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 …

I have a great deal of respect for Bob Backlund as during his day, he was living proof that you did not need a gimmick to get over in wrestling. Alls that you needed was to be good at your craft, to be a good wrestler and have a …

Playing in the shadows of the “more popular” town rival the Lakers, the Los Angeles Clippers are slowly rehabilitating there image and team concept in general. After being labeled as a team with a cheap owner who won’t spend big time money to acquire quality free agents, the clippers …

Attending the annual Masters Golf Tournament at Augusta National is the dream of golfers from all over the world, a dream I was able to realize thanks to a friend of a friend! Masters badges for the tournament are like gold dust and people consistently pay high dollar for …

My family and I like to go to outdoor stadium events such as sporting events or shows and the races. The problem I have is that because I have a bad back, it is painful for my to spend a lot of time sitting on bleachers with no …

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.
I only remember him as a minor member in the faction known as the Full …

There’s an old saying “No place to go but up.” That description pretty much describes the Detroit Lions, who enter their first training camp after going 0-16 last year.
The Lions have made some significant changes over the past couple of months ranging from a new coaching staff to efforts …

This game can hardly be touted as the 2nd best bowl games of the year.
Michigan and USC is the BCS game I wanted to see, but Ohio State is #1 for sure and Florida isn’t my team by far and I don’t enjoy watching them this year.
2007 Rose Bowl …

Coby Karl of the Los Angeles Lakers and the son of Denver Nuggets head coach George Karl has had a tough road on the way to the NBA. He has had to endure media criticism and peer pressure just to get to where he is now. And it is …

Ranked in the top ten best leagues in the world, I think much of the basis for this ranking lies firmly on the amount of money flowing through the Absa Premiership, the sponsorships as well as the organization, but not the quality of football itself.
As a South African, soccer …

The New York Knicks certainly were not considered an elite franchise for the past 9 years. The NBA always criticizing the moves the franchise made up until two years ago when Donnie Walsh took over as team president. From the day he started working he had two goals; one …

I mentioned at one point that I was surprised when Dick Jauron kept his job following yet another 7-9 season with the Buffalo Bills. But, I wasn’t as surprised by that as I was when Marvin Lewis kept his job with the Cincinnati Bengals.

Christiano Ronaldo, the most important player in Manchester United has been transferred to Real Madrid in this season 2009-2010. At the beginning of his career in Manchester United, I think he still tried to tune in with the speed and rhythm of United’s playing style. He joined Manchester United …

The Portland Trailblazer’s started the offseason with a BIG BANG during the ‘06 NBA draft. Made 6 trades during the night that netted them the 2nd overall pick Lamarcus Aldridge from the Chicago Bulls. They also acquired the rights for the 6th overall pick Brandon Roy and Raef Lafrentz …

The Toronto Raptors are lucky to have found and signed Carlos Delfino away from the Detroit Pistons. I really like this player. He is very tough, strong and quick and above all i just can’t imagine his persona to be the type that would shy away from a challenge. …

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 …

The Memphis Grizzlies have got them a new coach to lead the charge this season. Marc Iavaroni, who sounds more like a Sopranos character than a head coach, will be in charge of turning the dead-set on losing Grizzlies, into legitimate contenders, or you can bet your sweet track …

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. …

Monta Ellis who won the Most Improved Player in the NBA a year ago has continued that progress and has become a legitimate scorer for the Golden State Warriors. I really like Ellis’s game, he can score in a variety of ways but the most amazing thing about his …

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, …

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 …

Somehow Jeff Foster of the Indiana Pacers have never developed into a better offensive player in the NBA than what he is now. I like him in the fact that he is a very good rebounder both offensively and defensively. He is really good at tipping in shots as …

This is another stadium which holds so much history for me, as the football team that I so avidly support has made use of this very stadium as a home ground for as many years as I can remember.
While many memories will eternally live on in me concerning the …

By far the best footballer I have ever seen in my time, although I was not privileged enough to catch all of the best games Zidane played in.
My first real encounter with the magical touch of Zinedine Zidane was during the 1998 FIFA World Cup, when he almost single …

Court General for the Orlando Magic, Jameer Nelson should be a valuable piece in the magic’s quest for the title in the years to come. With its young core of Dwight Howard and Darko Milicic in place, they should become the rising team in the East. Every marquee team …

One of the most volatile NBA players of all time Rasheed Wallace came into the Detroit Pistons in mid-season and made them the championship team that they are. The Pistons were already a good team when they made that trade for Rasheed virtually for nothing. Instantly the Pistons where …

Koren Robinson is an NFL player with a lot of talent who basically ruined his career by letting demons take over.
Playing for the Packers this year, I saw how Robinson can help a team both by returning kicks and providing them with a dependable deep threat receiver. However, throughout …

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 …

Im not a huge fan of Carl Froch, but i was interested to see how he would come back from his first career defeat when he faced Arthur Abraham in the Super 6 boxing competition. I didn’t know too much about Abraham, but the press seemed to build him …

I first noticed and so do the rest of the nation Kareem Rush while he was still playing for the Los Angeles Lakers in the Shaq and Kobe era. He was a key reserve for that team off the bench as he relieves some pressure off of shaq with …

When it comes to physical skill, Culpepper has everything you want at quarterback. He’s got a strong arm, he’s the size of a linebacker and he’s able to scramble for yards.
However, throughout the years, he hasn’t seemed to grasp the mental side of the position.
I blame the fact he …
