RIP Dan Wheldon

     Just 5 days ago, Dan Wheldon was alive and well, but then something terrible happened. Dan and 14 other drivers were involved in a horrific car crash last Sunday at the Las Vegas Motorsport speedway. If you have seen the video of the crash, his car is the one that goes airborne and basically turns into a ball of fire after hitting the wall. He was alive when the medics took him away, but soon later died. His cause of death was declared from head trauma. You might remember the Indy 500, yea he was the winner. My prayers and thoughts go out to his wife and two children. Nothing can describe it better than what one of the racers said, "everyone lost a piece of racing in them today."

2 weeks at least!

   Now that the NBAPA and Owners did not reach an agreement by Monday the first two weeks of the season are cancelled. According to NBA commissioner David Stern, The two parties are vary far away from each other. The great thing is that we won't have to wait until the lockout is done to see superstars like James, Wade, Melo, Amare, Rando, and may others play the game. This past weekend the superstars held a charity game in the FIU stadium (in Miami),during the time they spent together according to Amare, they discussed and decided that they will travel around the country and play a bunch of these charity games. If u happen to live in Europe, your in luck because many superstars are playing overseas and maybe be playing in a town near u! But on the other hand we want the NBA back on, and we are 103 days into this lockout, you have to wonder when will this end? According to Derek Fisher us as fans, "Must be patient." There maybe no season at all, and if there isn't i might go crazy literally!

Tigers take it!

    In today's highly anticipated game (1)LSU took on (17)UF . As soon as the game started is when the Gators  started losing, the second play of the game LSU QB Jarrett Lee heaved a pass down field and found Rueben Randle for the 46 yard score. At the end of the first it was 14-0 Tigers. The only time the Florida scored in the first half was off a field goal. The finals score was 41 to 11, It was as if LSU was playing little kids out there, It was sad to watch.  What really killed Florida was third downs they only converted on 2 of their 11 times, also the Gators had two turnovers both int's while LSU had none. LSU running back Spencer Ware had two of the teams five touchdowns, he also racked up 109 yard tremendous day for the Sophomore, who has scored half of his career Td's in this game. He has also triple the amount of Td's he had last year (1) . O and boy do i feel bad for the freshman Punter of LSU he had completely faked the defense out on a fake punt, and scored. How often do u hear of a punter scoring? Exactly, but then disaster when the refs called it back under the new rules the league has he some how was called for a penalty.  At the end of the day I dont think Florida should even be rated. At the end of the day I think that today really showed that Florida shouldn't even really be rated while LSU stays steady at number 1.
