the mad sports man

end of the month tomorrow already? wtf can't believe the end of august is tomorrow already. i cant believe it went by already. with the kids going back to school wednesday and the labor day football coming up next monday, the nfl starting, the nascar race for the chase begins and hockey hitting training camps. september is shaping up to ge a good one already. this month, i was happy to get internet back, baseball, nfl preseason (yawn), nascar racing, the fringe here, heritage days here, and i cant remember what else.

feels kinda like fall it sure feels like fall. i think its the wind thats helping. plus its 15c outside. its interesting because yesterday it was 29c yesterday. then there was a thunderstorm last night. i saw it go by at work. there was some hail too. gonna be fall like for awhile from what i heard on the news. i'll take it.

a clean sweep at bristol unbelievable. capping off with the irwin tools 500 tonight, kyle busch swept bristol this weekend. he on the truck race and the nationwide race this weekend as well. congrats to him meanwhile juan montoya took out jimmie johnson causing him to finish 35th in the race and is now 9th in the points. with the top 12 making it and jimmie sliding, im getting worried. hopefully he gets back on the schnide in atlanta on sept. 5. thats when the next race is

gotta love it when a plan comes together worked well getting the homestead cleaned up and lawn mowed. and apples on the ground raked up. plus watched the end of season 3 of hell's kitchen on dvd, it made for a good day. an off day tomorrow as well - just gotta slack off then.

carfax 400 kevin harvick got himself into the chase with a win in michigan today. i didnt see the race. jimmie johnson finished 12th and is still fifth in the points. with three races to the chase its going to be a great run to there. next race is saturday night at bristol.

heck of a game at rogers centre - for a second day in a row pitcher brandon morrow of the toronto blue jays struck out 17 batters and took a no hitter to the last out of the 9th inning in a 1-0 win over the tampa bay rays. he ended up getting the last out to pitch a complete game one hitter. not long after the rays got one of their own a few days ago they almost got victimized. the rays were no hit twice as well.

heck of a game at rogers centre - even for a rookie this was quite a baseball game between the toronto blue jays and tampa bay rays. the jays won 17-11 in which they hit 8 home runs in the game - 2 by J.P Arencibia. the first one he hit was in his first at bat and the first pitch he faced. overall he had 4 hits (with the 2 homers). he was the first player since 1900 to hit 2 homers and four hits, the 5th player to hit two homers in his first game and 107th player to hit a homer in his first major league at bat. he had 3 runs batted in also. great game for sure

ahhh the lazy, hazy summer saturday i love it when i have my saturday off. with me working at westmount mall, its me and another worker that alternate saturdays. today im off and coworker works. next saturday i work and coworker is off. its a small crew atwestmount (its a small mall). its been good there. meanwhile today, the laundry is getting done and yesterday i got other things done (i was off yesterday too). a good two days.

im back nearly four weeks without internet. i think it ran from me. im not sure what happened, but i thing the first culprit was a thunderstorm messed with it. in between then and now, spain won the world cup, the national league won the all star game, lots of baseball and football. the nfl began training camps already. back to some fun now.
