Hello everyone! I hope all of you had a great week this week. There was a lot of newsworthy events, especially what happened today (even though it's not sports related). I'll share more information as you read along. Here we go!
MLB
After the Yankees concluded their series in Cleveland, the Yankees returned home and hosted the Toronto Blue Jays in a 3 game set. The Yankees lost the 1st game due to blown save both in regulation and in extra innings, won the 2nd game, and lost the Wednesday matinee game. For the Mets, they traveled to Philadelphia and faced the Phillies in a 3 game set where they came from behind win on Tuesday, dominated on Wednesday, but failed to sweep on Thursday.
This weekend, the Yankees will host the Baltimore Orioles in a 3 game set, while the Mets will be in Marlins Park to face the Miami Marlins.
NFL
It's official, NFL Preseason is over. And that means the New York Giants is 2-2, while the Jets are 0-4 in the preseason. The Giants faced the New England Patriots on Wednesday night at home where it was a low scoring affair. You could say it was like "watching paint dry".
The following night, the Jets were in Philadelphia facing the Eagles in what turned out to be a blowout loss. The only good news was that the Jets scored a TD for the 1st time this preseason. However, it was all downhill from here.
Starting next week, the Giants will open their season against the Dallas Cowboys on September 5th. This will make the 1st NFL game to be scheduled on a Wednesday.
WWE
This past Monday on Raw wasn't really a good episode, with the exception of a few highlights.
I don't know what's going on, but Raw needs to do something since next Monday will be the last Monday Night Raw where there's no competition. Once the 2012 NFL Season starts, WWE will have to create a better Raw and not lose viewers to Monday Night Football. Outside of Sports If you all heard what happened this morning, a shooting happened at a Pathmark store in Old Bridge, NJ around the late night/early morning hours. And this Pathmark just happens to be not too far from my house. I do remember when I woke up this morning I saw helicopters flying, and I didn't know what happened until I read what happened on the news. Here are more details about this:

You definitely heard it from the video. The gunman killed 2 people, and shot himself. Since the video was taken early in the morning, updated details have not been given in the video. For more details, check your local news stations about this. I have also posted a link giving the updated info: http://www.nbcnewyork.com/news/local/Ex-Marine-Shoots-Coworkers-Old-Bridge-Pathmark-168153356.html
My thoughts on this are "Why are people being so violent nowadays?" and "What is with these shootings?". Something needs to be done regarding gun control. I give my sympathies to the friends and families of the victims.
That's all I'm going to say for now. Have a good Labor Day weekend!
