RENEGADES WIN 8TH STRAIGHT, A TOUGH NIGHT FOR THE COLONIALS

The Richmond Renegades won there 8th straight game Friday night knocking off the Knoxville Ice Bears 3-0 in Knoxville, the Gades will go for there 9th straight win Saturday night against Twin City in Winston-Salem, NC. It was tough night again for both the Colonials girls and boys basketball teams against Prince George. The CH girls fell to Prince George in 2OT 72-69, the Colonials missed a shot at the buzzer which would have sent the game to a 3rd overtime. I went to the boys game and when I left PG was up by about 30, it was a very physical game with several on court confrontations which resulted in several technical fouls. I have to say there doesn't appear to be any love lost in any sports in which CH and PG are playing each other, I also understand from numerous sources that the girls was a pretty rough affair also. I am heading to the beach at 5am that's why I am writing Saturday's entry to the blog Friday night. I almost forgot the VCU Rams will be at home Saturday night against the Drexel Dragons, Go Rams, MICKEY

Fitness Tip
Who said you have to act your age? Remember playing stickball, handball or whiffle ball? Stage a tournament on your block or get the guys together for a game of pick up basketball. You’ll burn hundreds of calories before you know it. And then you can go home and have someone kiss your boo-boo and make it better.

Expect the best
Some people make a practice of expecting the worst, in an effort to avoid being disappointed. Yet when you expect the worst you also focus on it and visualize it, thereby pushing yourself in a negative direction.

A more positive and effective strategy is to expect the best. Then build upon that expectation with preparation and action.

Expect the best, and visualize, in great detail, your own participation in it. That puts you into a powerful frame of mind, orients you toward success, and brings your expectations to life.

Expect the best, and you enable yourself to recognize and make full use of the opportunities coming your way. Expect the best, while preparing to handle whatever may come along, and you'll be ahead of the game from the very beginning.

No, life will not always live up to your highest expectations. Yet when the disappointments do come, choose even then to expect the best eventual outcome, and you're much more likely to get it.

Base your expectations on the best that you can imagine for every situation. More often than not, you'll go precisely where you expect to go.
