Doesn’t make sense, why is Richard Shaefer involved?

Why the heck is Richard Shafer (CEO of Golden Boy Promotions) involved with Bob Arum for a potential Pacquiao-Mayweather fight? Mayweather doesn’t represent Golden Boy, he has his own line of a promotional firm (Mayweather promotions with Leonard Ellerbe as the CEO)

Bottom Line: Why Richard Shaefer of Golden Boy promoting/representing Mayweather? Pacquiao is from Top Rank no question, with Bob Arum being his promoter but Shaefer/Mayweather??? Isn’t there more than just two boxing promotional firms?

Doesn’t make sense, why is Richard Shaefer involved?

Are you a poker chip hoarder?

Hit ‘Hoarders’ returns for third season – Entertainment – Reality TV – TODAYshow.com

Excerpt:
“Hoarders” was a hit from the start at A&E, and last winter’s second season saw an audience 10 percent higher than the first, the Nielsen Co. said. It averaged 2.3 million viewers an episode and, in the truest mark of success for a nonfiction cable show, produced imitators such as TLC’s “Hoarding: Buried Alive” and “Confessions: Animal Hoarding,” on Animal Planet.
…
Like popular cable series about pawnbrokers, cupcake bakers, Alaskan fishermen and ice road truckers, “Hoarders” offers viewers an intimate look into a world they probably wouldn’t know. Unlike those shows, it’s a sad, sometimes horrifying world. if you find something funny, it’s hard not to feel guilty about it.

=============================
I started watching these three shows about hoarding…and they’re quite fascinating, even a bit gross.

But it made me wonder…am I a poker chip hoarder?

Are you a poker chip hoarder?

Navy @ Maryland | 2010-09-06 | NCAA Football | Betting Preview …

NAVY @ MARYLANDFootball : United States : NCAA FootballMonday, September 6th, 2010 – Kickoff 4:00PM ET(9:00PM GMT)

Bit of early football to whet your appetite before the big one between Boise and VT (Preview by Goober on the main page too!) why not excercise your betting balance too. go on!

Navy Midshipmen

Navy racked up 10 wins last season, meaning they have now had 7 straight seasons in which they have scored 8 wins or more. QB Ricky Dobbs is off a brilliant last season, rushing for 1203 yards and he also broke Tim Tebows record for rushing touchdowns scored by a QB with 27. Dobbs trained throughout the offseason and will lead the teams triple-option which could prove fatal for the Terps.

Also carrying the ball, in addition to QB Dobbs will be Aaron Santiago and Gee Gee Greene. Seniors Jeff Battipaglia and Matt Malloy are back for their last seasons and that means the triple option is further strengthned by experiences.

On defence, the Midshipmen of Navy did a very good job last year. They are anchored by Jabaree Tuani, who is beginning his junior year (Year 3 of 4). Tuani had a so-so season last year but is a solid competitor and will bounce back strong here in the opener. In the secondary, Navy return many veteran players who will keep the defence strong. Senior Wyatt Middleton is the defensive captain and a great playmaker, and collected 68 tackles last year.

Maryland Terrapins

Ralph Friedgen is about to start his 10th season as coach of the Terps and will be hoping his side can improve on last years 2-10 finish. The Terps do tend to do well in season openers though, as they have won 5 in the last 6 years.

Junior Jamarr Robinson, who started just 2 games last year and played a small part in 5 more games, will be the QB this season. look for him to go to Torrey Smith out wide, who also returns the ball very well. on the other side of the pitch will be Adrian Cannon, giving Robinson 2 options when his side aren’t running the ball, which is their main source of attack.

The defense has to pull it’s socks up as the last years performances weren’t good enough. The one bright spot was linebacker Alex Wujciak, who is probably one of the best in the country. He racked up an average of 10.92 tackles per game, and will pose the biggest threat to the Navy offense. Adrian Moten will join him in the linebacking corps, along with Demetrius Hartsfield, who is another young talent with a lot of potential to do well.

Cameron Chism is the main man in the secondary, collecting 4 interceptions last year, and is a solid player in the corner. The other corner will be filled by McDougle and Trenton Huges.

BETTING VERDICT

So, a bit of team news there, but on strategy, Maryland will try and run the ball and on a neutral field, albeit in Baltimore, I don’t see them get this done. The line has dropped to only 6 and if you are an ATS bettor, I would go with Navy -6 as I can see them win by at least a touchdown. The straight up win is priced at 1.45 and I think this is good enough to lump on. Enjoy the game!

The Pick : Navy to winFIXED ODDS BETTING :Navy to win @ 1.45 (Pinnacle)HANDICAP BETTING :Navy -6 @ 1.95 (Pinnacle)

Amsterdam News Goes With Eric Schneiderman For Attorney General

The New York Amsterdam News has endorsed state Sen. Eric Schneiderman in the Democratic primary for attorney general, praising his four rivals, but singling him out as the man for the job by virtue of his having “been a stalwart defender of the rights for our community.”

The 95-year-strong black newspaper writes, in part:

“As attorney general, Schneiderman says he will to bring real reform to the state. One of these reforms is an innocence unit within the criminal division that, when appropriate, will examine prior convictions to ensure that justice is done. He will work to protect the environment and make sure that our water is safe, starting with preventing dangerous gas drilling upstate until the methods are proven safe.

He will endeavor to protect the people of the state by reforming unfair market practices in the financial sector while, at the same time, ensuring faith in our own public sector.

His agenda is too numerous to go into in its entirety, but it is aggressive and ambitious.”

The paper’s endorsement could be a boost to Schneiderman in that he’s long been touting the diversity of his backers and trying to position himself as the most appealing candidate to black and Latino voters among an all-white slate of statewide hopefuls.

The Amsterdam News also endorsed Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand and Reps. Charlie Rangel of Manhattan and Ed Towns of Brooklyn for re-election.

Local filming ended after 'Transformers' accident – Chicago …

Cedillo remained unconscious Friday, in critical but stable condition at Loyola University Medical Center in Maywood, relatives said. The family was gathered at the hospital.

“We haven’t talked to her,” said her mother, Rosa Cedillo, adding that there were no immediate plans for surgery.

The film crew released a statement saying: “Our thoughts and prayers are with Gabriela, her family and loved ones. We are looking into what caused the accident.”

The Indiana Occupational Safety and Health Administration has begun an investigation into the incident, according to spokesman Marc Lotter.

Lotter said OSHA must first determine whether Cedillo, as a paid extra, was hired as an independent contractor or as an employee. If she was hired as an employee, OSHA would have jurisdiction.

“We’re looking into the general circumstances that led to the accident and the employment status of the victim,” said Lotter. “Once we determine the circumstances, we will look into if there were safety violations or training issues.”

Cedillo was injured as the movie crew filmed a scene on Cline Avenue in Hammond that involved drivers moving along a busy highway as explosions went off in the opposite lane.

A metal object smashed through the windshield of her car and struck her in the head.

Her car continued moving, skidding along the inner median concrete barrier for about a mile before coming to a stop, Indiana state police said.
