I used to watch wrestling in my teens, it was like 10 years back, at that time the most famous wrestler was Stone Cold Steve Austin. I checked out WWE a few days back and I saw him still in action, it seems he is still going strong. …

The San Antonio Spurs head coach Greg Popovich is probably the best coach this decade. I do give Phil Jackson that distinction last decade but certainly (and i doubt anyone will argue with me over this is) Greg Popovich will get the nod this time. He has led the …

The 2009 NASCAR season got under way with the Bud Shootout 2009 race on February 7 and while it didn’t end exactly how I wanted it to, it was a very good race.
This special race is run in two segments, the first being 25 laps and the second being …

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 …

I HATE this guy. Flat out hate ISIAH THOMAS. He is one of the most stupid General Managers i have ever known EVER! Don’t get me wrong, he was a great basketball player himself when he led the Detroit Pistons to back-to-back NBA championships in 1989 and 1990 along …

Unfortunately, they just …

The Bulls youth movement continues with Thabo Sefolosha. Highly drafted with little to no experience at all. He was an unknown player when he entered the draft in the year ‘04. But i was surprised when the Bulls drafted him early in the second round. He was a virtual …

For a fast player like me, the dynamics of a soccer boot used should fall within a specific range of design, with special focus on comfort, fit, style and even durability.
After spending hours and hours in within the confines of a specialist shoe factory, trying on all sorts of …

It’s really hard to come up with the words to describe New England Patriots Coach Bill Belichick. On one hand, he’s a heck of a coach. He’s 3-1 in the Super Bowl, has turned the Patriots into an annual contender for the NFL title and, quite simply put, could …

The Big Show, now going by the name of ‘The Great Wight’ in reference to his real name, Paul Wight, is easily one of the most recognizable figures in modern day professional wrestling due to his huge size and the comparisons between him and the late great Andre The …

I remember Aaron Williams now with the Los Angeles Clippers the most when he was still playing for the New Jersey Nets where i believe was the high point of his career in the NBA as well. Back then he was an active contributor to a team that had …

I think some other team could …

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 …

I’m not sure why, but when I think of Chris Paul ( the six foot tall point guard from the Wake Forest Demon Deacons in his second year in the NBA) I seen to think of Minnesota. Not the basketball team, the Timberwolves, but the entire state. I’m not …

Brandon Jackson is the backup running back for the Green Bay Packers in the NFL. He’s a very good backup to have on your team, especially for the Packers new, young QB, Aaron Rodgers. Jackson gives Rodgers a check down, and a reliable checkdown at that. You look back …

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 …

I really have no idea who the Seattle Supersonics start at Center at the very start of each and every game. Sometimes though the starter is a guy from Senegal in Mouhamed Sene. He is wide seven foot center who is very agile on the defensive end but has …

Bret ‘The Hitman’ Hart, alongside the likes of Chris Benoit, Dean Malenko and The Dynamite Kid Tommy Billington, is one of the greatest technical and mat based wrestlers I have EVER had the pleasure of watching. He was a man capable of making anyone look good in victory or …

Who would have thought that 20 years after my first experience of a World Cup Final, that we would be faced with a very similar scenario. Back in 1990 I was 8, fortunately my son was only 5 and so he didn’t watch this final like I had 20 …

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 …

Utah Jazz head coach Jerry Sloan has been the longest tenured coach in pro basketball today. He has been the coach of the Utah Jazz for over 21 years now and has just recently signed a contract extension that would guarantee him reaching his twenty fifth of the team …

I don’t see any other point guard in the NBA having more of an upside than Deron Williams has for the Utah Jazz. I really like his game. He scores effortlessly from both beyond the arc and inside it. His leadership skills are already polished as well at a …

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 …

It was a series that was supposed to be a walk in the park for the 2008 Runner-up, the Los Angeles Lakers. Being the top team in the Western Conference after the regular season, it was expected of the LA Lakers to dominate whatever team that it encounter.

Now that Mike McCarthy’s second season with the Packers is officially done and he’s set to sign a 5-year contract extension, it’s time to take a few minutes and grade his performance.

Since day one of enrolling in the Capoeira class, I have become hooked into this African-Brazilian fighting and survival tactic that mixes fighting, dance, and aerobics in one blood-pumping session. At first, I was a bit scared and insecure because from the what I saw on the floor, the …

When I first looked at these paintballs, I figured that since they’re labeled “Great American” paintballs, that they’d either be really good, or a really good “American Value”. I was pretty much wrong on both. It was also really weird that the paintballs are scented, although they’re not nearly …

I only know a little bit of France. They had the hundred years war with England, they have good cheeses and wines, I think that’s where they make crepes, and they have two very good basketball players currently signed in America’s National Basketball Association. (two that I know of) …

Ever since having a big game against the Green Bay Packers during the NFC Title game, Plaxico Burress is acting like he’s an elite receiver in the NFL. He’s far from it.
Burress is a decent number one receiver. But, he’s also seriously overrated. That’s why the Steelers, who drafted …

The squirrel tail worm is a straight finesse-style plastic worm. It comes in two sizes and about a dozen colors. The color selection of this particular bait should accommodate most water conditions. The bait was designed by shakey head fishing guru Jeff Kriet.
The bait has a normal …

Sean Marks of the Phoenix Suns has been in the league for a long time now. I am actually surprised to see that Sean Marks is playing his eight season in the league and many people haven’t even heard of him. Over the years as a spectator of not …

Whenever I catch a glimpse of Liverpool in action these days, I get a bit sad that one of our greatest rivals has succumbed to being reduced to an ordinary team, and as an Arsenal fan, contending with the likes of Manchester City, Everton and Tottenham Hotspur in addition …

Snowboarders should beware! Burton’s new 2007 Snowboard is fabulous! My brother-in-law is all about snowboarding in the Poconos each winter season. His other snowboard needed replacing, and so I went with him to investigate Burton’s new 2007 edition Snowboard. In comparison to far more costly …

When the Atlanta Falcons announced they had hired Mike Smith as their head coach, I was actually a bit surprised.
Normally, owner Arthur Blank looks to make a big splash by hiring someone he expects to turn the team around overnight. Smith isn’t going to be that guy.
I do …

With the first pick in the NFl draft last year, the Oakland Raiders selected Jamarcus Russel, a quarterback out of LSU. Being a Raiders fan I’m estatic about this pick and I’m sure that Russell will not disappoint. However, it wasn’t looking very good for Russell in the few …

While the tactical standard of African football is generally behind that of the Europeans, the technical ability and skill levels of the players, I think, is evidently superior.
I really got confirmation to this after I watched this year’s AFCON finals and I have to say that I really think …

Manchester United had not being playing all that well in the Premier League, or perhaps they were not playing too badly, but conceding poor goals and dropping points when they thought they were in the bag.
The Champions League was often a welcome distraction though. Manchester United had been drawn …

They have put tremendously talented basketball players through to the National Basketball Association, and through to the real world where young men have made a success out of life. Such is the …

The die-hard fanaticism of the tens of thousands of Bloemfontein Celtic Football Club’s supporters, who have no problem filling any stadium anywhere in the country, is an ideal I strongly feel should be adopted by the entire South African football fraternity if South African football is to break new …

This review is about the Pro V1 golfballs. In golf, the Titleist Pro V1 are the best of the balls. Everyone talks about them and everbody plays them, but what about these balls is so special.
