The winner of 10 races last season and his second NASCAR championship is held back in his team.This year, Johnson is trying to win the third title. If he does, he will become the second racer in the history, who reached this success. He can try it in Sunday's Daytona 500 pursuit, which will open the season."I fell very good about where we are, and I know what we've done in the offseason has only made us stronger," Johnson said. "But I still think we have a lot of room for improvement."Johnson's Hendrick Motorsports now includes Dale Earnhardt Jr.,who is supposed to be a strong competition for Johnson.Earnhardt won last week's Budweiser Shootout in Hendrick Motorspots debut, and two qualifying races Thursday. That made him as the favorite to win the Daytona 500.Tony Stewart, the searcher for his first Daytona 500 win, has had tried to reach the first place in nine previous NASCAR's races. He and Busch and Hamlin, racer for the same team found out, that winning will depend on teamwork, and he doesn't like it."There's safety in numbers- and that's disappointing part," said Stewart. "That's what this race has come down to, not great individual performances, but sheer numbers of strength. I think it's harder than ever to win because you've got rely on everyone else."He thinks, that the only think he can count on, is that his teammates will work with him and he hates the feeling, that he will have to rely on someone else for his success."I feel we finally have a shot to beat that lineup of four guys that i had to go up against the other night,"I feel we have three good cars in our camp, they've got four good cars on their side. That's about as even as it gets."The Daytona 500 is 200-lap, 500 mile NASCAR Sprint Cup Series. Races are made annually at the Daytone International Speedway in Daytona Beach in Florida.

John Daly is a man who enjoys life and always sees the full half of the glass. For the PGA Championship he prepared by spending time in the casino and when he talked about the fact that some players came earlier to train, he revealed that he would rather stay with his family or do other things like ridding a golf cart. However, at a certain point he was the clubhouse leader by shooting a surprising 3-under 67 at the season's final major. He surprised before when in 1991 despite the lack of practice he won PGA at Crooked Stick after.

Phil Rizzuto is a famous baseball player, first of the shortstops who entered in the Hall of Fame. At the age of 89 years, he died in his sleep at a nursing home in West Orange, N.J., suffering of pneumonia. He loved baseball and when we could not play anymore, he turned to a career as a broadcaster of the games, reaching a whole new level of celebrity. He played for Yankees since 1941 until retirement, with a break during Second World War when he was enrolled in the Navy service. The nickname "The Scooter" was given to him because he was a leadoff man with quick feet who won 11 pennants and nine World Series between 1941 and 1956 and played 13 seasons alongside Mickey Mantle and Joe DiMaggio who said that he held the team together. In 21 consecutive World Series games, Rizzuto played errorless ball. Derek Jeter, Yankees' shortstop, underlined that "The Scooter" proved a person should not be judged by the physical stature, but by his will. As announcer he made a difference, being more like a storyteller known for his famous line 'Holy cow!'. He used to acknowledge birthdays and anniversaries, read letters from fans, etc. There is even a Phil Rizzuto Day at the Yankee Stadium honoring his achievements and commitment to the team. The persuasive speech of Ted Williams made him enter in the Hall of Fame (Cooperstown, 1994). After his death, his No. 10 was retired by and the club will wear his number on its left sleeves for the rest of the season. At Yankee Stadium the flags were lowered to half-staff and also the team planned a moment of silence and a video tribute. God has taken a star, but his legend will live on. Let's keep a moment of silence!

Proving once more that he is the absolute golf champion Tiger Woods had a record-breaking victory Sunday in the Accenture Match Play Championship, his fifth straight tournament and 15th World Golf Championship, holding all three world titles for the first time. He breaks not only records, but also women's heart after seeing him in Gillette ad. Woods overcome Stewart Cink with 14 birdies in 29 holes for an 8-and-7 victory, the largest margin in the final in the 10-year history of this tournament. From the first week of September he had only successes just like the one mentioned above. His long life of winning includes 63 times on the PGA Tour, moving past Arnold Palmer into fourth place on the career list, one victory behind Ben Hogan, and each year getting closer to the record 82 tournaments won by Sam Snead ,four straight times on the PGA Tour, he has set the tournament record for margin of victory in his last three wins and it was his fifth straight victory worldwide, including his stunning comeback in Dubai three weeks ago. Last year Woods' tour winning streak was at seven when Nick O'Hern beat him in the third round of the Match Play and gave him a run for his money. 2008 is the 10th year of this series, which was designed to bring together the best players in the world. Tiger Woods manages to overcome 15-of-26 in official WGC events, three of those in the Match Play Championship and only Darren Clarke (Match Play, Bridgestone) is the only other player with multiple WGC victories can represent a challenge. He was won 15 times in WGC events, as many victories as Fred Couples has in his entire PGA Tour career. The world's No. 1 player made a career on golf events alone, for example on Sunday he earned $1.35 million Sunday, over $19.8 million in these elite events, while Cink earned $800,000 and will look back on a week in which he beat British Open champion Padraig Harrington and U.S. Open champion Angel Cabrera. That is roughly 25 percent of Woods' career PGA Tour earnings, and more than Tom Lehman earned in more than 430 tour starts. Woods already was 4 up after eight holes in the morning when he mentioned that a rules official had just warned them that they were close to being put on the clock for slow play. He is indeed a born champion with no real rival on the golf field. Bravo to him!

For the third straight year Tiger Woods won the Bridgestone Invitational and is now ready to go to the PGA Championship in a very good shape.Woods started the final round one shot behind Rory Sabbatini on a very rainy Sunday.Tiger Woods picked up five shots in a five-hole stretch on the front nine.The game had a funny- for some people- tragic for others event. Woods hit a 58-year-old woman in the arm while slicing to approach around the trees and dropping from a branch.Sabbatini showed a very nervous behavior and asked a police man to remove a spectator after the man in question shouted to him: "Hey Rory, still think Tiger is beatable?" Rory Sabbatini stopped and hugged his children after seeing them standing by the 10th tee. His disappointment was huge and it is perfectly normal...but Tiger Woods is still Tiger Woods and maybe he should have psychologically prepared better for this defeat.After the game, Sabbatini was asked if he plans on tempering his comments in the future. His answer was: "Why?" "I hope I inspire him and play well enough that I can give him a good challenge."Woods left the game $1.35 million richer, after his 58th career victory.

The tennis world says goodbye to Martina Hingis, a former tennis player and World No. 1, known as the "Swiss Miss", for a second time. However, the circumstances are different this time from the first time; in 2002 she retired due to a series of foot and leg injuries, while now she was forced to do it because of the doping allegations. Her return to the circuit full-time in 2006 was rather successful: two Grand Slam quarterfinals, two smaller tournaments victories and rank No 7. This season was indeed more difficult, she was ranked No 19 and the day of the drug exam she just lost against Laura Granville of the United States in the third round at Wimbledon. Was that enough to take drugs, especially cocaine? She vowed at the press conference held Thursday that she had never taken drugs. The allegations are so monstrous that she can not continue playing and decided to talk to the press. Was that a strategy move in order to gain sympathy? Sweden-based International Doping Tests & Management- an independent agency handles the doping tests for WTA, according to WTA Tour chief executive Larry Scott. He added that a lot of people feel sadness, but they have to keep in mind that everyone has the presumption of innocence until the end of the process. Usually there is a first urine sample that is tested and if it gets positive than athletes are being told- Mario Widmer, Hingis' manager, said they announced her in mid-September- then there is a second sample and Hingis received the results two weeks after the first result. She had hip and back injuries when she did the tests, but she did not want to miss the tournament. Nevertheless, the painkillers she took then might have been responsible for the results. Hingis hired an attorney who said that the doping officials mishandled the process and they have no evidences that the urine sample with cocaine came from her. Furthermore, the case will continue, even if she walked away from tennis. Doping expert Dr. Gary Wadler said they can detect cocaine up to five days after its use. As a former U.S. Open's head doctor, he stated that although cocaine is not a performance-enhancing drug, but theoretically could help overcoming fatigue, reaction time and so on after two or three hours it is consumed. Martina says she doesn't need the effects of the cocaine like euphoria, because her only one performance enhancer is love of the game. She added that someone under the effects of drugs could not play top class tennis. Her career of five Grand Slam singles titles and a rise to the top of the rankings at 16, the youngest No. 1 ever ended in not so favorable circumstances. She has to face the embarrassment of a cocaine accusation and stand up for her innocence. Also, this season was not so fortunate for her either. Was she or her trainer that stupid to jeopardize their achievements by using cocaine just before the drug tests? The truth is about to be revealed!don't go away!

Chris Cantell Discusses Sports: Cause of death unveiled by Claudia Sonea
U.S. men's marathon Olympic trials were marked by the tragic death of the elite distance runner Ryan Shay who collapsed on Saturday in the Central Park. He was 28 years old and despite the fact that he was diagnosed at the age of 14 with an enlarged heart, the doctors kept validating him for contests, because it is not something unusual among elite athletes. Usually the hard training can lead to the enlargement of the heart due to the bigger quantity of blood pumped by it. Also this disease is commonly for drinkers, smokers and overweighed people and can increase the endurance. About five and half miles in the race, Ryan collapsed and at the city hospital he was declared death. Dr. Douglas Zipes, a spokesman for the American College of Cardiology said that the enlarged heart is hard to be distinguished from deadly hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. He added that sometimes the athletes stop from any activity and if it's not a deadly disease their heart will shrink during the resting time. Ryan together with other athletes passed a medical exam in Flagstaff, Ariz., where he trained, last spring, according to his father. In his statement to Associated Press, Joey Shay, the athlete father, revealed that doctors could not adequate test his son when he was a teenager because his heart rate was too low. Zipes confronts athletes with the fact that they do not confess their possible health problems. Ryan's death could have been caused exactly by what he thought it was helping him in being more resistant. The doctors represented by Ellen Borakove, spokeswoman for the city medical examiner's office syas they want to do a detailed autopsy before giving a sentence, until then the cause is still to be unveiled. He was a beloved son and an athlete who stirred admiration and envy. May his soul rest in peace and God have mercy on him and that all his sins to be forgiven.

Chris Cantell Discusses Sports: Ferrari sinks McLaren boat by Claudia Sonea
A new record in the history of World Motor Sport; unfortunately it is not about a time record, but fine record. The World Motor Sport Council fined the Formula One team McLaren with 100 million dollars, 40 times bigger than the previous F1 record- $2.5 million. The accusation was of stealing leaked secret data from its main rival Ferrari, after in July a 780-page technical dossier on Ferrari cars was found at the home of McLaren's chief designer, Mike Coughlan. Ferrari mechanic Nigel Stepney, who is supposed to have supplied the documents, was fired. According to Dennis, head of the famous corporation, this won't affect McLaren because they are a strong financial company and that the fine is effectively halved due to the fact that they don't have to forfeit any revenue it's earned this season. Also, probably it won't cost them the Formula One drivers' title; McLaren drivers Lewis Hamilton and Fernando Alonso escaped punishment Thursday. It is surprising why they would risk so much when they have the best drivers, how well Dennis has stated. Hamilton and Fernando Alonso are well ahead with 92 points and 89 of Ferrari's Kimi Raikkonen(74) and Felipe Massa(69) with four races left. The sport's governing body (FIA) called a new hearing of the council last week because they found new evidences against McLaren since July and it referred mainly to email traffic between our drivers, and in one instance, Mike Coughlan. Anyway the punishment won't affect them that bad, besides McLaren CEO Martin Whitmarsh will take over the control despite the scandal, according to Dennis. However, Ferrari succeeded to sink McLaren boat at least from the point of view of the fans, the public. Stay connected to see what's happening next.

Chris Cantell Discusses Sports: Ronaldo came, scored and Manchester United won by Nina Gotzmannova
The Manchester United opener in Champions League has brought some surprises on the green field. Ronaldo visited his former club Sporting Lisbon, scored and won. And Wayne Rooney has returned after almost six weeks of recovering his foot injury.For the first time since 2003 22-years old Cristiano Ronaldo has laid his feet on his former gridiron on Jose Alvalade Stadium in Lisbon. Right here, when Sporting beat United four years ago, the manager of United decided to have him in his team. And Ronaldo didn't fail. The black haired winger scored the single goal of the match and doubtless he decided the game, which ended 0-1 for United, but also encouraged his mates. On Wednesday he moved United one step forward to their bid to win Champions League. They had it won only twice in the history, in 1968 and 1999. This may be their symbolic third victory, even though the only major honor that United has not won is UEFA Cup, the second most international competition for European footballers. His performance wasn't surprise; Ronaldo is appreciated and talented young player. The return of Rooney didn't much help him, because Rooney was still a little bit drowsy after his long pause. But Sporting was lot more active in the match than United was. According to Sporting coach Paulo Bento Sporting was controlling the first half and had the best chances. Only the luck that United scored first gave them a chance to win.However, the winner is Manchester United. The football team can dedicate another victory for themselves. They are the first English club who beat Sporting on home soil.

Tour de France champion Landis found guilty in doping case by Nina Gotzmannova
The doping case of US cyclist Floyd Landis is finally over, but with the result "guilty". Two of three arbitrators confirmed the results of a test that showed testosterone usage. But the test was not done properly and Landis, 2006 Tour de France champion, can appeal to Court of Arbitration for Sport. It would be his last chance. According to the results, he lost his Tour title and has a two-year ban of cycling. If he wouldn't appeal, or if he would lose the appeal, he will be the first person in 105-years to lose the title because of doping. Then the title will belong to Oscar Pereiro, who finished second.Landis's last chance to win may be the fact that the testosterone-to-epitestosterone (T-E) test was not done properly. Only the carbon-isotope ratio analysis (IRMS), more difficult test, was positive and the arbitrators said the result of this test is sufficient for Landis guilt. Landis objects to the result, reasoning if the laboratory has messed the easier T-E test, there is no safety the IRMS is correct.Landis invested approximately $2 million to this case. He still states he is innocent and he didn't take anything illegal. He claims cheating is against everything he stands for. However, one of the witnesses, former Tour de France winner Greg LeMond testified under the oath that in a phone call Landis admitted the usage of doping. But Floyd Landis still has friends, who support him. Lance Armstrong, who won Tour de France seven times, shows his feeling for Landis's innocence. Armstrong himself was investigated for doping using in 2005, but nothing was proven.

Whoever wins will go out from the pool A and meet Australia in the quarter final. If they fail, they will remain in the World Cup records as the first champions that not only did not managed to keep the title, but also did not get in the last eight.

Also he confessed to be very impressed by Tonga's line of defense that they studied carefully. It's a team that made a lot of trouble to all the others, even South Africa won with 30 to 25. England coach Brian Ashton revealed that today's match will be more tensed and difficult. He said that he hopes the referees will handle the main issues and that outside-half Jonny Wilkinson knows to take care of his own there on the field. All the players agreed they like when fans make a lot of noise at match and despite that at the last match fans where more or less on their side. So give them a chance and you might be surprised how well they can prove to be. Good luck fellows!

Germany-Brazil ended 2-0 in the women's World Cup final by Corina Ciubotaru
Germany's women soccer team won the World Cup this year, thus becoming the first team to ever hold the title for two years in a row. Not only that, but they managed to end an entire tournament without receiving any goals and that is something really amazing. In the final game against Brazil, the German girls showed how tactics and good defense can guarantee success against flamboyancy and energy. Brazilian star Marta could not score in goalie Angerer's net even during the penalty shot everyone was afraid of, and the game ended 2-0 on Sunday, with goals from captain Birgit Prinz in the 52nd minute and midfielder Simone Laudehr in the 86th. The Germans also broke the Chinese record for the most time without conceding a goal, with 619 minutes since Sweden last managed to score against them 4 years ago.After the game, each team left with hopes: Germany wants to host next year's Cup as a celebration of their amazing tradition and results while Brazil would like to get more sponsors and facilities for the women's soccer teams. Male players are widely known and renowned for their spontaneity and skill; their team is one of the best in the world, but when the women play, people don't pay as much attention. This is what Marta, the top scorer of the tour, and the other girls want to change, and they apparently have the full support of Brazil's President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, who has watched the final on Sunday at 9 a.m.

Ireland waiting for its last chance by Nina Gotzmannova
Miracles sometimes happen. And the Irish rugby players in the 2007 World Rugby Cup certain prey for one. Five days before their final match with Argentina they admitted, they don't have more excuses for their poor performance and they face an early flight home. Since now Ireland has won two matches with Namibia (32 & 17) and Georgia (14 & 10). This victory is questionable, because both teams are in the bottom of the chart and they didn't win any single match. It would be really shame for Ireland to be beaten by such lamer ducks, so the victory doesn't really count. In the third match of Pool D France beat Ireland high 25 & 3. They are waiting now for the final match, but Argentina is in the top of the chart with 14 points and 14 tries. Ireland has only 9 tries and needs at least 4more. According to Gordon D'Arcy, an inside centre, Irish team has set a special strategy how to beat Argentina. They need to be a little bit sneaky and tire the tough physical defense of South American team. Then they can take the scoring opportunities and avoid another misfire and failure.Anyway, the Irish players must think about their fans and the viewers first. Rugby World Cup is the fourth largest international sporting event in the world. In 1987 the first world cup watched only 300 million of people; in 2003 the final match between Australia and England has an audience of 3.5 billion. It was broadcasted to 205 countries, so the Irish success or failure will be carefully observed by the whole world.

All Blacks lost the World Cup and disappointed a nation by Corina Ciubotaru
As shocking as it might sound, the All Blacks, New Zealand's rugby team, lost to France in the World Cup quarter final in Cardiff. This time, the Haka wasn't enough to scare the opponents and the game ended 20-18, sending the Kiwis home in disgrace. The battle still continues for France who is now set to play against arch enemies England who beat Australia 12-10.Rugby is New Zealand's national sport and the only international sport where they really shine. Between their black equipment and fearsome pre-game ritual, the players are some of the best-trained in the world and are expected to win every game, including the all-important ones in the World Cup. They make great money out of this too, but still seem unable to fulfill their countrymen's hopes. $50 million have been invested in the campaign for this year's Cup, including $7500 per player for every week they are assembled as a team, and eventually, winning the event turned into a national obsession. The pressure on both players and coach was enormous but the disappointment means Coach Graham Henry has got to go. He and his helpers Steve Hansen and Wayne Smith are said to leave the All Blacks after having trained them since 2004, most likely in favor of Robbie Deans, who currently coaches the Crusaders. The new coach's name will most likely be known by Christmas; his mission will not be an easy one, as he will be in charge of both rehabilitating New Zealand in the world of rugby and winning the World Cup after more than 20 years.

New surprises on the tennis court, where former champion Roger Federer had lost for the fist time in four and a half years consecutive matches against Fernando Gonzalez from Chile. After entering the match with a 15-0 record in round-robin play at the season-ending tournament, he had a 4-6, 7-6 (1), 7-5 decision Monday. Still he is keeping his hopes up and says that there is no need to worry, because he will prove to the other players they are wrong about him. Last time when Federer lost consecutive matches was in 2003 when he fell in the third round at Hamburg, then in the first round at the French Open. He is 26 years old, has 12 Grand Slams and hopes to beat Pete Sampras' record of 14 Grand Slam titles soon. His optimism hasn't perished despite the fact that he had some unpleasant few weeks due to the fact that he won three Grand Slam titles and extended his record run with the No. 1 ranking to a fourth year. On Monday it seemed that he will repeat his performance from Australian Open final in January when he beat Gonzalez in straight sets. Still, in the second-set tiebreaker Gonzalez stunned by bolting to a 6-0 lead and then he continued a strategy of breaking points- for the first time in consecutive games in the third set. No. 5 Andy Roddick in the other Red Group match succeeded to defeat No. 5 Nikolay Davydenko with 6-3, 4-6, 6-2. After being tormented by injuries that kept him out of competitions in Madrid and Paris, Roddick will lead the United States against Russia in the Davis Cup final at the end of the month. He states he is healthier and that he is working his leg muscles and his volleys in order to make them sharper. He seemed untouchable in the first match and broke Davydenko to pull ahead 4-3 in the second. Jimmy Connors his regular coach is not in Shanghai, but Davis Cup Coach Patrick McEnroe is around. Master Cup started promising and it continues to take us by surprise. Stay connected and track the winner, but don't bet your money on anyone, because nothing is clear at this point. Enjoy!

The rugby World Cup ended on Saturday night with the victory of South Africa on Stade de France. It was a good match and the English fought bravely, but the adversary was stronger and more determined to do it. In sport, luck plays an important part and there is only one winner and another chance for the other players. Real sport fans understand that and enjoy a good match and a hard struggle from their favorites than the triumph itself. After the English won against France, everyone celebrated in England and Jonny Wilkinson was a hero. However, when the odds turned against them and did not manage to overcome the South Africans, all the media reflected fans disappointment, because their expectation of repeating the 2003 performance and take the Cup. Every newspaper had headlines like Heartbreak among which Observer, Sunday Times or Sunday Telegraph published breaking articles. They tried to smooth the criticism by talking about pride and the fact that the team has as many weaknesses as qualities. Coach Brian Ashton told the players to leave Paris with their heads high, because after the six-weeks tournament they managed to get to the final, although no one believed they could. Furthermore, from the pathetic lost against South Africa with a score of 36-0 in a pool game at the beginning, they no really did their best and not only that they get to the final, but also succeeded to represent a challenge and the match ended with a score of 15-6. This year England managed to get from nowhere in the rugby World Cup final. Both they and the supporters should be proud of the achievements. Next year will be better and they might even win. We can only hope and wish their best. Don't forget, it's not about winning or losing, it all gets down to the game.

Prime Minister Gordon Brown congratulated the team at the Stade de France. Former Captain Will Carling stated that he was surprised and that England amazed everyone. As for Coach Brian Ashton he was praised by everyone and his decisions were for the first time after the match with Australia and France respected. However, Dawson says that the team still isn't what it should be. Despite all the flaws, he still believes that England has a big chance at the Cup and its adversary, no matter if it will be Argentina or South Africa- the ones that humiliated them in their last match- will be stunned by their performance on the field. Jonny Wilkinson was the hero and both David Walsh in Sunday Times' front page and the Sunday Express are reinforcing his high achievements over the French. Witness at the player's achievements was British Culture Secretary James Purnell too. Moreover, David Cameron, the leader of Britain's main opposition Conservatives was thrilled by the Rugby's team performance.

Since the first match in 1987, every four years the world's biggest sporting events takes place & the Rugby World Cup. This is the sixth year of its existence. Quadrennially, a total of twenty nations compete against each other in four different pools (according to the results during the previous cup), each pool consisting of five nations. Then, in the final, the winner and runner-up (first and second place) play against each other in a knock-out stage. This stage consists of quarter-finals, semi-finals and then, finally, finals. The first one ever was held in Australia and was won by England. Since then, England's rugby team had been the favorite.South Africa's Springboks team took part in the cup for the first time in year 1995. That year it was also this country that was hosting the whole cup. The trophy is named after William Webb Ellis, the founder of rugby himself. This year the tournament is hosted by France and there are 94 nations participating. Eight of them were qualified automatically, they won the quarter-finals in 2003 (England, France, Ireland, Scotland, Wales, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand). Then there are 86 regional qualifiers (from Arica, Europe, Asia, America and Oceania). This year, the world is hoping for the South Africa to beat England and overtake its champion position. The final match will take place on September 20, and the players are feeling pretty confidential after they had beaten Argentineans on October 14. Another issue that keeps them smiling is the recent drop-out of Josh Lewsey due to an injury. Change is good, it might do Africa well, to win the golden cup in the end.

After winning against France (les bleus) with a score of 14-9 on the Stade de France, English rugby team is praised by all those that criticized it during the last four years for its performance. Indeed they did not succeeded to win or to get even to the semi-finals after the winning of the World Cup in 2003. Not few people were surprised for getting into the semi-finals, however they obtained the respect of everyone. All England was celebrating their victory and even Prime Minister Brown had congratulated them. Moreover, they are lucky on all plans, not only on the field, but lately in the Web-based searches too. They knocked down the football team for the first time according to a report on Monday. The team's march towards the World Cup Final brought them a six-fold rise in the number of UK searches said online audience measurement firm Hitwise. Although the firm does not give actual numbers, it revealed a 250 percent increase in the search for the most popular rugby player, flyhalf Jonny Wilkinson. He was the team's hero and got many people to stand up and applaud him. Despite this terrific growth- both in female fans and popularity- rugby still cannot compete with football, the most popular sport in UK. However, things are heading for the best for this sport that had even royal attendance at the game. Prince Harry gasped when the score turned in favor of the English team. Don't go away!more to come!

After it was gutted the monster still weighted 638 pounds breaking the tournament's record for shark of 338 pounds. God job, fishermen! Good luck to all the others and enjoy the terrible tasty barbecue made out of the catch. Stay connected and watch out for big sharks, there are still many left uncatched.

Do you hear bible story about David and Goliath? Can you remember the end of this old story? If you can't, let me tell you the point. This story was about huge and powerful Goliath who was one day proudly fighting with small and skinny David. And guess who won?....I will give you a clue....not Goliath. All I wanted to say is, that sometimes it's surprising when we hear about little and not expected team to win like on Wednesday Croatia hits the England Goliath. And smacks him out from the EURO 2008. It will be the first time since 1984 that England miss out on the European Championship finals and the first time since the 1994 Word Cup that they have failed to qualify for a major tournament.All big preparing process for England team was for nothing. And last night was better little David. Croatia coach Slaven Bilic said that his team was simply a much better team last night. In the fact it was big surprise when fans on tribunes saw 2:2 and after a second-half substitute England captain Beckham said:"This is a big setback, not just for the players but the nation.....We have to show the English way which is to fight back." But they didn't win the match and Big Goliath fall down in front of the little David. Wednesday 21st November brought sadness to England Goliath but happiness to David Croatia.

Men have two main topics among themselves: sports and politics. Of course politics is a subject they approach later in life, while the other one is from a small age until they age and eventually die. When the two matter mix, there you have men's dream. Tiger Woods has fulfilled that dream. For those that don't know who Tiger Woods is (and I seriously doubt that there are too many), I will offer some details: is an American professional golfer whose achievements to date rank him among the most successful golfers of all time, currently the World No 1. Being impressed with Democratic Party presidential candidate Barack Obama for various reasons, when he was asked what he thinks on the senator from Illinois, who like himself has an African-American father, he revealed that he is impressed and see in him an inspiration for many in the United States. He added that he is genuine impressed by all the candidates and their determination and their way of pleading for their platform. Nevertheless, the World Champion preparing for the Dubai Desert Classic has not given any forecast regarding the outcome of the Presidential election. As wise as any qualified political analyst, he prefers to wait and see what will happen. Men like always know what they are talking when it comes to these two subjects that imply the competition for power. Good luck to Tiger and a fair chance to all the Presidential candidates.
