Danica Patrick Should Earn A Spot Not Be Given One

After I read about Danica Patrick and how she got her spot in the Daytona 500 I find myself not really happy the way it went down. I mean yes they bought there spot and that is legal under Nascar rules. I just do not think it is fair to other drivers trying to make the field. Yes, people will say they could have bought the spot, but most do not have the backing or that kind of money. If they want to get into the Daytona 500 they must race in. This is what Danica Patrick should have been forced to do as well. I am against people buying spots into this race.

Nascar has gotten away from a level playing field and that is why one-car teams have very little chance for success these days. Rickey Rudd found out how tough it was even with a good sponsor. Earning your spot in the big show is how it should be done. Dancia Patrick may have qualified anyways, but I still would have liked to see her earn it. Buying spots because you have deep pockets in my opinion is just wrong in my opinion.

Aaron Rodgers Calls Out His NFC Pro Bowl team!

I knew I liked Aaron Rodgers for many reasons, but calling out his NFC Pro Bowl was a great move in my opinion. As fans we all know when it comes to the AFC-NFC Pro Bowl rarely do players run or play all-out for the fans. Even though fans pay top dollars for tickets all season long players look at this game as a game they do not have to play hard in. I give Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers credit for calling out his team. Most players would just let it go, but at least he addressed it. This was a long time coming and he should be applauded for it.

The AFC routed the NFC 59-41 in a game that drew boos at Aloha Stadium in Honolulu and for good reason. Fans as a whole are getting tired of players not go all out. The problem is there really is no easy solution to the problem. Players will not play all out in these kinds of games, as it always has been that way and it won't change anytime soon. I guess it's just something we will have to continue to deal with as fans, and it looks like players too. At least Aaron Rodgers stood up and said something, as he could have swept it under the rug, but he didn't.

NBA Schedule Feb 1, 2012

Tonight should find some interesting games for NBA fans to watch. I really like the Chicago and Philadelphia match-up. The Bulls are very good and the 76ers are a team that have been playing very well this season. Indiana and Minnesota is another match-up to keep your eyes on. I really like what the Pacers are doing this season and Minnesota is another team that have won some games that I thought they would lose. Some interesting games for all NBA fans to watch tonight.

Will Dwight Howard Help A Team Win A Championship This Year?

Being an Orlando Magic fan I've had a floor seat to watch Dwight Howard through the years and I must say many things come to mind. Dwight wants to win an NBA Championship, and wants out of Orlando to do it. Now I will admit I will agree with Dwight he should be shipped out of Orlando and at times has not got the support of his teammates like he should. Yes, he has a right to rip his teammates privately, but never in a public forum.

Now no matter where Dwight Howard gets traded I highly doubt he will win an NBA Championship anytime soon. Unless he goes to Chicago or Miami I just do not see that in his future right now. Dwight needs to work on his foul shooting as in a half court game that will be his downfall. He also must understand this is a team game and needs to play that way. Yes, Dwight Howard has tons of talent, but talent will only take you so far in the NBA.

The teams that win NBA Championships understand it still is a team game and you must play as a team. Someone will be trading for Dwight Howard, but until he learns to play with others in a team setting he is doomed to repeat his failures in Orlando. It will be interesting to see where he lands and how much he can help someone. I do not think he will help any team win a championship this year though.

UnderTaker Is Back And Triple HHH Does Not Seem Happy!

I really thought Undertaker would return at the Royal Rumble, but he has made back to Raw and Triple HHH did not seem thrilled with it. In the clip below you can see Triple HHH reaction to The Deadman reappearing once again. I think that we will see The Undertaker in Wrestlemania, but against who is the question. Many different names have been floating around, but the one thing we do know The Undertaker is back and that cannot be good for the WWE Universe.

What Do The Colts Do With Peyton Manning?

The Indianapolis Colts have a tough decision on their shoulders these days. Do they keep Peyton Manning or save money and cut him loose? A roster bonus is due Peyton Manning soon, so they will make that decision soon. Manning has indicated he will be ready to play this coming season, but the Colts also plan on drafting Andrew Luck out of Stanford as well. This means decision time will be tough for the Irsay family and the Colts. Peyton has been like a son to them and cutting him loose can be a double edged sword for this organization.

The decision will basically come down to one thing for the Colts do they want to start a new era or are they happy with the old one. When they fired their coach they could be leaning towards a new era which would mean Andrew Luck. If the Colts go that direction they will have part of their fan base that will not be very happy. The only way they would not would be if Luck brought them a Super Bowl. In my opinion, I think they should keep Peyton Manning, but only time will tell how this will work out. No matter what, it is a tough decision for the Irsay's to have to make.
