Are you one of those parent’s walking the sidelines trying to capture an image of your son’s football game? Or, maybe your sibling is playing ball. Canon is sponsoring a photo contest for amateur photographers who enjoy shooting football games.
Growing up a Viking fan, I wasn’t sure who to cheer for during last night’s Monday night football game between and Packers and Vikings. Check out this video from the Associated Press web site of Packer fans smashing a car to “honor” Vikings quarterback and former cheddarhead Brett Favre.
I saw this photo on the Associated Press wire tonight, and I just had to put it up on the blog. Now it’s obvious this gigantic Packers player didn’t ride this tiny bike all the way to practice from his home.
I’m wondering how quickly the number 34 Red Sox jerseys will depreciate in price over the next 24 hours, as news of Big Papi allegedly taking steroids in 2003, surfaces to Fenway fans.
It was Christmas last night at Fenway Park in Boston. Or, was that Earth Day, with a St. Patrick’s Day twist? All Brad Penny needed was a little more red on his uniform, and a silver beird to pass as Santa Claus on the mound!
Opening Day for the Red Sox in Boston is looking grim, as 100% chance of rain is predicted for Massachusetts. Todays heavy rains may turn Fenway Park into Fenway pond. Check the National Weather Service radar for updates throughout the day.
