What everyone thought would be a clinching of the Championship for Jimmie Johnson turned south. Johnson was saying prior to the race that their car was really good and fast and that they were not going to hold back, well as luck would have it, the #48 team struggled with an ill handling car all day and just could not get it done. Jack Roush has to be buying some new hats especially when his teams
In 2003, the Atlanta Falcons ended the Packers' home winning streak in the postseason. Green Bay had won every home playoff game since the NFL initiated a postseason in 1933. Their last 11 wins had come at the snowy fortress that is Lambeau Field, and the Falcons -- who were a dome team and were up against one of the best cold weather QB's ever in Brett Favre -- were big underdogs to prevail. But

Blue Streak is an energy drink I had heard about, but knew little about. It’s labeled as an invigorating energy drink, which I think is stupid since every energy drink is known to invigorate.

This was a similar title to what I put up last week, the only difference is the word "loss" (last week it was "win"). The portfolio gained over $2,300 today, which more than erased yesterday's loss, but was not enough to put it in the green for the week.Both RDN and VNDA were up, VNDA more so than RDN.

It was a brutal streak that not only had losses, but large losses. Thankfully, I got a breather from it today. As usual though, the gain was dwarfed by the losses. Today's gain was a little over $2,700. Most of that was from RDN, which finally rebounded. The catalyst for the rebound was a PR from the company reassuring investors that the company was solvent, and that they felt the stock was underv

It takes a lot to be a winner. And it’s not easy! Sometimes you win and still you are a loser, while at other times you might have lost that important match of your life but still you land up with so many accolades and appreciation in your pocket that you are the real winner in the long run. That’s because the fame associated with winning is short lived. We have the feeling of “Is that all there is?”(Bill Watterson once wrote these words in his comic strip ‘Calvin and Hobbes’) after the glory of winning has faded away.We often complain and grumble, when we have put in all the efforts and they don’t bear fruits in the end. There might have been other reasons for not winning the competition but what feedback you get is the greatest reward for you at that time. Even a few words

"I need to get off to a better start than I did last year. I wasn't too happy about my April [in 2007].""I want production," he said. "I want to drive balls into the gaps, score runs and drive some runs in. You can have the home runs. Let me drive in some runs and set up the guys behind me.""Our offense absolutely clicks when we keep the line moving," he said, meaning when the Mets are able to get a number of hitters on base.

16 Reasons Why the Pirates Streak Won't End in 2008I originally wrote this piece for Deadspin's 2008 Baseball Preview SeriesI sat in this spot last year and labored through not one, not two, but 79 reasons why it's hard to be a Pirate fan. The research alone for that article made me question why I still bother with this organization. Of course, that in itself was the answer: they're a gold mine of comedic material, whether they try or not.So what did the 2007 Pirates do to prove me wrong? For starters, they went 68-94, extending their streak to an amazing 15 consecutive losing seasons. Their big bat, outfielder Jason Bay, who never met a called strike three that he didn't like, watched his offensive output fall quicker than Roger Clemens' credibility.
