1   2008 NFL Season Outlook
The 2008 NFL season is upon us and as always, there is plenty of excitement in almost every NFL city across the country. Every fan is hopeful about their team at the start of the season, but when it comes down to it, the best teams will always end up at the top of the heap. Only 12 teams can make it the playoffs out of 32, so the odds aren't always on your side. But as the Giants showed the world last year: once you're in the playoffs, anything can happen and anybody can win the whole thing and go home as Super Bowl Champion.

2   A Look Around the NBA and '08-'09 Season Outlook
Let's play a game, it's called the NBA head coaching carousel! This off season has been tumultuous in the league, and many teams find themselves with new coaches calling the plays. But there have also been lots of intriguing trades and free agent signings that have shaken up rosters and helped the fortunes of some teams. Last season the league was tied up in the revival of the Boston Celtics and the Los Angeles Lakers, but will be the stories this year?

3   The Opening Ceremony of the 2008 Olympics
When I watched the Opening Ceremony, I was entranced. It began with giant footprints in the sky made of fireworks, leading the way to the stadium. The stadium was built specifically for the Olympics in the shape of a bird's nest, which is considered a lucky symbol in China. It was amazing.

4   The Wild Wild NFC West
It will be a tight division race, coming down to St. Louis or Arizona. The value play is on St. Louis, at 6.50 to 1 odds, to win the division (the pre-season number on Arizona is 3.25 to 1 odds to win the division). The better play here is St. Louis to win OVER 6.5 games. Our scorecasting models have the 2008 Rams winning 9 games; a deviation of 2.5 games from the Vegas total - which correlates to a strong betting line play.

50   Castle Expands Mountain: Deep, Steep and Still Cheap
Castle Mountain is as counter-culture as the roots of snowboarding and a haven of steep and deep. Now, it's blossoming. Just the right mix for a Warren Miller film. This spring the legendary ski and snowboard moviemaker's film crew came to Castle to see what the rumours were about.

68   Divisional Outlook - NL West
Despite being widely ripped as the worst division in baseball in 2005, one facet of the division last year on which everyone agreed was the competitiveness, as nearly every team had a chance to win the division late in the season.

It wasn't too long ago that many NFL players, even starters, felt the need to get or hold a "regular" job during the offseason, and used the time spent in training camp to get into playing shape for the regular season. It also used to be that teams played up to six preseason games as opposed to the current four or maybe five exhibitions.
