Guards in the NBA are making a comeback. When Shaq, Alonzo Mourning and Dikembe were all in their prime, it was land of the big men. But now that the calender reads 2008, it’s out with the old, in with the new. This is true on almost every team …

Never in the history of the NFL have I seen a more sporadic quarterback than the Chicago Bears quarterback, Rex Grossman. Sexy Rexy as he is so colorfully coined by his fans, tends to lean on the side of football sociopath, no feelings or empathy for what he does …

There are a shortage of cool names in the world of professional sports. Not many guys can boast a catchy name, and with the explosing of the European players, a lot of names are harder to pronounce than they are to spell. I’m sure it seems petty to like …

I like this guy Stephen Graham of the Indiana Pacers for the very little playing time that he has gotten so far. When he is in the game he makes a bit of a difference with his ability to get into the lane and be aggressive. What i …

I can’t say too much about Bruce Bowen without becoming completely infuriated. He is a six foot seven small forward out of Cal State Fullerton who currently plays with the San Antonio Spurs. He has played eleven extremely dirty and rule breaking years in the National Basketball Association. And …

The Women’s1500 meter event of Speed Skating competition during the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympic games was stellar and full of excitement. As an American, I’d like to say we were in the thick of the hunt, but this isn’t our event. Still, the thrill of the Olympics …

I bought this monofin a few years ago as part of a mermaid-tail project. I still have it today, and I don’t regret buying it, even though I only use it occasionally. It’s probably one of the best purchases I’ve ever made.
For those who don’t know, a monofin is …

Being a die-hard Packers fan, I obviously am not a huge fan of the Chicago Bears. But, I will try to be objective when looking at their past season, which resulted in a winning record but not a playoff appearance.
Offensively, I think the Bears have improved from last year, …

I’ll confess, the Post Season was the first time I’ve watched the Pittsburgh Steelers play all season long. So, when I write about them and try to review the team as they stand and where they are heading, I’m going to have to base it on limited viewing time. …

To be honest, Formula 1 racing just isn’t my thing. I watch it from time to time when there’s nothing else on, or if I’m particularly curious about something. It’s just that compared to NASCAR, F1 bores me.
The opening race of 2009 was in Melbourne, Australia. …

The Chicago Bulls had a great team last year. They swept the defending champion Miami Heat in the first round of the playoffs and gave the Detroit Pistons, their bitter rivals, all they could handle in six games. Led by head coach Scott Skiles, the Bulls started off poorly …

I’m really not sure how or when these paintballs came out, but I do know that they’re about the best paintballs I’ve ever used. It confuses me that now Diablo is producing All Star paintballs, which have been an RPS trademark for years. They are much cheaper than RPS …

Mike Dunleavy of the Golden State Warriors who’s also the son of the coach of the Los Angeles Clippers defines in my opionion the combination of potential and versatility. At six-feet nine inches, Dunleavy can easily handle the ball and take it up the court. He can also drive …

Big Guido was one of the big men that Extreme Championship Wrestling bought in as their product lacked any solid Big Men capable of doing anything major, and mainly consisted of smaller more ‘hardcore’ wrestlers.

It took the England cricket selectors much too long, in my opinion, to give Andrew Strauss the national captaincy (at least as far as Test cricket is concerned) on a permanent basis. When Michael Vaughan stepped down, Strauss performed pretty well in a tricky series against Pakistan, but was …

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’m really disappointed by the way NASCAR races have been going lately and I think a lot of that falls onto the new car they’ve been running. This new car is making things safer and supposedly better, but it’s also making things a lot more boring. I’m used to …

When one talks of the world’s greatest players, certainly someone like Ricardo Isacsson Leite Santos comes to my mind, better known as Kaka.
