Sports Injuries Can Sideline Your Training
More than any other single event (except maybe for the grousing
spouse), sports injuries account for more triathletes having to
pull out of their Triathlon plans. Because triathletes are
basically in training year round, a sports injury can really put
a dent in their Triathlon training.
Learn how to treat your sports injuries
For any training injury, follow the RICE method to treat it.

Sports betting is not a game!
Well, to many people sports betting is first class excitement as
well as great entertainment, but you should always keep in mind
that the betting industry is not here to entertain you - the
bookmakers want your money and punters (gamblers) want to beat
the bookies. That is the simple truth of betting; still you can
have great fun betting if you control your stakes in a sensible
manor and of course win more than you lose! Both tasks are
easier said than done, but ...

Meeting Mickey Mantle
Meeting Mickey Mantle would be a dream comes true. A dream
realized for Dan on his 38th birthday, when his wife honored him
with a week long stay at the Yankee Fantasy Camp in Fort
Lauderdale, Florida.
Dan played with some of the Yankee legends: Bobby Murcer, Mickey
Rivers, Ron Guidry, Moose Skowron and Catfish Hunter. The games
were great and being on the same field with some of the players
he had watched on TV or at Yankee Stadium was mesmerizing.
But what made the week ...

1st Point - When victims attack!
Let me see if I understand this. The accuser in Kobe Bryant's
alleged rape assault, who was allegedly so traumatized by the
event that she could have sex again within 48 hours, also feels
that a cap of 2.5 million dollars is not sufficient enough to
ease her pain and suffering. So, instead of continuing a
criminal trial, that would see both her attacker behind bars and
her bank account secured for years, her, and her defense team,
decide to withdraw the criminal ...

Water is crucial to our survival. Because our body is made up of
60% water, it is important to be aware of our body's need for
hydration. Our body needs water for the following functions:
* It acts as solvents for nutrients. * It aids in digestion and
absorption. * It transports materials throughout the body. * It
eliminates toxins and waste products. * It regulates body
temperature. * It is used for energy production.

Baseball season is finally over. Would anyone really complain if
they cut about 12 games off the season (is 150 not enough?). Now
at least we wont have to hear about 'the curse', now we just
have to take care of that goat and all will be well.
Is there really any doubt that Carlos Beltran is going to wind
up a Yankee? He has gone from being one of the most
underappreciated players in the game with the Royals, to having
one of the greatest postseason performances. ...

After enduring that disgusting final weekend of the NFL season,
I have come to the conclusion that a new tie-breaker is needed.
How a team performs during the final weekend should be the first
tie-breaker, with all the current tie-breakers falling in line
after that. A team that won its final game would hold the first
tie-breaker advantage against a team they're tied with that lost
its final game. If they both lost, both won, or both tied their
final game, then the current tie-breakers would ...
