NBC Obtains English Premier League Soccer Rights
The National Broadcasting Company (better known as NBC) will televise the English Premier League's matchups starting next year. The deal is a 3-year, $250 million dollar agreement between the EPL and NBC. Soccer's popularity has grown exponentially in the U.S., and NBC chairman, Mark Lazarus, predicts the Premier League is "on the cusp of exponential popularity growth here in the U.S." If Lazarus is correct on his prediction, NBC struck a perfect deal that could rake in big-buck advertisements. There are going to be six live games televised each week on NBC following the opening of the EPL's next season. Soccer experts around the world believe the EPL is the most talented and most profitable soccer league in the world; Only time will tell whether or not NBC will capitalize on their newly acquired assets.

So some of these posts seem like you've merely cut and pasted some news stories into your blog. You need to be sure that you are developing your own voice/viewpoint on the national issues that you and others are interested in and not just summarize or copy stories just to have something done. Your posts on Trickledown economics and child soldiers come closer to being a good combination of fact and opinion but you need to do more overall.
