Who did miss?

[JEROME @x_jerometakes]

How come the best player in the best league in the world finish 27th in the ballon d'or?

[JEROME @x_jerometakes]

How is that not a red card for Cole Palmer?
Rodrigo Bentancur and Phil Foden sent off for similar reactions this season.

[JEROME @x_jerometakes]

How many of those errors leading to goal has Marc Guehi committed since he joined Manchester City?

[JEROME @x_jerometakes]

Its showtime in DC.
Bucks vs Wizard.
Let's go Ryan Rollins
We getting the double double on opening night.

[JEROME @x_jerometakes]

24. Mamukelashvili, RJ Barret, Tyler Herro, Cason Wallace and Andrew Wiggins are my top 5 for most improved player award

25. If Gianni's is healthy no team in the East is touching Miami Heat.
26. OKC and Spurs still favorites in the West.

My takes for 2026/2027 NBA season.

1. Luka Doncic wins MVP
2. Wemby should watch Erling Haaland clips and just get buckets
3. LeBron James will average less than 15 PPG
4. Cade Cunningham all NBA
5. Steph Curry can't play 10 games in a row.
6. Kevin Durant is still him.

[JEROME @x_jerometakes]

20. Randle and Michael Porter Jnr in one team choking shots from all angles will be so difficult to watch.
21. All for Trey Murphy moving on from Pelicans this year
22. Beardless James Harden can't bite.
23. Kawhi will make some noise with Toronto.

[JEROME @x_jerometakes]

30 minutes played in Leeds vs Manchester United.
Nothing exciting from both sides. Just fouls and throw ins.

[JEROME @x_jerometakes]

I fear for Rodri against these PSG midfielders on Tuesday.

[JEROME @x_jerometakes]

Lamine Yamal raises a gear up in the second half and Barcelona are ahead at Galatasaray.
Meanwhile Michael Carrick still has Cunha and Amad on the bench while Manchester United is down at Atletico

[JEROME @x_jerometakes]

San Antonio Spurs have to sit Wembanyama down and watch Erling Haaland clips.
Drop the Kevin Durant gimmick and be a predator in the paint

[JEROME @x_jerometakes]

Am I the only one who thinks Ayyoub Bouaddi will do a better job in build up for Manchester City in that Elliot Anderson role.
Not sure about the OOP but on the ball I see him creating better opens

[JEROME @x_jerometakes]

No Dominik Szoboszlai for Liverpool against ManCity.
Watch Wirtz get assist from set pieces
VVD, Aruajo and Jacquet will get better deliveries from him.

[JEROME @x_jerometakes]

Wow
Roman Reigns and LA Knight giving us a WrestleMania caliber match at Money In The Bank

[JEROME @x_jerometakes]

Roman Reigns is so good with this 2.99 kickouts

[JEROME @x_jerometakes]

Real Madrid should stop this attitude of over complaining every referee decision
Against Villarreal at home just play good football and get your e points
