A Sports Crazed Weekend (11-16-14)

I won't say much here since I'm typing this while I'm laying on the couch with my eyes closed, to say I'm tired is an understatement. Last week my editor told me I was going to have an integral part of the schedule for this week and was floored once I realized how serious he was. So here was my schedule for the past four days (pictures are chronological);

Thursday - Dolphins vs Bills
Friday - NASCAR practices/time trials & University of Miami men's basketball
Saturday - FSU vs University of Miami football
Sunday - NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Championship Race
