Michigan vs. Indiana

0 comments
Michigan VS Indiana – Michigan Football 2010 Team 42-35 Win – The 2010 Michigan football schedule is available, and it looks like it is going to be an exciting seasons for the Wolverines. They have been able to put together a schedule that is desired by practically every NCAA teams. They have one of the largest stadiums in football, and have been able to create their schedule so that all of their challenging games will mostly be played at home.

So far the team is 4-0 but has yet to play any real competitive teams. The only tough team that they have faced so far is Note Dame who is hardly considered to be a powerhouse in this day and age anymore. They also beat UMass, Bowling Green, and Connecticut.


Today, Michigan will take on the 3-0 Indiana team. After the game today, they will not have another tough game from the big ten until they go on to face Michigan State. Their biggest test could come when they play Penn State toward the end of the season.
It will be interesting to see how the team looks after they have played in a few more competitive games. So far, they appear to be good but have not faced any solid competition that would force them to stretch the field. In their final game of the season they will be playing against Ohio State, who is currently ranked number 2 in the BCS standings. If they could pull out a win in that final game (assuming that Ohio State is still ranked well), they could potentially enter a high level bowl game.

Once more Michigan’s sophomore quarterback Denard Robinson was able to give his team the victory with a tossed a 42-yard pass -Michigan State got a 42-35 victory against Indiana.

Eduardo Saverin and Mark Zuckerberg

0 comments
After the release of ‘The Social Network’ movie, the world has started eyeing Mark Zuckerberg as the real perpetrator, who betrayed his friends for his personal interests. Thanks to the lawsuits and the controversial plot of the film, Zuckerberg is now all zipped up and has nothing much to say these days.
 Eduardo-Saverin While, the CEO was busy building Facebook, he needed monetary aid. The only person to lend him $18,000 was Eduardo Saverin, who later joined is as a business partner. Another con man, Sean Parker / Napster CEO steps in and befriends Zuckerberg. Getting close to the Facebook origins, you’ll find out that Eduardo was turning out to be a liability for Zuckerberg.
The innocent looking, lisper hatched plans of toppling Eduardo Saverin off the business, with Parker. In the earlier days of Facebook, the site was only open to members of the Harvard University. The then founders had made a brilliant plan of taking over the world.

One Nation Rally

0 comments
One Nation Rally – Every action has a reaction to a movement, and the reaction to the ‘Tea Party’ has shown it’s head in the form of the ‘One Nation’ movement. Held on Saturday at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, the NAACP President Ben Jealous spoke about the ‘One Nation’ movement in regards to it’s relationship to the tea party, saying we’re not “the alternative to the Tea Party, we’re the antidote to the Tea Party.”


Jealous spoke about including the ‘Tea Party’ members to the rally, despite their differing view points and possible disagreements. Jealous doesn’t agree with some of the racist of extremist views of some of it’s members, and takes issue with them. Jealous claims that the ‘One Nation’ movement would prefer to see jobs for 99% of Americans rather than tax cuts for 1% of Americans. He wants the ‘One Nation’ movement to bring about a change in America, to give it’s people a better education, and more opportunities for economic growth.

There were slogans flying all over the place, from the normal to the fiery. Those on show contained the slogans: “The Left is What’s Right,” “Stop Racism Now,” We March for Hope Not Hate,” “Proud to be a Democrat,” “Stand with Obama,” “Silence GOP Lies,”"No Cuts to Social Security” and “Axis of Ignorance – Tea Party, Republicans, Fox News.”

Rick Sanchez Fired

0 comments
Rick Sanchez Fired – Rick Sanchez CNN Twitter Account Not Updated  – Rich Sanchez has been fired from CNN after he made a number of inappropriate comments during a recent radio show appearance. He was appearing on his radio talk show that is called “Rick’s List.” While on the program he called “The Daily Show’s” Jon Stewart a “bigot” and took shots at a number of other political analysts and news anchors.

Almost immediately after the comments took place, MSNBC analysts took to Twitter where he said that he expected that Sanchez would be fired for making the comments. CNN didn’t want to blow the incident out of proportion, but did decide to relieve Rick of his duties at the station.

They wished him well in their goodbye statement and thanked him for his loyal service to the company. This was not the first time that Sanchez had made brash comments in a public forum and had been reprimanded for it. Once he even referred to President Barack Obama as “cotton-picking.”

CNN has not named a replacement for Sanchez, who quickly retracted his statement and corrected himself, instead calling Stewart “prejudiced.” He should have known better, really. After the previous problems that he has had with CNN and some of the comments that he has made on his program, he had to have known that he was walking on thin ice. It will be interesting to see where Sanchez goes next. FOX News would seemingly make a good home for the right winged political analysts, but there have been no reports of interest from FOX.

BYU TV 2010

0 comments
Players who play for the big universities expect to have games telecast almost weekly. Those playing at schools outside of the Division  I rarely get a chance to show their skills to the world. However, the players at BYU will be strutting their stuff for a national TV audience tonight. The news of the BYU TV game spread across campus like a live wire.

ESPN will air the game and Cody Hoffman will get his chance to show off on national television. Hoffman was raised in a small California coastal town and was redshirted as a freshman at BYU. The wide receiver will be on the field tonight and on ESPN when they meet Utah State. When Utah State hosts the Cougars tonight, the fans at home will be excited to see the BYU TV broadcast on ESPN.

The news of the big event hitting the airwaves prompted both of Salt Lake City’s daily newspapers, the Deseret News and the Salt Lake Tribune, to seek out Hoffman for an interview. His hometown of Crescent City, California have been pining over their would-be superstar and this appearance on ESPN should garner a lot of attention from that area. Hoffman plans to approach the game as he would any other but admits that the BYU TV news has certainly been overwhelming.

Ernest Borgnine

0 comments
Much to the glee of late nite TV fans, two of Hollywood’s most talented film actors appeared on SNL in yet another episode of “What’s Up With That?” Morgan Freeman and Ernest Borgnine subjected themselves to Keenan Thompson’s buffoonery, all for the sake of promoting the October 15th release of their new film Red. Looking at the trailers and reviews of the film though, the spy spoof looks worth the price – of admission and promotion.
What the heck kind of movie has a case like Reds? Bruce Willis, Helen Mirren, John Malkovich, Mary-Louise Parker, Richard Dreyfus, and the aforementioned Borgnine-Freeman duo? Well, an action packed and extremely whacky one in this case. A somewhat aged bunch of retired CIA operatives gone ballistic makes for a decent backdrop – add special effects, and familiar faces – presto! That’s entertainment.
If you amble over to the Red Facebook pages, you can get more info or play the Red Challenge game – snatch up some movie stills like the one below – or view other trailers like the video from Youtube at the bottom. All the hype, the stars, the guns and explosions tough, cannot compare really to the one exclusive thing Red has – 93 year old Ernest Borgnine.
The movie Red
Malkovich, Freeman, and Willis
Not listed in the major credits, just seening the legendary Hollywood and TV icon should be enough to inspire movie goers. Borgnine’s Wikipedia explains a little of why. 1955 to 2009, Ernest has pretty much done it all – check it out.
We leave you with one of the trailers, and Everything PR News’ recommendation on Red – a must see actually – even if for just the star power.

Michael Oher and Tom Zbikowski

0 comments
Michael Oher and teammate Tom Zbikowski were both fined $5,000 for incidents last week, with Oher claiming he was coming to the defense of teammate Todd Heap on the play that cost him the money.

Oher said he was stepping in to defend Heap, who was driven off the line of scrimmage against the Cleveland Browns last weekend even though the play in question has been blown dead due to a false start whistle. Oher jumped into the fray and earned the penalty for his efforts, though he made it clear he would do it all again given the chance.

“That’s my teammate. You got to have your teammate’s back,” Oher said.

Oher, of course, obtained a new level of fame following the move “The Blind Side,” which chronicled his assimilation into a white family as he went through high school and headed to college to play football. Oher comes off as a gentle giant in the film, though one that is intensely loyal, a reputation he certainly upheld in Sunday’s situation. He simply stepped in to come to the aid of a fallen teammate, which, given his background, is probably the only thing he cared about at the time.

Zenyatta win the $250,000

0 comments
Zenyatta improved to 19-0 in her stellar career, using her usual come-from-behind move to overtake front-running Switch in the stretch and win the $250,000 Lady’s Secret Stakes on Saturday at Hollywood Park.

The 6-year-old mare prevailed by a half-length, putting a scare into her connections and much of the crowd before rallying late under Hall of Fame jockey Mike Smith.

“She seems to know where the wire is at and she likes to make it a little dramatic,” he said. “It’s just incredible.”

Trainer John Shirreffs pounded his rolled-up racing program against his chest after Zenyatta sailed across the finish line of the 1 1-16-mile race, which she won for the third straight year.

“She’s a heart-stopper in so many ways,” he said, smiling.

Zenyatta‘s exercise rider Steve Willard held his right hand over his heart, a relieved smile on his face.

“I’m sweating so much. Oh my God! It’s just fabulous,” said Dottie Ingordo Shirreffs, racing manager for owners Jerry and Ann Moss, and Shirreffs’ wife.

It was Zenyatta‘s final prep before she heads to Churchill Downs next month to take on the boys again in the $5 million Breeders’ Cup Classic, which she won last year.
