SoSportz.com- Week in and week out Cam Newton's performance has been filled with highlights. He's throwing the ball long to Steve Smith, he's running the ball like a running back, and his elusiveness has been out of this world. There were so many people doubting him before he came to the NFL because of his off the field issues and concerns about his ability to play in a pro-style offense. He has shut all the doubters up and is having a sensational year. Even though the Carolina Panthers have a 2-6 record, they have to be happy with the play of their quarterback and the future of the organization with Newton leading them. They are in a tough conference in the NFC South with teams like the New Orleans Saints, Atlanta Falcons, and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The season is at the halfway mark and Newton will continue to play great football. In a few years, the Panthers will be a team everyone is talking about.
SoSportz.com- Derrick Rose is one of the best in the game and has become a superstar on the court. With the release of adizero Rose 2, Rose is also trying to make some noise in the sneaker game. I don't think anyone will be able to compete with Jordan off the court but I think Rose is heading in the right direction.

SoSportz.com- A lockout means one thing, MONEY. With the owners and players battling over several issues including the biggest issue which is the revenue split, I was thinking the players could make more money if they started their own league. To keep in game shape and to continue to play the game they love, NBA players have been playing in charity and exhibition games across the country. The games have been a big success. Crowds are filling the stadiums and the players are treating them like regular season games. With amazing dunks, crossovers, and buzzer beaters, the fans are getting their monies worth. Think about this: If the players started their own league, they would get the ticket sales, apparel sales, media deals, etc. All the money would go to them. There is no NBA without the product(players) so the product can branch out on their own and start their own league. What do you think? What would be the name of the league?

SoSportz.com- The biggest deal ever given to a running back was awarded to Adrian Peterson today. The terms were a seven-year $100 million contract with $36 million guaranteed. The deal was $6 million more than Tennessee Titans running back Chris Johnson. With his running style and the decline of play of running backs once they reach the age of 30, it will be tough for Peterson to play out his contract for he will be 33 years old by the end of his deal. He has definitely earned it and will consistently be one of the top backs in the NFL for years to come.
