2007 Arizona Cardinals
Going into the 2007 season, it looked like the Arizona Cardinals had finally turned a corner and were going to be a playoff team. Now that we’re half-way through the season, I think its obvious that they still are the same team they were last year; loaded with talent …
Johan Petro
Johan Petro of the Seattle Supersonics who originally hails from France is another of the teams slew of Centers originating from around the world. Petro plays very similar game to Sene but is a bit bigger and is better at getting scoring opportunities for himself by being active in …
Kansas City Chiefs Preseason
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 …
Allen Iverson
Allen Iverson who was very popular in Philadelphia before being traded last year to the Denver Nuggets is probably the best at the fast paced game. Iverson though has been struggling with off the court issues throughout his career and has been much maligned for it.
On the court though, …
Scott Pollard
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 …
Emmitt Thomas
The Atlanta Falcons have falled victim to some tremendously bad luck this past year. Their star quarter Michael Vick was arrested and ultimately jailed for his involvement with dog fighting. Their new coach high tailed it back to college where the atmosphere is more forgiving. And Bill Parcells turned …
Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics - Men’s Snowboard Cross Qualifying
I must admit I haven’t watched Men’s Snowboard Cross that much over the years. This is one of the newer Olympic events, one of the winter extreme sports added to the list of competitions. As I watch the qualifying the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics, I realized something. …
Tartan Pines Golf Club
I had the opportunity to play Tartan Pines in Enterprise for the second time and I certainly hope I get to play there again. The golf club is really a story of two nines. The front nine eases you in rather gently and then you are faced with a …
Roger Federer
There is no other tennis athlete out there more enjoyable to watch than Roger Federer, if not ever. The smooth strokes like an artist at work, the effortless footwork and the style of play all fit together and for the past 6 years or so, this individual has dominated …
NASCAR: Truck Series - Copart 200 race
Having been postponed one day because of rain in Milwaukee, the Camping World Truck Series Copart 200 race took place on Saturday afternoon, June 20th. With the field lined up by owner’s points, it was Brian Ickler on the pole, and he did lead the first lap before …

Troy Murphy
Troy Murphy of the Golden State Warriors is a versatile big guy who can step into the three point range and shoot it with some consistency and accuracy as well. He also posses the midrange jumper and can make successive post up moves that dazzles the crowd and the …
Reggie Evans
The reason the Philadelphia 76ers are one of the worst team in the NBA right now is shown in the fact that their starting power forward is journeyman Reggie Evans. Don’t get me wrong, Evans is a serviceable big man in the league. The problem i have with him …
Cuttino Mobley
A few years ago I thought the Houston Rockets were the best team in the west. I guess I’m not the basketball expert I thought because they never made it past the first round of the playoffs. In those years I was picking them to win, my favorite player …
Chad Pennington
It is unsure whether New York Jets quarterback, Chad Pennington, will return to action next year. His contract expires and you wonder if another team may want a veteran quarterback to bring their franchise back to winning ways. A lot of criticism about Chad’s not so strong arm have …
Damien Wilkins
There have been a few sports families in history of American sport. YOu have the Mannings with the NFL, the Bonds’ and Griffey’s with MLB and the Barry’s with the NBA. A little known basketball family around is the Wilkins’. The Wilkins family consists of brothers Gerald and Dominique …
Antonio McDyess
For eleven years now, the six foot nine player from the Alabama Crimson Tide’s NCAA mens basketball team, Antonio McDyess, has been causing harm to anyone who dare step in the paint. Though he’s been an off the bench player for most of his carerr, McDyess brings a firey …
James Posey
Newly acquired Celtic guard James Posey is widely considered as one of the best defenders in the league at the two guard position. He is very agile for someone with his height. At six feet and seven inches tall, Posey has great speed and anticipation that makes him the …
North Korea football team
Of all the teams which are competing at the 2010 Fifa World Cup, the one which I am most intrigued by is North Korea - or “Korea DPR” as their management team insists everybody should refer to them. Of course, at least part of their attraction is in the …
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 …
Hockey - thumbs up or thumbs down
When I was a kid, I tried to like hockey, I really did. My uncle was into sports big time, and he liked hockey a lot. He took me to a game once, and I really wanted to enjoy it. The problem was, I just couldn’t follow …
Kenyon Martin
The New Jersey Nets once seemed to have it all in the eastern conference of the NBA. They had the speed, the big shot ability, Jason Kidd and Kenyon Martin… what more could a team ask for? Kenyon, the six foot nine forward out of Cincinnati, was an incredibly …
DeShawn Wynn
When the Packers opted not to re-sign Ahman Green, there was a lot of speculation about who their starting running back would be. In my opinion, the best guy they have at the position is one that probably shouldn’t have even made the team.
DeShawn Wynn was a 7th round …
Jack Kailis
Jack Kailis is the best all-rounder player in the world at present. He is very powerful player with a strong body build up. Kalis is a very aggressive batsman and the best batsman in south African team at present. He scores at every important at every occasion …
Diablo All Star Paintballs
I’m really not sure how or when these paintballs came out, but I do know that they’re about the best paintballs I’ve ever used. It confuses me that now Diablo is producing All Star paintballs, which have been an RPS trademark for years. They are much cheaper than RPS …
St. Louis Rams
When the Rams parted ways with coach Mike Martz and replaced him with Scott Linehan, I thought that was a great move and expected it to get them back into the playoffs. I didn’t expect them to be 4-1 and contending this season though.
Overall, the Rams aren’t overly impressive …
Wrestler: Afa Anoia
People might remember Afa Anoia as one half of the legendary savage team from the 80’s from both the WCW and the WWF known as The Wild Samoans. Afa is an amazing performer and always has been, and the Wild Samoans themselves were a prominent and legendary tag-team in …
Oakley A Frame Ski Goggles
I’m an avid skier and it’s really important to me to have good equipment that will last and most importantly will offer the greatest safety. That being said, my friends recommended that I spend the extra money and invest in a pair of Oakley A Frame Ski Goggles.
The …
Leandro Barbosa
Brazil’s main man, Leandro Barbosa who plays for the Phoenix Suns in the NBA has unparalleled speed that favors his game with the suns. Phoenix often plays in a fast tempo game that suites Barbosa’s game. With the ball and streaking to the lane he is very tough to …
Eric Moulds
The Tennessee Titans are starting to make vast improvements on their once losing team. They went to the playoffs this year in only Vince Young’s second season and will most likely also make it there next year. They have a host of young wide receivers which includes Mike Williams …
Joakim Noah
Joakim Noah came out of Florida as a two time collegiate champion. An impressive resume indeed to bring to the NBA. His calling card in florida has been his defense and his rebounding. The Bulls practically drafted him in anticipation of a slow decline in Ben Wallace’s game. At …
Titleist Pro V1 golfballs
This review is about the Pro V1 golfballs. In golf, the Titleist Pro V1 are the best of the balls. Everyone talks about them and everbody plays them, but what about these balls is so special.
You have probably heard that they are soft. Okay, thats good. A soft ball …
Mike Holmgren
In the National Football League, coaches are a dime a dozen. There seems to be one in and one out on every single team about every three or so seasons average. Mike Holmgren may be one of the only exceptions. His stint with the Seattle Seahawks is looking promising. …
Raef LaFrentz
Raef LaFrentz entered the league as the fourth overall pick in the 1998 NBA draft for the Denver Nuggets. And if truth be told, i was scared to death with this guys potential. Of all the comparative talks about who’s gonna be the next Larry Bird, LaFrentz was the …
Ray Allen
Over a decade ago there was a player coming out of the the Connecticut Huskies NCAA mens basketball program who had all the buzz. Six foot five guard Ray Allen would prove that he had chops for both basketball and the silver screen. After being drafted in the first …
Wally Szczerbiak
Wally Szczerbiak whom for the rest of this review will be calling Wally as it is so damn hard to spell his last name started his career as a sidekick to Kevin Garnett for the Minnesota Timberwolves. He even made an all star team in doing so and was …
Al Thornton
The Florida State Seminoles had a fairly decent basketball team last year. Though playing in Florida, they will now always be second best to the back to back NCAA Division 1 Men’s Basketball National Champions, the Florida Gators. Though the Seminoles really can’t do much with being second best …
Bowflex Select Tech Dumbells
Very nice item if you can afford it. (If you are a smart shopper you will drop about $300-350 after shipping)
Well built, and very useful. You adjust the weight by simply turning a dial. From 5-52.5 lbs in very small increments. You could go from 5,7.5,10,12.5,15, and on upward …
James Jones
James Jones started his career in the NBA with the Indiana Pacers as some sort of a Reggie Miller clone. Since he entered the league with a deadly three point shot, they trained him with reggie and taught him every tricks that Miller use to do in the game. …
Wrestler: Balls Mahoney
Balls Mahoney is another of my personal favorite Wrestlers from the 90’s. Not only was he one of my favorites though, he was one of the most over and memorable figures in the Wrestling company Extreme Championship Wrestling. His character was unique so much with so many generic and …
Wrestler: Chris Benoit
Chris Benoit was one of the greatest professional wrestlers ever to grace our fair sport, since the first day I saw him wrestle on an edition of WCW Nitro, I was an immediate fan, and later found out he was a HUGE fan of The Dynamite Kid Tommy Billington, …
Jerry Stackhouse
Jerry Stackhouse was an excellent scorer early in his career as a Detroit Piston and a Philadelphia 76er. He has an unbelievable athleticism and can rise up at any moment to go for the dunk. He also was gifted with the ability to shot the three point shot with …
Nene Hilario
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 …
Mike Smith
When the Atlanta Falcons announced they had hired Mike Smith as their head coach, I was actually a bit surprised.
Normally, owner Arthur Blank looks to make a big splash by hiring someone he expects to turn the team around overnight. Smith isn’t going to be that guy.
I do …
Chauncey Billups
In my opinion Chauncey Billups is one of the most over-rated point guards of all time. He has benefited greatly from playing in a great team with great chemistry and has taken credit for most of it. I really don’t like his game at all. Some of his avid …
Brian Billick
The more I look at Brian Billick’s career as the Baltimore Ravens head coach, the more I think he got a raw deal when he was fired by the team.
Billick isn�t an offensive genius, like many people thought he would be when he was hired 9 years ago. …
Rasheed Wallace
Rasheed Wallace has been T’d up three times since I started writing this. If anyone knows who this guy is, they know he is the undisputed reigning bad boy of basketball. The twelve year veteran out of the great North Carolina Tarheel program in the NCAA divison 1 mens …
Santana Moss
The Washington Redskins have had more than their fair share of troubles this past season. Though making it to the playoffs, they were decidedly booted out by a much hungrier, and less beat up Seattle Seahawk team. Though each year, wheter they seem to make the playoffs or not, …
Desert Springs golf course
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 …
Wrestler: BG James
BG James is easily one of the most charismatic wrestlers to compete in the last 10 years of his exposure in the big leagues in my opinion. A member of the famous Armstrong family, his wrestling ability resembles that of his famous father Bob Armstrong, and is shared with …
