The rivalry for …

Ok, when people talk about Chicago Bears’ player Devin Hester, I will be the first to admit he’s pretty fast. After all, Madden Football gave him the first ever 100 speed rating.
But, I also think he’s very overrated.
The guy is dangerous as a kick returner. But, the fact he …

Everyone knows the Chicago Bears. Even if you’re not a fan of the National Football League, you have probably danced along with the “Super Bowl Shuffle.” I know I have. And most people know that the Bears had a horrible season this year after going to the Super Bowl …

Tyson Chandler in my opinion will be the next Marcus Camby. He has the size, the same body type and the same scoring and defense capabilities. Chandler has slowly made strides in becoming a better offensive player this year. And in the play of the Hornets it is quite …
