TWO TEAMS MEET THIS WEEK. IS THERE A BIG GAME COMING?

The Arab Team:

Well, the Arab Summit takes place in the next few days and once again the Rumors consist of some level of compromise on the Israeli / Palestinian issue. Not the first time that story has been floated, but a great deal has changed in not just the region, but in the two Team’s Quarterbacks; the US and Russia. If the Man Crush between Trump and Putin is on ice, I don’t think it is, they just can’t be seen dating right now, then so much has changed that these meetings take on new meaning.

The Non-Arab Team:

Rouhani and the Tsar are having a two day sit down in Moscow. Unusual? Yes. Predictable? Yes. The Tsar has most certainly figured out the game plan of Team Arab on the topic of Russia and Iran. Tension between the Russians and the Iranians already exist over the topic of Syria and who will call the shots in the end. Driving a wedge between the Tsar and the Persians is the goal of not only Team Arab, but their Quarterback.

The pending Free Agent:

Turkey. The Tsar had his plan for pulling Turkey away from Team Arab and even Team Europe and as a matter of fact, Team Europe is doing an outstanding job of convincing the Turks to leave. So, the free agent is looking at options. Options based on what is good for the player, not any club the player may sign with.

The Super Bowl:

What’s the Super Bowl for these two teams? What have both teams been struggling to achieve in the playoffs? Yep. The Middle East Trophy! And like most high dollar teams, not all the players like each other. Not all the players respect each other and some just down right think they are better than the other members of the team.
 Predictions:
Team Arab has a true advantage. The Quarterback of the Non-Arab Team is really indifferent to what his team wants. Their Quarterback is absolutely in this for themselves and nothing else. Show the other Quarterback who is better, never mind what the teammates want. Selfishness runs on both sides of the field, but it’s more crippling for the Non-Arab Team.
The Non-Arab Team has one other true advantage. Everybody on their team fears the opponent.  Iranian players are the most hated in the sport when it comes to Team Arab. A common goal is to keep the Iranian players from looking good on the field and that is a strong goal of Team Arab.

 Watch for the Trick Plays:

Every team has them. Something happens during the game and the rest of the fans say, “wow”, but only if the play works! If the Free Agent was to show up squarely on the Non-Arab Team, that would be a trick play that made fans say “wow”! The good news for Team Arab is that most likely won’t happen because of another minor player, another lesser than Free Agent. The Kurds!
As for Team Arab’s trick play, well, they have a huge one they have been quietly working on. One they absolutely want none of their fans to know about. It’s so controversial, that even if it wins the game for them, the fans may not approve of how the winning score was made. If you want a hint, look for the Star of David on a Helmet hidden along the sidelines!

Pre-Game:

Speculation is the key to good pregame showmanship. That is taking place at the Arab Summit this week and it’s also taking place in Moscow. For all the showmanship the so called “experts” will give as they try and show the fans just how smart they are about the game, one simple fact remains. To most of the players in this game, it’s all about the Persian players! The Persian team has the best Quarterback in the league, but Team Arab has a new guy who is out to make a name for himself and he’s not afraid to call outrageous plays.  Let see what comes out of the Pre-Game meetings this week.


Oh ya…… the Fans! 

  Who are the Fans, you know the folks who pay the bills? Yep, they’re the ones with bombs, gas and concrete raining down on their heads. Imagine a Super Bowl where no one wanted to be in the stands.
