If you caught the western conference playoffs for the National Basketball Association last year, or the year before, then you’ve probably seen the Phoenix Suns come oh so close to visiting the finals. The Suns are a very talented basketball team. And a big part of that comes from …

When Randy Moss drew interest from the Green Bay Packers and New England Patriots this past off season, I thought both teams were making a mistake even looking at him. But, after watching him play for the Patriots this year, I think I was wrong on my assumption he …

At one point, Najeh Davenport looked like he would be the Packers future starter at running back. Now, if they had more depth at running back, he would be on the street.
Davenport has a good combination of size and speed. However, he never learned to lower his shoulders, which …

Looking at the names of the top receivers in the league, I always notice Donald Driver’s name is ommitted. He has to be one of the most underrated receivers in the NFL.
Coming to the Packers as a late round draft choice, Driver worked his way up the depth chart …

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, …

Owning the starting point guard duties for the Toronto Raptors is miniscule guard TJ Ford. After a tragic first season in the league with the Milwaukee Bucks when he had that accident that broke his neck and it almost ended his playing career. Ford resurrected his NBA playing career …

I’m an avid airsoft fan. Like a lot of “airsofters”, I participate in skirmishes at my local airsoft community. Like all soldiers in the field, you want a good sidearm to …

The Atlanta Hawks have never been much of a threat in the NBA. And since 2005, they haven’t made much improvement on their push over status. The hiring of head coach Mike Woodson was supposed to signal the start of something different. But with his combined record of 69 …

The amazing feats of Michael Phelps in the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, were amazing. Not only did he win 8 gold medals but he won those eight with a ton of pressure on his shoulders. Every single race he had, everyone was looking at him waiting for him …

I have to admit that i didn’t even know Charlie Villanueva when he first enter the league playing for the Toronto Raptors. But with the big rookie season that he had for that team, as an avid NBA fan, i started taking notice at once. Eventually he was a …

Dunn is a shifty runner who possesses surprising ability to run beteen the tackles despite his small stature, at 5′9″ and 180 pounds. In 2003 the Falcons’ talented halfback tallied two 100-yard games. Dunn came over from Tampa Bay in 2002, and has had a great career so far …

Before David Stern, the commissioner of the National Basketball Association, changed the rule last year that prohibited players from making the leap from high school directly into the NBA, one player got in just before the shop closed. Louis Williams, the six foot two inch poing guard from South …

With a career average of 8.9 yards per catch, Bubba has become a safety blanket for the QB Brett Favre and a lock to get a first down. The sure-handed tight end caught four touchdown passes in 2003, bringing his career total to a huge 21, putting him third …

The Women’s1500 meter event of Speed Skating competition during the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympic games was stellar and full of excitement. As an American, I’d like to say we were in the thick of the hunt, but this isn’t our event. Still, the thrill of the Olympics …

Last year there was a bit of controversy in the Ohio State Buckeyes NCAA division 1 mens basketball program. It appeared as though the team had let the school janitor play. After asking around, I found it it wasn’t the janitor, but I’m still not convinced that it wasn’t …

Brevin Knight is one of the smallest players in the league right now. But this is not a measure of his character. Knight who has continually battled the public perception on him being too small to play in the big man’s game has in my opinion more than made …

Nenad Kristic is a very good shooter for a big man. His seven feet tall and can step outside to shoot the open mid range jumper. Something that fits really well with the Nets offense since they have a number of guards and small forwards who are capable of …

Amare Stoudemire is the big named talent from a small named school. The six foot ten inch center/power forward played his college ball in Cyprus Creek which is located in Orlando FLorida. The Phoenix Suns were happy to grab this tremendous talent up and quickly built their entire team …

When I was a kid and really crazy about basketball, I would watch the games of the Philippine Basketball Association because it is definitely one of the most exciting basketball leagues, sometimes even better than the NBA. Never mind though that the quality of the players are far …

With the peak of my interest in football entering its nova phase in the late nineties, one my international footballing heroes would unsurprisingly be Ronaldo De Lima, given his popularity at the time and his epic rise to stardom.
At the 1998 FIFA World Cup held in France is the …

Sarena Williams is the younger sister of Venus Williams. She came out inexperienced and was able to recover from her in experience, and finally she became a very good tennis player. She replaced Venus Williams as world no.1. She is very powerful player with grate four hand …

Sam I am. 39 years old and still playing at a high level of basketball. I have to give credit to where credit is due. And certainly Cassel deserves that. At 39 and signed by the clippers 4 years ago to teach and foster their lottery pick and prodigy …

Since I was back in high school a decade ago I’ve been watching the former Wyoming star, Theo Ratliff, play in the NBA. The six foot ten center/power forward has always excited the crowd with his intense style and determined swagger. Though most of his career he’s been a …

The 2009 NASCAR season got under way with the Bud Shootout 2009 race on February 7 and while it didn’t end exactly how I wanted it to, it was a very good race.
This special race is run in two segments, the first being 25 laps and the second being …

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 …

My son and niece used to work at Camden Yards, Oriole Park and I would go with them to the games to assure that they arrived home safely. I had the opportunity to meet many baseball players during this period because I was always at the games.
I …

AmirKahn vs Breidis Prescott. It was the fight that was to see Amir Kahn face the biggest set back of his young career so far and also the fight which encouraged me to never pay the Sky Box Office to watch boxing ever again.
Since turning pro Kahn had developed …

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 …

Bob Backlund was the WWWF champion from 1978 - 1983. He had becomes a controversial figure because he was a rather bland champion who decidedly lacked charisma, but he maintained a solid drawing card ability that did not diminish until the very last few months of his title reign. …

The first time I witnessed Benni play was under very controversial circumstances in which the young seventeen-year-old, eyebrow-raising selection proved the then South African national team coach, Jomo Sono, to be right in picking the young lad. A true desire to make his mark saw him play with real …

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 …

Tony Battie of the Orlando Magic who is currently off the shelves for the season with a torn rotator calf injury would have helped the Magic further this season if he was healthy. Battie is a very good on the ball defender for the Center spot or the Power …

This guy Rich Thompson plays some Left Field, and some Center Field for the Indianapolis Indians. He is a very fast base runner, and is known for doubles, as well as quite a few stolen bases. Rich has been batting well recently, and has helped the Indians a lot. …

Andre Agassi one of tennis world’s best player is nearing the end of his career. From the days of those wild hairdos and the erratic behaviour he presented on and off the courts he has totally evolved into one of the class acts of the game. Now widely accepted …

The Toronto Raptors are lucky to have found and signed Carlos Delfino away from the Detroit Pistons. I really like this player. He is very tough, strong and quick and above all i just can’t imagine his persona to be the type that would shy away from a challenge. …

This tennis racket was and still is legendary in the 1980’s and the 90’s. Used by Michael Chang to win the US open, this is one of the best frames ever made in tennis. Available in three head sizes, 90, 93, 107 sq. inches the most popular of which …

Portland TrailBlazers which was probably the luckiest franchise there was 5 months ago has been the unluckiest so far this season. After seeing there prized possession Greg Oden injure his knee and undergoing the fearsome MicroFracture surgery. This surgery and the way Oden will come out of it will …

I really have no idea who the Seattle Supersonics start at Center at the very start of each and every game. Sometimes though the starter is a guy from Senegal in Mouhamed Sene. He is wide seven foot center who is very agile on the defensive end but has …

After a boring round of qualifying, the Men’s Snowboard Cross semi-finals and finals race were actually exciting. Now this could capture a person’s interest.
For the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics, there had been 34 competitors originally. Four never made it out of the boring individual qualifying. After …

After playing for the University of Kansas in the collegiate ranks and was a key player for that team, many people in the NBA sought Nick Collison. He was highly touted when he first came into the league as being a smart, witty player who gives you more that …

Mission cliffs is the biggest rock climbing gym in San Francisco and its immediate entourage. So mission cliffs is pretty big and offers quite a lot to climb.
I tend to go to this gym about once every 2-4 weeks and every time I come back some climbing wall has …

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 …

I was able to follow Mike Miller’s career when he was still in the University of the Florida Gators. Back then, it was pretty clear that he was destined to be a great three point shooter at any level. After playing just one year with the Gators, he decided …

Rather as I had feared, the 2010 World Cup Final proved to be a pretty disappointing affair, which will probably end up being remembered more for the enormous number of niggling fouls and yellow cards (fourteen, including two - and therefore a red - to one player) than for …

Matt Bonner of the San Antonio Spurs has produced big time numbers this season for them. When Duncan was out early in the season i was amazed to see the scorebox and notice that Bonner had 37 minutes in the game with 27 points, 17 rebounds and six assist. …

The Boston Celtics would have loved to have Delonte West as their starting point guard now but the Seattle Supersonics was adamant that he be a part of any deal involving Ray Allen who has been a fixture with the team for years and years now. Thus, the Celtics …

Some sports are hard to enjoy over television, and in my opinion, cross country events are in that category. The Men’s 15km Individual for the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics featured competitors from 50 nations. There were actually 96 skiers. It’s a timed race, with 15 seconds …

I have been playing disc golf for several years now, and I have putted with a variety of putters. I got my start like a lot of other players, putting with a distance driver or midrange disc. As I recall, I spent my first ten rounds or …

The “big Z” Zydraunas Ilguaskus of the Cleveland Cavaliers came into the league from lithuania and had really high expectations surrounding him. He is a seven foot three inch center who is very versatile and has a lot of moves in the pivot for chances of scoring. Although slightly …

First things first, I own this vise and use it every day. Something else you should know is that I have been tying flies since 1969. I have owned a few vices over the past 40 years and the Renzetti Traveler is the most useful and versatile vise I …
