Jason Richardson
Golden State Warriors two-guard Jason Richardson who won the slam dunk contest two years in a row is more than just dunking. His game has superstar potential written all over it. His great leaping ability is his main asset and in the slam dunk competition no one is better …
Foxsports.com/basketball
Foxsports.com/NBA to me as an avid NBA basketball supporter is the ultimate site/source for any NBA related news. I just live foxsports. They give you these account (for free i must add) that enables you to choose your favorite team and players so that every time you load foxsports …
Quincy Douby
Quincy Douby of the Sacramento Kings is entering his second season and has shown some positive strides in the league so far. I admire the fact that he is a very hard worker on and off the court and as i heard even on the practice sessions he is …
Edelweiss Liquid Chalk, 250ml
Edelweiss’s product is the first and only liquid chalk I have ever tried. I’ve always used chalk balls in the past but my new indoor climbing gym insists on the liquid variety - and for good reason.
I was happy to make the purchase because using liquid chalk, of any …
Tippmann 98 Custom Flatline Barrel
After getting this barrel, I was kind of frustrated that I didn’t get the quick line thread. I constantly am changing between barrels, and every once in a while I’ll need to take the flatline barrel off, which is a complete pain because sometimes it requires completely disassembling my …
Mike Miller
I was able to follow Mike Miller’s career when he was still in the University of the Florida Gators. Back then, it was pretty clear that he was destined to be a great three point shooter at any level. After playing just one year with the Gators, he decided …
Wrestler: Carlito
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 …
Damon Jones
Damon Jones of the cleveland cavaliers was highly disappointing playing in his first season for the cavs after being signed to a multi year deal following a great season with the Miami heat. He was pivotal with the Heat’s run during the play-offs and was really an integral part …
Marcy Exercise Bike
My wife decided to buy a Marcy Exercise Bike a few years ago, as a way of getting into shape. Like most pieces of gym equipment she has purchased, it ended up in a corner of our house and was used more as a coat rack than anything else.
Well, …
NASCAR Bud Shootout Race
In 2009, the NASCAR Bud Shootout Race has been changed, and I’m not sure it’s a good one. In fact, it just feels like one great big car manufacturer commercial.
In previous years, those participating in this very first race of the season were poll setters from the prior …
2010 NASCAR Camping World Truck Series 200 race
Atlanta Motor Speedway was the host to the 2010 NASCAR Camping World Truck Series 200. Owning his own team this year, it was Kyle Busch on the pole. Of note was the debut of Steven Wallace. While he drives regularly in the Nationwide Series, he’s never …
Pete Sampras
Legendary Tennis superstar Pete Sampras who’s considered to be the greatest player of all-time retired on 2002 at age 33 and at the peak of his game after winning the US open. Sampras was a class act on and off the court and was/still is a great ambassador for …
Ryan Bowen
Ryan Bowen of the New Orleans Hornets is a serviceable big man who can cover the opposing team’s best biggies in the shaded area and can hold himself. He is a very hard working man a fact that i saw in the NBA JAM show which featured him back …
Luke Jackson
The Miami Heat waived long time guard/forward in the NBA Penny Hardaway to open a roster spot in signing Luke Jackson. Jackson played in the NBDL and was highly regarded when he first came into the NBA. He was a former first round selection by the Cleveland Cavaliers and …
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 …
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. …
Re-examining the Green Bay Packers
Not too long ago, I took a post-draft look at each of the NFL teams, including the Green Bay Packers and discussed what I liked and disliked about each. Now that the teams have each played two games, I have a better feel for what they have to offer …
Chicago Bulls
The Chicago Bulls have struggled mightily this year to start the new season which confuses me greatly since they have a great line-up on the floor. I am really lost as to what happened to them this year so far. As an avid NBA fan and a great follower …
Buffalo Run Golf Course
I have been looking for a golf course that is in Calgary, not outside the city, and that is also appropriate for a beginner golfer like me-in other words, a golf course that has holes that are not too difficult, and one that is perhaps not going to attract …
Wrestler: Chris Benoit
Chris Benoit was one of the greatest professional wrestlers ever to grace our fair sport, since the first day I saw him wrestle on an edition of WCW Nitro, I was an immediate fan, and later found out he was a HUGE fan of The Dynamite Kid Tommy Billington, …
Heelys Wave Shoes for Women
Heelys have long been shoes that were made for children and teens, but recently the company began making the wheeled shoes for adults. Reading about how the shoes could be used in sport and to increase fitness, I decided to buy a pair and learn how to Heely. I …
Devin Harris
Devin Harris of the Dallas Mavericks in my opinion is one of the most speedy point guards out there today. He has this quick burst of speed that leaves defenders behind. Harris is a valuable part of the Mavericks drive to the championship. I’ve seen him a couple of …
Reggie Brown
After Terrell Owens left the Eagles for less green pastures, The Philadelphia footballers have been really struggling. Not able to find a decent receiver in the lot, Donovan McNabb has unfairly been taking the blame for the teams decline. There is a decent playing among them however. Reggie Brown, …
Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics - Men’s 15km Individual
Some sports are hard to enjoy over television, and in my opinion, cross country events are in that category. The Men’s 15km Individual for the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics featured competitors from 50 nations. There were actually 96 skiers. It’s a timed race, with 15 seconds …
Ravens vs. Packers Monday Night Football 12/7/09
The outcome of this game will, obviously, depend on which side you were rooting for. I, as a Ravens fan, did not like this game.
Putting aside my own fandom, one thing everyone noticed was the insane amount of penalties. They actually managed to get over …
Rangers v Manchester United - European Champions League 2010/11 Season
If you are a fan of football, then watching Manchester United play Rangers in the European Champions League in the 2010/11 season has been no great spectacle. Manchester United were the huge favourites when on the way to Ibrox, but having watched Rangers defend for 90 minutes at old …
Hockey - thumbs up or thumbs down
When I was a kid, I tried to like hockey, I really did. My uncle was into sports big time, and he liked hockey a lot. He took me to a game once, and I really wanted to enjoy it. The problem was, I just couldn’t follow …
Anfernee “penny” Hardaway
Once considered as the heir apparent to Micheal Jordan, Penny Hardaway was primed for bigtime even in the collegiate ranks where he played for the University Of Memphis. Hardaway entered the league after being drafted 3rd overall by the Warriors. He was then sent to the Orlando Magic on …
Richmond NASCAR Race 05/03/2008
Saturday night racing is always an interesting thing. When you throw in 43 cars on the short track in Richmond, Virginia the race becomes something completely different and a whole lot more interesting. This year’s spring race at Richmond was Denny Hamlin’s race to win, and by extension his …
Rizwan Cheema
Canadian cricket team has always been a lower rung team in the cricketing world. With the status of an associate member of International Cricket Council, it has rarely been in the news except may be in the 2003 World Cup when John Davison got the fastest World Cup century. …
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 …
Seattle Seahawks
While the Seattle Seahawks enter the NFC playoffs as the 3rd seed, I have to think they are entering as one of the weaker teams in the post season.
The Seahawks were able to dominate their division but there aren�t many teams in their division with more than a few …
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 …
Dale Earnhardt Boxed Set
I received the Dale Earnhardt boxed set as a present from someone who knew I was a NASCAR fan. Unfortunately they didn’t realize that I didn’t start watching the sport until after he died and even then I couldn’t understand why so many people loved him. I ended up …
Wrestler: Andre The Giant
When you mention the word Legend in professional Wrestling, when you mention the word Epic Battles, Epic Victories over a gigantic human being, when you mention the most famous and most anticipated match in wrestling history, you immediately think Andre The Giant Vs Hulk Hogan at Wrestlemania 3.
Andre The …
Maurice Evans
A player that came with that deal for the Orlando Magic and the Los Angeles Lakers is swingman Maurice Evans who came with Brian Cook for Trevor Ariza. Evans was supposedly a player thrown in that deal to make it work financially for both teams but so far he …
NASCAR - Bud Shootout Practice #1 2010
There’s been a lot of changes to NASCAR over the off season and now the boys of thunder are getting back onto the track for the first time in official racing. Today two practices were held for the Bud Shootout, a 75 lap race broken into two segments.
I …
Shane Battier
Recently acquired by the Houston Rockets, Shane Battier is the NBA?s version of a workhorse. He often does the dirty things and at times be very functional on offense. Came from a solid organization under the tutelage of Mike kzywzyski at Duke University, Battier has taken the role …
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 …
Alonzo Mourning
Probably one of the best shot blocking big man to ever play the game. He has great timing and before he had kidney transplant, Mourning was an unstoppable force in the middle. He owned an array of shots and abilities with either facing up or posting down low in …
Coral Cliffs Golf Course
Coral Cliffs Golf Course in Kanab, Utah will not qualify as one of the world’s greatest golf links, and may never sponsor a major tournament, but it is a nice little 9-hole course for those who just want to get on and play a few holes without having to …
Julian Wright
NBA rookie Julian Wright of the New Orleans Hornets has a very good upside in his game. He has a body much like Tracy McGrady of the Houston Rockets and in the preseason i was in their practice facility looking at some of their scrimmages and i could say …
Roger Federer
Tennis great Roger Federer has dominated the game of tenns the last three years now. Outside of the French Open where he has a hard time getting by Arch Nemesis Rafael Nadal who specializes in Clay courts, Federer is virtually unbeabtable in grass and hard courts. He has won …
James Jones
Phoenix Suns forward James Jones owns one of the quickest releasing shot in the NBA and is quite accuarte with it as well. Under the handling of Reggie Miller whome he played with and mentored him when he was still with the Indiana Pacers, Jones has taken up the …
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 …
Phoenix Suns
Big names and Big games is what comes to mind if people mention the Phoenix Suns to me. With a fearsome trio of Steve Nash, Shawn Marion and Amare Stoudemire the suns have the most dynamic team in the league. And the scary part is the fact that you …
San Antonio Spurs
The San Antonio Spurs is the ultimate NBA team this decade. Coached by Greg Popovich who teaches team play and team oriented defense, the Spurs have mastered the art of winning ugly in my humble estimation. I saw a poll in ESPN one time and it ranked the Spurs …
Sean Williams
The Bruins of Boston College were a great team in the NCAA mens division 1 basketball tournament last year. And the main part of their well oiled machine was the six foot ten inch power forward slash small center, Sean Williams. Being so good, I wonder why he didn’t …
Marvin Harrison
Harrison was already a standout wide receiver before Peyton Manning and Edgerrin James joined the Colts, but his numbers exploded in 1999 after the three joined forces. Blessed with supersonic speed and sticky hands, he finds ways to get open at spots all over the field, and when he …
