With the peak of my interest in football entering its nova phase in the late nineties, one my international footballing heroes would unsurprisingly be Ronaldo De Lima, given his popularity at the time and his epic rise to stardom.
At the 1998 FIFA World Cup held in France is the …

At the beginning of the season, the New Orleans Saints looked like they would have a terrible year. They were 0-4 and eventually lost their starting running back Deuce McAllister.

The Men’s 12.5K Pursuit, aka: the biathlon, is really an interesting sport. I’m not sure of its origins. Perhaps it’s hunting related, but it requires fast skiing as well as fast and accurate rifle shooting. Basically, you ski a while and then you reach a shooting …

It took me some time to write a view about this year�s version of the Green Bay Packers. This is mainly because, up until last week, I didn�t know what to think of them.
The Packers currently stand at 8-1 but, for some time, I had a hard time telling …

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 …

Currently owning the Houston Rockets starting point guard position over Rafer Alston, James is more of an offensive threat than Alston is. He is a very reliable three point shooter who can also do a one dribble and get inside the three point line and shoot that long two …

Stromile Swift who just got traded to the team that drafted him probably owns one of the games highest potential and leaping ability to boot. Swift is very agile for a bigman at 6 feet 11 inches tall. He can run the floor like a guard. He can also …

Ever since 2001 I’ve had an intense hatred for the New England Patriots. I’m an Oakland Raiders fan, born and raised, so I’m still terribly upset over Tom Brady’s fumble in the 2001 playoffs that cost the Raiders the game. Out of all the Patriots, none make me more …

The Arizona Cardinals were on the brink this year. Almost making the playoffs seems but yet another disappointing season now that it’s all over with. But at the time, I’m sure every player and fan alike were absolutely estatic. One thing they can take from this is a learning …

I was searching on ebay for a 3 wheel golf cart when this company came up.
The Linksman Golf X9 is the poor man’s version of Sun Mountain’s Micro Cart. The only reason I say this is both use a semi-trolley design but the linksman only has 3 wheels.
This is …

The Denver Nugget’s head coach, George Karl, is no stranger to life in the NBA. He may seem familiar to some of you Seattle Sonic fans out there and will certainly be remebembered as a no nonsense, take no prisoners type of coach. Just to look at him gets …

When I think about Seattle Seahawks coach Mike Holmgren, I think of a guy who is a great motivator and a decent play caller; though he isn’t very creative.

The reason the Philadelphia 76ers are one of the worst team in the NBA right now is shown in the fact that their starting power forward is journeyman Reggie Evans. Don’t get me wrong, Evans is a serviceable big man in the league. The problem i have with him …

Bushwhacker Butch was one half of the tag team known as the bushwhackers. They were generally Hillbillies who the fans absolutely adored, and back in the day when I didn’t know better, I was no exception. While they were very entertaining as a team, on his own, Butch was …

Devin Harris of the Dallas Mavericks in my opinion is one of the most speedy point guards out there today. He has this quick burst of speed that leaves defenders behind. Harris is a valuable part of the Mavericks drive to the championship. I’ve seen him a couple of …

Of all the head coaching candidates this coming off season, Marty Schottenheimer will likely be the most sought after.

Two years ago, the Chicago Bears were the team to beat in the NFC and were good enough to win a Super Bowl (though they ended up losing it).
