Quite often this is done simply based upon human emotions rather than analytic data and facts. They can also be derailed by way of pushing their luck much too often, in hopes of waiting long enough to begin raking in profit.

In front of the fourth largest crowd in the history of the Beeghly Center (6,311), Youngstown State couldnt get synchronized and fell to Cleveland State, 67-47.  The Vikings played great defense and the Penguins, as Coach Jerry Slocum said at the post-game press conference, self-imploded.  The Penguins struggled mightily from behind the arc in this one, going 4-24.

We got beat in every facet of this game tonight, said Slocum.  I dont think we handled the moment very well.  We played outside of our basketball IQ and they didnt play any different than they did the first time.

Injury prone in the past, this is a horse whos only had 16 career starts despite being a 10-year-old, and he can defy top weight off a mark of just 110 in a race which might not take too much winning, especially given his love of heavy ground.

If theyve got him back to somewhere near his best form he ought to go very close in this company.

Fearless NFL Postseason Predictions

Anyone who knows me would guess that once they opened this article, they would see a picture of Drew Brees and a prediction that the New Orleans Saints would be the NFL Champions this season.  It kills me to say that I am going against my heart and going with the weather.  Green Bay will beat New Orleans in the NFC Championship game, probably in a foot of snow.

To me, the NFC Championship game will be better than the Super Bowl if the Saints and Packers square off at Lambeau.  Some would argue that Aaron Rodgers is not a cold weather quarterback because he played at California.  C
