Despite the NFL being by far the most popular sport in United States, the league is feeling a bit of pressure when it comes to technology and their fans. Just about everyone is connected to the internet or television throughout the weekend, which means that the NFL has to come up with new ways to get people off the couch and into the stadium. With new information regarding Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, will the 49ers usher in a new era? A person can be a rabid fan of the NFL who enjoys watching as many games as possible every Sunday. With that being said, in order to watch a lot of games and stay connected, a person needs to be at home or at a bar with a lot of televisions. Levi’s Stadium looks to change that thought process by allowing fans to actually stay connected while watching live football. The plan is to have wireless internet across the stadium, free of charge. Many seats will also have upgrades such as tablet orders on seats, television options and in-house video that pr...

NFL Sunday is here again, this week with the replacement refs back at home and the real ones on the field. Although the official refs' calls will be the subject of much discussion throughout the day and a story on most highlight shows, another topic that will continue to pop up across all sports is the use of instant replay. In this guest post, we hear more from one fan's perspective of using instant replay.

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of PlayStation MOVE . All opinions are 100% mine. I succumbed to the popularity of the Wii two years ago, and although I got into the Wii Fit for a few weeks, the platform never captured my attention, and this was largely due to the lack of intense sports games like Madden and NBA Live. Although these franchises made their way to the Wii, they often came with "Wii enabled" features, which ultimately dumbed down gameplay. So, I've been toying with the idea of replacing my Wii with a PS3 which also gives me an included Blu-Ray player to boot. And if I just happen to get a PlayStation  Move  on top of all that? Well, I'd say "Goodbye Wii, Hello PS3."

As I was completing my Masters in Teaching seven years ago, I was fortunate enough to be the recipient of a scholarship that paid for a significant portion of my graduate school tuition. In exchange, I was to serve as a math or science teacher in a public school for five years. Although there are programs similar to this in many states, those living in Indiana, Michigan, or Ohio have the opportunity to earn $30,000 towards a graduate degree through the Woodrow Wilson Fellowship.

Leaves changing colors, recreational throwing of the pigskin, and for many including this author, an opportunity to tour our lovely country by automobile. For many of us, the 2-6 hour drive to a nearby city, state, or beach side town represents an opportunity get away for the long weekend. Spending time with family, friends, and loved ones is a great escape from our busy lives. Although my wife and I often like to stay at bed and breakfasts, we find ourselves in need of a short stay on the road in many different locales, places where there may not be a 5-star B&B, but plenty of motel/hotel options. Many of these may be considered questionable, but one chain that we do enjoy frequently is the Hampton Inn . 

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of IZEA . All opinions are 100% mine. So, I've always been interested in economics, and finding different ways to make money for the work that I do and the things that I enjoy. You'll notice that I have ads on my site.  However, I'm more interested in learning firsthand how Google AdSense works rather than thinking that I'll earn enough to support an income let alone a sandwich. Thus, I'm curious as to what it would be like to earn money for sponsored posts, so I signed up for an opportunity through SocialSpark .
