Prayer, hyperbaric chambers and old-fashioned extensive rehabilitation come to
mind when reflecting on ways to regain top form. Visiting a holistic healer
wouldn't be an ideal way to mend an injury, however.

Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson isn't one to take the easy road
in strengthening his anatomy (see NFL.com Fantasy ad) and alternative medicine
just doesn't fit with the man better known as A.D. (All Day) or Purple Jesus.
Peterson, of course, is undergoing extensive rehab on a torn ACL and MCL in
his left knee suffered during a 33-26 win over Washington on December 24.
Already getting over a high ankle sprain, Peterson said he knew something was
bad after taking a blow from Redskins saf...

Various reports, including MLB.com, have indicated that Ramirez has agreed to
a minor league contract worth $500,000.

Ramirez played just five games with Tampa Bay last April and suddenly
announced his retirement after a second violation of the league's Joint Drug
Prevention and Treatment Program. The penalty would have included a 100-game
suspension, but he instead chose to hang up his cleats.

In December, Ramirez applied for reinstatement. The Office of the Commissioner
and the Players Association then decided that Ramirez must first serve a 50-
game suspension.

Ramirez, a 12-time All-Star who will turn 40 years old on May 30, previously
served a 50-game ban in 2009 as a member of the Dodgers for his f...

We are just a few days away from the first NASCAR race of the season and fans cannot wait to see the official green flag for the Daytona 500.  This year’s race will feature a new asphalt surface, which will be a welcome to drivers after dealing with the pot holes at last year’s race.  With the new track, tires won’t be the issue anymore.  With the smooth surface, engine cooling will be the big issue.

This will be the first race with two car tandem drafting replacing big packs of cars drafting.  This is going to be interesting to watch with the new changes to the cooling systems and smaller front grill openings.  NASCAR officials hope this will stop drivers from pushing for such long stresses and cut down on cars going airborne.

The regular season will end in a few days as teams continue to battle for a prime position in their respective conference standings. What they can do over the next few days will go a long way towards determining their postseason fate. Looking back at this season we have a clear picture of every team in Division I to clearly single-out out which programs are hot and which ones are not.

This list will identify the money makers that have been and continue to be white-hot against the spread. It will also point out the teams that have been a major drain on the bankroll by their inability to cover the spread. In the end we will have a weekly handicapping guide with a list of teams that you should bet on as well as a few to avoid altogether.
