...as Uniteds first double over Wednesday for 14 years.

Watford climbed above Leeds to claim third place in the table after beating second-from-bottom Brighton at the Withdean Stadium. The Hornets withstood early pressure from the home side but secured a narrow 1-0 victory at 11/10 thanks to a Chris Eagles goal on the stroke of half-time.

Leeds were held to a draw at Leicester, despite the home side playing 79 minutes with just 10 men. Iain Hume put the Foxes in front after five minutes before Patrick McCarthy was sent off for a foul on Rob Hulse, which led to Robbie Blake equalising from the resulting penalty.

Super bowl XL

...not going to make that coaching mistake. Wow! You dont usually hear trash talk like that the week of the Super bowl.

Perhaps the most important thing to assess before this game is that the Seahawks have been outstanding at home the last few years, but mediocre on the road. Even this season they were 5-3 on the road, winning both playoff games at home. They have a significant edge at home partly because its a long road trip for opponents to Seattle, and also because of their 12th man -- their raucous fans. That home field caused more opponents to be called for false starts than at any other venue in the nfl this season. Thats also an edge the Seahawks wont be bringing to Detroit on sunday. And theyll be facing a tough, Pittsburgh team that just dispatched Cincinnati, Indy and denver all on the road! If Seattle wins this title, they will have to earn it without those edges. Good luck, as always...more

Planning To Become A WAHM - Have Your Game Plan In Order

...So, you decided to fire your boss and become a work at home mom. Sounds absolutely amazing. No 5a.m. alarm clock, no rush hour traffic, no dropping the children off at the sitter's. Everything is going to be great from this point on. Or is it?

Hundreds, if not thousands, of women are taking the leap and walking away from their 9 to 5 jobs and working from home. It sounds very tempting and because of the explosive impact the internet has had on our society working from home isn't just a dream, it's reality.

...Did you watch the Super Bowl? I slept through the third quarter because there is switch in this old mans body that turns to OFF and there is nothing in Gods Universe that can take it off automatic. So I sleep for part of all football games. I just can't get that switch set to halftime.

I also miss part of each game because I read while Im watching the game. If not reading, Im doing a logic puzzle. If not reading or doing a puzzle, Im out in the kitchen brewing something up. So I never see all of a football game. Not even the Super Bowl, the football game of all football games.

Despite my inattention, yeste...more

How To Teach Aggressive Soccer Play

...It is rough to win these if you are fearful of contact. The most hard squad might typically "win" most of the 50/50 balls and might generally gain the match. It is decisive that your defenseive players be rugged and not fearsome of full contact. If a player is cowardly of bodily contact, you might spare several goals if you play him or her at Fullback or Sweeper. Any player who is cowardly of full contact is at a disadvantage. Ideally, you desire to Teach your players to not only be brave and unafraid of bodily contact, but also to move fast and be strong about moving to the ball and to gain open balls. This is usually not easy to Instruct. A few children are by nature cautious and most young youngsters have been instructed that boisterous or aggressive play is bad because someone can get wounded. We are often asked how coaches can Instruct players to be more hard. We think that getting into the game and tough play are two of the most crucial affairs you can Instruct. Merely expressed, the players who get rough and play aggressively might have more gratification and enjoyment from playing than those who do not.

Now, we are not talking about encouraging dirty, unsafe or unfair pl...more

...ed but Broughtons counted to earn a vital 6/4 win.
