"College Football's four team playoff"


HOLLYWOOD, Fla. -- "Football Bowl Subdivision conference commissioners, Notre Dame athletic director Jack Swarbrick and other college football officials Thursday agreed to eliminate eight-team and 16-team playoff proposals to determine the sport's future national champions, but settled on very little else during weeklong meetings at a beachside resort here.
After meetings Thursday, BCS spokesman Bill Hancock said the sport's 11 FBS conference commissioners would take "two to seven" playoff proposals -- each involving four teams -- back to their respective university presidents, athletic directors and coaches to discuss for the next five to seven weeks."... BCS officials and conference commissioners are scheduled to meet in Chicago again in June. "Any proposed changes wouldn't go into effect until the 2014 season. The current BCS system, in which the top two teams in the final BCS standings play in a national championship game at the site of one of the current BCS bowls (Fiesta, Orange, Rose and Sugar), will remain in place the next two seasons" .  by ESPN's Mark Schlabach : http://espn.go.com/college-football/story/_/id/7858795/bcs-says-bids-include-4-team-playoffs-only

" #2012shit Pt. 2 "




Speaking of The NHL; great matchups !!! The New York Rangers take on The Washington Capitals. New York was the nation's first capital back in the days of the 13 colonies; and when we went to 50 states, D.C. became the nation's capital. Also in the east; we have The Philadelphia Flyers facing the New Jersey Devils. And the distance between Philly & The Prudential Center in New Jersey is about 1hr and 40mins. (Talk about a rivalry) Now we dip out west; as the Los Angeles Kings take on the St. Louis Blues; two very historic franchises... As we wrap-up the west; we end with two more American teams; as the Phoenix Cyotes take on the Nashville Pretadors. (Awesome) But there's something even more awesome about these playoffs....(Yeah) The Great One: Wayne Gretzky, played for The Los Angeles Kings (1988 - 1995) The St. Louis Blues (1995 - 1996) & The New York Rangers (1997 - 1999), and also coached The Phoenix Cyotes from (2005 - 2009 )

" #2012shit "


Obama's picture with a student goes viral and very popular: Madalyn Starkey of Colorado University, uploaded the pic to her twitter, and it took off from there! Madalyn teased one of her twitter followers by saying "bet you wish you had taken me to prom now, huh?". More on this story via Yahoo!News. On a more serious but heroic note; Ted Leonsis (Washington Capitals Owner) took to his blog to defend his starting Right Winger Joel Ward against racist tweets by angry Bruins fans saying : "Shame on these folks who decided to take to their keyboards and show their ignorance and their racism and hate.
What these people have said and done is unforgivable. I hope they are now publicly identified and pay a huge price for their beliefs. There should be zero tolerance for this kind of hate mongering. Their messages should now stay glued into the algorithms to place a forever warning and a mark upon these people and their actions. They shouldn’t be able to escape their keystrokes.
We will as an organization support Joel Ward. He has been a great teammate and a great citizen. He is now the star of stars in our city for his heroics last night. He is a friend and a fantastic player – who delivered – as advertised for us and our fans in the playoffs."

"Nike Air Force 1 YOTD"

"Air Jordan 1 x Nike SB - Royal Blue / Black via n-sb"

This Air Jordan 1 x Nike SB - Royal Blue / Black preview, is via nsb

"Initially the top guy knew nothing about it, but the person directly below him had heard about it but didn’t know much other than it was in the rumor stage. Well the shoe is now together (as of this morning) and they’ve seen it, the top guy in footwear for Jordan is new to the group and he actually approached SB about the shoe and they put it all together. It was not approved by MJ, nor does it have the AF1 wings, the new footwear boss got his hand slapped over it as well. no details other than it doesn’t have the AF1 wings but you can draw your own conclusions from there as to what the shoe will look like. This is about as off the record as you can get but that’s right from top of Jordan they may do a product unveil likely yesterday not sure if any photos will show up but most of the Jordan guys saw the shoe as of 1/27."

"And they say our economy's bad"







Not really; well it all depends on what you do and how you do it. For example; Ricky Huddleston, 2000 in McAlester, Oklahoma ,was a Rodeo Cowboy who made $103,000. In 2012 he's making $45,000 as a Road Maintenance Supervisor. “You have to do well to get paid. You have to win,” he says. “I broke my elbow and that slowed me down, so I gradually quit.” Bruce Shcactler; a Commercial Fisherman, makes $120,000, when in 2003 he was only making $40,000. Back then he was only a Fisherman, (guess he's legit now lol). And Malia Delapenia, a Hawaiian native also a Belly Dancer :-), was making $10,000 in 2006. Now she's making $65,000 a year.
