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 …

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 …

I took the opportunity to try these shoes when I saw a barely-used pair advertised cheaply on Ebay. They came highly recommended by fellow-runners for their light weight and superb grip. F-lites are marketed as a road shoe but other users said they had performed outstandingly well …

Jason Terry is the firepower off the bench for the Dallas Mavericks. Gifted with incredible speed, he often leaves his defenders in the perimeter using a variety of moves. He has perfected the art of head pumping, head fake and head and body shake that eludes him off of …

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 Head Liquidmetal 2 Tennis rackets is one of my favorite mid plus sized tennis rackets out in the market today. It has a very cool design as well with a yellow trimmed with silver/gray in the sides and a black handle. With a head size of 106 square …

I have a friend named Quentin Richardson. Of course, growing up with him, we didn’t know that there would one day be a professional basketball player that shared the same name. But once there was, we used to incessantly tease him. I don’t think he minded at the time, …

Scott Steiner. Big Poppa Pump, The Genetic Freak, The big Bad Booty Daddy or Freakzilla. Whatever you know him better as, Scott Steiner is one of the names in professional wrestling that I grew up watching with me being a professional wrestling fan from a very young age. The …

I can’t say I’m a huge fan of the Nordic Combined sport. I do watch it, every four years at the Olympics, but something about it doesn’t usually excite me. However, the ending alone of this grueling event, the Nordic Combined Individual Normal Hill - 10kh of …

The Chicago Bulls have struggled mightily this year to start the new season which confuses me greatly since they have a great line-up on the floor. I am really lost as to what happened to them this year so far. As an avid NBA fan and a great follower …

I have to admit that i didn’t even know Charlie Villanueva when he first enter the league playing for the Toronto Raptors. But with the big rookie season that he had for that team, as an avid NBA fan, i started taking notice at once. Eventually he was a …

In the National Football League, coaches are a dime a dozen. There seems to be one in and one out on every single team about every three or so seasons average. Mike Holmgren may be one of the only exceptions. His stint with the Seattle Seahawks is looking promising. …

I typically play golf in the summer 5 to 6 days out of the week, and I was seeking a driver that gave me good distance but was forgiving to a mis-swing. When I came upon the 2008 Burner driver at a golf store in Indiana it was …

Quentin Richardson of the New York Knicks is one of the most boastful players in the NBA. I know he is well known for being the Boyfriend of R&B singer Brandy but in the NBA world, Richardson has declined from being a starter to a bench player. Don’t get …

An original pick for the Detroit Pistons, Jason Maxiel has turned into a reliable big man off the bench for Flip Saunders and Pistons. He comes into the game and immediately affects the game. He can score on a number of ways in and around the basket area. He …

Robert Swift who is the consensus starter in the Center spot for the Seattle Supersonics is perhaps the most injured player in the NBA today. Many people will debate some cases for some players in the league as well but nevertheless, you can’t stop but think of the possibilities …

Rasheed Wallace has been T’d up three times since I started writing this. If anyone knows who this guy is, they know he is the undisputed reigning bad boy of basketball. The twelve year veteran out of the great North Carolina Tarheel program in the NCAA divison 1 mens …

The Miami Dolphins today named Joey Harrington their starter over former starter Dante Culpepper. I agree with this decision.
Harrington really hasn’t done much throughout his career to earn a starting spot. However, Culpepper has looked downright awful during the first part of the season.
First, he doesn’t seem to have …

While soccer is my first love in terms of sporting codes, there is a very special place in my heart for cricket.

A lot of people think this is the year the Arizona Cardinals finally end their losing streak and make the playoffs. I’m not convinced.

The Green Bay Packers may soon find themselves looking for a replacement for quarterbacks coach Tom Clements. That is, of course, if other teams realize just how great of a job he’s done and look to sign him as an offensive coordinator.
Clements had the task of taking a 38-year-old …

The Cleveland Cavaliers have a lot to look forward to in their future. They have probably the best big-small man of all time in Lebron James. They have a young roster of player that are all willing to learn and take things one step at a time. And they …

Can you imagine doing anything for sixteen years. The same job, day after day, month after month, year after year. It might drive some people crazy. It doesn’t have that effect on the Houston Rockets back up center, Dikembe Mutombo. He is an ageless wonder from the Georgetown Hoyas …

This is a small skatepark put up that is “temperary”. It is only there until the LRT tracks come, although this will not be for a couple of years, so skate away well you can.
The location of the park is nice. The next nearest skateparks in the south are …

Well Saturday April 21st is the big day for my grandaughter Shelly, as this is the first year she has joined Little Leauge! She’s eight years old. I’m so proud of her for wanting to join a sport. I’m even more proud, because she wanted to buy her glove …

Son of NBA legend Bill Walton, Luke Walton has slowly made a name for himself in the league as one of the best one on one defenders in the league. He currently plays the small forward position for the Los Angeles Lakers but he can also defend the opposing …

To the older English football fan the most famous FA Cup Final ever is probably what became to be known as the Matthews Final, except possibly the one in 1923 at Wembley when a mounted policeman on a white horse ushered the overspill crowds off the pitch so that …

The Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympic games continued its biathlon events with the Women’s 12.5 Pursuit Mass Start. I prefer the mass starts over the individual, separated timed events. I want to see competition, fast and furious. It leads to more thrills and excitement, and that’s what …

It took the England cricket selectors much too long, in my opinion, to give Andrew Strauss the national captaincy (at least as far as Test cricket is concerned) on a permanent basis. When Michael Vaughan stepped down, Strauss performed pretty well in a tricky series against Pakistan, but was …

I consider Leandro Barbosa as the fastest man in the NBA. He gets into transition faster than a car and most importantly he converts majority of his drives to the basket. He has the complete package to be a dominant scorer in the NBA as he has no surprisingly …

It’s interesting to see NFL Guard Mike Wahle continuing his career with the same coach he started his career with, Mike Holmgren. However, if the Seahawks think they are getting the same dominating lineman that left the Green Bay Packers a couple of years ago, they are mistaken.
Wahle is …

The Los Angeles Clippers through persistence has risen from the ruins of being the league’s doormat team to team filled with players capable of taking this team to another level and to respectability at last. Corey Maggette is one of those players they’ve got. He is offensively gifted when …

The first time I witnessed Benni play was under very controversial circumstances in which the young seventeen-year-old, eyebrow-raising selection proved the then South African national team coach, Jomo Sono, to be right in picking the young lad. A true desire to make his mark saw him play with real …
