Victor Chandler Poker, a member of the iPoker network, is by far my favorite poker site to play on. It has a sleek design, competitive but not great players, fast payouts, and excellent staff.
The interface looks nearly identical to all of the other iPoker network sites, so it should …

He broke …

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 …

Sean Marks of the Phoenix Suns has been in the league for a long time now. I am actually surprised to see that Sean Marks is playing his eight season in the league and many people haven’t even heard of him. Over the years as a spectator of not …

After the tragic Hurricane Katrina that severely hit the New Orleans Area, the team was temporarily relocated to Oklahoma City and with the National effort made to renew and restore New Orleans, the team should be expected to get back playing in front of their home crowd next year. …

I was introduced to Chelsea Football Club as one of the bigger teams of the English Premier League, as one of the traditional, so called —˜Big Four’, with Leeds United not lagging too far behind Chelsea, Manchester United, Liverpool and Arsenal, in no particular order.
I only recently started looking …

Brandon Jackson is the backup running back for the Green Bay Packers in the NFL. He’s a very good backup to have on your team, especially for the Packers new, young QB, Aaron Rodgers. Jackson gives Rodgers a check down, and a reliable checkdown at that. You look back …

Once upon a time, Scott Pollard of the Boston Celtics was a primary contributor in the NBA for the Sacramento Kings. It wasn’t that long ago as well. He was an integral part of what the Kings where trying to do. He came off the bench and gave Vlade …

Larry Fitzgerald is a highly rated wide receiver for the Arizona Cardinals of the National Football League. I believe that Larry Fitzgerald is one of the most dominant receivers in the league. He is currently one of my favorite players to watch.
Larry Fitzgerald has always been a consistant …

Tyrus Thomas who was the former third overall pick in the NBA draft has had a slow accent to his career. Although looking back in his collegiate days, I never really thought that he would become a Superstar in this league. His game lacks a little bit of physical …

Although Messi has proven his class time and again …

The New York Jets didn’t have much to offer their unruley, impatient fans this year. Their record ended up too embarrassing to even put in print, and they’re not even sure if they have a quarterback for next season. But their on again off again relationship with wide receiver …

Floyd Mayweather Jr. has just proven to the world of boxing that he indeed is the best pound for pound fighter out there. After methodically dismantling the previously unbeaten British fighter Ricky Hatton last weekend. I did have my doubts when he entered the fight that he might lose …

While I don’t like the Pittsburgh Steelers (it comes with being a Ravens fan) I did respect them as worthy adversaries. They had a formidable offense and a defense that rivaled even our great one. As such, I always knew that a game against them would be …

Troy Meyers is one of the best high-school running backs in the entire USA. Just last night 8/25/06 he probably ran for about 250 yards against the Pendleton Heights Arabians in their upsetting 27-21 defeat for Greenfield. Meyers will probably easily make a college squad, and then from their …

As a football player and admirer from the continent of Africa, I am naturally in love with a certain way in which the game is played, particularly with focus on technical skill and flair and I get really excited when I see players giving others nutmegs and showboating when …

Just as is the case with Ronaldinho, wathcing Zlatan Ibrahimovic is a bit of a sad case for me because I really feel as if he is one of those players who never really worked hard enough to realize his true potential as a football player. With Ronaldinho though, …

With everything the Atlanta Falcons have been through these past two seasons, it is no wonder they went out and got a guy like Joe Horn. With Michael Vick, their supposed franchise quarterback in jail, the Falcons had to make due with what was available. The ownership for the …

Sorry, Cam. I don’t know about anyone else, but I’ve never been so disappointed as watching the Miami Dolphins struggle to win a game this year. I really didn’t think they’d win even one. And personally, I was rooting for them to lose them all! But the guy I …

Francisco Elson is one of those players who has benefited greatly by playing alongside Tim Duncan. From an unknown player in the league to a respected big man off the bench for the defending world champions. Before his stop with the Spurs Elson was playing a role with the …

This guy was a great player for the 49ers and will help all the teams that he will play for in the NFL during his career. Rashaun will play with the Chargers this year and will probably be their third wide receivers. In his rookie year he caught 7 …

I do play tennis once in a while. I am not really an expert but I think I love this game which to me is quite challenging. It tests my speed in movement and responding. Although playing tennis has been quite occasional to me, every time my …

Coming out of USC in college with a Heisman trophy, much hyped quarterback Carson Palmer was drafted by the Cincinnati Bengals with their first pick and was set to be the hero of the downtrodden team. Never having won anything since their superbowl of the early 80’s, Cincinnati sat …

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 …

Right now as a rookie for the Milwaukee Bucks, Yi Jianlin has so far looked so pedestrian to me. He certainly got game but it will need at least a good 2-3 seasons before the Bucks will fully reap the benefits of drafting him with a top 5 pick …

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 …

Andres Nocioni who came as an import from Argentina shows a lot of promise on the latter part of last season. And thus far, he has shown improvement and consistency on his shooting. Which in my opinion was his weakest point early on in his career. He now consistently …

Charles Woodson is one of the very few shut down cornerbacks in the NFL today. When he signed with the Packers this offseason, he immediately updated a secondary that has had problems in recent years.
Proof of his ability can be seen in games, when his name is rarely called …

Now that a couple of teams are seeking a new head coach, former 49ers and Lions coach Steve Mariucci’s name will likely come up as a candidate. Teams should shy away from him.
Mariucci isn’t a horrible coach; his record with the 49ers proves that. But, the teams that are …
