Hines Ward
The half Korean, half African American wide receiver Hines Ward is no stranger to adversity. Born in Korea and eventually coming to the states to play college football for the University of Georgia, Hines Ward has had to deal with a lot of stuff. But, it’s not what you …
Chicago Bears Preseason
A couple years ago, you could look at Chicago Bears’ coach Lovie Smith and say his job was secure. After all, he took the team to a Super Bowl.
Today, heading into the NFL training camps, I look at his job as being a bit more on shaky ground. This …
Sachin Tendulkar
Sachin Tendulkar is considered as best batsman of recent time. He averages more then 60 in test matches and around 45 in one day international. He has already had most of the record under his name and the one, that are not under his name are not very far …
Quincy Douby
Quincy Douby, the one year guard out of Rutgers University, will no doubt make a name for himself in this league. I’ve seen the kid play. There have only been a few guards I’ve seen in the past decade that can do what he does. He can run the …
Ken Whisenhunt
The Arizona Cardinals finished eight and eight season with newly acquired head coach Ken Whisenhunt. Firing Dennis Green last year, the Cardinals needed a coach with both a mind for the game and a flare for offensive production. Though it’s usually the defense of a team that wins ball …
Scottie Pippen
Scottie Pippen was one of my favorite NBA players of all time. Not because he was Michael Jordan’s sidekick but also he was one of the most versatile players of the game. Pippen is long and plays with such smarts that he was the ultimate complimentary player to a …
Matt Millen
As a die-hard Packers fan, I believe the best thing the Detroit Lions can do for my team is keep Matt Millen as their general manager.
I mean, how does that guy keep his job? All Millen has done as GM is waste first round picks on players who don’t …
Brad Miller
Brad Miller the hulking seven foot center for the Sacramento Kings who can shoot from the perimeter is your atypical NBA pivot. Miller went undrafted when entered the league and was signed by the Chicago Bulls as a back-up big-man. After given the chance to prove his worth, Miller …
Travis Diener
Travis Diener was given a chance in the NBA by the Orlando Magic. He was signed after going un-drafted in the ‘05 draft. And with the chance that the Magic gave to him, he re-paid them by going into games and contributing with his three point shooting.
Although it …
Nate Burleson
With Randy Moss on the roster, it wasn’t as if Minnesota needed another potentially explosive receiver, but they drafted one in Burleson. Last season, the ‘02 NCAA receptions leader started nine games and piled up the fifth-most receiving yards ever by a Vikings rookie. “Nate just gets better,” the …
Chris Duhon
Chris Duhon of the Chicago Bulls was a very good collegiate player while playing for the Duke Blue Divel’s. He was a high intensity defensive player who can stop almost anybody. When he went to the NBA he brought along those same traits into the league and has developed …
DeSean Jackson
The DeSean Jackson is a young star receiver for the Philadelphia Eagles of the National Football League. DeSean Jackson was drafted by the Eagles out of the University of California in the second round of the 2008 NFL Draft. In my opinion, he had the talent to be at …
Kurt Thomas
Kurt Thomas of the Seattle Supersonics is one of the classiest guys you will ever see in the NBA. He is one of the NBA’s version of a gentleman. The Sonics acquired him after stints with the Miami Heat, New York Knicks and the Phoenix Suns. The Suns decided …
Lee Evans
The first of two first round draft picks from the Buffalo Bills, Lee Evans turned out to be just what the team needed. A lack of speed and depth at the wide receiver position prompted the front office to go out and pick up some talent. For this, they …
Brooks Bollinger
This coming weekend, Vikings Quarterback Brooks Bollinger may get yet another chance to start in the NFL. But, like his previous times starting, it is more because of injuries than him actually earning a job.
Bollinger was a great quarterback for the Wisconsin Badgers. But, his game is better suited …
Koren Robinson
Koren Robinson is an NFL player with a lot of talent who basically ruined his career by letting demons take over.
Playing for the Packers this year, I saw how Robinson can help a team both by returning kicks and providing them with a dependable deep threat receiver. However, throughout …
Luis Scola
The second oldest rookie in the NBA this year, Luis Scola who was drafted originally by the San Antonio Spurs and is now playing for the Houston Rockets after a summer trade that sent him there is probably a hidden gem. My prediction will be that the Spurs will …
Jared Jeffries
Another player that Coach and General Manager of the New York Knicks signed to a stupid and bloated contract is forward Jared Jeffries. Mind you i think he is a very good player if he was given enough training and discipline by the Knicks organization. While playing for the …
Jewel Bait Company Squirrel Head
The squirrel head is a brand new shakey head jig offering from Jewel bait company. The squirrel head was designed by Jeff Kriet, a B.A.S.S. pro and member of the Jewel pro staff. This shakey head jig is designed after the sought after molds of Jeff Kriet’s …
2007 Seattle Seahawks
A couple of years ago, the Seattle Seahawks were the team to beat in the NFC. This year, they are still a decent team, but not one that is going to make it far in the playoffs.
The team got a tough win against the Bears this past weekend, which …
Tennis Racket babolat
The babolat aero tour tennis racket which combines the aero technology and the traditional power of babolat rackets is for me, the ultimate racket for creating head speed. To add more UMPH.. in your swing. I’ve used this since last year when i demoed one after purchasing a used …
Cleveland Browns Preseason
I’m old enough to remember the controversy created when the Browns left Cleveland and became the Baltimore Ravens and the decision by the NFL to bring an expansion team to that city as a way to compromise.
Today, I wonder why they even bothered.
The Browns haven’t been in the playoffs …
Wrestler: Candice Michelle
Candice Michelle is a gorgeous woman and easily one of the most beautiful women you will see in World Wrestling Entertainment, but can she wrestle? The answer is no. I have personally watched her since her debut, and why she is obviously training and improving week in and week …
The Matthews Final on DVD
To the older English football fan the most famous FA Cup Final ever is probably what became to be known as the Matthews Final, except possibly the one in 1923 at Wembley when a mounted policeman on a white horse ushered the overspill crowds off the pitch so that …
Andre Agassi
Who can forget the great Andre Agassi.He has seen it all success to failure,flamboyance to professionalism metamorphosis from a “I don’t care attitude to one of “I am a role model now”.His life has been a big roller coaster ride but in the end he has come out unscathed …
COLEMAN KING SIZE SLEEPING BAG
A sleeping bag that is really big enough to feel comfortable for large or small people is an important sport’s item! The Issaquah, 25 degree farenheit sleeping bag is just this, and is really warm and cozy.
This sleeping bag has a diamond ripstop cover, and a 100% cotton flannel …
Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics - Speed Skating - Women’s 1500m
The Women’s1500 meter event of Speed Skating competition during the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympic games was stellar and full of excitement. As an American, I’d like to say we were in the thick of the hunt, but this isn’t our event. Still, the thrill of the Olympics …
Epicski Academy Ski Camp
Ski instruction for the people by the people. That’s what the Epicski Academy Ski Camp is about. It was created by a meeting of the minds on the ski forum, epicski.com. Throughout the year, you get to chat with some of the top pros in the country about ski …
2008 Chicago Bears
Two years ago, the Chicago Bears were the team to beat in the NFC and were good enough to win a Super Bowl (though they ended up losing it).
This year, I really can’t see this team being anything more than a bottom feeder in the NFL.
I don’t even know …
Babolat Aeropro Tennis Racquet
I started playing tennis about 2 years ago. I started out playing with an NCODE 6.1 95 Wilson. This tennis racquet did not fit me so I search for a more lenient tennis racquet. I searched online, but did not know what to buy due to my lack of …
Arizona Cardinals Preseason
Last year, the Arizona Cardinals surprised the league by winning the NFC Conference and advancing to the Super Bowl. They even came close to beating the Steelers to win it all.
Heading into this season, they obviously are going to be optimistic. But, they have several things working against them; …
Wrestler: Allison Danger
Alison Danger is a new discovery for myself personally. Over here in the United Kingdom we have a channel called ‘TWC Fight!’ which showcases Professional Wrestling and Mixed Martial Arts. On a British Wrestling show she fought a local British Wrestler and won, it was then announced that she …
Vernand Morency
When the Packers traded last year’s star, Samkon Gado for Vernand Morency, my first thought was “who.” But, after seeing him play Monday night, I do think they got the better end of that trade.
Gado has potential to be a star in the right system. However, during preseason and …
Wrestler: Barry Windham
Barry Windham was one of the first people I saw when I first watched Professional Wrestling as a child. He was a heel at the time, so naturally I took a disliking to him as you do when your that age, but as I grew older I started to …
Yonex Badminton Racket
I am not happy with this one. This is going to be another dust accumulator in my home. Had it for two months and used it twice a week from the time I bought it. I thought that by buying something expensive from a trusted brand would be good. …
Reggie Evans
Denver Nuggets forward Reggie Evans who recently signed a new five year deal with Denver is pure energy personified. He doesn’t posses much of a offensive skills, neither does he posses a GQ type of face but what makes Evans a valuable NBA player is his hustle and …
2010 NASCAR Nationwide Sam’s Town 300 race
The 2010 NASCAR Nationwide Sam’s Town 300 race just didn’t hold my interest today while it was on. The event was rain delayed for about 90 minutes, and it was a dreary day here as well, so maybe that had some subliminal effect on my reaction.
It could be …
Nelson Hot Spot Paintballs
When it comes to accuracy, it doesn’t get that much better than these paintballs. They’re really quite accurate and I think that this may be the reason how they have recieved their name. They’re excellent for accuracy and great for snap shooting. The paintballs are really cheap for the …
Jameer Nelson (Orlando Magic)
Court General for the Orlando Magic, Jameer Nelson should be a valuable piece in the magic’s quest for the title in the years to come. With its young core of Dwight Howard and Darko Milicic in place, they should become the rising team in the East. Every marquee team …
Andrew Bynum
The Los Angeles Lakers seem to love those high school players. A lot never live up to their full potential, and on average you will probably only find one playing per every four teams in the league. But that’s not even close to the case in LA. The Lakers …
Matt Hasselbeck
I’m not sure how many people really know who Matt Hasselbeck is. The Seattle Seahawks aren’t the most popular football team around, and stuck in the great north=west, it’s hard to tell if they’ll ever get exposure. Though Matt Hasselbeck just led the Seahawks to a super bown two …
Wrestler: Chavo Guerrero Sr
Chavo Guerrero Sr is a second generation performer being the son of the legendary Gory Guerrero and brother to wrestling legends Eddie Guerrero, Hector Guerrero and Mando Guerrero, as well as the father of Chavo Guerrero Jr. Chavo Guerrero is A true legend in our sport, being one of …
NASCAR Bud Shootout Race
In 2009, the NASCAR Bud Shootout Race has been changed, and I’m not sure it’s a good one. In fact, it just feels like one great big car manufacturer commercial.
In previous years, those participating in this very first race of the season were poll setters from the prior …
Gamma TNT2 Livewire
Tennis string makers gamma created for the public their bannership product in gamma TNT2 livewire. Cost a bit high but not as much as with the premium natural gut, i’d have to say it feels like one. I had this strung with my Babolat Aero tour ones and with …
Ronald Dupree
The commitment of the Detroit Pistons to finally have a bench play this year continues with Ronald Dupree. He has been around the Pistons for quite some time now and was never given any playing time before this season where he was surprised to have gotten the ticks early …
Formula 1 - The Australian Grand Prix race
One thing the beginning of Formula 1’s 2010 Australian Grand Prix race didn’t lack was excitement. There was a huge mess on the first corner that had Fernando Alonzo turned in the opposite direction and all kinds of other nonsense. These guys rarely start a race clean. …
Seattle Supersonics
The Seattle Supersonics will experience a great decline in the next two years before they can reap the benefits of drafting Collegiate player of the year and consensus best collegiate player in Kevin Durant. They decided to start from scratch and traded away their star players in Ray Allen …
Inzamam ul Huq
Inzmamm ul Huq recently retired from international cricket. He was the most successful Pakistani batsman ever. He averaged over 45 in test and scoreed over 10000 runs in cricket. Only 5 batsman in the world able to do that he is very cool player and hardly losses his head. …
Anti-Watershed Wrestling
AWW is better known as Anti-Watershed Wrestling and is a professional wrestling promotion based in Birmingham, England. They host their regular main shows in Digbeth, Birmingham but also host their major shows a few times a year at Aston University and smaller, family friendly shows at a smaller venue …
North Austin Taekwondo
My son has been attending this school for a few months now, and I really like it. The instructor is rather hard on the students, but not in any way that would be innapropriate for a child. He’ll flick their ears if they fail to cover them correctly, and …
