Don't Back Down

Darren at ProBlogger has rounded up at least $54,000 worth of prizes - and perhaps as much as $60,000 - and is planning on handing them out to celebrate the week.

All you have to do win is keep an eye on what's happening, and perhaps do a little commenting either on his site or your own (or perhaps both) to let him know that you are watching. Most of the prize giveaways are set up so that if you win one, you can't win another - but there are a few that you can win regardless of what else you've won. In other words, choose your battles wisely - but regardless, you may want to check it out to see what is there!

The Carolina Panthers have now played four games in the 2007 season. Their record stands at a perfectly mediocre two wins and two losses. In the division, they are in second place. While no one harbored expectations that they would win the Super Bowl, or perhaps even make the playoffs, it was generally expected that they would do better.

Within the division, Tampa Bay, predicted by most to be horrible, is in first place, with three wins and one loss. Atlanta has won just a single game and lost three. Not surprising, since they lost Michael Vick after he pleaded guilty to dog fighting charges. New Orleans has yet to win, but have only lost three - they have already had their bye week (what is up with teams getting a bye in the first four weeks?). What does this all mean for the Panthers chances this year?
