Jim O’Brien
When I think Indiana Pacers, I think Reggie Miller, The free flowing three point specialist that left his mark on the league and on Spike Lee when he threw his hands around his throat in a choking gesture at a game at Madison Square Garden in the playoffs. It …
Memphis Grizzlies
They will be a lottery team and will be at the bottom of the best division in the league. Looking at their line-up, I’m at a loss as to how they perform so bad with the team that they have. Starting Forward is Pau Gasol who a few years …
Jeff Garcia
When the Eagles first signed Jeff Garcia as a back-up quarterback, my question was “why.”
After seeing him play filling in for Donovan McNaab Sunday, I still have the same question.
There is no way Garcia should be playing in the NFL, even as a backup. He no longer has the …
Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics - Freestyle Skiing - Men’s Aerials
The Men’s Aerials finals in the freestyle skiing sport of the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics was exhilarating. These amazing athletes ski upside down into flips, tucks, and spins that are barely comprehendible. They go anywhere from 35 to 50 feet in the air, twist around, tumble over …
Wrestler: Big Vito
I first saw Big Vito in the later years of World Championship Wrestling tag teaming alongside Johnny The Bull as ‘The Mamalukes’ under the mentorship of Tony Mamaluke as a ‘mafia’ type team. He has a great superstar look, and has the ability to go far in the business …

Owning the starting point guard duties for the Toronto Raptors is miniscule guard TJ Ford. After a tragic first season in the league with the Milwaukee Bucks when he had that accident that broke his neck and it almost ended his playing career. Ford resurrected his NBA playing career …
Peja Stojakovic
Out of all the European players currently lending their services and talents to the National Basketball Association, Peja Stojakovic was probably the first and still one of the most famous. Of corse he wasn’t the first European player, but he was definitely one of the first legitimate super stars …
Wrestler: Big Guido
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 …
Grant Hill
Grant Hill of the Orlando Magic was a perenial all star before injury struck hard. Playing for the Pistons back then he was simply in a league on his own. Highly agile for a 6-8 forward/guard, he often entered the lane with his crossover moves, using his quickness and …
Terry Kinard
A tough hitter, Terry led the Giants with five interceptions and 15 passes defensed in ‘89. He also registered 58 tackles to bring his seven year career total to 493. Terry was an ‘83 NFL All-Rookie as he came up with 70 tackles. Signed as Plan B free agent …

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 …

Josh Howard
Dallas Mavericks starter at the small forward position is Josh Howard. Nowitzki might be the league’s MVP but Howard is the mavericks most valuable player so far. He does all the little things like going after loose balls, opponents shots, defensive rebounds, hustle plays and defense in general. He …
Malik Rose
Malik Rose of the New York Knicks is one of those players in the NBA that has a great knack for the ball. He is a bit undersized for a power forward or a Center but can match up pretty well in either of those positions since he can …
Big Z
Zydrunas Ilgauskus of the Cleveland Cavaliers is a unique player for his size. At 7-3 tall, Ilgauskus has the soft skills including hitting the jumpers, creating opportunities around the rim with jump hooks and spin moves. His also a very good offensive rebounder for the Cavs since he uses …

Jamaal Magloire was a former all star for the Eastern Conference and very nice pick up for the New Jersey Nets who last year lacked the depth and the toughness to contend for the title. With Magloire in hand and the return of starting Center Nenad Kristic from injury …
Adidas Jabulani Soccer ball

Kenyon Martin
Kenyon Martin of the Denver Nuggets is a former first overall pick in the NBA draft. He was selected first overall by the New Jersey Nets and on that year he won the Rookie of the year award. At six feet and ten inches tall, Martin is a pure …
Kwame Brown
In my opinion, Kwame Brown is probably one of the most disappointing first over-all pick of all time. Probably second worst to Michael Olowokandi. Brown has the size, Athleticism and strength to be a marginal player at worst and an all star at best.
The problem with him is that …
Jason Kidd
Jason Kidd of the New Jersey Nets is one of those NBA pure point guards that i really admire. He has these pass first mentality and an eye for the open lanes. What i like about his game is the fact that he’s never scared to turn the ball …
Tennis Racket: Head FLEXPOINT instinct
Great for intermediate level players that aren’t ready for the big time sticks like the Flexpoint Prestige, Ncode 6.1 tour, etc., It’s a tad above the tweener rackets since it has more emphasis on control rather than the in-between game the tweeners offer. Used by many touring pros such …
Sachin Tendulkar
When I was young, I started to watch cricket matches. Those were the early years of Sachin Tendulkar. I instantly became his fan. Strangely, after more than fifteen years, I am still watching him play and to be honest I see cricket matches only due to the presence …

TitanPoker
Titan Poker is by far my favorite of all online poker sites, for various reasons.
One thing they have which I will note is a great thing for both fish and sharks who just want to make small gains are excellent “double-up” tables where if you place 1st, 2nd, or …
Antoine Wright
Antoine Wright has been a big surprise early this season for the New Jersey Nets. With Vince Carter being out with injury early on, Wright has stepped into the starting line-up and has produced significantly for the Nets. He has given them toughness in the three spot and some …

While we were in Arlington Texas, to catch an Oriole Game against the Texas Rangers we were walking along the promenade when we saw a notice that they had a baseball museum. We have a baseball museum in Baltimore and decided that we would check theirs out while …
Bloemfontein Celtic Football Club
The die-hard fanaticism of the tens of thousands of Bloemfontein Celtic Football Club’s supporters, who have no problem filling any stadium anywhere in the country, is an ideal I strongly feel should be adopted by the entire South African football fraternity if South African football is to break new …
Luke Ridnour
With the Case of Luke Ridnour who was formerly the starter for the Seattle Supersonics, it is a change of fortunes for him. After being invited in the training camp for the Senior Men’s US national team, Ridnour has been in a downhill ever since.

Travis Diener
Travis Diener was given a chance in the NBA by the Orlando Magic. He was signed after going un-drafted in the ‘05 draft. And with the chance that the Magic gave to him, he re-paid them by going into games and contributing with his three point shooting.
Although it …

Ryan Howard
Ryan Howard is as strong as a ox . That’s the first thing you notice when watching him. He’s a huge lefthander 6′4″ 255. I love his demeanor he’s a young player but calm beyond his years. Howard hit 58 home runs in 2006. He was the 2006 …

Bushnell Laser Rangefinder
I found the perfect gift for my husband, an avid golfer, and he assures me that it is not only useful, but it has become integral to his golf game. I never go wrong with gifts that have something to do with golf, but I didn’t think he needed …

Let’s try to forget about recent disappoints of this past year. I’d like to remember the New Orleans Saints coach, Sean Payton for his commanding performance the year before. He brought a team back to glory and took them to the NFC championship. They were the pride of a …
Sean Williams
The Bruins of Boston College were a great team in the NCAA mens division 1 basketball tournament last year. And the main part of their well oiled machine was the six foot ten inch power forward slash small center, Sean Williams. Being so good, I wonder why he didn’t …
Liverpool Football Club
Whenever I catch a glimpse of Liverpool in action these days, I get a bit sad that one of our greatest rivals has succumbed to being reduced to an ordinary team, and as an Arsenal fan, contending with the likes of Manchester City, Everton and Tottenham Hotspur in addition …
Liverpool Soccer Team
Liverpool is my favorite team in English Premier League. This club has became my favorite since late 1980’s where Liverpool was become the major club winning the most trophy of English Premier League. It was 18 times, before Manchester United reached this number in 2009. But Liverpool has another …
