This week in sports

Tuesday night November 4t, 2008 we saw history being made. Did you think America would elect an African American to the White House in your lifetime? I don’t care how you voted or what political persuasion you are, Tuesday night was a historical point in our nations history. Yes I did have Goosebumps and a tear in my eye. I believe that, as President-Elect Obama said, “Yes we can” make America great again. For you that did not vote for him, all I have to say is, just give him a chance. As senator McCain said, “It’s time for the county to stand united”.

Over last weekend I did watch the 20/20 cricket match for 20 million dollars. The Stanford Superstars beat the England National Team by 10 wickets. It was as one sided as it sounds. In one sense it was good for the US Audience because the Superstars hit some very big shots that were very exciting. In other senses I think it was not good because it was very one sided and we (the America people) what to see close games. The America people also like to see national teams go head to head not just one-time teams like the Stanford Superstars. I hope ESPN will do more cricket matches, I enjoyed it and the more its on the more people will tune in.

This weekend’s big event is the finals 5 rounds of the PBR World Finals from Las Vegas. Thursday thru Saturday it’s on Versus Network at 9 P.M nightly. NBC has the final 2 rounds on Sunday from 4 to 6 P.M. Should be fun, we saw some great rides last weekend, should be more of the same this weekend.

Before the PBR Sunday on NBC, the network has its highlight package for the PARALYMPICS from China. Show is 2:30 to 4 P.M. Don’t miss it.


Talk to you all next week. Hope to have a report on all this and more. Enjoy an other crazy football weekend.


Good night and good luck.
