GREEN BAY AT CHICAGO, RENEGADES DROP ANOTHER






The Green Bay Packers visit Chicago today to play the Bears in a game the Packers need to win to keep pace with Dallas for the top spot in the NFC who beat the Carolina Panthers last night 20-13, Dallas still holds the tiebreaker over the Pack if they end up tied though. Also tonight the Washington Redskins visit Minnesota in a must win game for the Redskins if they want to keep there playoff hopes alive, a tonight and a win tonight against Dallas would probably get them in but they still could miss the playoffs if they win both. One thing for sure is the playoff picture will be much clearer after today. The Richmond Renegades dropped another game last night in Knoxville on guaranteed night to Knoxville 5-1 and yest there were plenty of fights, the Gades are terrible offensively, next up for the Gades is a game on Christmas day against Fayetteville. The East Carolina Pirates will play Boise State tonight in the Hawaii Bowl at 8pm, I guess will have to have a remote in my hand to watch the Skins and East Carolina game at the same time. The UVA basketball team beat Elon yesterday 91-61 at the JPJ Arena, the Cavs are now until Dec 30 when another powerhouse Hartford visits the JPJ. The CH girls basketball had a tough afternoon yesterday in Richmond falling to Highland Springs 64-39. My foot is still improving but my shoulder is now a bit sore after throwing about 50-60 pitches with dad yesterday so my AIP has gone up just a little. I am thinking about doing another video, you will have to check back later to see if I did. MICKEY

Whether you're winning or losing, it is important to always be yourself. You can't change because of the circumstances around you.

Health and Diet
Some quick fixes… Before eating pizza, blot the oil with a paper napkin to reduce the fat content. Use nonstick vegetable oil cooking sprays instead of regular oils. They can save you up to 100 calories and 14 grams of fat/serving. Keep a bowl of fruit on the counter and raw vegetables in the front of the refrigerator so they're at the ready as a healthy snack. Add a handful of walnuts (about 4 whole) to a salad instead of cheese. They contain heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids.

EXERCISE TIP
Sleep Benefits
Sleep duration and patterns can affect sports training and performance. Most people need 7 or 8 hours of sleep, and your body functions at its best when you have regular sleep patterns, generally sleeping at about the same time every night. So if your workouts, practices, or competitions aren´t going well, consider whether you´re getting enough sleep.

Action and attitude
Your actions affect your attitude and your attitude drives your actions. It can indeed be powerful to get your actions and your attitude working consistently in the same direction.

A small positive action can often make a big positive difference in your outlook on life. Even something quick and simple can shift your momentum.

In the same way, a small positive shift in your attitude can encourage you to take action when you previously were not inclined to do so. Just a brief empowering thought can get you moving forward.

So if you cannot quite bring yourself to take action, at the very least you can convince yourself to carry a more positive attitude. After all, thinking does not require any physical effort at all, and before long that positive attitude will surely lead you to take action.

Or, if you find yourself resisting a positive attitude, at the very least you can take some small beneficial action. And you'll be amazed at how soon that will lead to a more positive attitude.

Whether it's through your actions or through your attitude, there's always a way to introduce a more affirmative perspective into your life. Stay focused on the positive possibilities, and life will continue to grow more richly rewarding.
