    Curtis Jones: The Passing Sensation of Detroit
    He is still being talked about today.

    In the heart of Detroit, a young basketball star named Curtis Jones made his mark as a standout player. Curtis earned a reputation as a remarkable point guard known for his incredible passing skills. Many fans and players believed that he could dribble the ball from one end of the court to the other in just three dribbles—a skill that amazed everyone who watched him play.

    It would be nice to see Curtis Jones play basketball if there are any films out there of his games. He often had games where he scored just 2 points but had a remarkable 25 assists.
    Curtis was 5’10’, and there is highlights of Curtis's high school career back in 1967 when he hit a game-winning shot over 6'9" Spencer Haywood—who would go on to become an NBA star—to clinch the city championship. The opposing team featured another future pro, Ralph Simpson, which made Curtis's victory even more impressive.

    Curtis Jones became a legend in Detroit, remembered not only for his talent but also for his ability to elevate his teammates and deliver in clutch moments. As fans look back on his high school days, many still say that he was the best passer they have ever seen.

    The Legendary Detroit Streetballer never played in the NBA. Curtis the Magician Jones was a Detroit Northwestern high school star. He passed away in 1999 at age 49.

    Hello, this is Gail Nobles from EPS. I have an old recording from Swellcast where I shared my thoughts on how I'd love to see Michael Jordan join the Big3 league. I received some feedback on the podcast—one listener mentioned they were unfamiliar with the Big3 and would like to check it out, while another expressed excitement about the possibility of Michael Jordan and other players joining the league. Unfortunately, the podcast was removed since the hosting company has gone out of business. Therefore, I've decided to revisit the topic and share a replay of the podcast. So here it is: Big3-Michael Jordan Idea.

    I Want To See Michael Jordan!

    The Big3 basketball league is another sport that has gained attention. It ought to be as big as the NBA with professional players playing half court. I’d like to see Michael Jordan come back to see how well he would do. It would certainly draw plenty of attention…..

    Hello, I'm Gail Nobles. Today's topic: Barry Sanders. A football legend on EPS.

    In the world of football, few names shine as brightly as Barry Sanders. The former running back, who played for the Detroit Lions in the NFL for ten spectacular seasons, is often celebrated as one of the greatest players of all time.

    Imagine watching a game where the crowd is roaring, and then suddenly, you see a flash of movement amidst a group of players. That flash is Barry Sanders, spinning and twisting through defenders like he’s dancing. You think he’s down, buried in a pile of players, but out he comes, dashing towards the end zone for a touchdown! It’s this incredible ability to evade tackles and change direction in an instant that made him a unique force on the field.

    Standing at just 5 feet 8 inches and weighing about 200 pounds, Sanders defied the odds. Despite being smaller than many of his opponents, he became known for his remarkable speed and agility. He led the NFL in rushing yards four times and scored a remarkable number of touchdowns during his career.

    Barry was drafted by the Detroit Lions in 1989 and made an immediate impact by winning the NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year award in his very first season. In 1991, he helped the Lions achieve their first postseason win in decades, solidifying his status as a key player. His impressive career peaked in 1997 when he rushed for over 2,000 yards in a single season and was co-awarded the MVP title, sharing the honor with quarterback Brett Favre.

    In a surprising turn of events, Sanders retired unexpectedly in 1999 at just 31 years old, leaving many fans in shock. He finished his career only 1,457 yards away from breaking the all-time rushing record set by Walter Payton. His number 20 jersey was retired by the Lions in 2004, a tribute to his immense talent and contributions to the game. Just months earlier, he was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame, further cementing his legacy.
    In addition to these accolades, Barry Sanders was recognized as the most elusive runner in NFL history by the NFL Network in 2007 and has been often mentioned as one of the greatest players who never made it to a Super Bowl.

    In summary, Barry Sanders is more than just a football player; he’s a phenomenon. His incredible skills on the field, along with his legacy in the sport, make him a true legend in the world of football.

  • Anthony Joshua Wins 12:22:25 2.19 PM

    Podcast Cover by: Gail Nobles

    Jake Paul beat Legendary Mike Tyson by unanimous decision back in November 2024, but then got absolutely dominated and knocked out by Anthony Joshua in the sixth round on December 19, 2025. Anthony Joshua, the heavyweight champion with all the muscles and skills, beats Jake Paul.

    Now, let’s take a moment to appreciate Mike Tyson. He’s a name that brings back memories of thunderous punches and an intimidating presence in the ring. When you think of Tyson, you think of a man who could take on giants. So when I hear that Jake Paul somehow beat him, I can’t help but wonder.

    I was glad to see Tyson back in the ring. The man is a legend, and legends shouldn’t lose to newcomers, no matter how much they can throw a punch.

    Anthony Joshua, on the other hand, is a perfect example of skill and athleticism in heavyweight boxing. With a professional record of 29 wins and 4 losses in 33 fights, he is known for his explosive power and technical prowess. Joshua has proven time and again that he is a force to be reckoned with in the ring, or should I say not to be reckoned with? His brutal knockout of Jake Paul not only underscores his enduring status as a former two-time unified heavyweight champion but also highlights the vast difference between battle-tested fighters and viral sensations.

    In a sport where legacy is built on blood, sweat, and years of training, Joshua's knockdown of Paul is a critical reminder that true greatness requires more than just viral moments—it requires the heart of a champion.

    So here we are, left scratching our heads at this tangled web of fights and names. It’s a strange world we live in when every punch from a social media star Jake Paul can shake up the boxing world. But that’s boxing for you. It’s unpredictable and, sometimes, downright bizarre.
