New York Jets Offseason Staff Shakeup
The recipient of a bachelor's degree in accounting from SUNY University at Buffalo, Darren Grunberg draws on more than 20 years of trading experience in his role as equity trader with T3 Trading Group. When he isn't working, Darren Grunberg enjoys following his favorite National Football League (NFL) team, the New York Jets.
The Jets missed the playoffs for the seventh consecutive season in 2017. Personnel changes needed to be made in the offseason, primarily in regard to the team's offense, which ranked 28th in yards and 24th in points scored. The first change was made in mid-January, when the team announced offensive coordinator John Morton would not return in 2018. It was reported that Morton and head coach Todd Bowles had some philosophical differences in coaching, and Morton admitted to throwing in the towel during the Jets' Week 14 loss to the Denver Broncos. The Jets have yet to name a replacement for Morton, but it has been speculated that quarterbacks coach Jeremy Bates may be promoted to fill the role.
Further changes came on Jan. 24, 2018, as the Jets relieved offensive line coach Steve Marshall of his duties. A former assistant offensive line coach with the Green Bay Packers, Marshall joined the Jets in 2015 and spent three seasons with the team. The Jets' offensive line did the team no favors, giving up 47 quarterback sacks, tied for seventh-most in the NFL.

Yankees Pitcher Finishes Third in AL Cy Young Voting
The recipient of a bachelor's in accounting from SUNY University of Buffalo, Darren Grunberg is an equity trader who has worked for multiple high-profile firms throughout his career, including Carlin Financial Group and T3 Trading Group. Beyond his professional pursuits, Darren Grunberg is a passionate fan of Major League Baseball's (MLB) New York Yankees.
The Yankees returned to the playoffs in 2017 after a one-year absence. A major contributor to the team's success was Luis Severino, who was recently named the second runner-up for the American League (AL) Cy Young Award. In the season prior, Severino posted a disastrous 0-8 win-loss record and a bloated 8.50 earned run average (ERA) through 11 starts. He later settled into a role in the bullpen and was expected by most to stay there in 2017. Instead, the Yankees made him the fifth starter and he pitched well above anyone's expectation.
The 23 year old posted a 14-6 record to go along with a 2.98 ERA in 31 starts. He also recorded a whopping 230 strikeouts and only 51 walks in 193 and one-third innings on his way to being named to the AL All-Star team. The AL Cy Young went to Corey Kluber of the Cleveland Indians, while Chris Sale of the Boston Red Sox finished second in the voting.

Tennis Scoring - Deuce
Darren Grunberg serves as an equity trader with T3 Trading Group, where he specializes in fixed income methods and stocks. In his leisure time, Darren Grunberg enjoys playing a number of sports, including tennis.
During a game of tennis, the player who scores four points (15, 30, 40, game point) wins the game outright. There is a special scoring system, however, that comes into play when two players are tied at a score of 40-all. This is called deuce, and it follows its own set of rules to determine who wins the game.
When the score is tied at deuce, a player must score two consecutive points to win the game. Whoever scores the first point is said to have “advantage” until he either scores another point, or loses a point to bring the score back to deuce. Play continues at deuce for as long as it takes for a player to score two points in a row.
