Super Bowl, Winter Olympics and NASCAR
Although I did not have a favorite in the Super Bowl, I guess I was rooting for Seattle. However, I am happy to see the Steelers get their victory and Jerome Bettis be able to retire at the top. Pretty ironic seeing how I am a diehard Cowboy fan. Oh well, football is not what it used to be, at least for me.
Now we get on to the start of my favorite sport, Nascar !!
And to fill in some of the missing schedule we have the Winter Olympics to watch. And yes in our house the women’s Figure [...]
Kwan made the Olympic Team ?
I guess this seems out of character for me, but Figure Skating is something I am pretty involved in. My oldest daughter Danielle is a Figure Skater, and at the Novice level she too has Olympic dreams. It is a tough sport to work your way to the top.
I am sure I am in the minority on the issue of Michelle Kwan being “given” a spot on the Olympic Team. Yes she has done a lot for the sport, but, there are others who have worked hard over the last few years that now deserve the spot.

In Beijing, a Sublimely Spectacular Opening Ceremony
By JEFF Z. KLEIN New York Times The opening ceremony of the 2008 Paralympics was staged at the Bird’s Nest on Saturday, and again the Beijing organizers put on an amazing show — but one perhaps even more sublimely beautiful than the opening of the Olympics. Although the event was televised live in several countries around the world, it was not shown on American television. However, it was streamed live on universalsports.com, and fortunately you can see the ceremony virtually in its entirety

The Cultural Olympiad: are the arts riding on sports’ coattails?
They’re still cleaning up in Beijing, but a couple of days ago British officials announced the initial Olympics-related spectacle for their 2012 games in London: a $75 million, pan-British arts and culture festival to kick off on September 26 and continue for almost four years. Key components of the Cultural Olympiad include a World Shakespeare Festival and a dozen “cutting-edge” art commissions to be selected from proposals made this fall. Much has been made of the Brits’ ambivalence about ho
