The sports world is as crazy as always. Many things have happened this year, from Kobe Bryant announcing his retirement, to the Denver Broncos getting a Super Bowl ring. NFL season has officially came to an end, and if you are a fan like me, you are already waiting for the next season to come. It should be here in no time. Besides football, basketball is still going. The Golden State Warriors became the first team ever to reach 50 wins in such a short time. With that being said, they still have a chance to beat the Chicago Bulls record of 76-10. The warriors currently stand at 50-5, which is extremely impressive and still remains the best record in the NBA as of right now, and it does not look like any team will be surpassing them. Sports are always exciting, and have always had their surprises, so who knows who is going to come out on top in the NBA.
NFL- Super Bowl 50 took place on February 7 at Levi’s Stadium in California. The Carolina Panthers were number 1 in the NFC South and had a record of 15-1. The Denver Broncos were number 1 in the AFC West and had a record of 12-4. Almost all the predictions put the Carolina Panthers on top so the Broncos were certainly the underdogs in this game. The game kicked off at 5:30 and the Broncos took an early lead against the Panthers. The Broncos managed to hold onto to that lead throughout the entire game. The final score was 24-10. This is the Denver Broncos third Super Bowl win in franchise history. Bronco’s linebacker Von Miller was named this year’s Super Bowl 50 MVP. It is still up in the air if Peyton Manning, the Broncos quarterback, will retire this year but with two Super Bowl rings now, it is looking more and more likely. We’ll find out soon enough what he decides. Good luck to all the teams next season!
