The Mentality of doing it and loving while doing it surely has a big impact on someone's performance so maybe you are correct I tried to think of how Verstappen was doing all this well it is because he truly loved the sports, from childhood, you can really see his interest in driving a car and additional to this his loving parent supported him to this is 100% you can surely see that at a young age his interest with racing just grew, and not only him Lando Norris also is getting there with a good setting on his Car,




For sure they are thinking about this, if they just let Carlos Sainz lose and just put a random driver in there is no difference in getting Sainz out, Maybe they are briefing about this on who will be the next to drive for Ferrari, Now that Charles Leclerc has his big deal of a contract for Ferrari Carlos Sainz is real pressure to perform until the 2023 ends, there is IndyCar frontrunner Alex Palou, Felipe Drugovich the F2 championship winner last year, or RedBull Junior Liam Lawson, if Ferrari could snatch him on RedBull,

Dang! I missed all 4 games because I fell asleep early yesterday I totally missed all of the games today for sure that Connecticut Sun VS New York Liberty was a real banger of the fight and I will surely lose that game because I am going with the Connecticut Sun, Surely DeWanna Bonner did a great job in getting 30 points for this game but it wasn't enough because the New York Liberty had a great spread for this game,

---

So here is my bet and prediction for the game today,

Atlanta Dream VS Los Angeles Sparks

The stake odds for this game are 2.00 for the Dream and 1.73 for the Sparks, right now Nia Coffey is out for this season Allisha Gray is doubtful if she can play for this game while Katie Lou Samuelson is out for this season, and Nia Clouden, Lexie Brown, and Chiney Ogwumike can not play for the Los Angeles Sparks, for this game Last game for this two teams was a close one, but surely it was a win for the Los Angeles Sparks, while the recent 2 games was a win for the Atlanta Dream, for this game the Los Angeles Sparks is the favorite to win but for me I think this will be the other way around, if Rhyne Howard will let lose on this game and fired up this is a win for the Dream so my pick is the Atlanta Dream,

For sure the Level of The Korean Zombie is not worth it with the likes of Arnold Allen, Yair Rodríguez, and Calvin Kattar in my opinion so this is pretty much that is why Max Holloway got the Odds in this fight for me this is just my opinion this fight could go the distance but I will not be surprised if Max Holloway will win Via KO/TKO,

I likely want to see Marlon Vera first which is why I like the suggestion of O'Malley that he wants Marlon "Chito" Vera to fight 1st so we can see who is the better striker for sure Sean O'Malley will have a great fight against Marlon Vera but Chito Vera has good defense so this is truly what I also want to see,


Wrestling became a new norm in the UFC when Royce Gracie became very dominant with it, but it became more popular when fighters began adapting to it with a mix of striking and wrestling, and then the Dagestan guys dominated all wrestling even Jui Jitsu, which is why there are many newcomers for MMA that are mixing their game with both and Dagestan become a very popular and a dominating force in it, 


I also like this fight, for sure This is really an interesting fight Erin Blanchfield is a great grappler who in her every fight keeps on getting better and Alexa Grasso is an evolving and adjusting fighter in every fight she gets in, for sure This is an interesting watch and I would love to see that happen,

Yup! For sure Chot Reyes's strategy is that Jordan Clarkson will be their ultimate weapon against the Dominican Republic and for sure this is Kai Sotto's chance to showcase his skills and what he can do against the Dominican Republic and against Karl-Anthony Towns because if he can stop Towns with his blocking that will be a gold performance for him and it is likely a chance for him getting into an NBA team,


Well, I already consumed all of my leave sad to say so even though I already got a ticket I already sold it because I can not make it to the game later, I think the 1st game Angola VS Italy has already started for sure right now Italy is n the Lead, well after this 8:00 PM Philippine time will be the start of the Dominican Republic VS Philippines game both of that game will be on the Philippine Arena while Mexico VS Montenegro will be at 4:45 PM and Egypt VS Lithuania and it will be on 8:30 PM Philippine Standard Time and will be at Mall of Asia Arena,


Nice share man! thanks to this I can watch them even if I am at the office thanks this will be so helpful for me because I am seeing the live score just online so this will be helpful indeed, if I have a merit I can surely give you 1 but I already consume it,

For sure Jordin Canada needs to improve herself if not get her team with points she needs to excel in a different way, and she is 2018 drafted so sure she needs this kind of improvement so she can have her worth with the team, and for them to win and stopping the Phoenix Mercury for sure and it was a very one-sided one,

---

Here are the results of my bet and prediction for today's game

Los Angeles Sparks VS Phoenix Mercury SCORE 91 - 62 - WIN

For sure it was a one-sided game for the Los Angeles Sparks they got 30 points that easily from this game in the 1st quarter half the score of the Phoenix Mercury and as I have said Brittney Griner didn't play and even Diana Taurasi that has a toe injury, Jordin Canada and Zia Cooke both got 11 points, but surely Canada got most of the Assist Karlie Samuelson got 15 points and Azura Steven got 20 points, winning a very dominant game,

For me The Korean Zombie's chin has left the building and he is never the same like before where he can withstand a beating that is why he got his nickname Zombie, right now his chin has depleted it's purpose to withstands any blow so for sure Max Holloway will be very much to be the favorite for this fight that is for sure, well because the Korean Zombie's chin is never like the same as before,


Well, just like you I kinda agree that the only option for Korean Zombie to win here is for Max Holloway to get injured or maybe a doctor Stoppage, this is the only way the Korean Zombie may got a way of winning because he can not rely on his chin anymore that means he needs to adjust big time against Max Holloway, for sure in order to win,


If the USADA will not get his compliance then they likely wouldn't give Conor McGregor a fight for sure but maybe the UFC will give him a special treatment just like before but for this I wouldn't expect McGregor to get a fight on December,

It seems like Henry Cejudo wants something from exposing the DM's to the public, it looks like to me that Henry Cejudo wants to say hey look at me the champion Aljamain Sterling is looking for some advice from me, Cejudo didn't really need to get it publicly because it could be a never for him for exposing that but it is what it is for me I want to see Marlon Vera VS Sean O'Malley next striker vs striker would be a great fun fight to watch in my opinion,

Actually I really think Sterling knows his game plan but that have crumbled when the crowd booed him the crowd doesn't want Sterling that is why he said in the interview that he wants to shifted his gear and wants to be great in his one, his game plan dropped on the side and goes to O'Malley trying to catch him and becomes aggressive in that fight that O'Malley have caught him it was really Aljamain Sterling fault he underestimate O'Malley and was affected by the crowd that cost him his lost,

Here is the next event for the UFC and it is UFC Fight Night: Holloway vs. Korean Zombie so the new comers for this thread will see,

This could be solved if the players and the management aren't too stubborn enough to accept the small changes that some NBA players suggest, I think some NBA players are getting from their salary to compensate for the revenue needed for the WNBA to continue and they are too stubborn to accept the fact, but surely they will eventually realize this when it is already too late,

I do not wishing the WNBA to go or end, I just wish they would just listen and implement it 1st before saying something that may hurt their ego a bit,


I have taken my break for a while and need to get an early sleep because it is the 1st day of school for my son, and he is too excited about getting back to school, I totally missed all 4 games but I am now back and ready to bet again

---

So we are having 1 game today and here is my bet and prediction for the game today on the WNBA,

Los Angeles Sparks VS Phoenix Mercury

The stake odds for this game are 1.14 for the Sparks and 4.90 for the Mercury, For the game today Nia Clouden, Lexie Brown, and Chiney Ogwumike all can not play for the Sparks, and Katie Lou Samuelson are out for this season, while Diana Taurasi is doubtful if she can play for the Mercury and Skylar Diggins-Smith, Shey Peddy, and Brittney Griner are all not going to play for the Mercury, for this game, it is pretty much well known that Britney Griner is a literal big asset for the Phoenix Mercury, and the only one that can dunk on the team so their defense is pretty much crucial for this game so my pick and bet for this game is the Los Angeles Sparks,

What I mean about a special car was a F1 machine that is provided by the Olympics it self and not by the team or country that will have their drivers on buy for sure we likely don't know the rules yet on the upcoming F1 race for the Olympics so I am just speculating things if the car will be provided by the Olympics and not the team it self but because that would be too expensive I really don't know what will they do, but I think the Organizer are already looking at this and will be having a conclusion whether they would put the F1 to the Olympics or not,


This is a great opportunity for Max Verstappen getting this record and in his home soil surely he would be very motivated about this because this is his home turf for sure he will do his best like a Max Verstappen always do, the Flying Dutchman is at it again in another record target for sure,


For sure this will be investigated by the FIA, and the management everyteam have a budget cap available for them so they need to comply, about this but yeah maybe the engine was at fault but let's wait on further investigation,

For me it will be boring if you don't want Max Verstappen to win again, but for sure Max Will be on the top again, but what I interest me is if the other teams will make it on the 2nd place or  who's making it to the podium is it Sergio Perez or McLaren again,

For Sure Umar Nurmagmedov is a truly great fighter I also want to see him in a title shot aswell but that is if O'Malley is still champion that time, but for sure I want to see Umar Nurmagomedov in that kind of spotlight getting the Belt against the Champion that will be a true highlight of a fight aswell but for now I think that O'Malley will be fighting Marlon Vera, or a rematched against Sterling,


You have heard it right Sean O'Malley wants to settle the score against Marlon Vera against his recent lost to him that Perenial Nerve lock of Marlon Vera that injured Sean O'Malley, because O'Malley keeps on saying that is not his lost but because of an injury only, Well Marlon Vera already explained that he is aware that back kick to the knee would cost O'Malley to stumble and locking his perinial Nerve Vera elaborately cost that injury on Sean O'Malley,


The recent form of the Korean Zombie right now is very different than with his past style for sure this is going to be a technical fight and will be a good one but Holloway will have a advantage with the boxing here and the Zombie needs something very different here if he wants to win this fight,

I am surely interested with the progress of the Philippine basketball team and well not because I am a Filipino and surely it is common in supporting the team in your said country right, but surely I am also interested with the other countries aswell for sure they will make a progress in making them play without Jordan Clarkson against the other teams this is to really ready the teams without Jordan Clarkson, or either Kai Sotto, definitely the FIBA stage will be a great platform for this Basketball  players to showcase what they can really do,


Yup! Karl-Anthony Towns is now at Manila Philippines readying and training himself for the upcoming FIBA for sure KAT is one of the Crucial players for the Timberwolves and one of the All-stars in the NBA along Jordan Clarkson, for sure the match for the Dominican Republic VS Philippines will be a heated battle and a great game to watch,


For sure Chot Reyes is up to something in every game, he always has a say on who's going to play or not even though some fans doesn't like what he is doing even though he is always doing something for the team, well you can not always please anyone but in my take Chot Reyes is surely a good one, he surely is preserving Jordan Clarkson and not letting him play on the tune-up games,


Yes! the start of the game for the FIBA will be on Friday PST and as I would like to watch the game live, I can't because I have a work to do so pretty much I will be busy on that time, but surely that game will be broadcast nationwide so will be watching it on the comfort of my home,

I really can not blame you if you looked at Marlon Vera as a boring fighter because of his style, because at the beginning of every fight he has, he is looking for an opening and how he will get into his opponent 1st, there will be less engagement towards him, that is why Marlon Vera is one of the boring fighters on the UFC, but as I am saying in my recent post that I like Marlon Vera for sure his style is more technical than O'Malley and forme seeing his style against Pedro Munhoz he got a great defense with the punches and every time Pedro would punch Chito will Parry it then counter, and his fight with Pedro Munhoz, in my opinion, is one of the best there is although those kicks from Munhoz Chito is not checking them as a fighter that utilizes kicks he should know how to defend those kicks aswell but I got my theory about it he can not check punches and kicks at the same time, which is he is still adjusting,

I guess you are a fan of O'Malley well I have seen a hilarious video commercial of him of Timex here it is
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/7L_vAKrFc3s

And a Hilarious Spinning deadly move from O'Malley against Pedro Munhoz,
https://youtube.com/shorts/Tl7urfQChkQ?feature=share

And lastly his insane training video
https://youtube.com/shorts/qGlbtGAB5hE?feature=share

Now I know why you love Sean O'Malley so much, but kidding aside Henry Cejudo predicted that Sean O'Malley will counter Aljomain Sterling and he also give some advice to Aljo before the fight but Sterling didn't follow his instructions because for sure Aljomain Sterling got that ego he is thinking that I defeated Cejudo why would I believe in him, so Aljo Lost in that fight, and Henry Cejudo also think Chito Vera is a boring fighter but against O'Maley he is predicting that Marlon Chito Vera will win that fight, O'Malley wanted a rematched against Marlon Vera so for sure the UFC will give him that here is the video

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N2gY1jt7SNQ

Actually this is great about MMA than with Boxing if though the gloves is not that thick in the MMA the rules on Stoppage is to prevent a fighter from further damage even though sometimes it become an early stoppage the referee is there to keep the fighters safe, for sure so yeah Aljamain Sterling and most fighters are thankful for the Refs that doing their job properly, for sure that is the big difference on Boing and the MMA,

Well Sean O'Malley surely got an unfinished business against Marlon Vera, and he wants to settle the score once and for all because this is the lost that O'Malley didn't recognized back then he still thinks that Vera only won because he got injured which is likely not his fault that he gets injured, for sure because O'Malley is the champion now he surely have the right to pick his opponent next,


He admits what have happen for sure he also said that O'Malley get up there and showed that he is the champion, actually Sterling was really shocked on the performance of O'Malley setting up the hand setting up the fakes, misdirecting most of his strikes so Sterling can not read what he is after,


For me because he is not Champion he can get what he wants I think he can get Marlon Chito Vera 1st before anything else because that lost from him he can not accept it,

And even though I bet on Ian Machado Garry, I really don't like what he did to Neil Magny that kind of Disrespecting Neil Magny, for sure what Neil Magny was trying to say is he will disciplined Ian Garry just like how he discipline his sons, and whooping his ass inside the octagon, what I think Neil Magny is saying here, but for sure Iam McGregor Wannabe is making some different statement on what really Neil is saying, that is why I don't like Garry at all,

They surely have their priorities, instead of representing their country they surely aim for the Salary, well we can judge them if they want to pursue only to play for the NBA game, but for sure sometimes even if they want to play for the Olympics, or the FIBA their management on that team wouldn't allow them because of injuries, or sometimes in the case of Jamal Murray and Nikola Jokic they will not be playing because they are still resting from the recent NBA championship,


Well, salute to those teams that doesn't have any NBA players but are still on the top of the Fiba league, well the Philippines got one and that is Jordan Clarkson but with the tune-up games Chot Reyes the coach for the Philippine team decided not to let Clarkson play I guess this is to familiarised other players on the other teams without relying on Jordan Clarkson, that much, which is a great thing for sure,


I think this is because it is only a tune-up game so there is no need to broadcast it, as for sure if they did other teams would rather have some idea on what is the streght of the other teams which is not a great idea for sure so for me it is OK if the tune-up games is not live stream, but there are people that are posting their live video of the game in Youtube so there are still ways in watching the tune-up games for FIBA,

For sure there is no stopping people from getting a clip people are surely great at finding ways in getting their hands on some clips that are still prohibited outside but surely there are people that are pretty much good at hacking things so there is that maybe they will normalize a live broadcast online and make it profitable with advertisers because PPV might surely meet it entire demise in the near future for sure

Speaking of the Marlon Vera VS Perdo Munhoz fight surely many didn't see what really happen in the fight between Chito Vera VS Munhoz because Joe Rogan and Daniel Cormier kept on seeing false punches from Pedro Munhoz that Marlon Vera didn't feel at all, and those Commentators are one-sided and not seeing what is really happening inside the octagon Marlon Chito Vera has a great defense he keeps on parrying punches of Munhoz but you can not see it because it is subtle, and those commentators are just noticing Pedro Munhoz and what is Munhoz was doing so many believe that it was a robbery because Marlon Vera really won that fight

I have seen that on the news surely because of the grueling game in the NBA championship both Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray can not play for the FIBA I guess the Denver Nuggets also prohibited them from playing aswell so that was it for sure Jamal Murray will not play for Canada and Nikola Jokic is not playing for Serbia,


For me, Rhenz Abando is an upgrade over Kiefer Ravena, well for sure Rhenz Abando is new to the Philippine team so he needs to be ready and practice now because in 1 more day the Philippines will be having their 1st game against the Dominican Republic which will be on August 25, so it is really an interesting game for sure but surely Rhenz Abando would need to practice now for their chemistry to be up and ready,


The final score was 84 - 77 and it was a Mexico win, but Jordan Clarkson didn't play in this game while Mexico are all shooters for sure Kai Sotto did play and Ray Parks did not again so he is out in the Philippines team, for sure the final 12 for the Philippines is still not determined yet but it will after the 1st real game starts

And breaking news now Karl Anthony Towns and the Dominican Republic are in the Philippines now so they can rest for a bit and then practice for the game that will be on Philippine Arena Bocaue Bulacan on August 25,

For sure they are already good last season so for them to make a great comeback this season is not really surprising they know what they lack and all they need to do is to make some adjustments on that part surely they have many new players and they have also put some efforts in making their defenses good aswell, so yeah Union Berlin also got some improve players Kevin Behrens and Milos Pantovic got a great game against Mainz,


Well, Leipzig in the last season didn't also have a good start it is like they are adjusting to every team that they face, and they still are making their adjustments for further enhancing the team with their play, for me just like in the last season they got a bad take on the start then on the middle of the season they just manage to winning all of their games but for me I think the 1st couple of matches will be like this then they will eventually manage to get their chemistry and turn the tables on the other teams,


Well, it is a close game after all, and for sure Leverkusen has evolved from being a 6th seed to getting high hopes on them right now with Xabi Alonso as their coach they can manage to make upset the other teams, I just didn't recognize yet that they will be winning against Leipzig well I haven't made my bet for now I am just getting the feel on the teams first and looking at their performance for now before breaking down my bets maybe after 2 matchday,

I was really surprised by what have happen and I admit that I don't like O'Malley and I don't like him to win this match but surely he got pretty much good from his previous fights for sure and in this fight, he really made it too easy for sure and I really don't like that because O'Malley has stopped the takedowns of Aljamain Sterling in this fight that means all takedowns is now voided it was shocking that there is something that is not right in this fight as it looks like Aljomain Sterling is now giving Merab Dvalishvili an opportunity to beat Sean O'Malley because his friend doesn't want to fight him he is giving the fight to him, just my theory and as many said the fight looks to easy,


For me, it looks like an early stoppage but for sure it was a good one and the referees are just doing their job for sure, so it is a good stoppage in my opinion, this is the difference in boxing where the referee will save the fighter early if necessarily so no further damage or a serious concussion is prevented,

It was really a long break but for sure every team is aware of the break and all teams needed this break for sure they will have time to upgrade their machines, make preparations, practice the track, and to surely rest so drivers can be at their 100% focus when they make their race, but the long wait is surely over and this week we are going to the Netherlands the Dutch Grand Prix and for sure Max Verstappen will surely perform his all in this race because this is his home turf,


For sure the F1 teams have their own cap on how much they can spend this season and aside from that they can not go further that is why they need to consider saving a lot until they reached the final race for this season, for sure Red Bull have already outsmarted their way in the league and outsmarted the entire F1 Grid, for sure there is a lot that is anticipating the return of the F1 race again,

It could become a perfect bet if the Minnesota Lynx won the game but surely Jewell Loyd has prevented this to happen so for sure if Jewell Loyd would be playing the game I will surely think twice first for sure, but it is what it is and it surely happens,

For sure your family comes first for sure, before anything else, and there are still a bunch of games for us to bet on, for sure,

---

The Result for my bets for the WNBA games now,

Chicago Sky VS Connecticut Sun SCORE 73 - 79  - WIN

It was a close game indeed Chicago nearly win but for sure the Connecticut Sun didn't allow that to happen for sure, the Chicago Sky got Kahleah Copper, Elizabeth Williams, Marina Mabrey, and Courtney Williams really did great in this game sure but the Connecticut Sun didn't allow it to happen, Tiffany Hayes got 12 points, Natisha Heidman and DeWanna Bonner both got 13 points and Alyssa Thomas got 22 points leading the game

Phoenix Mercury VS Indiana Fever SCORE 73 - 83  - WIN

Another close game but the Indiana Fever got the edge in the 1st half of the game then the Phoenix Mercury nearly got their rhythm back in the 3rd quarter but they had no success on it and the Indiana Fever got the game in the finals time of the game, leading for sure, Sophie Cunningham and Megan Gustafson did their best but it was the effort of Kelsey Mitchell's 28 points and NaLyssa Smith's double-double of 11 rebounds and 25 points that gotten the game into the conclusion,

Minnesota Lynx VS Seattle Storm SCORE 74 - 88 - LOST

Still, a close game but the Seattle Storm really did great in this game for sure I thought that the Minnesota Lynx would win this game but Jewell Loyd prevented it from happening, for this game the Lynx have done their all but surely Sami Whitcomb's 10 points Ezi Magbegor's 12 points and Dulcy Fankam Mendijiadeu's 12 rebounds have made the Seattle Storm to the top with Jewell Loyd's tremendous score of 31 points to secure the win,
