The Philadelphia Eagles saw a drama filled 2016-17 NFL season with the sudden departure of Sam Bradford following the promising Carson Wentz contract signed in the draft. While the rookie quarterback had an impressive first year in the league, his efforts fell short compared to the accomplishments of Dallas Cowboys star Dak Prescott. The results are said to have prompted the front office to look into a Kirk Cousins trade to provide Carson Wentz with a veteran presence in the post.

The Denver Broncos went from having two great quarterbacks in Peyton Manning and Brock Osweiler to fielding a third stringer and a rookie as their starters. With their disappointing 2016-17 NFL season, the former Super Bowl champs are undoubtedly raring to fix the mess they've made of their winning team. With this in mind, many point to a future Jimmy Garoppolo contract coming in the Von Miller squad soon.

The Oklahoma City Thunder made a surprising move with the Taj Gibson trade, which also included a Doug McDermitt contract, before the NBA trade deadline expired. With the Russell Westbrook stats on the rise this season, many believe that adding the former Chicago Bulls stars would give Kevin Durant and Stephen Curry a run for their money come the playoffs. However, it looks like the Steven Adams team has another NBA trade up their sleeve.

The Chicago Bulls are attempting to save what was supposed to be their comeback season - the one expected to redeem Jimmy Butler since the Derrick Rose trade to the New York Knicks. However, it looks like the addition of Dwyane Wade and Rajon Rondo to the Nikola Mirotic team did minimal good to their success. Should they bring in another All-Star in the form of a Carmelo Anthony trade to go back to their Michael Jordan glory days?

The Cleveland Cavaliers are working overtime to make sure that they keep the NBA championship trophy in LeBron James' hometown. This means that the NBA trade talks had been of great interest to Kyrie Irving and his team especially since the Boston Celtics initially planned to sign either a Paul George trade or a Jimmy Butler trade. Although the deadline has come and gone, the Kevin Love squad refuses to relax and is said to be planning some major changes before the season ends.

The New York Knicks are said to be gearing up for a major move involving either a Carmelo Anthony trade or a Derrick Rose trade this NBA season. With these huge contracts out of the way, Phil Jackson would have enough cap space to sign big and rising stars to build a team around Kristaps Porzingis. Does this mean that a Reggie Jackson trade could be happening soon?

The Los Angeles Clippers appear to be cutting their losses early this NBA season. Since the Golden State Warriors arguably created an unbeatable team with Stephen Curry, Kevin Durant and Draymond Green, it looks like the Western Conference teams would need to up their games exponentially. For DeAndre Jordan and his team, this could mean investing on a Jimmy Butler trade to form a stronger and more reliable Big 3.

The NBA trade talks have been gaining steam before the deadline especially since a number of players, such as Jimmy Butler, Carmelo Anthony and Paul George, are said to be available to negotiate. Among the basketball teams anticipated to announce a huge change this season is the Boston Celtics. To be specific, many believe that Isaiah Thomas and Marcus Smart just might see a Rajon Rondo contract signed, sealed and delivered in their midst soon.

The Golden State Warriors are keeping an eye out of the Western Conference NBA trade talks especially after the shocking DeMarcus Cousins trade to the New Orleans Pelicans. With the former Sacramento Kings leader joining forces with Anthony Davis, the teamup of Kevin Durant, Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson and Draymond Green may be facing serious competition. With this in mind, it looks like the Zaza Pachulia team might need reinforcements once again.

Tim Tebow has come under criticism on Twitter after praising the upcoming film "The Shack," a film based on a novel of the same title that depicts God as a woman and has been the subject of debate among Christians for years.

The Dallas Cowboys stunned the NFL world when the Dez Bryant squad managed to dominate the league despite facing Tony Romo injury issues early in the season. With rookie Dak Prescott leading the football squad, no one was the wiser when the quarterback and fellow newcomer Ezekiel Elliot topped the stats in almost all the games. While these achievements spell a great future for Jerry Jones’ team, it looks like these will also signal the end of an era.

The Sacramento Kings now face the biggest backlash thus far in NBA history following their alleged botched DeMarcus Cousins trade deal with the New Orleans Pelicans. Since Boogie has been widely considered as an elite player in the league, many believe that the team was underpaid in the negotiations. However, the Sacramento Kings might just have a trick up their sleeve to possibly salvage their reputation in the NBA.

The San Antonio Spurs are considered as one of the best teams in the NBA today. Despite the exit of Tim Duncan in the offseason, the team smoothly transitioned to regard Kawhi Leonard, Danny Green and LaMarcus Aldridge as their new Big 3. However, the entry of Kevin Durant in the Golden State Warriors roster makes it even more challenging to topple the team led by Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson and Draymond Green. Will a Ricky Rubio trade boost the San Antonio Spurs’ chances this NBA season?

After losing LeBron James and Dwyane Wade over quibbling their contract, it looks like Pat Riley is raring to get the Miami Heat back on track. With Hassan Whiteside and Goran Dragic flailing in their mission to save the team this season, the front office seems to realize that a player with an All-Star status is sorely missing in the lineup. Hence, a Blake Griffin trade is reported to be in the works.

Are we about to witness another basketball divorce akin to the Kevin Durant, Russell Westbrook drama in the Oklahoma City Thunder? Is Kyle Lowry gearing up to create a superteam alongside Isaiah Thomas and Marcus Smart in the Boston Celtics, leaving DeMar DeRozan to fend for the Toronto Raptors alone?

The NBA trade deadline is fast approaching, bringing with it the excitement of potential blockbuster deals. The trade circus has already seen one huge surprise in the form of the DeMarcus Cousins trade to the New Orleans Pelicans to join fellow All-Star Anthony Davis. With Blake Griffin, Jimmy Butler and Carmelo Anthony also anticipated to don new uniforms soon, fans are having a field day figuring out the next big move.

The Los Angeles Lakers surprised the league when the once Kobe Bryant team opted to turn to younger stars as their go-to leaders in games. Starting off with signing former Golden State Warriors coach Luke Walton, the Nick Young squad pushed forward to give D’Angelo Russell, Jordan Clarkson and Larry Nance, Jr more minutes to prove themselves. Despite their notable growth though, it appears that a veteran might be needed to lead them to the top.

The New York Knicks are reported to be preparing for a major rebuild starting this NBA season. With a Carmelo Anthony trade anticipated to go through soon, the front office seems to be gearing up to get out of the Derrick Rose contract as well. This leaves the New York Knicks in the hands of Kristaps Porzingis who is still in his sophomore year in the league. However, a Jeremy Lin trade is said to be in the works in an effort to lend support to the Latvian star.

The Houston Rockets are steadily climbing the Western Conference, landing the third spot behind the Golden State Warriors and San Antonio Spurs. With the James Harden era reaching its peak this basketball season, it looks like the playoffs will be an intense face-off soon. Now, reports are surfacing that a Carmelo Anthony trade could be coming to the Eric Gordon squad. Can a Melo-James Harden teamup topple the Stephen Curry-Kevin Durant tandem?

The NBA All-Star 2017 may have ended but the excitement goes on in the league. After the shocking DeMarcus Cousins trade, it appears that another All-Star is on his way out of his current basketball team. Refusing to take the backseat in the competition against the Golden State Warriors for the top seed, it looks like Russell Westbrook and his team have finally found a way to counter the super team of Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson and Kevin Durant.

A 20-year-old rule banning religious headgear in competitive basketball could be eliminated, clearing the way for athletes to wear hijabs, turbans and yarmulkes in international competitions.

The Western Conference teams now have to double their efforts as the DeMarcus Cousins trade appears to promise the imminent rise of the New Orleans Pelicans in the league. Simply based on the stats of the former Sacramento Kings star and NBA All-Star MVP Anthony Davis, the Jrue Holiday team is anticipated to rise to challenge the Golden State Warriors as the top seed. Not only that, it looks like the Norris Cole squad finally has the answer to the super team of Stephen Curry, Kevin Durant, and Klay Thompson.

Faith allows people to put everything into perspective, said Mark Jackson, former Golden State Warriors head basketball coach who once served as the pastor of True Love Worship Center International in Reseda, Calif.

MMA fighter Derek Brunson, who is gearing up to fight Anderson "The Spider" Silva at UFC 208 on Saturday, recently shared with The Gospel Herald how his Christian faith allows him to keep his career in perspective.

One of the most well-known broadcasters in America's history, Paul Harvey, voiced a powerful and straightforward Super Bowl TV commercial for Ram Trucks in 1978, which is being lifted up today as one of the most memorable Super Bowl ads of the past...partially because God plays a starring role in the commercial.
