Wrestler: Big Dave
I’ve had the pleasure of seeing this goliath of a man Live, and one of the only people in British Wrestling who is bigger than him, is his tag-team partner, Bulk! He was a great man as a person, and in the ring, known as the UK Pitbulls, they …
Scottie Pippen
Scottie Pippen was one of my favorite NBA players of all time. Not because he was Michael Jordan’s sidekick but also he was one of the most versatile players of the game. Pippen is long and plays with such smarts that he was the ultimate complimentary player to a …
Aaron Rodgers
I finally got a chance to see Packers back up quarterback Aaron Rodgers play yesterday after starter Brett Favre got hurt against the Patriots.
From what I saw, in roughly one half of play, I’m not sold on him as the team’s future starter.
Granted, taking over during a 21-0 blowout …
Wrestling Programming
I have been a wrestling fan for many years, but when the Rock stopped wrestling I no longer watched it anymore because I could see that the quality of the sport was not the same as it used to be in the days of Hart vs Bulldog in 1992. …
300 Bowling alley at Chelsea Piers
The bowling alley at Chelsea Piers is huge! There are a bunch of lanes and the overall space is really big. When you get there a person is there to greet you and then another person escorts you over to the shoe rental where you get your shoes and …
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 …
Bonfire Radiant Snowboard Jacket
I recently bought the Bonfire Radiant snowboard jacket and after a few weeks use thought it was worthy of a review.
I bought this mainly to use for work as I work outdoors in all weathers I needed something that would keep me dry and warm while still being breathable …
New York Knicks:Summer 2010
The New York Knicks certainly were not considered an elite franchise for the past 9 years. The NBA always criticizing the moves the franchise made up until two years ago when Donnie Walsh took over as team president. From the day he started working he had two goals; one …
Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics - Ice Dancing - Compulsory Dance
Every team skates to the same dance, doing two rotations on the rink. It’s a contest of technique. It’s much more of the classical ice dancing that I grew up watching versus the free style post-Bolero entry that changed the sport forever. It’s really a head …
Bally Arm Slimmers
Bally Arm Slimmers made by Bally is available online at Amazon. I bought it for $15 because the price is lower in Amazon than anywhere else. It arrived after 15 days, after which I wore it twice a day for 1 hour.
My arms were not that big, but …
John Beck
Any team drafting Brigham Young quarterback John Beck this season should do so with the realization he’ll have to sit on the bench for a couple of seasons before he’s ready to start a game. However, once he has time to develop, he should be a decent starter.
BYU runs …
Wrestler Chris Hero
I first spotted Chris Hero in a short lived tag-team with his real life friend, CM Punk, who is now on the ECW brand of World Wrestling Entertainment. Chris Hero has amazing potential, and looking back, I find it hard to grasp that only CM Punk was signed and …
Kyle Busch Fan Club
I love Kyle Busch, but I never joined his fan club before. I couldn’t get myself to pay any money that would possibly go to Hendrick Motorsports. When he switched to Joe Gibbs Racing I thought about joining the fan club and kept putting it off. Then I somehow …
Chris Richard
Chris Richard out of the Florida Gators in the collegiate ranks has had a great career there and has just started his pro career with the Minnesota Timberwolves and has seen very little playing time for now. I think the Twolves though are just waiting for him to mature …
Steve Blake
As part of the one/two guard punch for the Maryland Terrapins national championship winning basketball team a few years ago, Steve Blake was a surprisingly athletic player. The six foot three inch point guard did everything he could for Maryland to win that year, and the NBA scouts took …
Jonty Rhodes
Jonty Rhodes is the best fielder world every produced. He is from south Africa. He was a useful middle order bats man from south Africa and contributed often an important occasion for the country. But he was always known for his brilliant fielding. He was quick as a tiger …
US Open 2008: Federer vs. Murray
An up and coming youngster from Britain and a fading champion from Switzerland (in the eyes of most critics anyway) stood face to face at one of the grandest of stages in tennis with one itching to win his first ever career grand slam and the other, determined to …
Anthony Carter
Anthony Carter, man has he been in the league for so long. I remember him as a Rookie dogging it out for the Miami Heat on the Tim Hardaway era. He was their back-up point guard back then and he played the same then to the way his playing …
Clive Potter’s Sil Lum Tao DVD
Wing Chun is probably the most popular style of traditional Kung Fu in the world today. In great part, this is because Bruce Lee studied the art in his teenage years. While the association with Bruce Lee certainly helped expand the popularity of the art, if Wing Chun did …
Alando Tucker
Alando Tucker of the Phoenix Suns is the team’s draftee in this year’s NBA draft. He is a solid rookie for the team but has seen very little playing time for now. The Phoenix Suns who will have to use new blood soon as the veterans that they have …
Dunlop Aerogel 4D Super Lite tennis racket
I do play tennis once in a while. I am not really an expert but I think I love this game which to me is quite challenging. It tests my speed in movement and responding. Although playing tennis has been quite occasional to me, every time my …
Lush Longboards Mako Longboard
I started longboarding because it’s a great crossover sport for surfers or snowboarders looking for something to do when they can’t get to the snow or surf.
This board I bought is a Lush Mako made by the British company Lush Longboards it is a 44″ pintail shape board made …
COLEMAN KING SIZE SLEEPING BAG
A sleeping bag that is really big enough to feel comfortable for large or small people is an important sport’s item! The Issaquah, 25 degree farenheit sleeping bag is just this, and is really warm and cozy.
This sleeping bag has a diamond ripstop cover, and a 100% cotton flannel …
Randy Foye
Randy Foye whom the Minnesota Timberwolves drafted last year in the Rookie draft is a good player to have in your team. I doubt if he has already tapped half of his potential already. Teaming up with Rashad McCants to form their backcourt of the future. And that would …
Hendrick Race Shop
Hendrick Motorsports is the operational center for the NASCAR race team including both their Cup and Nationwide Series teams. They have several areas and buildings of their team open to the public and we recently had the chance to take the tour of their facilities. Though I’m not a …
Pacquiao Vs Clottey - Boxing Flop of the Century
Last Sunday, everyone was at a stand still, waiting for the fight, that was supposed to be one of the greatest and hardest for pound for pound Filipino Boxer Manny Pacquiao since his opponent was supposed to be bigger and stronger. Many paid good money just to be …
Hedo Turkoglo
Known back in his homeland as the turkish shooter, Hedo Turkoglo of the Orlando Magic has all the attributes of becoming a bona-fide NBA superstar. For me, Turkoglo has the size at 6′10′, the shooting range and the talent to become an all star in the NBA. What i …
Juan Carlos Navarro
The first player off the bench of the Memphis Grizzlies is Spanish import Juan Carlos Navarro a teammate of Center Pau Gasol for the Spanish National team who is the current defending champions in the world. Navarro who plays a vital role for Spain’s National team also has integrated …
Sam Vincent
The Charlotte Bobcats confuse me, where they the Charlotte Hornetts once? I don’t really know. I can’t keep up with the way basketball is moving. Now the Hornetts are the New Orleans Hornetts and Baron Davis plays for Golden State. The only thing I know for sure about the …
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 …
Manu Ginobili
When it comes to the San Antonio Spurs prized backup shooting guard, Manu Ginobili, I’ve found myself with egg on my face a few times. The first time, I confused his last name, Ginobili, with an Italian name and assumed that’s where he hailed from. The second time, was …
Fred Smoot
The Vikings stoked their defensive fire with Smoot in 2005, hoping that he’ll be able to fire up a secondary that ranked 29th against the pass in 2004. The standout from Mississippi State tallied three interceptions and 13 passes defensed in 2004. Smoot is a great player that definetly …
Worcester Race Course
We like going to watch the horse racing and our local racecourse is at Worcester down by the river Severn. The course is a very nice course but it does have limited facilities. The course is very picturesque and it is lovely to go racing there in …
David Haye v Enzo Maccarinelli
They were both British, they were both champions in the same division and they both wanted to be recognised as the best. The problem was, they seemed to get on relatively well and have slightly different visions of when and where a possible fight between the two could take …
Jennifer Capriyati
Capriyati is one of the most popular player from USA. Her carrier has been of roller costar like. She saw many twist and terns in her carrier. She used to be on the top 4 player earlier but was never able to become world no.1. After some time, she …
Cutino Mobley
Started his career as an unheralded second round pick for the houston Rockets, Mobley has carved up a career in the league as a valuable three point shooter. He stretches the floor for the interior guys to do their work inside. He is a perfect compliment for a team …
Virendra Sehwag
Sehwag is a aggressive right hand Indian batsman. He opens innings for India in ODIs. He is good player and he got a good strike rate. When he click he can win match his own. But the problem with his consistency of yet he has been absolutely out of …
New York Jets Preseason
Now that training camps are starting, I’m taking a look at the NFL and looking at each team individually.
I’m currently looking at the AFC East and what could be an interesting division to watch this year. One of those teams is the New York Jets.
Last season, the Jets took …
Gary Kubiak
I don’t think there is a coach in the entire National Football League who has it tougher than Houston Texans coach Gary Kubiak. Though he is a very smart man with a great game plan and approach to the game, the talent he has in Houston is minimal at …
Chauncey Billups
Since the start of the NBA long, long ago, the point guard has always been to basketball what the quarterback is to football. They control the ball and set up the plays. Pass to whoevers open and try to score points and give their team the best chance to …
Dirk Nowitzki
Dirk. The name of the Dallas Mavericks player and his sister. (According to Dirk in a movie he had a role in) There’s not a whole lot I can say abouot Dirk Nowitzki without become upset. I liken him to the NBA version of Ryan Leaf… only Dirk is …
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 …
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 …
Andre Igoudala
Andre Igoudala was a terrific pick for the Philadelphia 76ers. Coming out of college, he was not really regarded that high outside from the fact that he can fly. He was primarily known as a high flier rather than a all around offensive player.
Since then though, Igoudala has …
Jerome James
Jerome James signing of the New York Knicks is one of the most stupid, dumb and outright disgraceful move of any General Managers in NBA history. Jerome James played for four years with the Seattle Supersonics and produced nothing in those four years except for a couple of strong …
Chiefland Golf Course and Country Club
We had a lot of fun at this golf course that is open to the public. We started by asking for a tee time and the pro shop reported that most members showed up after nine o’clock so to just come.
We did so on a Monday and found …
Discraft Buzz disc golf driver
I have been playing disc golf for several years now, and I definitely seem to favor Innova discs. However, there is one disc by Discraft that is unparalleled. I’m talking about the Buzz. I don’t even know how to give the Buzz a good enough introduction. …
Luis Scola
The second oldest rookie in the NBA this year, Luis Scola who was drafted originally by the San Antonio Spurs and is now playing for the Houston Rockets after a summer trade that sent him there is probably a hidden gem. My prediction will be that the Spurs will …
Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics - Women’s Super-G
Julia Mancuso from the USA was the first to make the attempt down the hill for the Women’s Super-G event in the 2010 Winter Olympics at Vancouver. This is the event where skiers don’t get to take any trial runs down the hill and only get to inspect …
Wrestler: Chris Sabin
Chris Sabin is currently one of my favorite professional wrestlers in Total Nonstop Action Wrestling. He can currently be found tag teaming with his partner Alex Shelley, under the mentoring of their manager, the Legendary Kevin Nash, under the name ‘The Motor City Machine Guns.’ Chris Sabin, while primarily …
