Unfortunately for us Aggie fans, the Aggies were outscored. However, …

Although Grant is nearing the end of his career, he was and could still be a great tough player. Grant on his haydays playing for the Portland Trailblazers was a very tough player both offensively and defensively. He was a very solid inside and was like a rock to …

Ranked in the top ten best leagues in the world, I think much of the basis for this ranking lies firmly on the amount of money flowing through the Absa Premiership, the sponsorships as well as the organization, but not the quality of football itself.
As a South African, soccer …

The first of two first round draft picks from the Buffalo Bills, Lee Evans turned out to be just what the team needed. A lack of speed and depth at the wide receiver position prompted the front office to go out and pick up some talent. For this, they …

Right now as a rookie for the Milwaukee Bucks, Yi Jianlin has so far looked so pedestrian to me. He certainly got game but it will need at least a good 2-3 seasons before the Bucks will fully reap the benefits of drafting him with a top 5 pick …

Bristol, Tennessee is a short track that always provides plenty of action, and today was no exception. Veteran Mark Martin led the field to the green flag.
Some news, notes, and perceptions:
–Darrell Waltrip commented on Kyle Busch’s actions at the end of the Nationwide race yesterday. The younger …

Never in the history of the NFL have I seen a more sporadic quarterback than the Chicago Bears quarterback, Rex Grossman. Sexy Rexy as he is so colorfully coined by his fans, tends to lean on the side of football sociopath, no feelings or empathy for what he does …

I first spotted Chris Hero in a short lived tag-team with his real life friend, CM Punk, who is now on the ECW brand of World Wrestling Entertainment. Chris Hero has amazing potential, and looking back, I find it hard to grasp that only CM Punk was signed and …

Eurosport is a television channel broadcast via satellite and available across many European countries. It is broadcast in many European languages, such as English, German and Polish for example.
I often watch Eurosport as it offers coverage of sports not often seen elsewhere. I enjoy watching minority sports such …

Well, I’ve been holding off on writing my opinion about the various NFL teams until I had a chance to see them in action. And, when I say in action, I mean real action; not the fake action you see in preseason.
I didn’t get an opportunity to watch the …

The Holt family has definetly been good to North Carolina State’s football program that they have. Both Torry and brother Terrence, a walk -on safety, were Wolfpack All-Americans. Torry really supported his yonger brother both financially and with good advice. After following Torry’s suggestion that he not take easy …

Manchester United had been the top dogs in Manchester for many years now, but the wealthy owners of Manchester City had spent a lot of money on good players to show that they meant business. Despite this, recent Derby matches between the two had gone Manchester Uniteds way and …

These paintballs are pretty good, and are definitely up to my standards. They’re good enough for tournaments, however I prefer different paintballs which cost about the same. RPS tends to make better paintballs, so I prefer RPS All Star and Marballizer paintballs as far as tournament play goes.
Evil paintballs …

Inzmamm ul Huq recently retired from international cricket. He was the most successful Pakistani batsman ever. He averaged over 45 in test and scoreed over 10000 runs in cricket. Only 5 batsman in the world able to do that he is very cool player and hardly losses his head. …

I have always thought that Miami Heat General Manager/Head Coach Pat RIley is an old fraud. He took over the team after he initiated deals that netted him a rather healthy O’neal away from the Los Angeles Lakers. When he noticed that his team had the chance to get …

Whenever people talk about quarterbacks, longevity is one of the things that is considered. And, in Vinnie Testaverde’s case, you aren’t going to find many quarterbacks that have lasted longer.
Testaverde is the first overall pick of the 1987 draft. He’s been in the league for 20 years; something that …

I attended the draw for the Confederations cup to be held as a dress rehearsal for the 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa, and I generally felt as if they were making something really big out of something which is not all that big. The draw itself was …

Yet to win away from home in the league, Manchester Uniteds next test was a trip away to play Sunderland. Just like Bolton this was never an easy game. For United it always seemed to be a fixture that was either very comfortable or very tight, as like Bolton, …

Guards in the NBA are making a comeback. When Shaq, Alonzo Mourning and Dikembe were all in their prime, it was land of the big men. But now that the calender reads 2008, it’s out with the old, in with the new. This is true on almost every team …

Troy Meyers is one of the best high-school running backs in the entire USA. Just last night 8/25/06 he probably ran for about 250 yards against the Pendleton Heights Arabians in their upsetting 27-21 defeat for Greenfield. Meyers will probably easily make a college squad, and then from their …

I came across the Odyssey White Hot Tour Putter and I really do not see how this putter can stand out with regards to the other odyssey putter models.

Koren Robinson is an NFL player with a lot of talent who basically ruined his career by letting demons take over.
Playing for the Packers this year, I saw how Robinson can help a team both by returning kicks and providing them with a dependable deep threat receiver. However, throughout …

Last season, the Chargers, who were arguably the most talented team in the league player wise, backed into the playoffs with an 8-8 record and needed to beat the Denver Broncos in the final week to do that much. However, once they did make the playoffs, they almost managed …

Damon Stoudamire of the Memphis Grizzlies is one of the most quickest point guards there was in the NBA. With age catching up with him though he has slowly declined and his contributions are lower than what they used to be. Still Stoudamire is a serviceable point guard at …

It’s hard enough to play proffesional sports in the Big Apple, but playing quarterback in New York is something entirely different.

There’s only one reason B.J. Sander is on the Packers roster after two disappointing seasons as Punter. Former Coach Mike Sherman refused to give him any competition for the spot because he didn’t want to be wrong about using a 3rd round choice on him. If it weren’t for …

I will admit, I’m surprised by the Washington Redskins’ decision to hire Seattle Seahawks quarterback coach Jim Zorn as their head coach. This is both because I’m used to owner Dan Snyder making a big splash when he hires his coaches and because I’m not sure he’s the right …

Probably one of the best shot blocking big man to ever play the game. He has great timing and before he had kidney transplant, Mourning was an unstoppable force in the middle. He owned an array of shots and abilities with either facing up or posting down low in …

Akeem The African Dream as he was known, was a wrestler most famous in the 80’s and 90’s as both Akeem and One Man Gang. I was never a fan of his, and personally found him to be obnoxious and a waste of television time. However, he was well …

I am neither a fan of the two teams. In fact, I don’t like to see them win so other can have the chance at the championship. However, watching the two of them slug it out in the first round of the Eastern Conference Playoffs was simply amazing!

The Bengals haven’t had much success drafting quarterbacks in the past but I think they finally found their future in quarterback Carson Palmer.
Barring injury, Palmer may be the key to the Bengals returning to the Super Bowl for the first time since the 1980s. Even though he’s only been …
