My goal with this blog is to write my opinions, breakdown some games, blog during live sporting events, and maybe even do some interviews. It's all about my passion for sports and I want to share that passion with everyone.

Wheldon Killed in Crash at Las Vegas
IndyCar driver Dan Wheldon, 33, died Sunday afternoon from injuries he sustained after being involved in a 15 car crash at Las Vegas Motor Speedway in Las Vegas, Nevada. He was a two-time Indy 500 champion winning in 2005 and again this year. The Las Vegas Indy 300 was canceled and all drivers participated in a five lap tribute in his honor. The 2011 IndyCar season ends tragically. This is the series first death since Paul Dana in 2006 at Homestead-Miami Speedway in Homestead, Florida.
Wheldon is survived by his wife and two young sons.
