The EJ Experience

Welcome to the first installment of Unique Unis. This is where I, Erik Johnsen, review some of the more obscure uniforms that have ever been put out and worn. For the premiere of this series, we're going to go back to the year 1977. The Apple Computer was released to the public, The Eagles released "Hotel California", and  Star Wars was put out in theaters and later becomes the highest grossing film at the time. And the San Francisco Giants were as mediocre as mediocre can be. They were not the worst team in the league, by any means. The problem was that the Giants were stuck in the middle of the Juan Marichal led club and the Will Clark era that started the 1980s. Alas, the Giants were struggling to compete with the National League powerhouses such as the Los Angeles Dodgers, Cincinnati Reds, and Philadelphia Phillies. Led by the returning Willie McCovey, Bill Madlock and their manager, Joe Altobelli, the Giants trudged along to a 75-87 record. Now about those jers...

Hey guys! This is not going to be a long piece, but as you all know, sports have gone on a hiatus. How long that hiatus will last, we do not know. So, I've got some ideas on what to write about after the NFL Draft is all said and done. I have a couple of ideas that I'm going to roll with for the next little while. Take a listen to some of these potential EJ Experience ideas that will be coming soon Top 10 lists - always a hit. Everybody loves countdowns and Top 10s, so why not bring them here? Little warning that my Top 10s are different then most others. Mine will most likely be in no particular order. Should not make them any less enjoyable. Might be sports, might be movies, might be TV shows, might be favorite flavors of Pop Tarts, you never know! Unique Unis - focusing on sports uniform combinations that were worn very briefly and explain my thoughts on them and why they did not last. These are going to be shorter, briefer pieces that I will try to focus on getting...

I'm going to start off this mock draft differently than others: I hope everyone reading this is staying safe indoors. If we want summer back, the best we can do is stay inside. Give it some time, and we will all get through this together. Think High School Musical. We're all in this together once we know that we are, we're all stars, and we see that. The NFL Draft is just around the corner, though. That's always a plus. Although we are not going to get to see the prospects boat onto the stage in the Bellagio fountains, we will still get to see people's lives get changed forever. With that out of the way, here's my annual NFL Mock Draft. As per usual, this is without potential trades that may happen between now and draft day. Let's jump head first into this year's pool of prospects, shall we? 1. Cincinnati Bengals: QB Joe Burrow (LSU) If you have ever seen Draft Day where Sonny Weaver just writes "Bo Callahan" on the wall, that is what I...
