The 2012 NASCAR K&N Pro Series East championship came down to the last lap of the season and when the smoke cleared at Rockingham Speedway, rookie Kyle Larson won his first NASCAR title. It marks the first NASCAR touring championship for Rev Racing and NASCAR Drive for Diversity.
The 20-year-old Larson, from Elk Grove, Calif., also won the series’ Sunoco Rookie of the Year, joining only Joey Logano and Ryan Truex in the 26-year history of the series to accomplish that feat of earning the championship in their rookie years.
"I've been lucky a lot this year ... and just stayed consistent and got the championship," Larson said. "It feels great. I have to thank the whole Rev Racing team, Toyota and everyone that helps out on this team, and the NASCAR diversity program for giving me this opportunity to run."
Larson will be crowned the 2012 NASCAR K&N Pro Series East champion at the NASCAR Touring Awards on Dec. 10 at in the Crown Ballroom of the Charlott...

Denver Broncos at Cincinnati Bengals: Hero and Zero of the Game

November 04, 2012
In one of the more entertaining games this weekend, the Denver Broncos needed a fourth quarter rally and two touchdowns to hold off a late charge from the Cincinnati Bengals for the win 31-23. The momentum changed side numerous times in this back and forth affair, and in reviewing the game for identifying the "hero" and “zero”, I had plenty of candidates from both teams...

Top 5 Fantasy Football Free Agents
1). Jermaine Gresham CIN TE - 108 receiving yards 0 TD
The thing I like most about Gresham is how frequently he is targeted/used in the Cincinati Bengals offense. For those looking to upgrade their tight end to a more consistent preformer, look no further then Gresham.
2). Mike Goodson, Marcel Reece, or Taiwan Jones OAK RB
As of right now Mike...

The second half is here, and since the Bengals had a chance to change things up, I did the same thing with my picks. I’m changing it up a little bit to prove to (fool) myself that this season is far from over.
