David Lee
Probably the best pick the New York Knicks franchise made since they selected Patrick Ewing first overall. Mind you, Lee won’t be as good or even as effective as Ewing was but with all the horrendous moves these franchise has made through the years. The pick of David Lee …

Miami Dolphins Preseason
Last year, the Miami Dolphins came from pretty much no-where to win their division and make the playoffs. This is after only winning one game the year before. So, naturally, things are looking up for this team and they can only build on that success this year; or can …

2009 NASCAR Sprint Cup Season
As a Jeff Gordon fan, I must admit to not being thrilled with the outcome of the 2009 NASCAR Sprint Cup Season since Jeff came in third. I was really rooting for him to get that elusive fifth Cup. I especially didn’t want him to lose out …
Zlatan Ibrahimovic Swedish Soccer Player
Just as is the case with Ronaldinho, wathcing Zlatan Ibrahimovic is a bit of a sad case for me because I really feel as if he is one of those players who never really worked hard enough to realize his true potential as a football player. With Ronaldinho though, …

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 …
Minnesota Vikings Mid-Season
OK, I’ll admit it. I was wrong about the Minnesota Vikings. When they first started out, I figured they were overrated and made a mistake bringing Brett Favre out of retirement. But, I’m not convinced, even though they are better than
I thought, that they will hold up the entire …
Norv Turner
Whenever someone asks me about San Diego Chargers Head Coach Norv Turner, my response to them is ‘one heck of a coordinator, lousy coach.’
Turner is an innovative offensive coach who pretty much designed the offense the San Diego Chargers have had success with over the past few years. But, …
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 …

Corey Maggette

Antonio Daniels
With the injury to Gilbert Arenas, Antonio Daniels should have gotten the bulk of minutes playing the point guard position for the Washington Wizards. Unfortunately for him and the Wizards he got injured and is again out of the line-up for the nest month. This is unfortunate in the …
Marcus Camby
The New York Knicks once had a power house team that competed in the playoffs every year. With Patrick Ewing, Larry Johnson, Anthony Mason, and a young Marcus Camby, the Knicks seemed poise to win an NBA championship. I’m not exactly sure how that team fell apart, but fall …
Wally Szczerbiak
Wally Szczerbiak whom for the rest of this review will be calling Wally as it is so damn hard to spell his last name started his career as a sidekick to Kevin Garnett for the Minnesota Timberwolves. He even made an all star team in doing so and was …
Utah Jazz

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. …

Yonex Badminton Racket
I am not happy with this one. This is going to be another dust accumulator in my home. Had it for two months and used it twice a week from the time I bought it. I thought that by buying something expensive from a trusted brand would be good. …
Channing Frye
Channing Frye whom the Portland Trail Blazers traded for this summer in that blockbuster deal that sent Zach Randolph to the New York Knicks for Frye and Stever Francis was specially selected by the team because of his unique talent.
Channing really surprised everyone when he first played as a …
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 …
Derek Fisher
Derek Fisher of the Los Angeles Lakers made some negative notes with his former team the Utah Jazz. After he asked them to release him so that he could spend some time with his daughter who is currently ailing. After the Jazz released him he decided to sign with …

Wrestler: Al Greene
The first time I came across Al Greene was in the earlier years of World Championship Wrestling, but I never saw enough of him to become a fan. Then however, he made a return in the later years of the company when he was being managed by Fit Finlay …
Odyssey Black Series Tour Design
This is Odyssey’s newest edition to their putter family. I was fortunate enough to get my hands on the new 2010 Odyssey Black Series Tour Design.

Bob backlund

The Rock (wrestler)
The Rock is one of the best wrestlers of all time. Not only does he have the People’s Elbow the best move ever done in history. But he also has the Rock Bottom that lays out his enemies. I really like this guy’s personality. He has come a long way …
Arsenal Football Club
I have been an avid and ardent supporter of Arsenal Football Club since I was a child, fancying its attractive football as well as its players. In addition, Arsenal’s IPO listings have always been rather stable, safe to invest with a fair amount of assets under its …
Wrestler - Ric Flair
In professional wrestling, the words great and greatest get thrown around a lot. Some proformers achieve greatness in their careers, but few ever get considered to be the greatest of all time. Ric Flair, who began his career in the 70’s, and only retired in 2008, is definitely one …
Byron Leftwich
Quarterback Byron Leftwich got his first start with the Atlanta Falcons this past weekend and didn�t even finish the game before he got hurt. That, in my opinion, paints a clear picture about why he won�t be a successful NFL quarterback.
Leftwich has the physical tools to play the game. …
Rudy Gay
Rudy Gay of the Memphis Grizzlies, an intriguing talent indeed. I must admit i don’t know this guy that much. I’ve seen the Grizzlies play a couple of times this year and i’m impressed with what i’m seeing from these guy.
He has great strength, size and speed for his …
Devin Hester
Ok, when people talk about Chicago Bears’ player Devin Hester, I will be the first to admit he’s pretty fast. After all, Madden Football gave him the first ever 100 speed rating.
But, I also think he’s very overrated.
The guy is dangerous as a kick returner. But, the fact he …
Mike Martz
Now that he’s been fired by the Detroit Lions, former head coach and Lions offensive coordinator Mike Martz should be a hot commodity for teams looking to boost their offenses.
Even though Martz had some success as a head coach, I do believe his strength is as an offensive coordinator. …
