if they have to face Creighton, a severely under ranked squad in the elite eight. #SDSUJMS416

[David Eckert @DavidEckert55]

My favorite part of the World Baseball Classic is watching Mike Trout play meaningful baseball in a playoff atmosphere. He continues to prove he is the best baseball player in the world. It’s truly a shame that the Angels can’t give him any help year after year. #SDSUJMS416

[David Eckert @DavidEckert55]

@itsjustincox @msmall_ It’s going to be difficult for the Mavericks to win a series of 7 against the Suns. However, it is extremely likely that they will meet at some point in the playoffs. Two powerhouses in the west, KD and Kyrie’s history, has the potential to be an iconic matchup. #SDSUJMS416

[David Eckert @DavidEckert55]

Derek Carr has just been signed by the New Orleans Saints. Great opportunity for him to play with some talented wide receivers. As for the Jets, their main concern is signing Aaron Rodgers. Personally, it’s sign Rodgers or bust!! #SDSUJMS416

[David Eckert @DavidEckert55]

@jaedanchase @BleacherReport @DBITLefty Max Scherzer is a perfect example of pitchers using the pitch clock to their advantage. I think the clock will make it difficult for the average starter, but the talented veterans of the league have already seemed to implement their own unique strategy. #SDSUJMS416

[David Eckert @DavidEckert55]

Ja Morant has officially been suspended for at least two games by the Grizzlies front office. It’s likely that Adam Silver will enforce an even larger suspension after his investigation. Hard to watch such a talented player tarnish his name at such a young age… #SDSUJMS416

[David Eckert @DavidEckert55]

@NicoleBeckelman The atmosphere is always electric in Viejas arena! Not to discredit Coach Dutcher but it is hard for any team to beat the Aztecs at Viejas. The crowd definitely has a way of boosting team morale and gives our players that extra motivation. #SDSUJMS416

[David Eckert @DavidEckert55]

Derek Carr visited the New York Jets this week and reports have said the meeting was “extremely positive”. Great look for the Jets. Even though Rogers is their primary target, the front office is still proactively talking to other quarterbacks. #SDSUJMS416

[David Eckert @DavidEckert55]

@msmall_ As a Knicks fan, I am disappointed. Mac McClung truly saved the dunk contest. So impressed by his performance and creativity. Do you think this performance can help him get out of the G league? Or is the dunk contest irrelevant to in-game skill?#SDSUJMS416

[David Eckert @DavidEckert55]

Kevin Durant just stated that he’d like to end his career with the Phoenix Suns. Given his track record I find this hard to believe. If the Suns don’t win a championship within his contracts time frame, will he stay loyal to Phoenix? #SDSUJMS416
