Andre Johnson
The Houston Texans haven’t had much success since their inception a few years ago. With a bust at the quarterback position with David Carr, and an upsetting loss to the Cowboys in their second installmen of the Governers Bowl, the Texans seem to be moving south of the border …
Longhorns-Aggies Football Game
Thanksgiving always means football, and this Thanksgiving weekend has been no exception. This Thanksgiving we got to see Texas A&M’s Maroon Out game, where they played longtime rivals University of Texas on their home turf at Kyle Field.
Unfortunately for us Aggie fans, the Aggies were outscored. However, …
Anthony Johnson
Anthony Johnson of the Atlanta Hawks is one of the most reliable point guards out there. He is primarily a back-up point guard that comes off the bench and produce heavily. He has played for some really good teams backing up really good point guards as well. He was …
Antonio Mcdyess
Former Denver Nuggets All-star Antonio Mcdyess who now dons the Detroit Pistons Jersey was one of those annointed as the next line of superstars that would carry the league for years to come. Unfortunately for Mcdyess, he injured his knee and was relegated to a lot of rehabilitation and …

I was listening to Mike and Mike in the Morning on ESPN radio as I do every day on my commute into work when Peter King was brought on as a guest earlier this week. The topic of discussion was the NFL’s overtime rule. As it stands …
Greg Oden
Last year there was a bit of controversy in the Ohio State Buckeyes NCAA division 1 mens basketball program. It appeared as though the team had let the school janitor play. After asking around, I found it it wasn’t the janitor, but I’m still not convinced that it wasn’t …
Score Select
2006 Score Select is one of the best brands of cards that you can get. I love my Vince Young, Reggie Bush, Matt Leinart, and A.J. Hawk rookies. I believe that this brand is worth a lot more than you pay to buy a pack. My opinion is that …
Brandon Roy
The starting two guard for the Portland Trail Blazers and the reigning NBA Rookie of the year awardee, Brandon Roy has developed his game further than that of last year. With a better feel for the pro game and bigger confidence after achieving what he did last year in …

Chicago Bears 2008 recap
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, …
Charlie Weis
I think that Charlie Weis, after five years at Notre Dame, should be fired for many reasons. One reason I think that Charlie Weis should be fired is because in the last three years, his teams have not been performing up to expectations. Yes, I admit that he has …
Wrestler: Bret The Hitman Hart
Bret ‘The Hitman’ Hart, alongside the likes of Chris Benoit, Dean Malenko and The Dynamite Kid Tommy Billington, is one of the greatest technical and mat based wrestlers I have EVER had the pleasure of watching. He was a man capable of making anyone look good in victory or …
Kwame Brown
In my opinion, Kwame Brown is probably one of the most disappointing first over-all pick of all time. Probably second worst to Michael Olowokandi. Brown has the size, Athleticism and strength to be a marginal player at worst and an all star at best.
The problem with him is that …
NASCAR Nationwide Race June 7, 2008
As a die hard NASCAR fan you’ll find me sitting in front of the television or in the stands for every NASCAR event including both the Sprint Cup races and the Nationwide races. Every so often there’s a race that makes me turn off the television and the June …
Chris Duhon
During his time spent with the NCAA mens college basketball divison 1 team, the Duke Blue Devils, Chris Duhon was the yin to Luol Deng’s yang. The duo wowed fans and made believers out of critics. It’s a given that the Blue Devils will always have talent. There’s something …

Dwight Howard
The Orlando Magic’s franchise got the wishes when they won the ‘02 NBA draft. They selected Dwight David Howard out of South Christian academy in Atlanta. Howard in my humble opinion will eventually blossom into those rare breed of NBA players that are labeled as ” Franchise Changing” players. …
Rugby
My husband loves Rugby. I had never even really heard of it until I married him actually. At least I never thought it was anything that happened in the mainland US. After two years of him playing rugby I have truly come …

Tim Duncan of the San Antonio Spurs might be the ultimate superstar in the NBA. You won’t see that many Duncan jersey being worn around the country or the world for that matter but if i want to start a team and build it to be an NBA champion …
PS 9 Nahka-Sakke Heavy Bag

New England Patriots Preseason
Well, the New England Patriots finally lost a Super Bowl a couple seasons ago and, as a result, felt the so-called curse that happens to Super Bowl losers. The funny thing is the team is so well built, they almost beat it.
OK, show of hands here, when Tom Brady …
Kenny Thomas
Kenny Thomas of the Sacramento Kings has noticeable lost some edge to his game this season so far. He has been lost deep in the bench and averages only a few minutes a game for new head coach Reggie Theus. When he first started out his career with …

Zydraunas Ilguaskus
The “big Z” Zydraunas Ilguaskus of the Cleveland Cavaliers came into the league from lithuania and had really high expectations surrounding him. He is a seven foot three inch center who is very versatile and has a lot of moves in the pivot for chances of scoring. Although slightly …
Cincinnati Bengals
I didn’t know a whole lot about the Cincinnati Bengals this year until I got a chance to watch them first hand last night against the Green Bay Packers in pre-season.
After seeing them, I have to say I think Marvin Lewis needs to be afraid of losing his job …
NASCAR - 2009 Kroger Tools 500

Raef LaFrentz
Raef LaFrentz entered the league as the fourth overall pick in the 1998 NBA draft for the Denver Nuggets. And if truth be told, i was scared to death with this guys potential. Of all the comparative talks about who’s gonna be the next Larry Bird, LaFrentz was the …
Tracy McGrady
Tracy McGrady or more popularly known as t-mac for me is one of a handful of players that can take over a game and end it right there at that moment. T-mac scores in bunches and once he starts feeling it, it is game over. His such a dominant …
Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics - Men’s 30k Pursuit
The Men’s 30k Pursuit at the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics proved to be quite the surprise. This event starts out with four laps of classic and then four laps freestyle skiing.

Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics - Speed Skating - Men’s 1500m
The Men’s 1500 meter Speed Skating event at the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics was full of excitement and some despair.

2007 World Series
THe 2007 World Series was a pretty disappointing affair, I thought. The scheduling was horrible, as if Major League Baseball is too afraid to try to go head to head with college football. We ended up seeing games played mostly on weekday evenings, with hardly any good …

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 …
