It's easy to be snarky about young players who deserve a comeuppance and get it. It's more rewarding to watch them bounce back and take a couple steps forward. A week two toast to JOHNNY MANZIEL and JAMEIS WINSTON... The NFL's new extra-point rule has led to complaints, experiments and of course misses. I'm a fan. The traditional chip-shot extra point was one of the weirdest plays in sport, the equivalent of awarding a bonus point for a gimme putt or an undefended layup. It's refreshing to see kickers actually have to make a play to earn their point... Upset of the weekend, aka miracle on grass... JAMES DOLAN's decision to sell CABLEVISION but not MADISON SQUARE GARDEN is more proof that KNICKS fans really, really can't catch a break... LEBRON's shooting percentages last season, based on what accessories he's wearing.
