NASCAR made its annual return to Indianapolis and all three of the sport’s top circuits delivered exciting action from the opening laps to the final crossing of the finish line. And, this thrilling on-track drama played out across two different tracks. On Friday night, the Craftsman Truck Series returned to racing after a three-week hiatus. However, instead of competing at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway (IMS) like the Cup Series and Xfinity Series cars did, the Trucks took to the short track of Lucas Oil Indianapolis Raceway Park (IRP). Despite it being nearly one-quarter of the lap distance, IRP was the perfect backdrop for a Truck Series return as the race provided fans with plenty of excitement until the checkered flag

The Rams are the reigning NFC West champions but the 49ers hold the record for the most division titles with 22.

UFC on ABC 9, as it turns out, was not an easy card to predict. There were several fighters who were not only favored – but seemed to have serious stylistic advantages – and still faltered. And horribly so. Naturally, that led to some less than ideal UFC picks, but I can say I did nail some upsets to keep Saturday’s affair from being a total bust. It also was a very explosive event. That was something I fully expected coming in, only with different results. So, what went down at UFC on ABC 9? I’ll go through all of the UFC results and clue you in on who won, how they did it, and which performances stood out the
