I’m a huge fan of Cleveland Browns football coach Romeo Crennel for a few reasons. The first and foremost being because he’s a Virginia boy, just like me, the secoond being because he’s the real deal.
A lot of people think that you can’t be a coach in the National …

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 …

THe 2007 World Series was a pretty disappointing affair, I thought. The scheduling was horrible, as if Major League Baseball is too afraid to try to go head to head with college football. We ended up seeing games played mostly on weekday evenings, with hardly any good …

Men’s Super G, a part of the alpine skiing competition for the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, was truly exciting to watch. As an American, I was thrilled to see Andrew Weibrecht do so well. He made a mistake up top, but recovered nicely and ended up …

I don’t think there is a coach in the entire National Football League who has it tougher than Houston Texans coach Gary Kubiak. Though he is a very smart man with a great game plan and approach to the game, the talent he has in Houston is minimal at …

There’s something special about the Houston Rockets. I’m not sure if I’m just feeling nostalgiac about Rudy Tomjanovich’s famous comment where he stated “never underestimate the heart of a champion” or if I’m just a huge Yao Ming fan. Regardless of why I think the Rockets are special, I …

Afa Anoia, anyone who is a fan of wrestling has heard of this famous name as one of the most recognizable in our sport. Afa Anoia Jnr is of course the Son of Wild Samoan Afa.

My family loves to go camping. We go as often as we can every summer. As much as we like to grill out or cook over the camp fire while we are at the campsite, there are times when doing either just isn’t convenient. For this reason, we decided …

Shaquille “the Diesel” O’neal is widely accepted as probably the most physically dominant player in NBA history. It’s not just that his big but how he uses his heft is how he becomes so dominant. Playing almost exclusively with his back to the basket, O’neal punishes his defenders with …

UFC 127 was a good card. In this review I’m only going to talk about the main event, B.J. Penn vs. Jon Fitch. As soon as the bell rang, Penn charged out strong, throwing a few punches, then to everyone’s surprise, shooting for a take down. Fitch initially fought …

What can I say? The ultimate scoring machine in the NBA right now. Needless to say his very valuable to the Lakers. He often creates his shots with wicked jab steps and crossover moves, head fakes, pump fakes and freakish speed to accomplish his fadeaway shots, drive to the …

The most amazing aspect of this race was the unexpected, and no, I don’t mean in the racing. Part of the asphalt track deteriorated so much that they stopped the race to repair it. The red flag came out with 78 laps to go, prompting a delay …
