2013: The Year in Sports

2013 has been a year of ups and downs. Wisconsin sports have been rolling while NFL coaches are moving on. The Brewers made it to their first World Seires since 1982 but eventally ended up losing to the Yankee/Dodger wanna bees, Blue Jays/ Marlins. The Brewers made the the biggest trade deadline deal this season by aquiring Bryce Harper and Ryan Zimmerman for Corey Hart, Willy Peralta, Michael Fiers, Carlos Gomez Jean Sugera and Rickie Weeks.  While the Bucks made it too the playoffs for once in their lives but were without the NBA's leader in Blocks, Larry Sanders because he fell down his stairs at home and broke his leg and arm. Bucks got Swept in the first round. Now onto the NFL... Rex Ryan, Romeo Cornel, Ken Whisenhut, Andy Reid, Tom Coughlin, Denis Ryan, Norv Turner, Pat Shurmur all got fired. 25% of the leagues head coaches got fired in the off-season. Thats your 2013, Year in Sports!

Storage Wars Staged?

Dave Hester from the show Storage Wars has filed a lawsuit against the show saying that it is staged. Dave was fired from the show for coming out and saying that it was sstaged. Storage Wars is A&E's most popular show ever and has declined to comment on this. Dave says that the show goes into lockers and places high value items into them to make the show more entertaining. He is represented in this case by the same man who represented Charlie Sheen in his lawsuit against Two and a Half Men. I really hope that this show isnt staged because i love watching it and it is very entertaining!

Auto Sales Booming!

In Novemeber, last month the car sales are up 15% from the same time last year. This is the highest rate that the cars have sold at since January 2008. Honda, Nissan, BMW and Hyundai had their best Novembers ever selling more cars this year in November than any other year. More than1.1 million cars were sold in November in the U.S. Most or a high percentage of those cars were imports rather than the domestic brands. Some of these sales were replacing the roughly 250,000 cars that were destroyed by Superstorm Sandy. So i dont think that it is a good sign to the economy but it is a good sign to automakers for sure.
