Olbermann booted from Current TV as well.

http://content.usatoday.com/communities/entertainment/post/2012/03/current-pulls-the-plug-on-keith-olbermanns-contract/1?csp=hf


Wow first kicked out of MSNBC and now Current TV

Is the problem with Keith, his content, or the way that networks make money from advertisers versus the content commentatiors like Keith want to express.

Does anyone else feel there is an issue with the "many network" model i mean realistically the cable only networks just dont seem to be getting traction for Current/OWN etc that the NBC/CBS etc can the way they were projected to a few years ago.

Louisville Vs Kentucky
Game time - 6.09pm est
Chat URL - http://www.LiveCollegeBasketballChat.com/go/16433

This matchup between the No .1 seeded Kentucky Wildcats and the No. 4 Louisville Cardinals could very well end up being an even better and more heated contest than the final championship game. From 1971 until now, Louisville has won two National Championships and been in eight Final Fours. Kentucky has won three National Championships and been in nine Final Fours.

Will be the game of the night if not the championship.


Ohio State Vs Kansas
Game time - 8.49pm est

Buckeyes Vs Jayhawks is the second game of the night. Jared Sullinger did not play the first time the Buckeyes met up against the Jayhawks this season. Kansas won 78-67, but had Ohio State had Sullinger who knows what the outcome would have looked like.

The Buckeyes had a very clear an effective game plan against the Syracuse Orange: attack them inside.The Big Ten is a tough conference and its teams know how to win tough games. This will be the 14th Final Four appearance for Kansas.

The life of a startup

Great article, love the OMGPOP and the Pandora examples.

Determination is critical to success as overnight successes actually take years to build; indeed, “overnight successes” are a myth.

Especially seeing its a Saturday and I'm sitting here designing email templates.

Game of the round
Kansas Vs North Carolina State - Game time 10.17pm est Friday March 23

North Carolina State is fresh off upsetting the three-seeded Georgetown in the round of 32. They came back from a 10-point deficit at halftime to squeak by and win the game by just three points. And the N.C. State Wolf Pack might just have another upset victory in them.

Drivers to watch
Kyle Busch is the Bristol Master since the new progressive banking configuration changes in 2007 winning 4 of the past 6 races including last year.

However keep an eye out for Jimmie Johnson who needs to make up the ugly 25 point penalty. Johnson has been a contender here in the past winning 5 times including 2010.

Driving for a living....
Brian Vickers will race for the first time this season at Bristol Motor Speedway, and believes he's got nothing to lose and nothing to prove.

"I just want to go racing. Honestly, what's the worst that can happen? I'm not going to have a job?'' Vickers said Friday at Bristol. "For me, it's just go out there and have fun and just enjoy the experience. I've been through this a couple times now where I don't know if I'm going to race again".

I tell you it must be a tough way to make a living - i've been reading the personal facebook pages of a few up and coming drivers this week and they all seem to say raising the sponsorship money is the toughest part of the gig.

Live F1 Chat returns for season 2012

Its time to banish the kids from the living room this Sunday and get back into F1 racing.


Melbourne is such a great location to start off the F1 season though its a shame the start time for the race is Sunday the 18th at 5pm Melbourne local time which unfortunately means a 2am start time here on the east coast USA at http://www.livefanchat.com/ headquarters.

New rules new creativity
F1 has always been seen as the pinnacle of motor racing engineering with ideas and features filtering down to regular cars over the years eg. ABS etc. However this off season even i smiled at the incredible genius of F1 designers

http://www.nytimes.com/2012/03/17/sports/autoracing/17iht-srf1rules17.html
..... teams nonetheless found another way of overcoming the lack of downforce in the rear, creating an equally ingenious system that blew exhaust gases out over the rear diffuser to create extra downforce.


The engines could blow fumes out from the exhaust pipe even when the driver was not putting his foot on the gas pedal — when, for example, the car was traveling through corners where the extra downforce was highly beneficial. The method included a computer-controlled system that programmed the engine to shoot out the exhaust at the desired moment.


This year, the blown diffuser has been banned, although teams are again fighting to find ways around the rule. “Teams will not unlearn the knowledge they have gained, and it is quite likely this area of regulation will need to be revisited again in 2013,” said Charlie Whiting, the F.I.A.’s technical chief.

Makes me wonder when we'll see active vacuum that was used on the Mclaren F1 filter down to regular chevy/bmw road cars.


The return of Räikkönen
Kimi Räikkönen is taking a leaf from Schumacher's book – a former champion (with Ferrari in 2007) returning after a sabbatical – and insists his motivation has always been strong, even if things haven't necessarily always looked that way. Will be interesting to see how competitive he is at Lotus.
