Madison Bumgarner, Taylor Hall, the 8th pick in the April NFL Draft, and hooper Alexandra Zeyala are just a few of the names you need to know in the Arizona sports scene for 2020. Zeyala passed the 1,000 point mark last month at Millennium high school. She’s already signed to play at North Carolina. Is Hall going to be a one year rental or a longterm member of the Arizona Coyotes? Can Mad Bum lead the Diamondbacks rotation to a September playoff run? The Cardinals should look at WR with the 8th pick. Alabama’s Jerry Judy or CeeDee Lamb from Oklahoma would work just fine…

Bobby Hurley needs to see a new building at sooner than later..

Phoenix Rising FC will continue to be content with their current space as a USL franchise. Major League Soccer added St. Louis, Sacramento and Charlotte in 2019 without any comment from Rising ownership. Good for the Rising owners for sticking together with their game plan. At some point, an indoor facility plan must be unveiled. I’m hopeful that will happen here in 2020…
