It’s been two games for Rhode Island Rams basketball, and we’ve already seen two completely different teams take the floor.

The Rams opened the season wonderfully. In David Cox’s head coaching debut with URI, Rhody ran the Bryant Bulldogs out of the Ryan Center, 97-63. They jumped out to an 11-0 lead right away, behind 8 points from Fatts Russell, and never looked back. Jeff Dowtin’s buzzer-beating three to close out the first half made it 49-32 in favor of the Rams.

When at first you don’t succeed, try, try again.

Then, try again and again and again and again and again and again and you get the point.

For the third consecutive election cycle where a democrat is not the incumbent in office, Hillary Clinton will be campaigning to receive the title of Commander in Chief.

A bye week is a time where teams take the time to regroup, refocus, and prepare themselves for what would be the ‘second half’ of their season. For the New England Patriots, the having the bye week during the latter part of the season (during Week 11 to be precise) would help them heal up their injured players and get ready for the postseason push. But before taking the week off, they had to travel down to Nashville, Tennessee to take on the Tennessee Titans.

However waiting for them in Nashville were a slew of former Patriots players and personnel, including RB Dion Lewis, CBs Logan Ryan and Malcom Butler, and former LB turned head coach Mike Vrabel. When the final gun sound, the Patriots ended up going into the bye week limping and licking their wounds after suffering their worse loss of the season.

In life there are few people that give off the impression of being larger than life. A true combination of size, strength, and personality, Robert James Gronkowski is the definition of that.

6’6”  270 pounds, a pure freak-of-nature mixed with a loveable meathead, is a rare breed to say the least. Gronk brings power, skill, intelligence, and finesse that have never been seen out of the tight end position. Tony Gonzalez, Antonio Gates, Shannon Sharpe are all-time greats, but they couldn’t even shine Gronk’s shoes in his prime.

“I will continue to work my ass off for Cranston, and wherever I am in the state of Rhode Island I will not shut up!” said the now former Republican gubernatorial candidate Allan Fung, as he conceded the Rhode Island governor’s race to incumbent Democrat Gina Raimondo on Tuesday night. ​
