Mark Buehrle Perfect Game

July 24, 2009

Yes, Mark Buehrle pitched a perfect game. He was saved by Dewayne Wise’s spectacular catch in the ninth inning to perserve his perfect game. So yes, Mark Buehrle pitched a perfect game against the Rays and the final score was 5-0. It was awesome.

Ben Roethlisberger

July 22, 2009

*Sigh* Either way this turns out, its a sad day. I used to like Big Ben. This court case sounds eerily similar to Kobe Bryant a few years back. According to reports, he asked her to come fix the sound system in his room. When they were alone, she claims he sexually assaulted her. I don’t have much to say but this is a sad story whether it is true or false. Appears to be a lot of info breaking here, here, and here.

I Love the Heisman Trophy Too

I Love the Heisman Trophy Too

I Love sports. From baseball to basketball and over to Europe for soccer, I love sports. From batting averages to last second sacks and ineligible receivers, I love sports. How could you not? I live this stuff everyday and just wanted to point out how much sports impact our lives. There’s always a major game going on somewhere in the world.

Badwater Ultramarathon

July 14, 2009

badwater-ultramarathon

I guess today is just one of those days when extreme sports is all I hear about. The second installment today is about the Badwater Ultramarathon. According to their official website, the event is “[r]ecognized globally as “the world’s toughest foot race,” this legendary event pits up to 90 of the world’s toughest athletes – runners, triathletes, adventure racers, and mountaineers – against one another and the elements. Covering 135 miles (217km) non-stop from Death Valley to Mt. Whitney, CA in temperatures up to 130F (55c), it is the most demanding and extreme running race offered anywhere on the planet.”

What a sick race!! Good luck to everyone who is involved in such a feat.

Ooops, I almost forgot about shameless self promotion. If you care anything about sports, be sure to look at getting some trophies for your sports league whether it is basketball, baseball, football, or 130+ mile marathons.
