Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics - Women’s 12.5m Pursuit biathlon
The Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympic games continued its biathlon events with the Women’s 12.5 Pursuit Mass Start. I prefer the mass starts over the individual, separated timed events. I want to see competition, fast and furious. It leads to more thrills and excitement, and that’s what …
Bally Arm Slimmers
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 …
Red Asics GT-2140
I bought these Asics about a year ago to prepare to run for the Boston Marathon. (I had already qualified for it earlier that year.) My old shoes looked the almost 1,000 miles that it had suffered through, and I saw that my wallet was almost depleted. I headed …
Kansas City Chiefs
The teams that fired their head coaches this year weren’t much of a shock. What was more of a shock is the fact the Kansas Chiefs didn�t make any changes, at very least at General manager.
Let�s face it, this team is terrible; even worse than their record indicates. They …
Carmelo Anthony
The same year the LeBron James was coming out of high school to take the NBA by storm, he had some pretty stiff competition. Syracuse super star, Carmelo Anthony, was also poised to take the NBA head on. Though the two are completely different players, they’re basically the same …
Kobe Bryant
What can I say? The ultimate scoring machine in the NBA right now. Needless to say his very valuable to the Lakers. He often creates his shots with wicked jab steps and crossover moves, head fakes, pump fakes and freakish speed to accomplish his fadeaway shots, drive to the …
Tyronne Lue
The projected starting point guard for the Atlanta Hawks this year is Tyronne Lue. He was suppose to start games while teaching rookie point guard Acie Law IV the tricks of the trade. Unfortunately of Lue he hasn’t played in a single game in the NBA this year due …

NASCAR - the top 35 rule
For most of its history, NASCAR races featured drivers who raced their way into the field. Regardless of the number of drivers in a race (and it did vary until the last ten years or so), the field was set by qualifying. For the most part, if …
Jake Delhomme
The Carolina Panthers have always been a team that everyone knows about. Since they were expanded to be in the league in the early 90’s, they’ve been known to win a game or few. And with their quarterback, Jake Delhomme, it’s no wonder why. Jake is an amazing quarterback …
Kelenna Azubuiki
Kelenna Azubuiki is often called the french gentleman. In my great surprise Azubuiki has become an amazing player for the Golden State Warriors. He is averaging double digits in points and contributes heavily on the rebounding and the assist department as well.
In a team made of offensive players …
Bruce Bowen
Bruce Bowen of the San Antonio Spurs is considered by many among his NBA peers as a dirty defender. He is a pesky defensive specialists who plays with a lot of passion but sometimes i think maybe a bit too much. He defends a bit physically and at times …
Wolverhampton Racecourse
I have been to Wolverhampton Races at Dunstall Park many times. It is an excellent day or night out. We love going to the races here at night especially when it is under the floodlights. We normally go with Steve parents as his dad is really …
Terrell Owens
When I think about the elite receivers in the league, Cowboys receiver Terrell Owens is always one of the first to come to mind.
Owens no longer has the big play speed he used to have. But, he does have one advantage many receivers around the league don’t, height. He …
Michael Doleac
Michael Doleac of the Minnesota Timberwolves is a solid back-up Center who started his career with the Orlando Magic as a high first round pick for them. And in that sense that he is a first round pick i think he will be considered a disappointment in the league.
After …

NASCAR 2009 Nationwide Race - Fontana
The NASCAR 2009 Nationwide Race - Fontana was a bit one sided, unfortunately. Kyle Busch pretty much walked away with the win, which was a record-setting second win for the day, since he had already won the truck race. No driver had ever won two major events in …
Sun Mountain SLX Golf Bag
I golf rarely and poorly, so I do not spend money on my golf equipment often. My clubs and bag were purchased second-hand, and the only purchases I have ever made were a hybrid, shoes and golf balls. I do not enjoy the game enough to spend a lot …
Rashaun Woods
This guy was a great player for the 49ers and will help all the teams that he will play for in the NFL during his career. Rashaun will play with the Chargers this year and will probably be their third wide receivers. In his rookie year he caught 7 …
Rod Smith
Smith is an explosive receiver who will burn defensive backs that give him too much room to operate. He reached the end zone 22 times in the years from 97-99, and he also gained 1,000 yards for the third straight time in 1999. Smith also made it three consecutive …
UFC 127 (Penn vs. Fitch)
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 …
Brendan Haywood
After a physical battle for the starting Center spot for the Washington Wizards, Brendon Haywood has won the spot over Etan Thomas due to several factors. First of all is the fact that Haywood is much bigger than Ethan Thomas as he is at seven feet tall. Secondly, the …
Eddie House
Eddie House of the Boston Celtics is one of the most gifted quick shooters in the league today. I remember him when he was still playing for the Arizona Wildcats in his collegiate career and he scored like over 50 points in one game. I though he was gonna …

Every generation, something very special comes along and in the world of football, a special player comes along in each generation. One special player to speak of in my time of watching and being active in the sport of football is one Zinedine Yazid Zidane, the French master and …
Ahmed Plummer
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. He finished his remarkable compaign with 16 passes defensed. Ahmed certainly does know how to defend his …
Zach Thomas
While I like his leadership, I do think teams that are serious about signing former Miami Dolphins Linebacker Zach Thomas as a free agent are going to have to look at him very closely.
The former 5th round pick has been two 7 Pro Bowls. That’s great. But, he’s also …
Wrestler: Barry Windham
Barry Windham was one of the first people I saw when I first watched Professional Wrestling as a child. He was a heel at the time, so naturally I took a disliking to him as you do when your that age, but as I grew older I started to …

Brodie Croyle
Brodie Croyle was a great starting quarterback for the University of Alabama. Croyle was great throughout the entire season and helped his team along almost all by himself. Brodie’s teammates all looked up to him sort of as the team leader. If your looking for someone that can …
2010 NASCAR Nationwide Stater Bros. 300 race
The Nationwide Series continued on February 20, 2010 with the Stater Bros. 300, held in California. Joey Logano had the pole, with his teammate Kyle Busch on the outside. It probably wasn’t a big surprises that this front row ended up in the heat of the battle …
Mark Blount
The newly acquired Heat Forward Mark Blount has had better stints with other teams than what he has done for the Miami Heat. He has averaged double figure points with the Boston Celtics and the Minnesota Timberwolves and even started for those teams.
With the Miami Heat though, his …
Lush Longboards Mako Longboard
I started longboarding because it’s a great crossover sport for surfers or snowboarders looking for something to do when they can’t get to the snow or surf.
This board I bought is a Lush Mako made by the British company Lush Longboards it is a 44″ pintail shape board made …
Desmond Mason
Desmond Mason originally started his career with the Seattle Supersonics where he joined the Slam Dunk competition and won that exhibition. He was slowly acclaimed as one of those players that can’t do anything else in the basketball court but energize a crowd with spectacular dunks and throw-downs. After …
Mouhamed Sene
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 …
Marvin Harrison
Peyton Manning is the best quarterback in the history of the National Football League in my humble opinion. But to be that good, you always need someone whom you can throw the ball to at all times. Joe Montana had it, Troy Aikman had it, Steve Young had it, …
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 …

Severna Park Golf Center
The nine hole Par 3 golf course in Severna Park is one that may get some mixed opinions, depending upon the type of golfer you are. Personally, the first thing that I consider when looking for a round of golf is the price. I …
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, …
Bally Total Fitness in West Covina
To summarize my experience at Bally Total Fitness in West Covina requires only one word: Disappointing.
Having sampled several different gyms in several different areas throughout my life, this particular Bally location was probably the poorest facility that required a monthly membership.
As a member there, I found the service very …
