The Virginia Cavaliers will be going for the 8th straight victory this afternoon against a very pesky NC State Wolfpack team which knocked off East Carolina last week. A victory this afternoon would give the Cavaliers a 1 game lead over Virginia Tech in Coastal Division of the ACC. Also this afternoon the Georgia Bulldogs will play the Florida Gators, the Gators must win to keep the BCS championship hopes alive. I have posted some other games of interest to the right. In high school football action last night the Crawford County Eagles picked up a 14-7 win over Marion County, with the win the Eagles improve to 5-4 on the season, also the JV Eagles won on Thursday as well. I understand that fellow blogger Scott Woodfin was on the chain gang last night. All football games in the Central District were washed out last night. The Richmond Renegades open up there season tonight at the Richmond Coliseum against the Jacksonville Barracudas, the Barracudas are 1-1 and will be playing there 3rd game in as many nights. Greg Biffle captured the pole for this weeks at Atlanta edging Kurt Busch for the top spot, Dale Jarrett qualified 3rd. The World Series also resumes tonight in Denver with the Red Sox with 2-0 series lead, the Rockies must win tonight. My day got of to a good start this morning because Wal-Mart actually had some fresh donuts. It is still raining a bit here in Colonial Heights this morning but it is suppose to clear off later today.

Misfortune behind you
How do you respond when something doesn't go your way? Do you agonize, complain and bring yourself down by feeling sorry for yourself? Do you make the situation even worse by letting it stop you in your tracks?
A negative experience is no reason for negativity. In fact, a negative experience is all the more reason to remain resolutely positive. The thing to do when you've been knocked down is to get back up. Wallowing in your misfortune makes no sense at all.
Have you had a bad day? Have you had a bad month? Smile. It's over and done with. Move forward. The past does not equal the future unless you allow it. Have you tried your best and failed? Smile. That's history. Look up. Look forward. Set an even more compelling goal and start moving positively toward it.
Just because misfortune affects you doesn't mean it must control you. Get misfortune behind you. Transcend it. Rise above it and move swiftly forward as you surely can.
