New York Jets Preseason
Now that training camps are starting, I’m taking a look at the NFL and looking at each team individually.
I’m currently looking at the AFC East and what could be an interesting division to watch this year. One of those teams is the New York Jets.
Last season, the Jets took …
Tennis Racket: Prince More Control
I used the Prince More Control tennis racket last year before changing to the Babolat Aero Tour racket. At first i was more impressed with its cosmetics. it has a two toned color(black and white) that produces an effect of having two faces. I expected this to have an …
Carl Froch v Arthur Abraham - Super Six Fight
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 …

The stadium, called “Mane Garrincha” - the name of an excellent and legendary brazilian football player, was completelly full, with about 45,000 expectators. The spectators were so educated and the city demonstrated a very …
Andray Blatche
To me Andray Blatche of the Washington Wizards is the most improved player of the season so far. I know that a lot of people will argue a case for Dwight Howard or Azuibuke of the Golden state warriors but to me the player who has shown great strides …
Expn.com/nba
Espn probably the most widely known sports channel in the world, also has a popular website to boot. Espn.com/nba is their offering to the world of NBA basketball coverage. More Spumier and hip than your regular sports webpage, ESPN tried to convey unto their webpage the type of character …
Brendan Haywood
Former National collegiate champion member of the North Carolina Tar Heels Brenadan Haywood is valuable to the Washington wizards if not for his size alone. He is a pure seven footer that has a big body and uses it to control the paint. Haywood has limited skills offensively. He …
NASCAR Cup Race June 29, 2008-New Hampshire
I’m not a big fan of the track in New Hampshire, mainly because it tends to look fairly empty whenever they race there. NASCAR keeps saying that they need to expand to reach all the markets and all the areas where they have fans. That’s true, but I think …
NFL Pro Bowl
I was reading about this years NFL Pro Bowl selections this morning and once again, as a fan, I have to ask the question; why do they even bother with the event.
I’m not saying they shouldn’t pick the top players in the league for their individual achievement. I’m saying …
Thadeus Young
Another of the young talents that i really expected to blossom this year for the Philadelphia 76ers is young guard Thadeus Young whom they drafted in the first round of last years draft. He has the physical attributes to be a good scorer in this league. His lean, his …
Tampa Bay Buccaneers Stadium-Raymond James Stadium

I could feel the rush of …
Ping In-Series Wack-E Putter
My husband has probably tried 30 putters over the last few years, searching for that (obviously elusive) putter that was perfect for his stroke and all the other factors that go into a decision about golf clubs. I have gotten quite bored of hearing about all of the different …
Mongoose Pro Mountain Bike
I love riding on our Mongoose Pro mountain bike. Well, it’s actually my husband’s bike so I just borrow it when I want to use it. I think he bought it for about $500. But he bought it in the Philippines so I guess it will be cheaper in …

“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 …
Rex Grossman
Rex staked his claim to a job in ‘03, when he became the first known Bears rookie signal-caller to win his first two starts. In fact, only Jim McMahon (in 1982) ever had won even his initial start. In his second game, Grossman threw a record-setting pass, as his …
Cleveland Browns Preseason
I’m old enough to remember the controversy created when the Browns left Cleveland and became the Baltimore Ravens and the decision by the NFL to bring an expansion team to that city as a way to compromise.
Today, I wonder why they even bothered.
The Browns haven’t been in the playoffs …

Scottie Pippen
Scottie Pippen was one of my favorite NBA players of all time. Not because he was Michael Jordan’s sidekick but also he was one of the most versatile players of the game. Pippen is long and plays with such smarts that he was the ultimate complimentary player to a …
Miami Dolphins Preseason
Last year, the Miami Dolphins came from pretty much no-where to win their division and make the playoffs. This is after only winning one game the year before. So, naturally, things are looking up for this team and they can only build on that success this year; or can …
2006 Detroit Lions
Over the past few years, the Detroit Lions have been a joke. Each year, they draft the next big star only to continue to be one of the worst teams in the league.
This year, I think they may surprise a few people.
The defense hasn’t improved much in terms of …
Penny Hardaway
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 …
Darius Songaila

Jermaine O’Neal
Fresh out of high school eleven years ago, power forward/center, Jermaine O’Neal, was thrown right into action for the Indiana Pacers. Along side Reggie Miller, O’Neal spent the first few years as an average player. But considering his top level competition came while attending Eau Claire High School, he …
Melvin Ely
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 …

Juwan Howard
Juwan Howard of the Dallas Mavericks came back to them after he was released by the Minnesota Timberwolves after they traded Kevin Garnett. I consider Howard as one of the model citizens in the NBA. He is some sort of like a spokesperson in the league and is one …
Ryan Grant
With the Green Bay Packers struggling to find a running game, I’m a bit surprised at this point in the season that they haven’t given running back Ryan Grant an opportunity to get more playing time.
A solid special teams player, Grant has had very few carries with the offense; …
Erick Dampier
The starting Center for the Dallas Mavericks, Erick Dampier has been a disappointment ever since he came into the Mavericks when he signed that monster contract. It is really unfair in the NBA for the teams sometimes when a situation like this happens. A player like Erick Dampier who …
Linksman Golf X7 3 Wheel Golf Cart
The best way of describing this cart is: The Linksman Golf X7 is the generic version of Sun Mountain’s V1 Speed 3 Wheel Cart.
That is basically it. They emulated that design but made some crucial changes. First, the handle is adjustable so it accommodates any height and helps out …
