Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics - Women’s Halfpipe Finals
Tonight was the finals for the Women’s Halfpipe event in the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics. The women don’t do as big of turns as the guys do, but it is still exciting to watch. They get two runs and the best individual scores win the medals.

Wrestler: Bushwhacker Butch
Bushwhacker Butch was one half of the tag team known as the bushwhackers. They were generally Hillbillies who the fans absolutely adored, and back in the day when I didn’t know better, I was no exception. While they were very entertaining as a team, on his own, Butch was …

Rex Grossman
Rex staked his claim to a job in ‘03, when he became the first known Bears rookie signal-caller to win his first two starts. In fact, only Jim McMahon (in 1982) ever had won even his initial start. In his second game, Grossman threw a record-setting pass, as his …

Ben Gordon
I compare Ben Gordon to that of former Piston the microwave Benny Johnson. Gordon started his career as a contributor off the bench and every time his number was called during the game he always often converts.
Gifted with extraordinary strength at the two guard position, Gordon also has …
Jim Bates
When I think about Jim Bates, I think of a guy who had the potential to be a great defensive coordinator but basically blew his chances because he�s a big cry baby.

Peja Stojakovic

Randy Moss
The New England Patriots finished this regular season winning all sixteen of their games. This has a great deal to do with the entire organization as a whole, but more specifically, their off season acquisition in wide receiver Randy Moss. For his years with the Minnesote Vikings, Randy Moss …

Sam Vincent
The Charlotte Bobcats confuse me, where they the Charlotte Hornetts once? I don’t really know. I can’t keep up with the way basketball is moving. Now the Hornetts are the New Orleans Hornetts and Baron Davis plays for Golden State. The only thing I know for sure about the …

lamar Odom of the Los Angeles Lakers is one my favorite players in the league today. He is a six feet ten inch specimen who can play all five positions. He has that rare ability for a big man to handle the ball and facilitate the offense. He gets …

FootJoy StaCooler Women’s Golf Glove
I go through golf gloves at an extremely fast rate, usually about 2 every year. I find they wear out in the palm very quickly, and I also rarely find one that is also comfortable for an entire 19 holes. The last time I golfed with a friend of …
Chad Johnson
There are elite receivers in the NFL. And, then there’s a tier that is slightly below that elite receiver group. Cincinnati Bengals receiver Chad Johnson falls into that group.
Johnson, at one point, probably could have been an elite player in the league. The problem is, his ego got in …

Nike White Cortez
I found this much too expensive for just casual wear, it’s price was valued at approximately $60.8 USD and I just couldn’t buy it because I would only be getting to wear it when I walk my dog or when I’m in a hurry to get dressed, which doesn’t …
