2007 Rose Bowl
This game can hardly be touted as the 2nd best bowl games of the year.
Michigan and USC is the BCS game I wanted to see, but Ohio State is #1 for sure and Florida isn’t my team by far and I don’t enjoy watching them this year.
2007 Rose Bowl …
Todd Pinkston
The Eagles survived a tough test in Week 7 of 2004 when the Browns made enough plays in the fourth quarter to force overtime. Pinkston made six catches for 100 yards with David Akers booting the game winner from 50 yards out in their team’s 34-31 victory. Pinkston has …
Luther Head
Luther Head who was drafted by the Houston Rockets started the season in a slump early. I remember drafting him on some of my deeper fantasy league teams and was really pissed at myself for doing so when he produced something like three points in his first five games. …
NASCAR - Goody’s Fast Pain Relief 500 3-29-09
It’s short track racing again for the 43 drivers of the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series. Rain had washed out practices and qualifying on Friday and Saturday, so the track was raw as the race began. By virtue of being the points leader, Jeff Gordon was on the …

2010 NASCAR Bud Shootout race
It was 75 laps as always for the annual Bud Shootout that commences the racing action for those in NASCAR’s Sprint Cup Series. Carl Edwards was on the pole, a result of a good draw in the Shootout Pole show. It’s not a technical accomplishment, but a …
Manchester United v Arsenal - 2004 FA Cup Semi-Final
In 2004, one of the FA Cup semi-finals was worthy of being the actual final due to the size of both clubs involved, Manchester United and Arsenal.
Manchester United had dominated the 90’s which as a fan was excellent for me, but Arsenal had often been a main rival as …
Eddy Curry
Eddy Curry is an intriguing talent and some sort of a tease to his coaching staff. He has the body, the size and strength to be a dominant force in the League but has so far been limited to mediocre at best. He has a decent turn-around shot from …
Re-examining the Minnesota Vikings
Just before preseason, I took a look at the Minnesota Vikings and thought they were an overrated team; especially since they didn’t have an answer at the quarterback position. Then they signed Brett Favre and are now off to a 2-0 start.
You know what, they are better than I …

NASCAR - the top 35 rule
For most of its history, NASCAR races featured drivers who raced their way into the field. Regardless of the number of drivers in a race (and it did vary until the last ten years or so), the field was set by qualifying. For the most part, if …
Nike Tour Cart Bag - 2009
This is the best cart bag that Nike has to offer. It was made in 2009 and unfortunately, they are making another one for the 2010 season which was slightly modified (not for the best).
The 2009 Nike Tour Cart Bag is phenomenally created. It is basically made from high …
Amare Stoudemire

Peter June Simon of Purefoods Giants
In the Purefoods TJ Giant’s current line-up, there is no more exciting player to watch then Peter June Simon. He is, in my opinion, the most effective guard in the league today.
Simon is a testimony of hard-work, discipline and perseverance. In his early years as a professional basketball …
Chris Paul
Chris Paul of the New Orleans Hornets was designated as the point guard of the future for the NBA. He was selected as the fourth overall pick and he won the rookie of the year award that year. What i like about his game is the vision that his …
Jason Hart
Jason Hart who is the back-up point guard to Deron Williams for the Utah Jazz is one solid point guard. He has had great play-off success as a back up point guard in the league as he is never a starter material anyway. He has played in San Antonio …
Jamaal Crawford
New York Knick guard Jamaal Crawford is much maligned for his lack of maturity in his NBA career. And, playing on the spotlight at the “Mecca of Basketball” with the knicks at Madison Square Garden, all his mistakes are often magnified to highlight the negative part of his game. …

Penny Skateboards 22.5 x 6″
Upon purchasing my first penny skateboard I was stoked! I had never owned one personally but pretty much was born on a skateboard so I had ridden some in the past from the small 22.5’s to the wider ones I believe to be called nickles which makes since when …
Peter Boulware
By creating a clear path to the passer with a series of spins, shakes, and shoves, Boulware has become a familiar presence in the opposing backfield. He had 8.5 sacks and caused three fumbles in 2003. Boulware, out of Florida State University was drafted in the first round of …
Chucky Atkins
Highly Explosive point guard Chucky Atkins of the Memphis grizzlies has come a long way from those days early in his career where he was struggling for playing time and his minutes usually was coming off the bench. Atkins has great speed with or without the ball, he uses …
Formula 1 Malaysian Grand Prix race
From Kuala Lumpur, the 2010 Malaysian Grand Prix was more exciting than most F1 races in my opinion. In fact, after watching some early action and seeing Lewis Hamilton get a warning, my thought was that they need to revisit the blocking rule and let the drivers race. …
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 …
Nick Markakis
The Baltimore Orioles are in a rebuilding mode, as they have been for many more years than I would like to admit. We have a few prospects and young players that have the potential for being outstanding if these players are given the chance to prove themselves and …

2010 NASCAR Nationwide Sam’s Town 300 race
The 2010 NASCAR Nationwide Sam’s Town 300 race just didn’t hold my interest today while it was on. The event was rain delayed for about 90 minutes, and it was a dreary day here as well, so maybe that had some subliminal effect on my reaction.
It could be …

Ever since the teams of the 90’s, the Buffalo Bills have struggled to have a winning season. With their mystique in question, they added a new quarterback to the fold. J.P. Losman, a 6 foot 2 quarterback out of Tulane university. He’s no Jim Kelly and the fans know …
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 …

Manchester United v Barcelona - 2009 European Cup Final

The year before, my club Manchester United had won the Premier League and European Cup double and they were 90 minutes from …
Pat Garrity
Pat Garrity of the Orlando Magic is one of the best shooters in the game today. The only problem is that’s about the only thing he does on a basketball court. He contributes very little on other aspects of the game and his vigor to improve himself has slowly …
David Haye v John Ruiz
When David Haye entered the heavyweight division, many wondered if he really had the punching power and size to live with other heavyweights already around. People were forgetting though that this division had not really been alive and well for several years though, so Haye was making it his …
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.
