SO Many Sports so little time

It's that time of year again.  It's the time of year when the NHL and NBA are finishing their prospective seasons.  Baseball and Car racing have just begun.  Football is coming to the end for the most part, and the NFL has had their draft in preparation for next season.  While I love sports it is often very hard to talk about all of them at the same time.  The Battle in football between Manchester United and Manchester City, which seems that it may end on goals rather than the actual abilities of either time.  I in a way do not understand why they do not have a playoff system like all most every other sport.  We get to the end of the season and the two team would most likely be in a tie which is then broken by goals.  Why not let the 2 teams meet one last time to decide who should be the true champions?  It would in my opinion be a bit more logical in my eyes and in most fans eyes also to end that way.  There would be no what ifs. no questions.  It would come down to a long hard battle on the pitch between 2 teams who according to win loss percentage are equal the only thing seperating the 2 being goals.  Would it not make more sense to have a Super Bowl or World Series of sorts.  Just my opinion but I do believe it is a valid argument.


This weekend in NASCAR seemed to give us a bit of excitement IndyCar was idle and there wasn’t much happening locally, NASCAR had its opportunity shine. Luckily for us, things got a bit nutty down south and NASCAR had one of its most entertaining weekends in years.

Dodge – For the first time in 36 years, Dodge visited victory lane in NASCAR’s top series at Talladega.

Brad Keselowski and the “blue deuce” won Sunday’s Aaron’s 499 in convincing fashion by muscling away from Kyle Busch on the final lap.

Dodge needed this one.

After all, the manufacturer’s top team, Penske Racing (the one Keselowski drives for), will be racing Ford’s next season. Despite the fact that the company has already unveiled its 2013 NASCAR Charger, I’m still not 100 percent convinced that Dodge will even be in the sport next year. Dodge needs to be involved with NASCAR. Dodge does have six championships to its name you know?

Danica – Somebody has watched the movie Days of Thunder one too many times…

If you don’t know what happened, allow me to enlighten you. On the last lap of the race, Hornish cut a tire, couldn’t control his car and drifted up the track at the finish line, cutting Patrick off in the process. Her temper got the best of her (what a shocker right?) and Danica proceeded to blatantly turn Hornish into the wall after taking the checkered flag.

If you want to go punch the guy in the pits because you’re irritated, I’m cool with that. Boys (and girls) have at it right? But in a sport that constantly struggles with the fact that it’s so expensive to compete in, tearing up race cars for no reason at all is just plain stupid.

Didn’t NASCAR suspend Kyle Busch for something similar last year? There are glaring differences between the two situations and Busch has a reputation for being, um, rowdy, but still. What will NASCAR do to its marketing gem Danica because of this stunt?

I’ve got my popcorn ready. Today is decision day in NASCAR!

Well that's about it right now.  Be back with some more later!!!!
