Desert Springs is much more than a golf course. It has a sports club ‘El Club Deportivo la Sierra’, situated next to the Crocodile Club. You can enjoy games of tenis and paddle, work out in the gym, compete with your friends at volley ball and play …

The National Basketball Association has some characters. Both on their teams and in their front offices. Ranging from outspoken attitudes to confusing names, the NBA is in no short supply of humor. This was evident to me when I heard the Milwaukee Bucks select Royal Ivey from the Texas …

Women’s Moguls is an exciting skiing competition that begins with a trick, proceeds to traversing the moguls, and ends with a final trick right before crossing the finish line. The judges award points based on air, speed, and turns. Canadian Jenn Heil was a favorite going in …

My team-by-team review of the NFL continues with a look at the final AFC East Team, the Buffalo Bills.
This is a team that really doesn’t do a whole lot that gains media attention normally. But, in an effort to catch up with the rest of the division, they did …

I can’t say I’m a huge fan of the Nordic Combined sport. I do watch it, every four years at the Olympics, but something about it doesn’t usually excite me. However, the ending alone of this grueling event, the Nordic Combined Individual Normal Hill - 10kh of …

Vince Carter is an intriguing specimen of a human being as an athlete. He is probably one of the most gifted athletes who ever came into the NBA. Freaky leaping ability and creating one highlight reel after the other makes Carter an instant celebrity. He has often topped or …

Andre Miller came off of the Allen Iverson trade from the Denver Nuggets. He was one of the reasons the Sixers agreed to that trade. In getting Miller the Sixers receive a player who is very tough defensively and also is one of the league’s best assist man. His …

Great for intermediate level players that aren’t ready for the big time sticks like the Flexpoint Prestige, Ncode 6.1 tour, etc., It’s a tad above the tweener rackets since it has more emphasis on control rather than the in-between game the tweeners offer. Used by many touring pros such …

I would have to say right off the bat, that I was very disappointed by this product. What this item is supposed to be is a baseball that you throw and is supposed to tell you how fast your pitch is. I opened the item and took it …

I haven’t had many opportunities to watch Jay Cutler play quarterback before. But, after finally getting to see him play, I can tell you the comparisons to John Elway and Brett Favre are a bit premature.
Let’s face the facts; the guy has started 12 games. He has a 5-7 …

Ranked in the top ten best leagues in the world, I think much of the basis for this ranking lies firmly on the amount of money flowing through the Absa Premiership, the sponsorships as well as the organization, but not the quality of football itself.
As a South African, soccer …

Australia’s Cheltzie Lee gave a nice, clean program. There was nothing technically awesome about it, but she’s living her Olympic dream. She received a score that was her personal best. I think more than ever before I’m enjoying these moments. Medals are wonderful, but it’s …

Francisco Garcia of the Sacramento Kings is a type of player that any team in the NBA could use. He is scrappy, he hustles for the ball and he can also defend in three positions. I really like this player coz he does all the dirty work for the …

David West of the New Orleans Hornets started his career as a nobody. He came into the league with little to no credentials at all and he was given little playing time at first. But, with the continued growth of West both on and off the court. The Hornets …

When the Packers started out, …

Nene Hilario of the Denver Nuggets has been a disappointment ever since he joined the Denver Nuggets. He was drafted quite high on the rookie draft since the Nuggets and pretty much everyone on the league expected him to be a star someday. Coming from Brazil, Nene has all …

When I think of the Duke University Blue Devils I think of one name, J.J. Redick. And when I think of J.J. Redick, I think of four words, “Buckets and more buckets.” Okay, I think of three more too, “Nothing but net.” Redick is one of the most fantastically …

My family loves to go camping. We go as often as we can every summer. As much as we like to grill out or cook over the camp fire while we are at the campsite, there are times when doing either just isn’t convenient. For this reason, we decided …

The AFC West division isn’t the strongest division in the league and it’s reasonable to think just about every team in it has a shot at winning it. However, I think the Kansas City Chiefs are the likely exception to that.
I remember, way back when, the Chiefs were a …

The Men’s 30k Pursuit at the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics proved to be quite the surprise. This event starts out with four laps of classic and then four laps freestyle skiing.
Through the classic style, it was amazing to see all four of Canada’s team in the lead pack. …

When the Eagles first signed Jeff Garcia as a back-up quarterback, my question was “why.”
After seeing him play filling in for Donovan McNaab Sunday, I still have the same question.
There is no way Garcia should be playing in the NFL, even as a backup. He no longer has the …

My Dad and I used to go to St Andrews every other Saturday afternoon to watch our favorite football team Birmingham City play. My dad and I have supported Birmingham City for many years now from when it was standing only and in a very decrepit state, to …

Probably one of the best shot blocking big man to ever play the game. He has great timing and before he had kidney transplant, Mourning was an unstoppable force in the middle. He owned an array of shots and abilities with either facing up or posting down low in …

I have always thought that Miami Heat General Manager/Head Coach Pat RIley is an old fraud. He took over the team after he initiated deals that netted him a rather healthy O’neal away from the Los Angeles Lakers. When he noticed that his team had the chance to get …

The other day, I was watching a Packers game and one of the announcers mentioned Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo and how he reminds them of Brett Favre.
Out of curiosity, I decided to watch a Cowboys game to see just how accurate this description was. And, I was impressed.
When Romo …

Now that the season is officially over for the Green Bay Packers this year and they’ve missed the playoffs with a 6-10 record, I figured I would take a few minutes to review their season and their team.

New York Knick guard Jamaal Crawford is much maligned for his lack of maturity in his NBA career. And, playing on the spotlight at the “Mecca of Basketball” with the knicks at Madison Square Garden, all his mistakes are often magnified to highlight the negative part of his game. …

In my opinion, yes. Last year, they went as far as NBA final. However, they lost to the Miami Heat after leading 2-0 in the final series. Many people still believe that the Mavs deserved to win because they beat the Suns and the Spurs on the road. In …

New Jersey Nets point guard Jason Kidd was the NBA?s epitome of versatility. He probably still is, the only gathering concern is his health issues that has been hounding him the last couple of years. After an ACL surgery a couple of years back and an aging age of …

The Green Bay Packers may soon find themselves looking for a replacement for quarterbacks coach Tom Clements. That is, of course, if other teams realize just how great of a job he’s done and look to sign him as an offensive coordinator.
Clements had the task of taking a 38-year-old …

Here’s how I summarize the Carolina Panthers; they lost their starting quarterback for the season and their back up quarterbacks, including Vinnie Testaverde, who was signed a couple of weeks into the regular season, can’t seem to stay healthy. However, they are 4-4 and are still in the playoff …

The Shallot is the largest of Kershaw’s “Onion themed” line of folding knives, one step larger than the Leek. It weighs 4.2 oz., has a 3 1/2″ blade, and measures 4 3/8″ when closed. The handles are 410 stainless steel, and the blade is Sandvik 14C28N stainless. …

Devin Harris of the Dallas Mavericks in my opinion is one of the most speedy point guards out there today. He has this quick burst of speed that leaves defenders behind. Harris is a valuable part of the Mavericks drive to the championship. I’ve seen him a couple of …
