Congratulations to Natalie Gulbis (she was in France, hence the French spelling of her name) for winning her first LPGA Tournament, the Evian Masters in France. It's good to see her shed the "Anna Kournikova of the LPGA Tour" label.
Congratulations to Tony Stewart for winning the Brickyard 400. He had the dominant car and earned that win.
Don't look now, but the races in the NL Central and West have tightened up considerably. In the wild wild West, there are three teams within a half game of first (Los Angeles, Arizona, and San Diego) and another within 3 1/2 games (Colorado). In the NL Central, the Cubs have closed to within hal####ame of the Brewers.
NFL training camps have opened, and that means REAL football is coming soon. It can't come soon enough!!
LOL! That's why I led off with the Hottest Woman in Sports, Natalie Gulbis!! I'd put her up against any Hollywood actress, and she would definitely hold her own.
I am from Central California. I am passionate about sports, particularly the NFL and NASCAR. My favorite teams are: Panthers (NFL), Lakers (NBA), Flyers (NHL), and Dodgers (MLB). I am also a Kevin Harvick fan in NASCAR. I am a Fresno State honk. (I'll admit it!) And I am also a fan of MMA. Jackie Robinson to this day represents what is right about baseball. I also enjoy discussing the relevant (and sometimes irrelevant) issues of the day pertaining to sports. I will never understand why televised poker is so popular. Who wants to see a bunch of people sitting around a table, muttering to themselves? I do my best to keep politics out of my sports discussions. That is why I recently created a nonsports blog, cencalscribe. blogspot.com. That is where I post my nonsports topics.
