Denver Broncos Preseason
A few years ago, the Denver Broncos were the team that set the standard in the NFL. Before the start of the new millennium, the team won two Super Bowls and was an annual playoff contender for a few years after that; even after John Elway retired.
Unfortunately, they just …
Damon Stoudamire
Damon Stoudamire of the Memphis Grizzlies is one of the most quickest point guards there was in the NBA. With age catching up with him though he has slowly declined and his contributions are lower than what they used to be. Still Stoudamire is a serviceable point guard at …
Marquis Daniels
When the Dallas Mavericks selected Marquis Daniels i immediately started thinking what an awesome team Dallas will be with Daniels and Josh Howard playing together. They both have similar games who can defend, score and create hustle plays for them. Daniels was eventually traded to the Pacers though and …
Jason Kidd
New Jersey Nets point guard Jason Kidd was the NBA?s epitome of versatility. He probably still is, the only gathering concern is his health issues that has been hounding him the last couple of years. After an ACL surgery a couple of years back and an aging age of …
Derek Anderson
The Cleveland Browns fate for the playoffs this year didn’t rest in their hands. After winning nine games, it was totally dependant on what the Tennessee Titans did against the Colts (win or lost) that would decide the Browns fate. This was a shock for the people of Cleveland. …
Flip Murray
Flip Murray of the Detroit Pistons was originally drafted by the Milwaukee Bucks then traded to the Seattle Supersonics in that Gary Payton deal that also sent Ray Allen to the Supersonics. Murray is a good player to have as a back up point guard though generally he is …
Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics - Speed Skating - Women’s 1500m
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 …
Tony Battie
Tony Battie of the Orlando Magic who is currently off the shelves for the season with a torn rotator calf injury would have helped the Magic further this season if he was healthy. Battie is a very good on the ball defender for the Center spot or the Power …
Brady Quinn
The biggest thing Notre Dame quarterback Brady Quinn has going for him is the fact he was coached by Charlie Weis, the guy who turned Tom Brady, an unknown 6th round draft pick, into a star.
Physically, I think Brady is only second to JaMarcus Russell in this year’s draft. …
Sean Marks
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 …
Brian Scalabrine
The Redhead From California, Brian Scalabrine who was an instrumental player coming off the bench for the New Jersey Nets when they were making there run for the title is a good addition for the Celtics as he provides them with hustle, toughness and some offense off the bench. …
Steve Francis
My uncle attended the University of Maryland, so I kind of grew up a fan by force. I always pronounced their team name “Terror Pins” when I was a kid. Only later did I realize that it was the Maryland Terrapins. And to this day, I still have absolutely …
Jerry Porter
Playing for my beloved Oakland Raiders for quite a few years now, Jerry Porter finally seems ready to take over as the go-to number one receiver on the team. He was a welcomed addition in the early 2000’s where he played third receiver to Jerry Rice and Tim Brown …
Matt Schaub
With Michael Vick seeming to be the franchise quarterback for the Atlanta Falcomes, backup quarterback, Matt Schaub never got a chance to strut his stuff in front of the world. Now with Vick in jail and the Falcons in desperate need of a quarterback, they mistakenly sent off their …
Volleyball
For those who have never seen or play volleyball before, volleyball is a basically a game which requires to teams to try to keep the ball not to fall into their own side of the court. Well, it is not that difficult? That is just one of the beauty …
Mo Williams
Mo Williams who just signed a five year $57 million contract to stay with the Milwaukee Bucks has proven that he was worth all that money that the Bucks threw his way. He has lightning quick first step that allows him to get into the basket and use his …
Troy Hudson
Troy Hudson of the Golden State Warriors has just ended his career as he was forced to retire early with a chronic hip injury that needs to be replaced soon and with little to no chance of recovery at least in the NBA level of play. And for me …
Thabo Sefolosha
The Bulls youth movement continues with Thabo Sefolosha. Highly drafted with little to no experience at all. He was an unknown player when he entered the draft in the year ‘04. But i was surprised when the Bulls drafted him early in the second round. He was a virtual …
Minnesota Vikings Mid-Season
OK, I’ll admit it. I was wrong about the Minnesota Vikings. When they first started out, I figured they were overrated and made a mistake bringing Brett Favre out of retirement. But, I’m not convinced, even though they are better than
I thought, that they will hold up the entire …
Javon Walker
A couple of years ago, Javon Walker wanted to be paid like one of the best wide receivers in the league. The Green Bay Packers said no and, a year later, he forced them to trade him.
The Denver Broncos bit and paid him the money he was seeking only …
Jason “Jay” Williams
The sports world seemed shocked nine years ago when the Sacramento Kings used their seventh overall pick in the draft to select Jason Williams from the Florida Gators. That shock turned to joy when the young point guard quickly grew to become one of the more exciting players in …
Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics - Nordic Combined - Team Large Hill
From an American’s perspective, the Nordic Combined, Team Large Hill event at the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympic games were astounding. For the first time in modern history, an American team won a medal in this event. We’ve been shut out for what seems like forever. Then …
Yonex Armortec 30 badminton racquet
In my last badminton doubles match, I played using a Yonex Armortec 30 racquet. When I bought this racquet, it was highly recommended by the salesman at Toby’s which he said far better than the Yonex Armortec 150.
I think the Yonex Armortec 30 racquet is good for intermediate and …
NASCAR: Nationwide Series - 2009 Pepsi 300
It was a warm day at the Nashville SuperSpeedway in Tennessee on the day before Easter when Carl Edwards led the field to the green flag. Unlike most Nationwide races, this one was largely devoid of big name Sprint Cup drivers, and that’s because it’s an off-weekend for …
Nike Storm Fit Elite Jacket
Part of the things I dislike about golf is that when you live in a climate like the west coast of BC, you cannot expect a lot of non-rainy days, so if you are going to spend any time outside at all, you have to have the right rain …
Corey Maggette
The Los Angeles Clippers through persistence has risen from the ruins of being the league’s doormat team to team filled with players capable of taking this team to another level and to respectability at last. Corey Maggette is one of those players they’ve got. He is offensively gifted when …
Fort Langley Golf Course
For a beginner golfer like me, it is difficult to find a golf course that is not intimidating, while at the same time, has nice scenery to make the experience somewhat enjoyable. (I say somewhat enjoyable because I do not find golf particularly enjoyable at the best of times). …
Lebron James
“The king” as often called, Lebron James is hyped to be the next saviour of the NBA. Gifted with the physical and talents to dominate the league for the next decade or so. His speed is above average for his size, Passing is extraordinary which brings a lot of …
Cambrian Ridge Golf Course
One of my very first experiences of playing golf in Alabama was when a friend took me to Cambrian Ridge, one of the Trent Jones Trail golf courses. This one is situated in Greenville, Ala. and is a beautiful, pristine course that is great to play and a pleasure …
Bobby Simmons
Bobby Simmons has been nothing but a failure for the Milwaukee Bucks since he signed that 6 year $57 million contract that he got from them. It was a disappointing signing for the Milwaukee Bucks as Simmons has been plagued with injuries, inconsistent plays and poor showings when his …
Action Village Seconds Paintballs
When playing paintball, most people realize that the price of paint is extremely expensive. Seconds paintballs are definitely a good way to beat the price of paintballs.
Of course, seconds paintballs aren’t up to the quality of the other brands of paintballs being sold, and are therefore much cheaper.
Seconds paintballs …
Marcus Camby
For me, Camby is the best weak side help defender in the league. Majority of his blocks are made helping out. He has led the league in blocks the last couple of years and it shows the type of player Camby is. Although often injured with his slender build, …
David Haye v Enzo Maccarinelli
They were both British, they were both champions in the same division and they both wanted to be recognised as the best. The problem was, they seemed to get on relatively well and have slightly different visions of when and where a possible fight between the two could take …
Eddie Jordan
Eddie Jordan, not to be confused with Michael Jordan, is the coach of the very young and very talented Washington Wizards. Eddie is a hands on coach whose duties extend to off-court management of players to ensure they get the best mentoring possible to make them better men after …
Maurice Evans
A player that came with that deal for the Orlando Magic and the Los Angeles Lakers is swingman Maurice Evans who came with Brian Cook for Trevor Ariza. Evans was supposedly a player thrown in that deal to make it work financially for both teams but so far he …
Kansas City Chiefs
I’ve been taking the time to look at NFL teams around the league and give my opinion on each of them, based both on what I’ve seen and what I can expect from them next year. In my search, the team that just came up next is the Kansas …
South African rugby team
Affectionately known as the Springboks, the South African national rugby team is the pride and joy of our nation and their second world cup win makes me truly proud to be a South African indeed.
While we have potential in our soccer team, and a great cricket team, it is …
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 …
Mike Brown
The Cleveland Cavaliers have a lot to look forward to in their future. They have probably the best big-small man of all time in Lebron James. They have a young roster of player that are all willing to learn and take things one step at a time. And they …
Wrestler: Al Greene
The first time I came across Al Greene was in the earlier years of World Championship Wrestling, but I never saw enough of him to become a fan. Then however, he made a return in the later years of the company when he was being managed by Fit Finlay …
Channing Frye
Two years ago, the Wildcats of Arizona had an incredible run in the NCAA division 1 mens basketball tournament. Among the players that helped them to succedd that year was the six foot eleven inch, all American center, Channing Frye. Channing is one of the more exciting big men …

Saniya Mirza is a very popular Indian tennis player. Prior to her, none of the Indian women player for able to make any mark at the international tennis circuit but saniya changed that she was a first player Indian women player to win any international tournament with her hard …
2007 Minnesota Vikings
When I look at the 2007 Minnesota Vikings, I am reminded of Murphy�s Law �What can go wrong, will go wrong.� The reality is, if the Vikings didn�t have bad luck, they would have no luck at all.
The defense is probably the only bright spot on the team. Or, …
Roger Goodell
When the NFL named Roger Goodell as their commissioner, I had high hopes for him. However, after the last couple of years under his management, I really have to question the choice.
Goodell’s best move to date is his effort to clean up the off-the-field problems that have plagued the …
Tim Duncan
Tim Duncan probably is the NBA’s best player when healthy right now. He impacts the game in so many ways that he often contributes in the smallest of ways often unknown to himself. He creates open lanes for his teammates especially Tony Parker that leads to uncontested baskets in …
Coca Cola tigers in the PBA
Philippine Basketball Association team The COCA Cola tigers supported and paid by the world renowned soda makers, are making waves at the PBA. with a core line-up of ALi Peek, John Arigo and Johnny Abbarientos, the coca cola tigers have contended for the title the last couple of years. …
2008 Green Bay Packers
Packers training camp is just around the corner and, being the fan that I am (and being absolutely bored today) I feel I would take a few minutes to review what I feel to be a very talented team with potential for great things; assuming a few weak spots …
Ricky Ponting
Ricky Ponting is the present Australian captain. He recently equaled the world record of making Australia winning its consecutive 16th test match when they beat India today on 6th January 2008. He has been one of the most successful captains of Australian team. He is an excellent batsman …
India’s chance of winning the world cup cricket 2007
I really love to write the chances of India winning the world cup 2007. Every Indian billion people dream of India winning the world cup 2007. I am also having the dream. Certainly, India is one of the favourites to win the world cup 2007. Always …
