Now that the Ravens are in need of a head coach, let’s take a look at what the new guy in charge will inherit.

Over a decade ago, Virgina Union had a nasty player in their mens basketball program that they knew was a phenominal player. Unfortunately for teams of the NBA, they found out about him too late. Ben Wallace is probably the best all around low post defender in the last …

Outside of Greg Oden in the Portland Trailblazer line-up, nobody has more of an upside than LaMarcus Aldridge. Although playing in just his second season in the league, Aldridge has already shown what future lies ahead of him. He is a very athletic guy who can get to the …

I don’t think Brett Favre is ever going to retire. It will be 2042 and Brett will roll out in his wheel chair and throw a 75 yard touchdown pass to the rookie wide receiver in space boots. Brett Favre is the heart and soul of the Green Bay …

I had the opportunity to play Tartan Pines in Enterprise for the second time and I certainly hope I get to play there again. The golf club is really a story of two nines. The front nine eases you in rather gently and then you are faced with a …

One thing that the Chicago Bulls have done right this season with their current slump is the signing of former number one overall pick in Joe Smith. I know that a lot of great expectations are meted out to a number one overall pick in any draft. And in …

The recent release of strong safety Donovan Darius should make him one of the top free agents on the NFL market and I expect him to attract attention from several teams.
The 31-year-old Darius is a solid run stopper and a fierce hitter, making him perfect for the strong safety …

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.
On the court though, …

One of the biggest reasons for the Packers run that nearly got them into the Super Bowl was the vast improvement of their defense. The guy who deserves the credit for that is defensive coordinator Bob Sanders.
Sanders put together a defense that absolutely smothered opposing offenses early on in …

When the Packers signed Charles Woodson as a free agent, I wasn�t sure what they were getting. But, as I�ve seen him play on the field, I have to admit he was worth every penny they paid him.
Now that he�s fully healthy, Woodson is proving he�s still a shut-down …

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 …

David Haye v Audley Harrison. It was a fight that was really dividing opinion. Haye had been inactive since winning the world title against Valuev and with nothing yet agreed with the Kiltchkos it was Audley that stole in to claim a deal.
My initial thought was why on earth …

Once upon a time, Scott Pollard of the Boston Celtics was a primary contributor in the NBA for the Sacramento Kings. It wasn’t that long ago as well. He was an integral part of what the Kings where trying to do. He came off the bench and gave Vlade …

After seeing the Packers playing Saturday, I came to two conclusions. They need to add veteran offensive linemen and the defense needs experience.
Judging from that performance, in which they only put up 3 points, I think it’ll be another long football season for them. However, they are young guys …

The Green Bay Packers recently signed tight end Donald Lee to a contract extension. After seeing him play this year, I have to say it was a great move.
The Packers had entered the season appearing to be thin at that position; especially after David Martin signed with the Miami …

I must say this is a phenomenal putter. They fixed up the black series to where it can compete with the other elite putters …

If you watched college basketball six years ago, you probably remember the Kentucky Wildcat’s tall and extremly thin player, Tayshaun Prince. If you don’t, just imagine a tree branch that can dribble, shoot and defend the basketball. I’m not kidding, Tayshaun is six foot nine and weighs like one …

Peyton Manning is the current starting quarterback for the Indianapolis Colts of the National Football League. I believe that Peyton Manning is the best quarterback of his generation. He has the most consistant play in the league, as he has lead the Colts to the playoffs every year for …

I compare Ben Gordon to that of former Piston the microwave Benny Johnson. Gordon started his career as a contributor off the bench and every time his number was called during the game he always often converts.
Gifted with extraordinary strength at the two guard position, Gordon also has …

For me, Camby is the best weak side help defender in the league. Majority of his blocks are made helping out. He has led the league in blocks the last couple of years and it shows the type of player Camby is. Although often injured with his slender build, …

The Houston Rockets for me the best duo in Yao Ming and Tracy McGrady. They are both tough offensive players who are very hard to stop. Now with the addition of Steve Francis and the development of Bonzi Wells in Rick Adelman’s offense, they should be a dominant factor …
