One Week Until The Super Bowl

The Super Bowl has the potential to be a dady with the two best teams in the NFL meeting. The Saints and the Colts. Manning Vs Brees. I am ready for this game! Also The Who performing at half time. A great football game with a great band playing at halftime. I can't wait.

I think I pointed it out in this blog I have been writing on the Tim Tebow Fan page site for a while. I did write an article about his Super Bowl Commercial. The latest article I wrote about tIm Tebow is about his performance at the Senior Bowl

Well thats the blog for today, good bye January welcome the new month.

Haiti

I've been writing a bit about Haiti lately due to the big earthquake which shook the island nation. I have a couple of articles out on organizations which are helping with the relief efforts. I urge you to check them out. My publisher is donating money for the articles and page views to the Haiti Relief efforts.

The first one was abiut Google, President's and Direct Relief. You can view the article here
The second one focused on Christian groups who were helping. This article can be viewed here.

We all know Haiti needs help. Heck, they probably could have used help before the earthquake. They are our neighbors (or at least mine). It is encouraging to see past Presidents both democrats and republicans come together for Haiti. It is nice to see all these christian groups from different denominations come together for Haiti. It shows we can overcome our differences and make things better.

New Baseball Blog

I know Spring Training is still a ways off. However, I just wanted to announce my new blog. The blog is focused on the Baltimore Orioles. Right now it is all about the Hot Stove and what moves the Orioles have made this off season. If your interested please feel free to check it out here. So far I have a blog about Miguel Tejada rejoining the Baltimore Orioles, an article on Gonzalez being the new closer for the O's, and a blog about the Orioles getting Millwood in a trade. I have been blogging on there fairly regularly so there should be more stuff on there soon.

Work, skiing, and other writing activities have kept me away from this blog. However, rest assure there are more updates to come on this blog.

More football...

I haven't post in here for a few days; I have been pretty busy writing as I have picked up a few more opportunities...

A lot about football as of late:

In the NFL I had my wildcard predictions. I went 2 for 4 on those.

In college, I had my final NCAA rankings posted here. My rankings gave more love to Boise State and there were a few more surprises.

Also I started writing for a Tim Tebow site. I will probably write a few more articles there. I joined the site at a bad time after the college football season has ended. Oh, well I have a couple of articles out there/

The latest one is about his Super Bowl Commercial.

I also wrote one on his record breaking performance at the Sugar Bowl.

I'm open for sugestions on new Tim Tebow articles if there are any Gator Fans or Tim Tebow fans out there.

I've been writing other things as well and I will blog about them later.

First Beau Torbert Update of 2010

Some how with the big snow, the cold, the holidays I missed this..



Beau Torbert signed to play with the Sioux Falls Canaries for 2010. I know Beau fans would have liked to have seen him get another chance at "organized" baseball. Canaries fans should be glad he is coming back. Hopefully, he will be able to stay healthier in 2010. He was able to do a lot in 65 games, however if he stays healthy he could be in the running for MVP honors again.

Hagerstown Cold Weather Shelter

I wrote about the problem of homelessness in a November blog. Today I published an article about an organization doing something about it in Hagerstown, Maryland. The word needs to get out about these kind of organizations.

You can read the article here.

I think I left these facts out of the article so I will through them in here.

The shelter provides the homeless an address to use and a place to get messages and phone calls. This is a big deal because it allows potential employers a place to reach them, or family, or somebody who could potentially help them.

It gives them a place to do their laundry.

It gives them a place to shower.

The cold weather shelter is more than a warm meal or a cot to sleep in. If you want to learn more read my article and follow the links. If you want to do more volunteer at a shelter, I am sure you can find one that can use your help.
