Paddy Power Poker

I’d like to start off by saying that I asked customer service for help …
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 …
Pittsburgh Steelers
Considering they won the AFC North title, you would think the Steelers would be a favorite to get past the first round of the playoffs and even surprise higher seeded teams.
I don�t think that�s the case. I think they were lucky to make it into the playoffs but …
Chad Pennington
With the New York Jets trying to figure out exactly what went wrong this past season, you can bet one of the future casualties will be former starting quarterback Chad Pennington.
In some ways, I feel Pennington is being turned into the scape goat for what was a horrible season …
Plaxico Burress
Most recently known as the guy who helped Eli Manning and the New York Giants get to the super bowl, Plaxico Burress wasn’t always highly regarded as a hero. In fact, during his first year with the Pittsburgh Steelers, Plaxico was tackled by a phantom after a catch, stood …

The United States National Figure Skating Championships - Women’s
With the Olympics weeks away, The United States National Figure Skating Championships were held in January 2010, and I have a few comments about all that went down.
First up, Sasha Cohen, who after four years away decided to make a big comeback, though she had done virtually nothing to …
Quentin Richardson
I have a friend named Quentin Richardson. Of course, growing up with him, we didn’t know that there would one day be a professional basketball player that shared the same name. But once there was, we used to incessantly tease him. I don’t think he minded at the time, …
Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics - Women’s 12.5m Pursuit biathlon
The Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympic games continued its biathlon events with the Women’s 12.5 Pursuit Mass Start. I prefer the mass starts over the individual, separated timed events. I want to see competition, fast and furious. It leads to more thrills and excitement, and that’s what …

England v France - Friendly November 2010
It was due to be Englands first major test since their awful World Cup campaign in South Africa. They had played a couple of qualifying games that had not been especially impressive, but now it was France at Wembley. No one really appeared too concerned in the build up. …
James Jones

Kelenna Azubuiki
Kelenna Azubuiki is often called the french gentleman. In my great surprise Azubuiki has become an amazing player for the Golden State Warriors. He is averaging double digits in points and contributes heavily on the rebounding and the assist department as well.

Red Bull Racing Formula One team
Red Bull Racing are, as I write this in the spring of 2010, a bit of an enigma when it comes to Formula One teams. By rights they ought to be streaking away with the world championship, since they have two extremely fast drivers in Mark Webber and Sebastian …
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 …

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. …
Kevin Garnett(Minnesota Timberwolves)

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 …

I must say this is a phenomenal putter. They fixed up the black series to where it can compete with the other elite putters …
Luke Walton
If you’ve been watching NBA games in the past decade or so, then you probably know Bill Walton’s voice. I know, it is kind of annoying after about three words. But apart from being that pretentious, rhetoric spraying sports accouncer, he is also a few more things. He is …
UFC 127 (Penn vs. Fitch)
UFC 127 was a good card. In this review I’m only going to talk about the main event, B.J. Penn vs. Jon Fitch. As soon as the bell rang, Penn charged out strong, throwing a few punches, then to everyone’s surprise, shooting for a take down. Fitch initially fought …

Carlito is a brilliant talent in both the terms of Wrestling Ability and Microphone skills. Essentially he is a total package and is obviously destined for the main event in due time. He is the son of Carlos Colon, so what would you expect other than pure greatness in …
Holland v Spain - 2010 World Cup Final
Who would have thought that 20 years after my first experience of a World Cup Final, that we would be faced with a very similar scenario. Back in 1990 I was 8, fortunately my son was only 5 and so he didn’t watch this final like I had 20 …

Zinedine Yazid Zidane, Retired French Soccer Player
By far the best footballer I have ever seen in my time, although I was not privileged enough to catch all of the best games Zidane played in.
My first real encounter with the magical touch of Zinedine Zidane was during the 1998 FIFA World Cup, when he almost single …
Roger Goodell
When the NFL named Roger Goodell as their commissioner, I had high hopes for him. However, after the last couple of years under his management, I really have to question the choice.
Goodell’s best move to date is his effort to clean up the off-the-field problems that have plagued the …

Louis Amundson
The Philadelphia 76ers have never really been a legitimate contender for anything in the past twenty plus years. Their team a few years ago with Allen Iverson was decent, getting to the finals against the Los Angeles Lakers, only to be knocked out in five games. Since then, the …
Gary Stills
A standout special teams performer, Stills was added to the AFC Pro Bowl squad as a replacement for Adalius Thomas after tallying 29 special teams tackles in 2003, second only to his club-record 34 in 2002. The defensive end also chipped in three sacks for the Chiefs. Stills is …
Marcus Camby
The New York Knicks once had a power house team that competed in the playoffs every year. With Patrick Ewing, Larry Johnson, Anthony Mason, and a young Marcus Camby, the Knicks seemed poise to win an NBA championship. I’m not exactly sure how that team fell apart, but fall …

NASCAR Nationwide Race June 7, 2008

Aaron Brooks
I recently learned quarterback Aaron Brooks was in Green Bay trying out for the Packers. I haven�t decided if this is a good thing or a bad thing.
Brooks has the potential to be a good quarterback. He has a strong arm and the ability to move around in the …
Shaq
Shaquille O’neal, probably the most popular basketball icon since michael Jordan was and continues to be a dominant force for the Miami Heat. Although a lot of critics has been up and about with regards to his slowly declining game, Shag continues to dominate on sporadic basis. For a …
Brady Quinn
The biggest thing Notre Dame quarterback Brady Quinn has going for him is the fact he was coached by Charlie Weis, the guy who turned Tom Brady, an unknown 6th round draft pick, into a star.
Physically, I think Brady is only second to JaMarcus Russell in this year’s draft. …
