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 …

Peyton Manning is the best quarterback in the history of the National Football League in my humble opinion. But to be that good, you always need someone whom you can throw the ball to at all times. Joe Montana had it, Troy Aikman had it, Steve Young had it, …

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 …

Bob Backlund was the WWWF champion from 1978 - 1983. He had becomes a controversial figure because he was a rather bland champion who decidedly lacked charisma, but he maintained a solid drawing card ability that did not diminish until the very last few months of his title reign. …

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 …

Greg Oden who was drafted as the first overall pick in this year’s NBA draft instantly felt what its like to be in the bottom of your emotions in the NBA. After his selection by the Portland TrailBlazers, Oden suffered a season ending injury even before he got to …

The NASCAR races at Infineon are typically fairly boring at least in my opinion. I have a hard time staying focused on the races that take place at the road courses because you don’t see a lot of racing going on. The drivers tend to play it safe and …

The first over all selection of that legendary ‘03 draft was Lebron James from Akron OH. Even at a young age James was already gifted with excellent physical attributes that would make him a prodigy in basketball. And since he came to the NBA his been nothing but greatness.

Baseball is my passion. I especially love minor league baseball. I was in my element recently at a home game for the Yakima Bears. There’s something special about minor league baseball. It isn’t all dressed up and the players are trying to prove themselves so they really try as …

Donyell Marshall whom the Cavaliers acquired through free agency three years ago has been at sporadic at times. He can certainly shoot the ball and can also be effective in the middle. Marred with injuries so far these year, Marshall has seen his playing time dwindle.
I did remember the …

What is up with the Braves this year? It seems like they can’t decide if they want to continue being a good team or if they want to end their record breaking 14 straight titles over the past 14 years this year. They also seem to …

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 …

After the death of their starting safety Sean Taylor, I would have written the Washington Redskins season off as a doomed year. This is especially true after they lost their starting quarterback Jason Campbell to an injury.
However, back up quarterback Todd Collins has really surprised me this season. What’s …

Jose Calderon of the Toronto Raptors who backs up TJ Ford for them has slowly evolved into a starting point guard type of a player. At times, late in some of the Raptors games. Coach Sam Mitchell prefers to have Calderon in the game rather than Ford and in …

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 …

When the Packers opted not to re-sign Ahman Green, there was a lot of speculation about who their starting running back would be. In my opinion, the best guy they have at the position is one that probably shouldn’t have even made the team.
DeShawn Wynn was a 7th round …

The nine hole Par 3 golf course in Severna Park is one that may get some mixed opinions, depending upon the type of golfer you are. Personally, the first thing that I consider when looking for a round of golf is the price. I …

With Randy Moss on the roster, it wasn’t as if Minnesota needed another potentially explosive receiver, but they drafted one in Burleson. Last season, the ‘02 NCAA receptions leader started nine games and piled up the fifth-most receiving yards ever by a Vikings rookie. “Nate just gets better,” the …

Detroit Pistons PG Chauncey Billups carried the pistons into the finals and during the classic battle with the then heavily favoured the LA lakers. Billups is a scoring point guard who can post-up and also step outside to shoot the deep balls. Widely known for his heroics during end-game …

I just bought this bat approximately three weeks ago. I got this bat because one of my teammates had a 2010 Omaha and I loved the feel and pop of the bat. The bat is all black with silver font. I personally think the bat looks very nice. Most …

Over a decade ago there was a player coming out of the the Connecticut Huskies NCAA mens basketball program who had all the buzz. Six foot five guard Ray Allen would prove that he had chops for both basketball and the silver screen. After being drafted in the first …

If the Bears repeat as NFC North Champs this year it’ll be because they play in a weak division, not because of anything they did over the offseason.
The Bears defense is going to scare teams and I expect it to rank in the top 5 this year. However, they …

The Tampa Bay Rays are the best story in sports (now that the Cubs are out of the race). Since their creation, this baseball team has consistently found itself at the bottom of the baseball standings, always having to compete with the big markets and big money of …

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 …

The Rollerblade Lightning inline skates are awesome! I have been inline skating for 18 years now, and have found that Rollerblade is the best brand.

The Troy Golf and Country Club in Troy, Alabama is a golf club I have visited every year for the past 9 years. I return every year because I enjoyed my experience so much the first time around. Troy is an 18-hole course with a great selection of short …

Former Boston Celtic and all-star Antoine Walker has taken in a supporting role with the Miami Heat just for the chance in winning it all. This decline in his role is testament to what he has undermied as an important factor in his career and his life. Instead of …

Ricky Davis of the Miami Heat has often been maligned for being a selfish player in the league. I remember once about five years ago. I was watching a cleveland cavaliers game and Ricky Davis was with cleveland that year. With about 14 seconds left in the game it …

I got the wave for Christmas after seeing it at Sportsauthority, i tried it out and loved it. The wave is like surfing, skateboarding, snowboarding, and Skim boarding all in one board. The wave features a two platforms connected by a bar in the center. On …

Peyton Manning of the Indianapolis Colts is probably one of my most favorite quarterbacks of all time. I have three in that category in Bret Favre and Tom Brady. Manning though in my own opinion is one of the best offensive quarterbacks. He has great vision that enables him …

Now this is a face only a mother can love. Mike Dunleavy Sr. reminds me of Kevin Spacey if he let himself go, got hit my a train, and started going bald. No, all kidding aside, Mike Dunleavy Sr. is an incredible coach in my opinion. Not that he …

I am in the market for a new golf pull cart. I wanted something that was compact, folds easily, could be carried rather effortlessly, and works great.
I think I found it with the new 2010 Sun Mountain Micro Cart. This is the first push cart I have seen with …

I had the opportunity to use and ride in a Wintec 2000 All Purpose saddle for a while. Many people use the synthetic Wintec saddles and those who have the 2000 All Purpose love its comfort and low maintenance. I tried the Wintec out for about four months, and …

Very nice item if you can afford it. (If you are a smart shopper you will drop about $300-350 after shipping)
Well built, and very useful. You adjust the weight by simply turning a dial. From 5-52.5 lbs in very small increments. You could go from 5,7.5,10,12.5,15, and on upward …

With the NFL draft just a week away (and dragging on in the process), I figured it was time to once again take a look at the Green Bay Packers and get a feel of where the team is heading into their one opportunity to land cheap talent before …

I really don’t know how this team came to it’s downfall. Four years removed from being serious title contenders in the West when they had magnificent starting line-up of Webber, Divac, Bibby, Stojakovic and Christie. Mike Bibby is still running the show with old holdovers in Brad Miller backing …

Martell Webster came into the league straight out of high school and was drafted by the Portland Trail Blazers as their lottery pick in the year 2004. He came in with a great reputation as a pure shooter with the best release in that rookie class and unfortunately for …

The veteran Eric Snow of the Cleveland Cavaliers is one of the guys i respect in the league. I remember him when he was a rookie in the league and he was playing for the Seattle Supersonics. Back then he was young and very thin and he was strictly …

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 …
