Hello My Loyal Blog Followers,

Recently I have been looking for referrals to help me on Treasure Trooper. So I am reaching out to all of my loyal blog followers.

Here is what I am offering to all of you. I will offer you $5 for every $50 you make via Treasure Trooper. And this month Treasure Trooper is having a huge contest where the top two prizes are a Nintendo Wii or a Laptop. Since I have both of those items, if I place in the top two for the October contest I will raffle off the item I win on this site, for anyone who joins.

Here is the criteria:

1) Signup for Treasure Trooper by clicking here. You will only be eligible to win the raffle if you do as such.
2) I will request contact with you, primarily just to see your email address. Make sure to accept & I will periodically email you suggestions & helpful hints.
3) Must be 18 years of age, solely because the website doesn’t offer much for anyone younger.

To reiterate for every $50 you make I will send you $5 for as long as you are a member of the site. So if you earn $10,000 on the site I will give you $1,000. And you can tell your friends to join & give them the same incentive.

So make sure to join today, so I can raffle off a big prize. The more people who click the link above, the more free items I can give away in the future – such as an Xbox, iPad & much more.

You can change emails on the offers, but make sure the email is legitimate (ie Yahoo, Hotmail, Google, etc.). As an added perk Treasure Trooper is paying people $175 this month if they sign up for DirectTV.

So signup today & let’s make you more money.

As per most Americans basketball doesn’t exist between July & mid October. There are far more interesting things to watch – baseball, college football, pro football, etc. So it’s amazing how much coverage the NBA is getting this offseason, mainly due to the incompetence of one LeBron James.

After making a mockery of free agency by holding a “live special” on ESPN to tell Jim Grey he was going to Miami Heat, after rambling for almost an hour, LeBron has more to say.

LeBron James seems to think because he is not white that is the reason people are aggravated he joined the Heat. If LeBron James had just announced he’d be going to the Heat, only the Cavs fans would have anything to say about it. Instead James made a one hour spectacle of himself to pretend to donate money to a charity, which rubbed a lot of people the wrong way.

People aren’t criticizing you because of the color of your skin, no one cared when Amare Stoudamire joined the Knicks or Carlos Boozer joined the Bulls. But because you made a spectacle of yourself people got annoyed. Here’s a thought, rather than try to paint every one else as racist for mocking you for leaving your hometown team, how bout you just shut up & play basketball? That is assuming you remember how to play, after spending all summer doing interviews that make you look like a moron.

The Mets end the season in 4th place as most expected due to their incompetent management & lazy players. But alas next week Jerry Manuel & Omar Minaya are expected to lose their current titles, though many feel as though Minaya will be “Reassigned” within the organization.

It is amazing the only one on the Mets who has any interest in trying these days is a relief pitcher no one else wants on their team. Pedro Feliciano, the Mets left handed specialist, has appearred in 91 games this year (as of Wednesday) & is bemoaning about appearing in the rest of the Mets games. The Mets have no other reliable pitchers left on the roster, so why not let him pitch in the last three games?

Usually Feliciano comes in to face one batter, throws three pitches & is done for the night. The problem is Feliciano is legitimately the only pitcher the Mets have who doesn’t have to worry about being released or traded in the offseason.

Hopefully the Mets can put together an offseason their fans can be proud of, rather than continually signing middle of the road talent & pretending their stealing players.

A few years ago Rafael Soriano was a hard throwing reliever for the Atlanta Braves. The Braves had no idea what to do with him. Considering the Braves have always had many capable arms, this didn’t shock any one. Soriano had been used in multiple middle relief roles up until last year. The Braves realized their co-closer committee at the time of Soriano & Gonzalez wasn’t working. This was due large in part because of Soriano’s dominance & Gonzalez’s inconsistency.

As a result late into the season Soriano was made full time closer & flurished in the role. Many thought that Soriano would be the closer for a long time. When the Braves signed Saito & Wagner in the offseason they sent Soriano on his way to Tampa Bay. Soriano has now become the 2nd most dominant closer in baseball, behind the legendary Mariano Rivera.

Before the Braves traded Soriano to the Rays they signed him to a one year contract, meaning Soriano is free to go wherever he chooses once the Rays are eliminated in the playoffs. As a result Soriano has lined himself up for a big pay day this off season & to help matters he has enlisted super agent Scott Boras to help with the negotiations.

There are many teams out there in desperate need of a closer, among them being the Angels, Mets, Braves, White Sox & Diamondbacks. As is usually the case a team will overpay for a player’s services in order to secure a deal, so Soriano will be a pretty rich man come next year, dominating in the playoffs will only help matters.

For the past few years all the talk has been about how great the SEC is. It is understandable as the SEC has produced most of the champions of recent years. However the Big Ten maybe be catching up to the “deepness” the SEC rallyists point to when they state their claim for being the best conference.

Ohio St, Michigan, Wisconsin & Michigan St are all ranked undefeated teams in the conference, though Wisconsin plays Michigan St this weekend. Northwestern & Indiana are also undefeated. Iowa & Penn St are each 3-1 but ranked, as well. The top 8 teams in the conference have a combined two losses. By contrast the SEC’s best teams South Carolina & Arkansas have as many losses as the top 8 Big Ten teams.

The biggest contrast this year is the bad teams in the SEC are god awful & the bad teams in the Big Ten are average, usually you can flip the script. Unfortunately SEC schools schedule “cookies” in the week prior to their season finale, whereas the Big Ten will be playing each other for the majority of the season.

At the beginning of the year any NFL “expert” would’ve looked at the 49ers schedule & assume they’d win at least 11 games & run away with the terrible NFC West division crown. After four weeks they are 0-4, looking terrible in all phases of the game, yet still are considered to be the favorites to win the division.

The offense has looked suspect at times this season, mainly due to turnovers every other series & a lack of scoring points in the red zone. As a result Jimmy Raye was fired & Alex Smith can claim another offensive coordinator change is the reason why he is a failure.

The defense has struggled at times as well. The team doesn’t seem to give up many rushing yards but every quarterback looks like Peyton Manning against their abysmal secondary. 49ers fans were told Taylor Mays was great & the best safety in the draft, yet he’s not good enough to start over guys who wouldn’t even been in the league if the 49ers cut them.

We haven’t seen much from the 49ers offense since Gregg Knapp left, ironically the last time they were good.

The 49ers have a difficult week ahead playing the Eagles in a matchup that could determine their future, both as an organization & as a potential playoff team.
