“It gets to the point where, as a man, you don't want to see your mom struggle anymore,” said Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo.
This, as a statement, is inspiring.
A green single-wide trailer, in a small, rural part of North Carolina, and a single mother working tirelessly, barely making enough to get by. Those are the conditions Adebayo came from. Now, he cements his place in the Heat franchise and NBA history with the performance of a lifetime.
“Knowing what he comes from now adds a new level of inspiration to this game,” said OH varsity basketball player Jake Voelker.
The Bears/Packers rivalry reignited this season after a dramatic Jan. 10 wild-card playoff game, ending with a surprise fourth quarter comeback for the Bears to win 31-27.
For many fans, the comeback win felt like a turning point in one of the NFL’s most historic rivalries.
“I have been a Bears fan for 17 years,” said OH senior Alec Taylor. “The rivalry means a lot to me, but sadly, the Packers have whopped us for my entire life.”
Fantasy football has become one of the most popular ways for fans to stay engaged with the NFL.
Each week, millions of fans set up lineups, make trades, and hope their players deliver wins to help their teams succeed. For many, it’s more than just a game; it’s a strategic plan.
“Currently, my team is 9-4, not the best record, but still second in my league, and hopefully my players can clutch up in the playoffs,” said OH senior Hassan Lawal.
Many Oswego locals are deeply engaged in basketball and say the NBA play-in tournament is one of the best times of the session because it leads into the playoffs and one game can change a team's whole season.
“I feel like the play-in made the NBA more entertaining. It gave teams an opportunity to have a bad record and still be able to come back,” said OH student Milo Cudia.
