Dale Earnhardt Junior Fans
Lately I’m beginning to have a real problem with NASCAR fans who love and support Dale Earnhardt Junior. It isn’t all the fans of course, but a large portion of them anyway. I understand supporting your favorite driver and sticking by him for the duration, but there is such …
Jamal Magloire
Jamaal Magloire was a former all star for the Eastern Conference and very nice pick up for the New Jersey Nets who last year lacked the depth and the toughness to contend for the title. With Magloire in hand and the return of starting Center Nenad Kristic from injury …
Greg Camarello
Greg is an okay receiver that can catch passes if you want him to. He is out of Stanford where he wasn’t their best wide receiver, but he did do okay. Last year he didn’t even catch one pass but this year he might be able to catch one …
Full Tilt Poker
If you watch a lot of television, and in particular pay attention to the online poker commercials that come on more and more frequently every day, you’ll doubtless have seen commercials for Full Tilt Poker.
Full Tilt seems to stake a lot of its success on using poker pros for …
Steve Smith
For the past seven years, Carolina Panthers wide receiver Steve Smith has been a blessing to both his team and the league as a whole. All he does is make plays and go back to the huddle, ready to make another. Though he does get flashy at times, the …
Plaxico Burress
Ever since having a big game against the Green Bay Packers during the NFC Title game, Plaxico Burress is acting like he’s an elite receiver in the NFL. He’s far from it.
Burress is a decent number one receiver. But, he’s also seriously overrated. That’s why the Steelers, who drafted …
Wrestler: Antonio Thomas
Antonio Thomas is probably best known for his short stint in the WWE with his partner Romeo Roselli as the overly effeminate ladies men ‘The Heartthrobs.’ They never actually got passed Jobber status before being released however.
Personally, I thought they had potential. They were bought up too soon from …
Kevin Martin
Another player that i didn’t expect to become a star in the NBA is Kevin Martin of the Sacramento Kings. He doesn’t have the persona, the size and the weight to be an unstoppable player in the league. But a superstar is exactly what he has become. He has …
Donovan Darius
The recent release of strong safety Donovan Darius should make him one of the top free agents on the NFL market and I expect him to attract attention from several teams.
The 31-year-old Darius is a solid run stopper and a fierce hitter, making him perfect for the strong safety …
Preseason Bears versus 49ers
From what I saw of the Bears during their first pre-season game, I think you’re going to see another season where their defense will win them the division but their offense will keep them from going far in the playoffs.
Starter Rex Grossman and the first team offense did absolutely …
Jake Delhomme
The Carolina Panthers have always been a team that everyone knows about. Since they were expanded to be in the league in the early 90’s, they’ve been known to win a game or few. And with their quarterback, Jake Delhomme, it’s no wonder why. Jake is an amazing quarterback …
Gregg Popovich
Who doesn’t know the San Antonio Spurs head coach Gregg Popovice? He has the second longest tenure in the NBA and has won multiple championships since he was named the head coach in 1996. Pop’s, as the players like to call him, is getting a little over eager in …
Brett Favre
I don’t think Brett Favre is ever going to retire. It will be 2042 and Brett will roll out in his wheel chair and throw a 75 yard touchdown pass to the rookie wide receiver in space boots. Brett Favre is the heart and soul of the Green Bay …
Joe Gibbs
Recently retired head coach of the Washington Redskins, Joe Gibbs, was one of the most popular figures in all of sports this past year. After dealing with the untimely death of one of his players, Gibbs lead the Redskins on a charge that would take them into the playoffs.
Returning …
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 …
Ronaldinho
Ronaldinho is one of the best soccer players I ever saw in my life. He does everything very nicely: freekicks, dribles, shoot, velocity, stamina and the list goes on. Ronaldinho has a vision of the game that not many others players does. For example, even when he�s behind the …
Wrestler: Abdullah Kobayashi
Recently I purchased a Japanese Hardcore Wrestling DVD which featured some of the bloodiest and most gruesome matches I have ever seen. On this DVD which stood out however was a man by the name of Abdullah Kobayashi. I am a big fan of Abdullah The Butcher, and happen …
Brodie Croyle
Brodie Croyle was a great starting quarterback for the University of Alabama. Croyle was great throughout the entire season and helped his team along almost all by himself. Brodie’s teammates all looked up to him sort of as the team leader. If your looking for someone that can …
Stone-Cold Steve Austin
I used to watch wrestling in my teens, it was like 10 years back, at that time the most famous wrestler was Stone Cold Steve Austin. I checked out WWE a few days back and I saw him still in action, it seems he is still going strong. …
Joe Horn
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 …
Tyrus Thomas
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 …
Wade Phillips
If you watched the Dallas Cowboys play at all this year, then you’ve probably seen their energetic coach on the sidelines, Wade Phillips. Wade is a transplant from colder climates. Once up in Buffalo, he’s now down in Texas to see how his brand of football works with America’s …
Peaceful Football Event
Yesterday Brasilia, Brazil was the arena of a football match between Brazil and Chile teams. The stadium, called “Mane Garrincha” - the name of an excellent and legendary brazilian football player, was completelly full, with about 45,000 expectators. The spectators were so educated and the city demonstrated a very …
Wrestler: Chris Masters
The Masterpiece as he calls himself, is an up and coming professional wrestler currently wrestling in World Wrestling Entertainment in it’’s Smackdown Brand. I watched the debut of Chris Masters, and at first glance, i wasn’’t too impressed. I saw him as merely a Lex Luger wannabe, but after …
Luke Ridnour
With the Case of Luke Ridnour who was formerly the starter for the Seattle Supersonics, it is a change of fortunes for him. After being invited in the training camp for the Senior Men’s US national team, Ridnour has been in a downhill ever since.
With a new coach at …
Antonio Daniels
With the injury to Gilbert Arenas, Antonio Daniels should have gotten the bulk of minutes playing the point guard position for the Washington Wizards. Unfortunately for him and the Wizards he got injured and is again out of the line-up for the nest month. This is unfortunate in the …
Jermaine O’Neal
Fresh out of high school eleven years ago, power forward/center, Jermaine O’Neal, was thrown right into action for the Indiana Pacers. Along side Reggie Miller, O’Neal spent the first few years as an average player. But considering his top level competition came while attending Eau Claire High School, he …
2008 Green Bay Packers
Packers training camp is just around the corner and, being the fan that I am (and being absolutely bored today) I feel I would take a few minutes to review what I feel to be a very talented team with potential for great things; assuming a few weak spots …
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. …
Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics - Men’s Two-Man Bobsleigh
The bobsled has always been an exciting sport to watch. The notion of two men inside this bobsled, going ridiculously fast with unthinkable g-forces attacking their body is mind boggling. It’s thrilling to watch, especially at the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics.
The event takes place over two nights, …
Sean Williams
Sean Williams was drafted by the New Jersey Nets despite having a bad record coming into the draft. He was hastily dismissed by his collegiate team when he did a conduct detrimental to the team. He was kicked off the team and had the remainder of his collegiate career …
ZaZa Pachulia
ZaZa Pachulia of the Atlanta Hawks started his career with the Orlando Magic. He was a valuable reserve for them but back then his skills are highly underdeveloped. He had a very raw game he often had very little to no playing time at all. On his last season …
Jason Terry
Jason Terry is the firepower off the bench for the Dallas Mavericks. Gifted with incredible speed, he often leaves his defenders in the perimeter using a variety of moves. He has perfected the art of head pumping, head fake and head and body shake that eludes him off of …
Rashad McCants
Minnesota Timberwolves starter Rashad McCants is one of the more explosive guards there is in the league. He has a very quick first step that loses his defenders quickly and if not for his injury he would have been a crazy athlete in the mold of a Kobe Bryant. …
David Haye v Nikolay Valuev - WBA Heavyweight Championship Fight
David Haye had only recently entered the heavyweight division in boxing but had already agreed a deal to fight Nikolay Valuev for the WBA Heavyweight title.
Arranging such a fight had been as a surprise by many in the boxing world. First, pundits and fans were wondering whether he was …
Peyton Manning
Peyton Manning of the Indianapolis Colts is probably one of my most favorite quarterbacks of all time. I have three in that category in Bret Favre and Tom Brady. Manning though in my own opinion is one of the best offensive quarterbacks. He has great vision that enables him …
Wrestler: Afa Jnr.
Afa Anoia, anyone who is a fan of wrestling has heard of this famous name as one of the most recognizable in our sport. Afa Anoia Jnr is of course the Son of Wild Samoan Afa.
This young man has been a professional for many years having only competed in …
Wrestler: Brock Lesnar
Brock Lesnar was introduce when true talented monsters were limited to zero, and this is why he was bought in and pushed straight away as a main eventer. For a man of his size, image and strength, you would not expect anything great out of him other than one …
Barcelona Football Club
I personally think if anyone claims they love the game of football, no matter what team they support, they have to love watching Barcelona Football Club in action, with their short passing, patient game that is characterized by a team of highly skilled individuals that fight for each other …
Wrestler: Bobby Eaton
Beautiful Bobby Eaton is one of my personal favorite Tag Team wrestlers, being one half of the legendary Midnight Express. His best matches of course were in the tag-team division against all time greats such as The Rock ‘N’ Roll Express, which actually is one of my all time …
Joe Johnson
The Atlanta Hawks are quickly making a name for themselves in the NBA. But not like you would think. The team is best known for their losing ways, and it seems to be continuing. One player hoping to stop this trend is six foot seven two guard from Arkansas, …
Zlatan Ibrahimovic Swedish Soccer Player
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, …
Rasheed Wallace
Rasheed Wallace one of the very reasons that detroit won that championship in the ‘04 season has transformed himself from the bad boy image he was percieved at portland to a team guy in detroit. He has bought into the system the coach has for the team and it …
Opp Country Club
I played a little out of the way golf course while visiting friends in Alabama. The country club in Opp, Alabama is a pretty basic little golf course that I happened to play one weekend because they had organized a scramble tournament. I do not envisage ever going back …
Super Sport Park Indoor Football Centre
With my interest in the game of football (soccer) having a deep rooted base in all forms of the sport, from free styling to the conventional eleven versus eleven, full field version, exploring the indoor version of it at the Supersport Park Indoor Football Centre, made for a very …
Micheal Bevan
Is one of my all time favorite one day cricketer. He is also one of the most under-estimated cricketers. I have been very impressed by his performance. I hardly remember any time when he has not made runs for his country. He has an expectation average of over 55 …
Jeff Foster
Somehow Jeff Foster of the Indiana Pacers have never developed into a better offensive player in the NBA than what he is now. I like him in the fact that he is a very good rebounder both offensively and defensively. He is really good at tipping in shots as …
Innova Monarch Disc
I have been playing disc golf for a few years now, and I’ve thrown a fair variety of discs. I originally picked up the Innova Monarch when I was still somewhat new to the game, thinking it would be a great disc for turn over shots between one …
Jeff Webb
I look around the Kansas City Chiefs roster and I do not see much that resembles talent. The Chiefts have succeeded these past few years with a solid running attack. Now that that’s gone, I don’t see much they can do. With a receiving core that nobody has ever …
