BABY SPORTS INSTITUTE BOARD

-[]- Breakfast at the U.S. Supreme Court:

No more campaign finance reform. The Supreme Court has ruled.

With good intention, John McCain & Russ Feingold proposed the campaign finance reform to highlight the unfairness in the American political process. Together they had been opposed by the formidable forces: the American pettiness & greeds. Today, 1/21/2010, the McCain Feingold finance reform crusade partially put to rest in favor of the American corporations & special interests.

Simply put it this way: What are the elections for? NOTHING. From now on, these seats would be put up for auction in the supermarkets around this country. Whoever pays the highest prices will get those seats.

Joke: Reform the biscuits. Baby Sports to reform the biscuits for breakfast.

LONG LIVE Sen. John McCain.

** What sequel??

Joke: Baby Sports the adviser

John McCain, the one time maverick, is turning into the complete career politician. What is Baby Sports' advice? Retirement is probably the appropriate word. At the age of 74, John McCain is past a lot of things in life. He should have served best by spending time with his family, watching his children, grandchildren grown up. There is more to life than the office. Running for another term would only serve the media.

-[]- Entertainment:

-<>- Clint Eastwood's "Invictus" on the eve of the 2010 Oscars nominations.

* With due respect, James Cameroon's sci-fi thriller "Avatar" is No.1 at the box office in the $$ term.

* Clint Eastwood's "Invictus" surely has the most profound, long lasting social impact. In life, look at today's Haiti in the earthquake aftermath. In sports, the Saints are going into Super Bowl XLIV combat, carrying the burden of the city of New Orleans once hit hard by Hurricane Katrina a few years ago. Real lives, real people & events. This is why the movie "Invictus" is so appealing. Clint Eastwood's directing was also creative. You will see it, if watched closely.

Question: How many Oscar nominations "Invictus" will receive on 2/2/2010?

a) 4 ; b) 3 ; c) 2 ; d) 1 ; e) None

-<>- Opinion: The making of Hollywood's B-movies. Profit driven.

-<>- 2/2/2010: The 82nd. Annual Academy Awards.

In "Invictus", Morgan Freeman's chance to win the Oscar is GOOD, while Matt Damon needs the curling free kick to upset this field. The oppositions in the "Supporting Actor" category are strong, Christopher Plummer, C. Waltz, Woody Harrelson, Stanley Tucci.

** The gaming entertainment

* Cheaters vs. Cheaters: take a look at Nevada's sports betting business from the technology angle.

At the sportsbook the number represents the team. In Northern Nevada, Reno for example, ALL the casino sportsbooks systematically use the SAME number for the SAME team daily. There gotta be the centralized computer system analyzing all the incoming sports bets on the daily basis. On one hand, the casino sportsbooks cheat. On the other hand, the games are compromised. Are they NOT? That's even up. Who cheats better, quicker wins.

-<>- Earthquake News:

Why the country of Haiti, Western Hemisphere's poorest, is IMPORTANT to the United States' security interests?

Geographically, it's just south of Miami, adjacent to the U.S territory Puerto Rico.

In the South, there are a few things needed to look into:

* Venezuela's Hugo Chavez is extremely unpredictable and has been using Venezuela's oil wells to make Argentina, Brazil flip the fingers at the International Monetary Fund(IMF). How many South American countries will fall into Venezuela's Chavez influence in this decade?

* Sometimes, committing the resources deep into the South American territories to fight civil wars, drugs wars, etc. proven unwise, ineffective.

* The ultimate expansion of the Panama Canal: the increased volume of shipments in this vast sea area. Joke: where are the pirates?

* The increasing presence of the Chinese, Korean commerce in South America. They have been sucking South America's natural resources to feed their growing economies.

-<>- The United States military presence in Haiti is a should be in the next decades. The current earthquake gives the U.S. the golden opportunity to re-build the economy from the ground up & utmostly re-establish the military presence there - the marines, arial & naval bases.

Joke:

The prince arrived in Port Au Prince after years in exile abroad. He spoke to the Haitians crowd on the beach:"I'm the prince. Despite of the recent earthquake, the palace is still there. It's God's plan. I would like to sleep in it". The crowd looked at the others:"You aren't our prince. You are Baby Sports. We read your blog at babysportsinstitute.blogspot.com." The prince turned left and right:"Oh!You guys are saying no to me because I don't have a woman with me. Give me one week. I shall be speaking to you again". The prince returned to America to get married in Nevada's drive thru chapel.

One week later, he spoke to the same crowd, pointing to the half blond, redhead woman next to him:"She would be your first lady". The crowd wondered:"What you got for us?". The prince replied:"I give you the FREE haircut, not taxcut. Since half of the population already BOLD, this promise is achievable". The crowd excited, inquired further:"What else?". The prince became serious:"Give me Haiti. I shall be making Haiti a shinning jewel, with America's military & economic assistance. Forget France. Since the earthquake, France has been intentionally, irrespondsively quite. Fuck France. Hello to the countries that came to aid Haiti in time of need". The prince wondered:"You guys wanna hear more?". He asked suddently:"What time is it?". The crowd:"It's almost 4 pm Pacific time". The prince appeared in a hurry:"I gotta go watch sports. There are a few good games this evening". The crowd yelled:"Get outta here, you Baby Sports".

And so the prince returned to live in exile in America again. A year later, Baby Sports Jr. was born.

The Super Sports Week(February 1-7 2010): The games to watch.

Monday:

* NCAA Basketball:

UConn 69 Louisville 82

UConn(3-6, 13-9 Big East) in the NIT this year?? They gotta make the adjustment in how to play their remaining conference road games: playing the tactical half court to save the energies in the 1st. half & outburst in the 2nd. half. UConn currently in the Big East basement with Big East's 3 stoogges, St. John's, Rutgers & Depaul, respectively.

Louisville improves to 5-4, 14-8 in Big East.

* NHL:

Flyers 3 Flames 0

The hard nose, hard hitting Flyers have been playing into the playoffs contention in the last couple weeks. Beast of the East: If the Flyers make the playoffs, they can match with any team in the East, Penguins, Caps, Bruins, respectively. Look for the Boston Bruins to play the Philly Flyers in a 7 game series this year?

Tuesday:

* NHL R'Wings @ Sharks

Wednesday:

Pitts @ West Virginia ; William & Mary @ Old Dominion ; Wichita State @ UNI ; Miss. State @ Vanderbilt

Sunday:

-[]- Super Bowl XLIV

New Orleans Saints vs. Indianapolis Colts

Quarter by Quarter Breakdown

1st. Quarter

The total combined points moved from 13.5 to 10.5. The significant 3 points dropped. Self explainatory. The play designs of both teams in this 1st. quarter are MOSTLY gonna be 3 & out. Why? Both teams will punt in exchange to make space, room for the TV commercials. A low scoring in the 1st. quarter in the works?

2nd. Quarter

In contrast, the total points increased from 14.5 to 17 points. The game will be open up a bit.

3rd. & 4th. Quarter

The game will be open up. Just play football.

Result:

The city of New Orleans gone wild. 31 - 17 Saints.

The people of New Orleans can forget the daily hardship for a few days.

USA Soccer News:

** Coach Bob Bradley:"We commence the World Cup preparations...".

Commence this, Bob Bradley. In the recent friendly, USA 1 Honduras 3 F.

Under Bob Bradley USA soccer has been going NOWHERE. So far, from the 2009 Confederations Cup tourney to present, USA soccer coach Bob Bradley has been GUILTY for intentionally, knowingly, willingly, oppressing the soccer talent of Freddy Adu, the Ghanian born midfielder/forward who has been benched mostly during Bob Bradley's regime. The Freddy Adu update. This is just one of many examples of the American bully towards not only the forgein born but the Ghanian born soccer players in many ways at different soccer levels in American society. The other is the predicament of Eric Frimpong, the Ghanian born star midfielder of UC-Santa Barbara.

SEE Baby Sports' previous soccer posts, US soccer recap after the 2009 Confederations Cup in Baby Sports Institute below.

Question: What is the best solution regarding USA soccer coach Bob Bradley?

a) Fire the incapable Bob Bradley right now & appoint another coach capable of assembling the best starting XI for the 2010 World Cup South Africa tourney.

b) Reform the U.S. soccer federation from top to bottom.

c) Retain Bob Bradley for the tourney & fire him AFTER the 2010 World Cup.

d) None of the a) & b) above. Soccer business as usual.

e) All of the a) & b) above.

2/8/2010 - USA Soccer News:

The USSF presents the dumb & dumber.

As long as the likes of Sunil Gulati & Bob Bradley in charge, the prospect of a 3 & out - 3 group stage matches & OUT - in the USA World Cup 2010 adventure increases dramatically. Several soccer mistakes from the top, the USSF, to the bottom, the soccer team & related personels, were made, will be made, with regards to the followings:

Mistakes that were made:



Mistakes that would be made:

-<>- The more Landon Donovan enjoys his EPL experience carelessly, ruthlessly, the least he will be ready. With the way things are going, what Landon Donovan will bring to Bob Bradley's squad in June are his tired LEGS, body & mind.

-<>- When Bob Bradley selects his 23 man World Cup roster in May: Instead of fielding the best starting XI, Bob Bradley would pick the incapable players to the satisfaction of the special interests.

-<>- Question: What would occur when team USA soccer, for many reasons, incapable of winning in the square & fair manner at the World Cup stage?

The possibilities are many. Here is one of them: Bribes & kickbacks - using the purchasing power of the US $$ to influence the outcome of an international soccer match in many ways.

Related news: This is one of the fine corruption examples outside the sporting arenas. The point made: this same kind of corruption practices could be in the works at this year's World Cup.

Group C: England ; Slovenia ; USA ; Algeria

English Football News:

Rio Ferdinand to captain England. England manager Capello finally got it right. Congratulations.

_____________________________________________________________________________________
_____________________________________________________________________________________


I love the game of soccer so much. I have always wanted to see the USA soccer succeed at the World Cup stage. Plain and simple, team USA cannot succeed at the WC under Bob Bradley.

If I have a say in this roster selection matter, I will drop the following incapable players before the 23 man World Cup roster finalized:

Jonathan Borntein(Chivas USA) ; Sacha Kljestan(Chivas) ; Brian Ching(Houston)

I would add/insert Kyle Beckerman(Salt Lake) into the USA midfield. His forceful midfield plays are much needed in holding the midfield.

-[]- NBC Sports @ Vancouver Olympics:

In the late 1990s, NBC Sports dropped the NFL bid in favor of the consecutive Winter & Summer Olympics. Canada's western province of B.C is the site of the 2010 Winter Games. At Vancouver Olympics, America's doorsteps, NBC Sports is probably having the worst Olympics in the TV coverage term. This is either their inability to forecast what is ahead, which event should be aired LIVE on the daily Olympic basis, or their refusal to do so for many reasons. The 17th of February is probably America's brightest Olympic moments in recent years. NBC Sports was NOT there to air it coast to coast LIVE. It began with Lindsey Vonn & Julie Mancuso running America to 1st. place in the medal standings. The U.S 1st 1-2 finish in the Alpine skiing since 1984.

So far, this is the best Olympics in terms of unpredictability, great finishes. For whatever reasons, NBC Sports was NOT there to capture those fine moments LIVE.

O, Mad Canada: When given room to skate, the Canadians are very effective on a 4 on 4 situation. The game possession is key. Limit the turnover.

The Fighting Finns: First and foremost, it is strong goaltending. For the underdog Finns to have any chance in the semifinal contest against the powerful, well advanced Canadian team, they gotta mark tight & hit hard, playing the hard noise & disruptive hockey. The Canadians will be coming down on their RIGHT flank which is the Finns' left side. Be prepared & playing within the rules allowed. Limit the Canadian powerplay(PP) to the minimum.
