Dallas Cowboys 2008
This is the year.
This team is poised to win it all this season after a heartbreaking loss to a New York Giants team who caught fire JUST at the right time. The pass rush that NY presented on top of key dropped passes by Crayton lead to a …
Kyle Korver
In my opinion, Korver owns one of the quickest shots in the league history. He gets off his attempts pretty quickly therefore making it really difficult for a defender to block or at least challenge the shot.
He is also one of the best three point shooters in the …
Jean March Pingris
Marc Pingris is professional basketball player for the San Miguel Team in the Philippine Basketball Association. He is one of my favorite players outside of Purefoods and rightfully so. Pingris had some solid and quality seasons when he was playing for the Purefoods Chunkee Giants.

Lebron James and The Yankees
Everyone that knows me knows that I am not a fan of Lebron James. He is a good ball player but there are better athletes in the NBA. I am not known to stick up for anything that Lebron does, but I do need to review on his actions …
George Steinbrenner Field
George Steinbrenner Field on Tampa Bay is one of the nicest and biggest ballparks I’ve ever been too for a minor league game. I enjoyed the atmosphere of the people that worked there and the people at the game more than usual. The employees were very curtious, even with …
Yao Ming
If you put the two and two together with a seven foot six inch tall center, and an athlete, the sports equation would probably equal = clutz. This isn’t the case with the Houston Rockets center, Yao Ming. Yao is known world wide. Hailing from China, the gifted athletic …

Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics - Speed Skating - Women’s 1500m
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 …

Damon Stoudamire
Damon Stoudamire of the Memphis Grizzlies is one of the most quickest point guards there was in the NBA. With age catching up with him though he has slowly declined and his contributions are lower than what they used to be. Still Stoudamire is a serviceable point guard at …
Benni McCarthy South African Soccer Player
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 …
Cristiano Ronaldo Soccer Player
Christiano Ronaldo, the most important player in Manchester United has been transferred to Real Madrid in this season 2009-2010. At the beginning of his career in Manchester United, I think he still tried to tune in with the speed and rhythm of United’s playing style. He joined Manchester United …
Barcelona v Real Madrid - El Clasico - 2010/11 Season
The clue here was always going to be in the title. The first El Clasico of the 2010/11 season saw Barcelona face Real Madrid in the Nou Camp. Both sides have world class players, great managers and both were enjoying a really good start to this season.
The rivalry for …
Sasha Pavlovic

J.J. Redick
When I think of the Duke University Blue Devils I think of one name, J.J. Redick. And when I think of J.J. Redick, I think of four words, “Buckets and more buckets.” Okay, I think of three more too, “Nothing but net.” Redick is one of the most fantastically …
MLB Baseball coverage for personal computers
I am a big fan of baseball at any level.
For the last couple of years, I’ve subscribed to On Demand’s baseball coverage on cable. This service has let me watch baseball games when I’m sitting in front of my TV, but frankly it was expensive.
This year I subscribed to …
David Carr
It�s now week 11 of the NFL season and the Carolina Panthers are trying to decide who to start at quarterback. The fact they have to think about it really makes me doubt David Carr will be in the league much longer.
When he was quarterbacking for the Houston Texans, …
2008 Chicago Bears
Two years ago, the Chicago Bears were the team to beat in the NFC and were good enough to win a Super Bowl (though they ended up losing it).
This year, I really can’t see this team being anything more than a bottom feeder in the NFL.
I don’t even know …

Memphis is home to more than the blues and country music. They serve more there than some good southern barbeque. Memphis is home to the Tigers, a NCAA mens basketball division 1 team. And on that team that is rarely known to most people, they do have some talent. …
Eddie House
Eddie House of the Boston Celtics is one of the most gifted quick shooters in the league today. I remember him when he was still playing for the Arizona Wildcats in his collegiate career and he scored like over 50 points in one game. I though he was gonna …
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 …

Anti-Hero Skateboard Deck
I bought an Anti-Hero skateboard deck about 3 months ago, and I have to say, it’s one of the most durable decks I have owned! Here’s the breakdown.
Looks: Excellent, I got the “Nothing’s Free” deck, costed the same as any other deck ($45). Very detailed eagle design, made me …

Stephen Jackson
One of the key figures in that infamous November brawl at the palace of auburn hills that greatly shamed not just the league but the players involved as well, Stephen Jackson is a very temperamental player who plays with his heart on his sleeve. He constantly blames and ridicules …
Packers 2006 scrimmage
It’s hard to draw any real conclusions from a team scrimmage (I’m reserving final judgement for preseason) but, from what I did see, the team looks much sharper than it did at this time last year.
Brett Favre was very accurate during the scrimmage and even managed to throw for …
2008 New York Jets
With the acquisition of Brett Favre at quarterback, many people might think the New York Jets have finally taken steps to become a legitimate AFC playoff contender. I’m not so sure that’s the case.
Favre does provide a legitimate upgrade over Chad Pennington and Kellen Clemons both because he has …
Jeff Green
Jeff Green who was drafted as the fifth overall pick in this year’s draft by the Boston Celtics and was traded immediately to the Seattle Supersonics for Ray Allen is one of the better Rookies out there today. He comes off the bench for the Seattle Supersonics and produces …
Discraft Buzz disc golf driver

Michael Doleac
Michael Doleac of the Minnesota Timberwolves is a solid back-up Center who started his career with the Orlando Magic as a high first round pick for them. And in that sense that he is a first round pick i think he will be considered a disappointment in the league.

Adidas F50 Adizero TRX FG Leather Cleats

General Manager of the Los Angeles Lakers Mitch Kupchak has been much maligned for the moves or the lack thereof that he has made as the team’s decision maker. The botched trade between the Lakers and the New Jersey Nets that would have netted them All star point guard …
Warrick Dunn
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 …
