Daniel’s Thought Spot

Okay, I am going to be honest with you guys on this one. When i first heard that the NFL wanted players to donate their brains, i though we were going to have a Frankenstein monster on the lose very soon. But then i read into it more and found that giving out your brain might be a good thing in the long run.

Lately, other contact sports (the NFL included) have had their players getting injured a lot, particularly to the head. This is why the researchers at Boston University want NFL players to donate their brains to study. They are trying to figure out if playing the sport gives players any, lasting injuries that they need to worry about.

This plea isn’t just going to current players, retired ones are also being asked to make their sport safer. Some reports claim that Chris Henry’s Brain might be donated after his autopsy is done. But for right now, the players are just being asked to make their sport safer for future generations.

Recently, we heard the news that Bengals wide receiver Chris Henry was involved in a truck accident. Now that the details have been released and the player is now dead, people want to know what happened to the guy who everyone thought had turned his life around.

Today, the Bengals organization held a press release on the subject, they didn’t answer questions, they just talked about he much of a good player Walker was and how he will be missed.

Right now, people are asking what happened the night of the accident. When it was reported that walker in a truck accident, most assumed that he was driving a truck and just got hit by another car. Now though, it is coming out the Walker and his fiancee got into a depute and she drove off, only with him in the bed of the truck. Eventually, he fell out and was sent to the hospital.

And if there isn’t anymore drama, no charges have been filled and the Bengals have a playoff bid to start thinking about. But what ever happens, no one will forget his name on that team again.

Place your bets people, if you think that a hybrid is a slow car that can barely manage to drive on the highway, prepare to have your mind blown away. Made by a tiny start up company called kepler motors, their 800 BHP concept super car is one mean machine.  Powere by a 550 hp ford eco-boost power plant along with a 250hp electric motor, this sleek beast is sure to wow the crowds.

The only downside of this car is that there will be only 50 models produced, and you can bet that each one will come with a hefty price tag to come along with it. But come on, if you even have to think about the price of this thing, you can’t afford one.

If your like me an always have problems waking up in the morning, then you should invest in this guys invention. I’m not sure how safe something like this would be, but i bet the lawsuits would be a lot of fun to hear about.

If you are a person who shelled out money for and iphone, prepared to be jealous. For one European Businessman, the normal look of an iphone just wasn’t good enough.  So to fix this, he went out and spend money to make his iphone something truly special. After all of the work on it was complete, his cell phone is now valued at 3 million dollars.

For that insane price, he had the case remade with 271 grams of 22 carat gold surrounded by 136 flawless diamonds. The navigation button was created from a single 7.1 carat diamond. It took ten months to make but the owner is happy, and thats what really matters right?

Well, their was a time when the viper and the corvette battled constantly for Americas number one sports car. The title swayed between the two until Dodge announced that viper production would be under review, meaning that this might be the vipers final run.

Well even though it saddens me to see another super car possibly bite the dust, Dodge is making sure that this final generation of Viper is one of the best. This Year, Dodge is introducing two new exterior colors, Toxic Orange Pearl Coat and Bright Silver Metallic Clear Coat. Also, the Viper is getting and updated drive line ratio and the ACR version well be receiving a new short throw shifter kit added. Other transmission changes are also expected on all models. The Viper gets a new Brembo 14-inch brake rotors and updated calipers. Also performance wise, the cars 0-200 acceleration has been increased by 14 seconds which is a big improvement.

Lastly, be sue to look out for some special edition cars to roll out of the factory soon. If dodge is ending the viper program. They are sure to churn out some great creations.
