The women’s downhill of the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics was full of excitement. I was actually surprised, though, how many very nasty falls and crashes that there were. It was frightening, in fact.
One of the Switzerland skiers had such a nasty fall. She slid down …

The Detroit Lions went 0-16 last season and were considered the poster child for terrible franchises. I think that isn’t correct at all. I think the poster child should be the Cleveland Browns.
Years ago, Cleveland lost the original Browns (now the Baltimore Ravens) and got them back as part …

Francisco Garcia of the Sacramento Kings is a type of player that any team in the NBA could use. He is scrappy, he hustles for the ball and he can also defend in three positions. I really like this player coz he does all the dirty work for the …

Now this player is someone i slept on in my fantasy league rosters. And admit that most of y’all fantasy addicts out there didn’t pick him up as well in your respective drafts. Beno Udrih was transformed from a mop up player off the bench for the defending champions …

Lamar Odom loves Los Angeles, there’s no doubt about it. I don’t think he wants to call anywhere “home” unless it’s the Staples Center. Why do I think this? Because after playing for the less popular of the two LA teams, the Clippers, Odom then moved over and signed …

Richard Jefferson came into the league with a reputation as a high flyer and so far he has kept that reputation alive. RJ of the New Jersey Nets has taken the role of a leader this year for the Nets. He has so far soared this season averaging over …

The Minnesote Vikings and quarterback and two terms you rarely hear in the same sentence. Why? Because they don’t have a quarterback worth mentioning now, and never really did as far back as I can remember. Their quarterback of today, Brooks Bollinger, is a five year veteran out of …

Nine years ago, the Tarheels of North Carolina offerend up an amazing specimen of human agility to the NBA draft. His name was Vince Carter, and wow, he was amazing. Vinsanity, half man, half amazing were just two of the names giving this talent. He took the National Basketball …

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 …

A lot of people think this is the year the Arizona Cardinals finally end their losing streak and make the playoffs. I’m not convinced.

Jacque Jones is an outfielder for the Chicago Cubs. At the end of last year he was belting home runs like they were singles. Too bad he has not done that this year. So far he has only 1 HR and 17 RBI’s but he continues to start for …

Plummer clogged up the Bears’ passing lanes in week 1 of 2003, when the ultra-gifted cornerback tallied two passes defensed and two picks, including a staggeing 68-yard interception return for a touchdown.
