"I played a pretty good point before that. Just making the return, you get disheartened when he doesn't miss the next ball because it's tough to get a serve back. He had a great volley there. I don't really remember much else besides the fact that I went for the ball, I hit it, I didn't really think much of it. Then I heard people cheering. I was like, ‘No, there's no way that went in.' I guess it did."

Rutgers 23-20 Army (OT)
Rutgers came back from trailing 17-3 at halftime to win over the Army Black Knights 23-20 in the first overtime. 14 points behind at halftime and a scoreless third quarter, Rutgers came fighting in the fourth quarter and climbed back to level the score and send the game into extra time. Running back Joe Martinek finally seals the win for The Scarlet Knights with a one-yard carry. It would be awesome to have been there during the fourth quarter! Great job, Rutgers!

Another death :(
First, there was the 13 year old kid, now a 19 year old.
Japanese rider Tomizawa dies in San Marino Moto2 GP(AFP) – 5 hours ago
MISANO, Italy — Japanese rider Shoya Tomizawa died from injuries sustained in a crash in the San Marino Moto2 Grand Prix on Sunday.
The 19-year-old Technomag-CIP rider came off his Suter bike when under pressure from the fast charging Italian Alex de Angelis.
Neither de Angelis nor British rider Scott Redding were able to avoid hitting Tomizawa, who was propelled over 40 metres and off the track into the gravel.

2010 Formula 1
I was quite upset when I went on the website just before the season started to find that: (a) Kimi Raikkonen is nowhere to be found and (b) Michael Schumacher is back, but not with Ferrari, with Mercedes GP! I mean, what the heck?!?! Ferrari now has Felipe Massa and Fernando Alonso as their drivers. And I think they banned cigarette companies from sponsorships (they were talking about it before) because Marlboro is not on the Ferrari anymore.I am still disappointed by how things turn out in that world but I was very excited about this sport and I might try to follow it again. Apparently they changed the points system, too! Now positions 1-10 gets 25, 18, 15, 12, 10, 8, 6, 4, 2, 1 points respectively.

wtf?!
Something's definitely wrong with that girl! In an interview she was saying stuff like that's not her, she's not out there to hurt anyone bla bla bla... I just can't believe she only got a yellow card for all that crap!

While I'm posting, might as well...
Ferrari's axing Kimi Raikkonen, replacing him with Fernando Alonso, in 2010. Guess I won't be watching F1 anymore...

Schumacher for Massa?
First of all, I hope Massa isn't too badly injured. Latest reports say he's conscious now but still in the hospital. He'd be out for the rest of the season to focus on his health. There are reports that he might retire early because of this accident. I really hope that's not true because he's been great.
Ferrari is currently looking for a replacement for Massa. And apparently legend Michael Schumacher is leading the race. I'm not quite sure if it's official yet but a lot of people seem to think so. The last article that I read said that he would consider it if Ferrari offers him the seat. That would be awesome, having Schumi back on Ferrari's cars. He's still actively supporting Ferrari behind the scenes (not sure what he does exactly but he's always there).
Get well soon, Massa!

Nice job, Roddick!
So that douche ended up winning but I don't give a shit. Andy Roddick play so freaking well! People didn't expect him to be in the final (I actually thought he had already lost because everyone wouldn't stop talking about RF like he had already won). Everyone wrote him off even before the game started. Prove all the haters wrong! You did exceptionally well, Andy! Proud to have supported you today! Keep up the good job. There's always another time to make the douche cry.

F1 in trouble
The deadline has passed and the 8 teams in Formula One Teams Association (FOTA) failed to reach an agreement with the FIA about rule changes for the upcoming seasons.
For now, it seems like they're gonna be divided into 2 races next season. FOTA consists of the following teams: BMW Sauber, Brawn, Ferrari, McLaren, Red Bull, Renault, Toro Rosso, Toyota. It was announced yesterday that their association will have their own series in 2010.
I don't really know what rules they are talking about and I'm not even curious. However, seeing that the big names of F1 are in FOTA, I have to say that if I must choose I'd watch FOTA's series rather than F1 itself. But either way, if this issue is not resoled soon it might be the beginning of the end for the Formula 1 series. It's never a good idea to split a successful series into 2 competing series.

Talk about unlucky!
Massa with the incredible start, leading the race with a significant time, had to have his Ferrari engine blow up with only 3 laps to go! Massa started the race third, and with an amazing maneuver took over the lead passing the two McLarens. Man, I would be crying if I were him! That's a Ferrari engine! How often does a Ferrari engine blow up when you're leading the race with 3 laps to go?!
Kovalainen got his first win of his career, Glock got second which gives him his first podium position. A little good news for the Ferrari camp, Kimi Raikkonen finished third, getting him back up on the podium. And soon, he's gonna start winning again!
Kimi actually was closing fast, with 4 laps to go he was just inches away from Glock! Only because Massa's engine blew up, I assume Ferrari told Kimi to slow down and just try to get his car through the finish line.
Come on Ferrari!

Congrats to Boston Celtics
I guess they do earn it. Beating the Lakers by 37 points in game 6, making it 4-2 on the series for the win. They made the Lakers fail to have their greatest comeback (24 points in under 8 minutes) in game 2. Made one of the greatest comebacks in game 4. And they did play well in general. So.. congrats!!

some sports news...
Nadal defeated Federer in 3 straight sets, with the last set won 6-0 by Nadal... Pretty embarassing for the world #1 I suppose..
LA Lakers lost Game 2 of NBA Finals which means Boston leads 2-0 on the series. Next we're going to the Staples Center and hopefully the Lakers can turn things around. I only watched about half of the 4th quarter and it was really good! Lakers were down 24 points with about 7 minutes to go. They refused to give up and with 30+ seconds to go the gap was down to 2. Unlucky they couldn't keep their momentum going and the game ended up 108-102 to the Celtics... Come on Lakers!
Lewis Hamilton crashed into Kimi Raikkonen WHO WAS DOING ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WAITING FOR THE LIGHT!! WTF?! Kimi could have won it cos he beat Hamilton from the pit stop, but he just crashed into the Ferrari. Man even I could do better than that!
Finally, it's halftime and Romania and France are tied at 0-0. According to the commentators France haven't really been playing well cos their attacks are too obvious. Don't really care cos I'm gonna be watching the way more important match, Netherlands vs Italy later tonight.

Turkish GP

Massa got a hattrick winning Turkish grand prix for the 3rd year in a row now... Congrats!! :D Teammate Kimi Raikkonen finished 3rd. The outcome means Kimi is still on top of the driver's table with 35 points, and Massa moved up to 2nd with 28 points. Ferrari is way ahead at the constructor's table with 63 points, 19 ahead of 2nd place BMW Sauber.
Ferrari seem to be doing well this season.

Kimi Raikkonen

Well I haven't been following the F1 world since I got here but I just remembered that they had a race and hell yeah! Kimi took pole after Saturday's qualifiers, and won the race without contest! What's even better? Massa started 3rd and stole a position from Lewis Hamilton! Yeah!!
Kimi is now 1st on the driver's championship with 29 points, ahead of Hamilton (20). Massa jumps to 4th place with 18 points. Ferrari is sitting comfortably at the top of the constructor's championship wiht 47 points.
