The match between the two EPL giants was one match that many will awaiting. However it was a sluggish performance put up by Arsenal. They did not shows the teamwork and is not able to score a single goal. But it seems they did went out and try to pick up later on. Chelsea was cautious at the start but when they found the loopholes Arsenal had they went all out and took the opportunity to score. 3-0 was a very thrilling result for Chelsea as it confirmed once again their lead over all the other teams at the premier league. Arsenal was probably not in the right mood as their player Van Persie, who had scored two goals in a victory over Chelsea was not here this time last year. They clearly lacked a cutting edge at the games.

Wireless camera for uploading pictures instantly

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Eye-Fi. All opinions are 100% mine. After every game or outing, I have a store full of treasured moments, because of which I feel I have been on a fruitful trip. Then having been in the showers, there are times where I missed out the downloading into my virtual photo album, only to be reminded when my dearest asked me to in several cases. In these sessions,  I then have to use my card reader and wait for a long time hogging my family's computer, depriving my son of the use to study.

The pain may soon be over with Eye-Fi card to upload and store my photos. It has twice the memory than my existing one with auto backup of my memories and are sorted by date on my computer for easy retrieval from these folders containing my documented photos. My SDHC capable camera and wireless router is all I need and now I may no longer need to bother my dearest with constant reminders and my son can use his computer free of my hogging.

When the news was saying that Manny Pacquiao will be challenging Miguel Cotto for the welterweight boxing title, it has sparked interest in the boxing area again as boxing seems to regain its popularity because of one small man,  the hero of his hometown who has been making history by winning boxing champions around. It was another exciting match that he has put up and the whole match ended at the 12th round when Miguel Cotto took another blow from him and went down. It was not an easy game for him as Manny keep on striking relentlessly and he is not able to take them eventually. Manny has once again won and brought another title home with him. Besides that title, he has brought home joy to his hometown as they watched and celebrated with him. It used to be big guys on stage winning now it is the small man that will lead them all and bring boxing to another level.

The Number 1 man of Liverpool who skipped the match at the Champions League against Lyon said his true feelings about the team mates that he felt a difference with. The first person is Alonso who went over to Real Madrid. He said that they have good midfielders but Alonso is one guy where he can create something out of nothing. Without him, there is really a difference in the standard of team and probably that explains the struggle the reds faced this season. The other person he mentioned was Owen, a team mate when he played together with since 10 in the red of Liverpool. Now he will see him play in the red of rivals Manchester United. Same colour different team this time when he meet old mate Owen.

The new champion Jenson Button may be joining previous champion Lewis Hamilton and forming an all champion Briton McLaren team. If he joins in probably it may be somewhat interesting as two champions are in the same team. Probably both will continue to be competitive probably not but i guess they should be playing their best and now the team will definitely benefit the most, Briton fans have nothing to worry about which team to support if they main thing about the team is about the players.

Tiger Woods has won the PGA player of the year award. Tiger woods has really been in the golf arena for a long time and he is really good at his game that he continues at the top. Of course there are some moments where he was injured and needed a good rest after his knee injury. There were also certain moments where he produced really good strokes that managed to help him clinch the titles. Tiger Woods by far is still the greatest golfer in the World it seems.
