Sport Reviews
Kenyon Martin
The New Jersey Nets once seemed to have it all in the eastern conference of the NBA. They had the speed, the big shot ability, Jason Kidd and Kenyon Martin… what more could a team ask for? Kenyon, the six foot nine forward out of Cincinnati, was an incredibly …
Brevin Knight
Brevin Knight is one of the smallest players in the league right now. But this is not a measure of his character. Knight who has continually battled the public perception on him being too small to play in the big man’s game has in my opinion more than made …
Wrestler: Bullet Bob Armstrong
Bob Armstrong is a true legend in professional wrestling, and is the father of the legendary Armstrong Family. All of his sons are also professional wrestlers, the most famous of which being ‘Road Dogg’ BG James.
Back in his day, Bob Armstrong was one of the greatest participating in many …
Super Bowl 42
Some claim that it is undoubtedly the biggest sport event of the entire year. The Super Bowl. Now I will admit to not being the biggest most diehard football fan, I enjoy an occasional good game and am always down to watch my hometown team, The Chargers, play. Shout …
Worldcup Cricket-2007
The biggest Event in the game of Cricket is going to start on sunday 11th of march in West Indies.for people of Asia to whom Cricket is their religion and the players are all gods this will be wonderful event and will always try to watch all the …
High Performance Centre (HPC)
My personal experience of the High Performance Sports Development Centre is one of a supremely impressed sports person!
During my varsity days, very recently, I was playing football for one of the residential university house league teams, at the University of Pretoria, and during that time I had the privilege …
UEFA Finals
It was a disaster for arsenal as they lose to barcelona. Arsenal had the posession in the beginning till the half time and they also had a one goal lead against barcelona. It was a very good header from campbell which was assisted by henry. henry was the player …
Keith Brooking
Brooking put forth some filthy efforts for the “Dirty Birds” in 2003. The Prow Bowl linebacker led the Falcons with 144 tackles, that made him second in the NFC, and had five games with double-digit solo stops. He seems pretty small to be doing that at 6′2″ and 245 …
Marvin Lewis
After year after year of being called the Bungals, the Cincinatti Bengals finally made a wise decision and picked up former coordinator Marvin Lewis from the Baltimore Ravens to be their head coach. Since there, Marvin Lewis had lead that team from the laughing stock of the league, to …
Wrestler: Antonio Thomas
Antonio Thomas is probably best known for his short stint in the WWE with his partner Romeo Roselli as the overly effeminate ladies men ‘The Heartthrobs.’ They never actually got passed Jobber status before being released however.
Personally, I thought they had potential. They were bought up too soon from …
Anil kumble
Anil Kumble is the most successful Indian team bowler in the history of Indian cricket. Recently he cross 500 wicket mark. Which is record for Indian cricket bowler Kumble is a tall man and he got a built of fast bowler and he is a fastest spinner in the …
Tippmann Alpha Black Paintball Gun
The Tippmann Alpha Black Paintball Marker is one of the more common guns I’ve come across playing paintball. I own one myself, and have been extremely pleased with its performance. It’s rugged. It won’t break. I’ve seen the gun bashed on rocks, trees, shrubs, …
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 …
Barcelona Football Club
I personally think if anyone claims they love the game of football, no matter what team they support, they have to love watching Barcelona Football Club in action, with their short passing, patient game that is characterized by a team of highly skilled individuals that fight for each other …
2008 Chicago Bears
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).
This year, I really can’t see this team being anything more than a bottom feeder in the NFL.
I don’t even know …
Taylormade Burner Plus Iron Set
The 2009 Taylormade Burner Plus Iron set is taylormade’s upgrade to their previous burner iron set.
Overall, I was not a big fan of these clubs. I tried them out in steel, regular flex. I felt that they were not forgiving at all. They have a good amount of mass …
Peja Stojakovic
Out of all the European players currently lending their services and talents to the National Basketball Association, Peja Stojakovic was probably the first and still one of the most famous. Of corse he wasn’t the first European player, but he was definitely one of the first legitimate super stars …
Anti-Hero Skateboard Deck
I bought an Anti-Hero skateboard deck about 3 months ago, and I have to say, it’s one of the most durable decks I have owned! Here’s the breakdown.
Looks: Excellent, I got the “Nothing’s Free” deck, costed the same as any other deck ($45). Very detailed eagle design, made me …
2008 Topps Kickoff
2008 Topps Kickoff was a great low end football product released by Topps at the beginning of the 2008 NFL season. I really appreciate this product because it is affordable, at only $1.00 a pack.
This set is based off of the 2008 Topps set, the difference is that …
Aaron Rodgers: Green Bay Packers QB
Aaron Rodgers is the new Green Bay Packers quarterback, and he will be for a long time to come. Rodgers has a solid all-around game. He’s got a good arm, and he also has good accuracy to go with that arm. The Packers knew he was a special player …
Louis Williams
Before David Stern, the commissioner of the National Basketball Association, changed the rule last year that prohibited players from making the leap from high school directly into the NBA, one player got in just before the shop closed. Louis Williams, the six foot two inch poing guard from South …
Jerry Stackhouse
Jerry Stackhouse was an excellent scorer early in his career as a Detroit Piston and a Philadelphia 76er. He has an unbelievable athleticism and can rise up at any moment to go for the dunk. He also was gifted with the ability to shot the three point shot with …
Jim Bates
When I think about Jim Bates, I think of a guy who had the potential to be a great defensive coordinator but basically blew his chances because he�s a big cry baby.
Bates ran dominating defenses on the Miami Dolphins and, in his one year with the Green Bay Packers, …
Mike Wahle
It’s interesting to see NFL Guard Mike Wahle continuing his career with the same coach he started his career with, Mike Holmgren. However, if the Seahawks think they are getting the same dominating lineman that left the Green Bay Packers a couple of years ago, they are mistaken.
Wahle is …
24 Hour Fitness Gym - Glendale Active
When there are SO many gyms in one area (including a higher level 24 Hour Fitness down the block!), it’s difficult to choose one. I chose this 24 Hour Fitness for two reasons. Firstly, my workout partner was a member of 24 Hour Fitness, and secondly, it …
San Antonio Spurs
The San Antonio Spurs is the ultimate NBA team this decade. Coached by Greg Popovich who teaches team play and team oriented defense, the Spurs have mastered the art of winning ugly in my humble estimation. I saw a poll in ESPN one time and it ranked the Spurs …
Charlie Villanueva
Newly acquired Buck Charlie Villanueva who they got from the Raptors in exchange of T.J Ford will be given the chance to prove his worth as a starter with the Bucks. He was given limited and sparring minutes with the Raptors and still was able to make a name …
Darko Milicic
Newly acquired Magic Center Darko Milicic who came from Serbia and Montenegro and drafted by the pistons as the second overall pick in the ‘03 draft has slowly shown why he was drafted over the likes of Dwayne Wade, Carmelo Anthony and Chris Bosh. After two and a half …
Victor Chandler Poker
Victor Chandler Poker, a member of the iPoker network, is by far my favorite poker site to play on. It has a sleek design, competitive but not great players, fast payouts, and excellent staff.
The interface looks nearly identical to all of the other iPoker network sites, so it should …
England football team
Now that the 2010 World Cup is over, I suppose it is time to review the performance of the England side, which happens to be my home team. That’s not something I am particularly pleased about, given their disappointing (to use a very mild word) level of achievement in …
Bonzi Wells
Bonzi Wells for me is probably the best rebounding two guard in the league. He has great height and deft to be able to battle bigger players down low for that rebounds be it on the offensive or at the defensive end.
I have always admired Wells game ever …
Absa Premiership South African Premier Soccer League
Since the formation of the Premier Soccer League in 1996, as a means for there to be a single professional body that operates elite football in South Africa, I have witnessed some very interesting developments. Firstly, a lot more professionalism has been introduced and I have noticed a generally …
Richard Jefferson
The National Basketball Association has been ever-changing. From the early times of the league, the golden age, where most players were crafy with the ball and could pass through traffic and do some crazy finger roll looking stuff, to the midway period in the league that seen a little …
Tippmann 98 Custom paintball marker
Paintball is a rather expensive sport, which causes even the most recent players to stop playing eventually, because they really just can’t afford to play all the time. In fact, your average paintball player only plays actively for about a year.
This is why most players tend to get …
Santana Moss
The Washington Redskins have had more than their fair share of troubles this past season. Though making it to the playoffs, they were decidedly booted out by a much hungrier, and less beat up Seattle Seahawk team. Though each year, wheter they seem to make the playoffs or not, …
Robert Horry
Robert Horry is perhaps the most clutch shooter in the NBA. I sometimes think that maybe Horry saves his tank for crucial situations and rise up on these instances when the chance presents itself. He constantly sticks dagger into the hearts of opposing teams from the day he entered …
Pacquiao Vs Clottey - Boxing Flop of the Century
Last Sunday, everyone was at a stand still, waiting for the fight, that was supposed to be one of the greatest and hardest for pound for pound Filipino Boxer Manny Pacquiao since his opponent was supposed to be bigger and stronger. Many paid good money just to be …
Luke Jackson
The Miami Heat waived long time guard/forward in the NBA Penny Hardaway to open a roster spot in signing Luke Jackson. Jackson played in the NBDL and was highly regarded when he first came into the NBA. He was a former first round selection by the Cleveland Cavaliers and …
Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics - Men’s Halfpipe
America’s Louie Vito isn’t normally the type of guy I’d say is cute, but after watching him on Dancing with the Stars, he is kinda cute. After seeing this different dancing side of him, how can I not root for him at the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics? …
Marvin Williams
Drafted as the second over-all selection last year with the Atlanta Hawks. Marvin Williams who a year before that won the NCAA title with the North Carolina Tar Heels is expected to take this team to the success it once had during the reign of Dominique Wilkins. Williams is …
Avery Johnson
The Head coach of the Dallas Mavericks, Avery Johnson has slowly ascended in the field of good coaches in the NBA. Johnson started out as an undrafted point guard for the San Antonio Spurs. He went on to lead that team to it’s first ever championship when he partnered …
Washington Redskins
Having grown up in Virginia and Maryland I supported the Redskins. At first, it was only because they were the home team and I really didn’t have an interest in football. As I got older, I got more into the sport and supported the team more diligently. …
England v France - Friendly November 2010
It was due to be Englands first major test since their awful World Cup campaign in South Africa. They had played a couple of qualifying games that had not been especially impressive, but now it was France at Wembley. No one really appeared too concerned in the build up. …
Grant Hill
Grant Hill broke my heart as an Orlando Magic fan the last seven years. He was basically a tease for me and the other Magic fans out there. Although by no means was it is fault, the contract that he signed seven years ago with Orlando crippled the team …
George Karl
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 …
Morris Almond
The Utah Jazz drafted unknown Rookie Morris Almond in this years NBA draft selection last June. As i understand, it was coach Jerry Sloan who requested to have Almond on the team as he previously saw this guy in action in a pick-up game and was deeply interested.
So …
Rasho Nesterovic
Rasho Nesterovic is a 7 footer out of Slovenia. He is a serviceable big man at best and can contribute on the defensive end. He plays for the Toronto Raptors and starts at times in place of Andrea Bargnani. On the offensive end, Nesterovic has little range on his …
Ronaldo De Lima Brazilian Soccer Star Striker
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 …
Larry Hughes
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Larry Hughes whome they signed last year from the Washington Wizards with the hopes of complimenting Lebron James game suffered through and injury plagued season that hindered the success of both his team and himself. His injury on the right index finger which required a couple …
Jarvis Hayes
Jarvis Hayes of the Detroit Pistons started his young career with the Washington Wizards playing alongside the likes of Caron Butler, Antawn Jamison and Gilbert Arenas. He has made some strides in his career in the NBA but he still generally lacks the overall confidence that will make him …
