Desert Springs is much more than a golf course. It has a sports club ‘El Club Deportivo la Sierra’, situated next to the Crocodile Club. You can enjoy games of tenis and paddle, work out in the gym, compete with your friends at volley ball and play …

The Buccaneers are a hard team to judge. They could either be in the playoffs or at the bottom of their division.
Coach Jon Gruden knows quarterbacks but I think he made a mistake when he let veteran Brian Griese get away. Chris Simms may be the future of the …

Forward/Center Ike Diogu of the Golden state warriors is a bit rough around the edges. He just came off an injury plagued rookie season which was somewhat successful as he was vital to their chase for that play-offs spot. When he came back from that injury he suffered early …

When it comes to physical skill, Culpepper has everything you want at quarterback. He’s got a strong arm, he’s the size of a linebacker and he’s able to scramble for yards.
However, throughout the years, he hasn’t seemed to grasp the mental side of the position.
I blame the fact he …

Shareer Abdur-Rhaim sounds more like a name you’ll find on the “No Fly” list than one you’d find on an NBA roster. But all jokes in horribly bad taste aside, this six foot nine inch forward who played college ball in California, has been burning the league for for …

Another one of those so called “journeyman” in the NBA. I remember him having played for at least three separate teams in his career so far. Now playing for the Charlotte Bobcats as more of a bench player to fill some open spots in the bench to meet the …

The recent prized addition to the MLS’s New York Red Bull franchise is none other than former French National team standout Thierry Henry. In addition to his duty with ‘Les Bleus’, Henry has starred for English Premier League team Arsenal, and La Liga giants FC Barcelona.
A month …

The nine hole Par 3 golf course in Severna Park is one that may get some mixed opinions, depending upon the type of golfer you are. Personally, the first thing that I consider when looking for a round of golf is the price. I …

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 …

There was a time when I thought Randy Moss was the guy most receivers would have to compare themselves to. He seemed absolutely unstoppable and, at one point, looked like a receiver that could make any quarterback look good.
Over time, I’ve come to learn that isn’t the truth. Yes, …

Aaron Gray of the Chicago Bulls has been a pleasant surprise for them in a season full of embarrassment and disappointments. He has shown the inclination and the talent to someday be a good player in the league. I see him as a Brad Miller type of a player …

The 2009 NASCAR season got under way with the Bud Shootout 2009 race on February 7 and while it didn’t end exactly how I wanted it to, it was a very good race.
This special race is run in two segments, the first being 25 laps and the second being …

Grant Hill broke my heart as an Orlando Magic fan the last seven years. He was basically a tease for me and the other Magic fans out there. Although by no means was it is fault, the contract that he signed seven years ago with Orlando crippled the team …

Orlando Magic coach Stan Van Gundy has helped transformed the Magic from a lottery team to a title contender. He has done it through changing the teams philosophy on offense. Before he took over the reins of being the teams head coach, it was Brian Hill who had the …

Minnesota Timberwolves who owned the seventh overall selection in this years draft took university of Florida Gators standout Corey Brewer. Many projected Brewer as probably the next Scottie Pippen in the league. They both have the same attributes physically in the sense that they are both tall and lanky. …

The Luverne Country Club about 40 miles south of Montgomery, Alabama is not the most prestigious golf club you will ever visit, but it is definitely one of the friendliest. I have played at Luverne every summer for the past 9 years and feel as though I am one …

Professional’s Choice Ballistic Overreach Boots are bell boots that offer your equine superstar superior protection from overreaching. Overreaching occurs when the horse steps so far underneath himself that his back hooves hit the front hooves, causing injury and pain. I have a horse who overreaches, but I will use …

I have been a wrestling fan for many years, but when the Rock stopped wrestling I no longer watched it anymore because I could see that the quality of the sport was not the same as it used to be in the days of Hart vs Bulldog in 1992. …

Robina Woods Golf Club in Robina, Queensland is half an hour from the city. We waited an hour to tee off, since we played on the 6,700-yard (championship tees) course on a Saturday, and up ahead were two flights of women that couldn’t get out fast from the …

I am an avid Nike Golf fanatic. I have their Victory red irons, driver, woods, and putter. Therefore, I am a little biased about their products. Unfortunately, when it came to bags, I always believed that their golf bags were very inferior compared to the other top bag makers.
That …

The Detriot Pistons had everything they could have ever dreamed of a few short years ago. They had a NBA championship in which they beat the Lakers in a route to win and they had the best coach in the world in my opinion, Larry Brown. They traded all …

The Kentucky Wildcats have a tradition of winning in the NCAA mens division 1 basketball circuit that is second to none. They have produced some very fine talent for the National Basketball Association and continue to do so. One of these players to come out eleven years ago was …

When the Oakland Raiders hired coach Lane Kiffin, I had a lot of doubts about him. And, while I’ve gained a little more respect for him following this past season, I do still think he’s way over his head.
Kiffin did a decent job producing on offense this season; despite …

Michael walter was a Inside Linebacker for the 49ers in 1988. Michael is an athletic, talented performer who worked well in the 49ers’ multiple defenses. The club’s leading tackler in 1987, he was credited with 66 tackles and 28 assists during the campaign. Michael’s statistics also included 2 passes …

The Green Bay Packers recently signed tight end Donald Lee to a contract extension. After seeing him play this year, I have to say it was a great move.
The Packers had entered the season appearing to be thin at that position; especially after David Martin signed with the Miami …

Of all the head coaching candidates this coming off season, Marty Schottenheimer will likely be the most sought after.
Schottenheimer has never won a Super Bowl. In fact, he hasn’t had a great post season record; which is why he was fired by the San Diego Chargers. But, he’s …

In the bout dubbed The Challenge, a bout between two counter-punchers in their mid thirties, one fought his age and the other lived to his name. It was Marquez’s first fight as a lightweight and he was a little shaky at the get-go. Being in the lightweight division for …

The Denver Nuggets of the NBA in my own estimation is probably the most talented team out there. I know some of you might argue and make a case for the Boston Celtics but i have to stick with the Nuggets in this category.
What they have is a team …

Tony Battie of the Orlando Magic who is currently off the shelves for the season with a torn rotator calf injury would have helped the Magic further this season if he was healthy. Battie is a very good on the ball defender for the Center spot or the Power …

Brother Ray is the leader and the mouthpiece of ‘Team 3D’ a tag team consisting of Brother Ray and his on-screen brother, Brother Devon. Together they form Team 3D, a team that have one of the most decorated legacies in professional wrestling history, despite being active on the circuit …

Kevin Durant is one of the best players to come out of college in recent history. I followed this guys career throughout his freshmen year last season playing for the University of Texas and all i can say is that he will be the next dominant scorer in the …

We like to travel and whenever we travel we like to be able to get in a sporting event from the city that we are visiting. We were in Phoenix and got tickets to the Arizonia Diamondback game at Chase Stadium.
This was a stadium that I …

While I don’t like the Pittsburgh Steelers (it comes with being a Ravens fan) I did respect them as worthy adversaries. They had a formidable offense and a defense that rivaled even our great one. As such, I always knew that a game against them would be …

Last year, the Arizona Cardinals surprised the league by winning the NFC Conference and advancing to the Super Bowl. They even came close to beating the Steelers to win it all.
Heading into this season, they obviously are going to be optimistic. But, they have several things working against them; …

At one point, I thought Packers running back Vernand Morency could turn into a starter and a steal for the team. Now, I think he’ll be lucky if he’s still around next season.
Morency possesses decent speed and showed some flashes of greatness as a back up to Ahman Green …

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 …

Erik Piatkowski started his career in a high note with the Los Angeles Clippers where he was a valuable player off the bench and even started some of the games mainly to the fact that he is a six feet and ten inch player who can stretch the defense …

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 …

I have to give the New York Giants credit; first they upset the New England Patriots in the Super Bowl and then they managed to keep the man who is most likely responsible for that win.
I had never even heard the name Steve Spagnuolo before the NFL post season …

I mentioned at one point that I was surprised when Dick Jauron kept his job following yet another 7-9 season with the Buffalo Bills. But, I wasn’t as surprised by that as I was when Marvin Lewis kept his job with the Cincinnati Bengals.
Going into this season, I could …

When the Atlanta Falcons announced they had hired Mike Smith as their head coach, I was actually a bit surprised.
Normally, owner Arthur Blank looks to make a big splash by hiring someone he expects to turn the team around overnight. Smith isn’t going to be that guy.
I do …

Growing up as a South African soccer lover and follower, as is the local trend, most supporters have a tendency to adopt a local team (of course) as well as one overseas team, usually from the Barclays Premiership as this is the one league that has been the most …

Ike Diogu is the former Arizona State University foward. He’s only been in the leage for two years, but already he’s made it his permanent home. The way he explodes when he plays, it’s a lock that he’s not going back to the minors, so the speak. The six …

England had not made a great start to their World Cup campaign in South Africa, having drawn with the U.S.A they were under huge pressure to get a result. From a fans point of view this was usual England for me, promising lots and based on the first game …

I consider Theo Ratliff in his prime as one of the best shot blockers out there in the league second only though to Dikembe Mutombo in the modern era. Although he has aged now and is even having trouble staying in the floor due to various injuries, Ratliff can …

I am literally shaking after watching the NASCAR race today, not out of excitement or happiness, but out of anger. I have been a NASCAR fan for years now, but I am very close to turning off my television and taking my money elsewhere. I am so tired of …

Eddie House of the Boston Celtics is one of the most gifted quick shooters in the league today. I remember him when he was still playing for the Arizona Wildcats in his collegiate career and he scored like over 50 points in one game. I though he was gonna …

I am in the market for a Nike Golf Bag and honestly, I was very disappointed looking at what the company had to offer. I need a bag with ample storage, but mainly with a pocket that can hold shoes.
I found it with the new Nike Tech Elite …

Kurt Thomas of the Seattle Supersonics is one of the classiest guys you will ever see in the NBA. He is one of the NBA’s version of a gentleman. The Sonics acquired him after stints with the Miami Heat, New York Knicks and the Phoenix Suns. The Suns decided …
