NFL Flashback: Arizona Beats Green Bay In A Thriller
Posted by Ross Everett in Sports on June 20, 2010
The Green Bay Packers entered the NFL playoffs as one of the league’s hottest teams, and mounted a 21 point second half comeback to force overtime against the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday. Things looked good when Green Bay won the toss, but only moments later their season was over after an Aaron Rodgers fumble that Karlos Dansby returned 17 yards for the game winning score. It was a strange ending to a classic offensive display.
Arizona sent much of the NFL football betting public home unhappy as well with their 6 point outright victory. The Cardinals had opened as -2′ home favorites but public sentiment favoring Green Bay had moved the line so significantly that Arizona was a +2′ home underdog by kickoff. With the victory, the Cardinals improved to 5-4 both SU and against the NFL pointspread at home this season. Obviously, the 96 points the two teams put on the board went well OVER the posted total of 48′.
Cardinals’ quarterback Kurt Warner improved his postseason record to 9-3 SU with one of the most impressive performances in league history. Warner finished with 379 yards passing and 5 touchdowns with no interceptions. Amazingly, Warner had more TD passes (5) than incomplete passes (4). After the game, he reflected on his performance:
“We knew how tough it was going to be on our defense with all the weapons they have offensively and how they’ve been playing. It was just one of those games where I felt great. I loved our playing. I felt like I was seeing everything well and it accumulates to 51 points.”
Packers’ QB Aaron Rodgers might be remembered more for the game ending fumble than his own impressive performance, but he matched Warner play for play in what will certainly go down as one of the best quarterback duels in NFL playoff history. Not surprisingly, the entire Packers’ team along with head coach Mike McCarthy took the loss hard:
“It’s clearly one of the toughest losses I’ve been a part of. I’m very proud of our football team and fight. This is a hard game to swallow.”
Quarterback Rodgers was in no mood to reflect on his excellent numbers, but was instead focused on reliving the decisive final play:
“I was trying to unload it. I should have held on to the ball. I was looking at the front side for Driv [Donald Driver]. It looked like he was getting grabbed a bit. Then I was looking for James [Jones] and they were driving in on him as he was running a little in cut, so I kind of pulled the ball back and someone hit my arm.”
Arizona will head to New Orleans to face the Saints at the Superdome next Saturday afternoon. The Cardinals are a +7 road underdog with the total set at 57. The two teams haven’t met since 2007, a game won by the Saints 31-24 on their home field.

David Beckham’s Recovery Behind Schedule
Posted by Ross Everett in Soccer on June 20, 2010
When David Beckham suffered a torn Achilles’ tendon in a Serie A game in mid-March, doctors gave him an outside chance of returning in time for the World Cup or at the very least part of the MLS season. Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like either of these favorable scenarios will transpire. In a recent statement to the media Beckham broke the news that his recovery is behind schedule and he won’t be able to resume playing soccer until November at the earliest.
This timetable does leave open the possibility that he could return to action should the Los Angeles Galaxy make the MLS playoffs. He’s been assured that he’s welcome back at AC Milan in Italy’s Serie A league whenever he’s back in playing shape, though neither the team nor Beckham have indicated anything specific about his future with the team.
Beckham, who is still using crutches to get around, explained his recovery process:
“I won’t be running for another three months, so I will be playing again in, probably, November.”
“My mentality is to kind of push it and get moving and running and soon as possible. But it’s an injury that has to take time to heal. It’s frustrating. It’s obviously disappointing because I’ve been working for the last two years to get into the English squad [for the World Cup].”
“At the moment, it’s just getting the motion back into the ankle, the tendon, because it’s still repairing. I’m trying to get mobilization back into the ankle.”
Beckham also recalled the injury itself:
“It was like being hit by a hockey puck. I thought someone was behind me and kicked me. Obviously no one was there and I saw my foot hanging and then I felt down there and there was a hole.”
The former England captain would have likely served in a reserve capacity with the World Cup squad. Even without Beckham in the lineup and with lingering injury issues plaguing Manchester United superstar Wayne Rooney soccer betting enthusiasts are bullish on England’s prospects this summer. The ‘Three Lions’ are currently the third favorite in World Cup future betting behind Brazil and Spain.

4 Critical Steps On Ways To Make Money On The Web With The Help Of Niche Marketing

Everybody talks about niche marketing and thousands if not millions of folks are either making a living on the web with it or want to earn money online with it. For those new to Niche Marketing, we describe it as getting a little piece from a huge pie. For instance the weight loss industry is the big pie and the piece of the pie or “niche market” could be loosing weight with natural juices. The more narrower you get the smaller the niche market and you will be focusing more on one group of individuals as oppose to something so broad like weight loss.
Listed below are four simple methods that will help you earn money online with niche marketing:
1. Keyword Research- Researching the right keywords is so critical that when you do this wrong or don’t do enough research, your niche site will not appear in the major search engines and you may not be concentrating on the best group of people.
2. Article Marketing- An awesome article with the proper keywords may get you a long way. You will have to write an article that will not only help the reader get what they want out of it, but it would also have to have that keyword to attract a lot of viewers to your site.
3. Monetization- This is the whole reason why we are into niche marketing. A number of us forget that we can add banners, adverts, and merchandise on our internet site to monetize it and are missing out on a big chunk of money. You could market services or products to your readers based on your niche market and keyword research.
4. Promotion- There are so many folks that wish to earn money on the internet and are entering the niche marketing business that you definintely should promote your own web pages. Whether or not it is through article marketing, back linking, or however, you must get more individuals to have a look at your sites.
All of these are all very important steps that may determine the profitability of your webpage and they must all be applied correctly. Everyone desires to earn money on the web in an industry so large like niche marketing, but not many of us know what it takes to start out and maintain a fantastic niche site.

A Reality Check For Your MLM Business.
Posted by Justin A. Caezar in Marketing on June 7, 2010
Every Thing Is Free?….The infamous saying that the best things in life are free has its limits. I am going to reveal to you one of the many reasons most internet marketers fail in their MLM business. The 99% of network marketers have and unrealistic perspective on how they are going to monetize and MLM opportunity. This is because of the lack of making sacrifice and understanding that this MLM business is all about budgeting.
This is where your reality check comes into play. This is the real deal on getting the most success with your MLM business. I am going to be as unbiased and realistic as I can with you. I would be a poor marketer if I didn’t give you the facts. If your only strategy for building exposure to your MLM opportunity is using free tools and recourses then your well on your way to having little or no success at all which is what neither of us want. Your not in this industry to have little success. Your in this industry to have the most success you can possibly get.
The top earners in the game are not worrying about how much this cost and how much that cost because cost is irrelevant. The top earners are more or less concerned about if what they are buying is going to build them value. Their goal is to gain value and apply that value consistently to the MLM opportunity. This is the case with them because they know that they guy with the most value wins.
I feel the need to share with you that it is important you not go around spending more money than you are making. That is just senseless. That is not what I am recommending at all. The tools and recourses that are necessary to build your MLM business are not just going to fall in your lap for free. Let me go into a 3 step plan to building an effective online business and generating MLM leads.
$500 – 2,000 Should Do The Trick…. This should be the figure of your capital which you are using to prepare for your internet success. I wish some one had given me this blueprint back in 2007. I was not only applying every old school marketing technique out there but I was losing a lot of money doing it. Back then I had the “get everything free mentality” like a lot of new network marketers have when it comes to generating MLM leads. An Aweber list building account and a professional lead capture page should also be taken into consideration when implementing this budget.
Use The Tools Your Money Can Buy…. Most of the elite top of the line tools that I use have monthly fees to them. If you as a professional business owner purchase these tools to help you generate MLM leads then what you are doing is digging a deep hole for yourself that you will regret. You don’t want to have to pay money from your personal expenses to support your MLM business. You want the business to run on the capital that it generates. Consistency and repetition should be your ally when using this strategy.
Say Goodbye To Overnight Success… This is the easiest path to frustration my friend. Don’t expect results to come fast. If everyone could make a million dollars in two months then you wouldn’t have a 95% fail rate in the industry today guys. They’re entrepreneurs and then they’re people who just want to make money online quickly. Which one are you?
Try and relax and stop obsessing over quick results. Make an art out of the paid marketing strategies you are utilizing. Understand that there is a process you will have to go through in order to obtain the success you desire. This three step plan along with the correct mindset will carry you far my friend. You apply this and you will definitely be surprised at how much ground you can actually cover.
