Denver Nuggets
The Denver Nuggets of the NBA in my own estimation is probably the most talented team out there. I know some of you might argue and make a case for the Boston Celtics but i have to stick with the Nuggets in this category.
What they have is a team …
Speedo Quest Snorkel and Snorkel Mask
I bought the Quest snorkel and snorkel mask from Speedo last week as I recently went on a trip that had a lot of snorkeling in its itinerary. Both of them cost Php1700. Originally, I was torn between buying this pair or a set of snorkel and …
Nelson Hemorrhage Paintballs
These paintballs really work fine as tournament and really high quality recreational paintballs. I can’t believe how cheap they are for their quality, however it’s something I’ve come to expect from Nelson paintballs. Nelson paintballs are about the cheapest as far as the quality of the paintballs go, therefore …
Marvin Williams
The Atlanta Hawks drafting of small forward Marvin Williams as the second overall pick in the 04 draft was the single move that really irked the Hawks nation over their current GM. The fact being that the position the Hawks truly needed to fill was the point guard spot …
Ronaldo De Assis Moreira (Ronaldinho), Brazilian Soccer Star
Every once in a while, a very special player comes through the ranks of any given national football team, but for one to shine among a cast of stars in the form of the Brazilian national football team, is definitely something to write home about.
Ronaldinho, in my experience of …
Lebron James
Lebron James is a superstar basketball player for the Cleaveland Cavaliers.Lebron is a 6′8″ 245lbs manchild who has the skills of a man 8 inches smaller,but the power of a seven footer. He has set many records in the NBA in his first 4 years in the league including …

This year is about change. Jim …
Jamarcus Russell
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 …
Antoine Wright
Antoine Wright has been a big surprise early this season for the New Jersey Nets. With Vince Carter being out with injury early on, Wright has stepped into the starting line-up and has produced significantly for the Nets. He has given them toughness in the three spot and some …
Barcelona Football Club
Since I consider myself a purist when it comes to soccer, I am considerably impressed by the style of play employed by the likes of Barcelona FC as well as Arsenal FC.
I am particularly fascinated by the way in which Barcelona play of late, especially since in the past …

Los Angeles Dodgers 2011 Season
I am a Los Angeles Dodgers fan. Or was until the team’s crash and burn at the hands of financially embattled owner Frank McCourt. I was pretty disillusioned over the team’s performance in 2010 and downright disappointed by their 2011 season.
I don’t care that the Dodgers finished over .500 …

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 …
Pau Gasol
Memphis Grizzlies All Star and the main pivot for the Spanish National team Pau Gasol is one of the most promising dominant figures in the game. He mainly plays inside and on offense uses variety of moves from spins, head fakes and his ability to evade defenders with …

Malik Rose of the New York Knicks is one of those players in the NBA that has a great knack for the ball. He is a bit undersized for a power forward or a Center but can match up pretty well in either of those positions since he can …
Ryan Hollins
Another one of those so called “journeyman” in the NBA. I remember him having played for at least three separate teams in his career so far. Now playing for the Charlotte Bobcats as more of a bench player to fill some open spots in the bench to meet the …
Kevin Durant
A long time removed from the glory days of Shawn Kemp and Gary Payton, the Seattle SuperSonics woke up with a high draft pick in last years NBA draft. A lot of players on the board were looking good. But after Greg Oden went to the Portland Trailblazers, there …

Donald Lee
The Green Bay Packers recently signed tight end Donald Lee to a contract extension. After seeing him play this year, I have to say it was a great move.
The Packers had entered the season appearing to be thin at that position; especially after David Martin signed with the Miami …
Tippmann C-3 Marker
When it comes to playing paintball, not all players are interested in playing indoors or even outdoors with tons of other people that they probably don’t know. I find it to be quite an advantage to be playing with people that you don’t know, because it gives you the …
Amare Stoudemire
Phoenix Suns Forward/Center Amare Stoudemire who as of now has been recovering from an ACL surgery should be one of the best players in the NBA when Healthy. The fact in professional sports is that health is always an issue. You can easily get injured playing and depending on …

Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics - Short Track - Men’s 1500m
I do love the Winter Olympics, and one of the first events is the Short Track - Men’s 1500m. I have to say that just watching these men skate makes me dizzy. Going around and around on the short track takes such concentration and focus. I …
Mike Conley Jr.
Mike Conley Jr. who was drafted as the third overall pick in last years draft behind Kevin Durant who went second to the Seattle Supersonics and to Greg Oden who was drafted first overall by the Portland Trailblazers. I would have thought that Mike will be the heir apparent …

Emmitt Thomas
The Atlanta Falcons have falled victim to some tremendously bad luck this past year. Their star quarter Michael Vick was arrested and ultimately jailed for his involvement with dog fighting. Their new coach high tailed it back to college where the atmosphere is more forgiving. And Bill Parcells turned …
Muhsin Muhammed
Now that the Chicago Bears have released wide receiver Muhsin Muhammed, I have serious questions about what kind of interest he’ll generate as a free agent.
At one point in his career, Muhammed was one of the better possession receivers in the NFL. He was never an elite guy but …
Guard Allen Iverson
Philadelphia 76ers guard Allen Iverson or more widely known as “the Answer” was nearly traded last month to the Boston Celtics. If ever there was a mold for a high scoring guard then he is the ultimate example of one. Held the league scoring titles multiple times, AI is …

Carlos Boozer
Another in a long line of great Duke University Blue Devils players to make the splash in the NBA is the Utah Jazz power forward standing six feet nine inches tall, Carlos Boozer. Boozer, who has been playing for five years, is the Jazz’s primary threat down low. Though …
