The next round of the Carling Cup saw Manchester United pit their wits against Wolverhampton Wanderers. Last year Wolves had fielded a weakened side in the league at Old Trafford and received widespread criticism for it, but this time the side that was going to play looked quite useful. …

This coming weekend, Vikings Quarterback Brooks Bollinger may get yet another chance to start in the NFL. But, like his previous times starting, it is more because of injuries than him actually earning a job.
Bollinger was a great quarterback for the Wisconsin Badgers. But, his game is better suited …

Way back in the way back machine, the year was 1995 and there was a team in NCCA mens division 1 basketball that would one day go down as the (arguably) greatest college basketball team of all time. This team? The Duke University Blue Devils. With players like Christian …

Los Angeles Lakers Forward/Guard Lamar Odom is one of the more unique players in the league. Odom is listed at 6 feet 10 inches long and has arms that has so much length that it probably belonged to a 7 footer. But, what makes him a unique NBA player …

Ok, when people talk about Chicago Bears’ player Devin Hester, I will be the first to admit he’s pretty fast. After all, Madden Football gave him the first ever 100 speed rating.
But, I also think he’s very overrated.
The guy is dangerous as a kick returner. But, the fact he …

The St. Louis Rams are trying to determine if Lamar Gordon may be the eventual successor of their present running back Marshall Faulk. Although he was harrassed with injuries throughout 2003, the early returns have been very promising for Rams fans. The ‘02 third-rounder has shown explosiveness into the …

Quincy Douby, the one year guard out of Rutgers University, will no doubt make a name for himself in this league. I’ve seen the kid play. There have only been a few guards I’ve seen in the past decade that can do what he does. He can run the …

William Henderson is not a full back you’ll see in the pro bowl. And, playing for a Packers team that’s in transition, it’s likely you won’t see him in the playoffs before he eventually decides to retire.
However, in my opinion, he’s the best full back in the league. He’s …

I initially was drawn to the Black Widow Venom Hammer bowling ball because of the wonderful colors and design on the front of the ball. Let’s face it. Part of bowling is having a ball that is exciting and powerful at the same time. The Black Widow Venom Hammer …

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 …

Although retired now, i just can’t dare not to review the perhaps the greatest player to grace the courts of basketball. Michael Jordan was and will always be on a league in his own. Unparalleled player only levelled with by an elite few in the history of the game. …

These are Nike’s newest fairway woods. They accompany the new driver that was released in the Victory Red family.
Overall, I never quite see what the difference is in fairway woods. I feel that for the most part, they offer better control and I do not see much difference in …

All these European players with their offense, offense, offense. Did anyone ever teach these guys that the ball bounces both ways? Apparently not. I was watching the playoffs last year where I witnessed the Russian born player, Andrei Kirilenko get dunked on by Baron Davis. Sure, Baron dunks on …

way to Kelly Kelly.I think WWE needs to stop hiring models.The company as of …

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 …

First practice for NASCAR’s 2009 race at the Martinsville short track took place Friday morning on March 27th. Rain was threatening and would eventually rain out qualifying for that afternoon, but the Sprint Cup drivers were able to get in their entire morning practice.
My favorite, Jeff Gordon, ended …

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, …

The Newest addition to the Wilson line of tennis rackets are the K factor version. And same as with the older versions like the Ncode and the hammers, they’ve made a players racket that is more than anything a control oriented racket fitted for the better, stronger players out …

Of all the head coaching candidates this coming off season, Marty Schottenheimer will likely be the most sought after.
Schottenheimer has never won a Super Bowl. In fact, he hasn’t had a great post season record; which is why he was fired by the San Diego Chargers. But, he’s …

Brevin Knight was signed by the Clippers to replace the injured Shaun Livingston who suffered possibly a career ending injury last year. Knight is a good replacement for Livingston since he facilitates the offense better and is more of a veteran presence than Shaun. With Cassel starting at the …

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 …

The Florida State Seminoles had a fairly decent basketball team last year. Though playing in Florida, they will now always be second best to the back to back NCAA Division 1 Men’s Basketball National Champions, the Florida Gators. Though the Seminoles really can’t do much with being second best …

The decision is a program that aired on ESPN about a year ago that Lebron James showed up on to announce which team he was going to play for. He was currently a free agent with the Cleveland Cavaliers and there were several other teams that …

The Philadelphia 76ers have never really been a legitimate contender for anything in the past twenty plus years. Their team a few years ago with Allen Iverson was decent, getting to the finals against the Los Angeles Lakers, only to be knocked out in five games. Since then, the …

After a slightly stuttering start to the season, Manchester United were now back at home to face West Ham United. Their opposition had had a torrid time under Zola last season and were this time looking to stay as far away from the relegation zone as possible.
For any team …

Let me say going in that I think the scoring for the Original Dance of the Ice Dancing event at the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics was pretty spot on. I can’t really complain at all about how the judging went down, except that I might question just a …

Melvin Ely who recently signed with the New Orleans Hornets after brief stints with the Seattle Supersonics and the Los Angeles Clippers has sort of like found a home with the Hornets. His services are pretty much needed here with the team lacking toughness inside to develop a tradition …

“One” brand Thai pads for kickboxing and other martial arts and self defense training are some of the best pads (especially for their cost) that I have used in my experience. These pads typically are available in a black/red style with double straps along the back. One strap is …

I recently purchased two ‘Captains of Crush’ grippers, Supposedly some of the most well made hand grippers available on the market today.
Due to the marketing hype, I was expecting something extraordinary. I don’t think it should come as a surprise that my expectations were met.
The company that produces …

Andy Douglas is one of my current personal Favorites in the tag-team division along with his partner Chase Stevens. The Naturals as they are known, bring fresh new life into tag team wrestling which has declined to a major and critical extent since the demise of World Championship Wrestling, …

Chicago Bulls Head coach Scott Skiles has a very strict mannerism and attitude when it comes to reputations in the NBA. He is often criticized for it after leaving a team or after a player leaves a team like Tyson Chandler did when he was traded to the New …

The Arizona Cardinals finished eight and eight season with newly acquired head coach Ken Whisenhunt. Firing Dennis Green last year, the Cardinals needed a coach with both a mind for the game and a flare for offensive production. Though it’s usually the defense of a team that wins ball …

Carlos Delfino, the Argetinian born small forward/shooting guard for the Toronto Raptors has a short, yet somehow long history in this league. The six foot six Delfino had always dreamed of NBA stardom. But he would soon find that a career in the National Basketball Association would be difficult …

Even when Micheal Jordan roamed the NBA courts i have always adored Penny Hardaway. Coming out of Memphis, Hardaway was selected 3rd overall by the Golden State Warriors, on draft day he was traded to the Orlando Magic for the rights of the first overall selection of Chris Webber …

In my opinion, Korver owns one of the quickest shots in the league history. He gets off his attempts pretty quickly therefore making it really difficult for a defender to block or at least challenge the shot.
He is also one of the best three point shooters in the …

I am not happy with this one. This is going to be another dust accumulator in my home. Had it for two months and used it twice a week from the time I bought it. I thought that by buying something expensive from a trusted brand would be good. …

Rahul Dravid is right handed Indian middle order batsman. He is called as the wall as he plays some solid innings and gives lot of strength to Indian middle order. Dravid was very unsuccessful when he came out in international cricket in one day and he failed to …

Barry Windham was one of the first people I saw when I first watched Professional Wrestling as a child. He was a heel at the time, so naturally I took a disliking to him as you do when your that age, but as I grew older I started to …

The Atlanta Falcons have falled victim to some tremendously bad luck this past year. Their star quarter Michael Vick was arrested and ultimately jailed for his involvement with dog fighting. Their new coach high tailed it back to college where the atmosphere is more forgiving. And Bill Parcells turned …

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 …

As part of the one/two guard punch for the Maryland Terrapins national championship winning basketball team a few years ago, Steve Blake was a surprisingly athletic player. The six foot three inch point guard did everything he could for Maryland to win that year, and the NBA scouts took …

Phoenix Suns Center Kurt Thomas whome they acquired from the New York Knicks on that Quentin Richardson deal is one fo the classiest guys on the league. He has won several community awards and acts like a true professional inside the court. Kurt Thomas also is very valuable for …

Charlie Bell caught my eye when he was playing guard for the Michigan State Spartans. This was only three short years ago, so I can remember him like it were only yesterday. Though he’s been drafted by and playing with the Milwaukee Bucks organization since then, I think i’d …

The National Basketball Association has some characters. Both on their teams and in their front offices. Ranging from outspoken attitudes to confusing names, the NBA is in no short supply of humor. This was evident to me when I heard the Milwaukee Bucks select Royal Ivey from the Texas …

Eddie House of the Boston Celtics is one of the most gifted quick shooters in the league today. I remember him when he was still playing for the Arizona Wildcats in his collegiate career and he scored like over 50 points in one game. I though he was gonna …

Eurosport is a television channel broadcast via satellite and available across many European countries. It is broadcast in many European languages, such as English, German and Polish for example.
I often watch Eurosport as it offers coverage of sports not often seen elsewhere. I enjoy watching minority sports such …

Brad Johnson has been around the league for a long time and there’s a reason. He’s not someone who’s going to light up the field at quarterback and make highlight reels. But, he’s a solid quarterback who is very accurate and very careful with the ball.
Last year, he proved …
