Lovie is making deals

Wednesday, January 14th, 2009 | Chicago Bears, NFL | No Comments

The Chicago Bears are hard at working making big deals this off season. Rob Marinelli will be the assistant head coach/defensive line. As most NFL fans know Marinelli is the recorded breaking ex head coach of the lions that wa 0-16 this year. Yes, they did not win one game. Two years after blowing the Super Bowl the Bears are hiring Rob Marinelli? Lovie and Marinelli both had coaching positions with Tampa Bay. Looks like Lovie likes to hire friends, first Bob Babich and now the coach for the worst team in NFL history. I guess if you look at Chicago sports this is not a big surprise, the Cubs have not won the World Series in over 100 years and got swept the last two years in the playoff but fans keep buying tickets. Let see what else the Bears do this year, I think they should try and sign Michael Vick and Plaxico they are both great players.

NASCAR to get diversity program

Wednesday, January 14th, 2009 | General, NASCAR | No Comments

Max Siegel announced today that he will step down as president of global operations to run NASCARS diversity program. Siegel will still be an consultant for Earnhardt-Ganassi Racing in conjunction with his former law firm, Baker and Daniels. NASCAR’s The Drive for Diversity program is looking to generate minority and female competitors for the sport, not only for drivers but supports jobs also. Siegel is looking to increase the programs credibility inside and outside of the sport. Right now there are no full-time minority drivers in any of the two NASCAR series. This new program comes after NASCAR recently settled a $225 million lawsuit filed by Mauricia Grant. She claimed she was subjected to racial discrimination and sexual harassment over the two years she worked for the company.
