A View From the Top
Of the BCS that is!
Alabama is 10-0 for the first time in a long time, and frankly, I am super-stoked about it. I thought I would just dedicate this post to all those hoping for a Crimson Tide Championship for the first time since 92'. While we were down in Alabama, we couldn't pass up an opportunity to visit Bama's campus, especially since my grandparents live about 15 minutes away. The pictures are at night, and I forgot my tripod, so forgive the quality of some of them...

Game on!
VS.
I love college football, especially the University of Alabama. After all the big losses for USC, Ohio State and Florida, the stakes of this game are a potential top ranking in the BCS standings. The press is devided in their predictions, the fans are passionate, the stage is set in Athens with 93,000 in the stadium and many more watching at home -- GAME ON!
p.s. This game is also fun for me because the winner will determine whether Jason or myself will have bragging rights for a while!
ROLL TIDE ROLL!!!

The Beautiful Game
A walk-off grandslam home run in the playoffs, a hail-mary winning touchdown, a half-court game winning shot in the NBA finals. There are many sports moments that will get any persons blood pumping with adrenaline, whether or not their allegiance lies with any team involved in the competition. Sunday, June 15th offered us another intesely dramatic moment when Turkey faced off against the Czech Republic in the 2008 European Championships. 11 men for each side represented their country in a knock out match for the winner to advance to the quarter finals. Three goals in the final 15 minutes (2 in the final 5 minutes) would decide this epic battle.
For the nay-sayers, and for the football (soccer, for you anglos) lovers out there, I have embedded the highlights of one of the most passionate, exciting, and surprising games I have ever seen. I wish I could embed the highlight video for simplicity, but I'll have to settle for giving you the link here. Enjoy!
