Melissa Benoist Supergirl First Female TV Superhero To Show Muscle
Melissa Benoist Supergirl First Female TV Superhero To Show Muscle
Melissa Benoist Supergirl First Female TV Superhero To Show Muscle December 14th 2015 at approximately 8:40 pm EST, Melissa Benoist as Supergirl became the first female TV superhero in pop culture history to show muscle - specifically biceps. In catching and lifting a giant portion of a destroyed building up, up and away from a group of people during her fight with Astrid, Supergirl / Melissa Benoist did something that Wonder Woman, The Bionic Woman, Helen Slater's Supergirl, and no other television Supergirl, including Jessica Jones and Agent Carter, have ever done. But beyond that scene, Melissa Benoist's workout routine had sculpted an obviously strong woman. Moreover, in the final first season episode, she gained the confidence she was building toward for the entire season. Supergirl is a path-breaking show in America, in that it also shows straight black men (Mechad Brooks as Jimmy Olson) in romantic relationships with white and Latina women, and also desired by them. Commonly, black men have been portrayed as thugs or gay or just without a love interest on American television and while black women with white men is common, black men with white women is rare; Supergirl breaks the mold. It shows black men for what we are as normal mainstream people in the USA. It is an image that was a long time coming. I think Supergril's success stems from the fact that it shows society as it really is. A great deal of thanks is due the cast and creators of Supergirl for this much needed gift. Stay tuned.

Odell Beckham 84 Yard TD Catch On Option Route #NYGvsMIA
Odell Beckham 84 Yard TD Catch On Option Route #NYGvsMIA
Odell Beckham 84 Yard TD Catch On Option Route Odell Beckham's 84 yard TD catch is based on an option route concept that was obvious, but not discussed. In many modern passing attacks, a receiver is given a choice or option route: in Beckham's case, he looked at the free safety and once that player moved forward, leaving the middle open, the receiver races by running a post pattern - which is what Beckham did. The result was the 84 yard touchdown catch. Giants 31, Dolphins 24 with 7 minutes left.

Serena Williams Sportsperson Of The Year 2015 Sports Illustrated (or what is left of it) has named Serena Williams "Sportsperson Of The Year" for 2015. The news came with some controversy because some believed the horse American Pharaoh should have got it. But the award is for a person and not a horse. Serena Williams is a lovely woman who has faced too much racist commentary from some very sick and largely anonymous sources. Those people will suffer continued mental anguish as more black women rise to high pop culture status. Meanwhile congrats to Serena Williams. Stay tuned.

Raiders Beat Broncos 15-12 Oakland Over Denver
Raiders Beat Broncos 15-12 Oakland Over Denver The Oakland Raiders beat The Denver Broncos 15 to 12 in a game that the Raiders should have lost but for Khalil Mack. The Raiders star linebacker got five sacks and tied a team record held by Howie Long for years. But the fact remains that Broncos QB Brock Osweiler was 33 of 51 for 308 yards - but when it mattered most the Raiders would not let them score. The Raiders Offense was terrible and Derek Carr seemed off with his passes at times and not due to scheme. But the Raiders Defense coached by Ken Norton Jr and with Khalil Mack made up for that. Stay tuned.

Patriots 27, Texans 6: New England Beats Houston On SNF Patriots 27, Texans 6 in a game Houston's poor offense lost for the team. Texans QB Bryan Hoyer was asked to run an offensive game plan that was as much a joke as anything else. It contained plays that are best described as inflexible. Moreover, the offense failed to be the equal of the Texans Defense, where 2014 First Round NFL Draft First Pick managed to collect two sacks - no doubt as best an answer he could manage to the Oakland Raiders Khalil Mack, who got five the same day yet was picked four spots lower. The Patriots QB Tom Brady was 22 of 30 for 222 yards and just another day at the offense. The Pats secured a spot in the playoffs. They are the defending World Champions.
