lallybelle — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 00:35:01 GMT

OK so I have to start by saying that I am a die hard Met fan (no laughing please) so this series is like a nighmare. LOL!
But since I CAN NOT have the Phillies win again. I'm gonna have to travel from Queens to the Bronx to support the Yankees.

Triple Crown Horse Racing - Also Rachel Alexandra

I don't follow horse racing much, but I sure do love to watch the Triple Crown races. I saw a video yesterday of a beautiful filly named Rachel Alexandra run in the Kentucky Oaks. The owners decided not to run her in the derby.. but I bet now they wish they did. SHe won by 20 lengths.

Woods made three birdies, two bogeys and 13 pars to shoot a 1-under 71, good for T-40 right now -- smack dab in the middle of the pack. His stats bear that result, too. He hit 7 of 14 fairways, 11 of 18 greens in regulation, was 0-for-2 on sand saves and needed 28 total putts. All in all, not a great day for Woods. Then again, he'll go back to his ...

Owens no longer a Cowboy The move to cut Owens comes a season after the team gave him a four-year, $34 million extension that included a $12 million bonus. When asked about now cutting the receiver, one Cowboys source said, "It was the right thing to do," alluding to the fact that the team is trying to create a more harmonious locker room.

I like the Indianapolis Colts, because I read Tony Dungy's autobiography. Heck, I had to find some team to follow.

However, I am pulling for the Green Bay Packers through the playoffs. I just think that Brett Farve seems like such a genuinely great guy.
