How about a little sports?

Well…I was going to come back and add to the one from earlier today but thought I’d do one on sports instead…there have been lots of games/races to comment on so I think I’ll start with the games. First, Manchester United finally looked a little like themselves today with a 3-0 win over Newcastle United…it’s about time they did something with the addition of Van Persie and it looks like RVP and Rooney are starting to mesh a little…it might make it fun to watch over the winter. Then, there was the Tigers game today…so very exciting when they went into the bottom of the ninth tied at 4-4 with Oakland and proceeded to load the bases with one out…and the very little used Don Kelley, who was hitting .186, came up and hit a sac fly to the outfield to win it 5-4…pretty cool. The last thing was the Talladega race that was on this aft….and the 20 car wreck on the last lap that had Tony Stewart upside down and bouncing on the top of a few other cars as the wreck unfolded. One of the coolest things about the wreck was the Tony didn’t make any excuses for his mistake…taking responsibility with no weasel words or qualifying…I wonder why no one else does that? Oh, well…just asking…
