Formula 1 - The Australian Grand Prix race
One thing the beginning of Formula 1’s 2010 Australian Grand Prix race didn’t lack was excitement. There was a huge mess on the first corner that had Fernando Alonzo turned in the opposite direction and all kinds of other nonsense. These guys rarely start a race clean. …
Chad Pennington
It is unsure whether New York Jets quarterback, Chad Pennington, will return to action next year. His contract expires and you wonder if another team may want a veteran quarterback to bring their franchise back to winning ways. A lot of criticism about Chad’s not so strong arm have …
Mike Dunleavy
Mike Dunleavy of the Golden State Warriors who’s also the son of the coach of the Los Angeles Clippers defines in my opionion the combination of potential and versatility. At six-feet nine inches, Dunleavy can easily handle the ball and take it up the court. He can also drive …
Calvin Booth
Newly acquired Center for the Philadelphia 76ers is journeyman Calvin Booth whom they pried away from the Dallas Mavericks. I really don’t like his game that much. Or to say it in a more clearer phrase, he has no game. Booth benefits from the fact that he is a …
Tony Allen
Tony Allen came into the league as a highly touted player from the collegiate ranks. He was often reviewed as someone who has crazy athletic abilities. And he also proved in the collegiate ranks that he does in fact posses those said abilities. He dominated the slam dunk competitions …
Zinedine Yazid Zidane Retired France Soccer Super Star
Every generation, something very special comes along and in the world of football, a special player comes along in each generation. One special player to speak of in my time of watching and being active in the sport of football is one Zinedine Yazid Zidane, the French master and …
George Steinbrenner Field
George Steinbrenner Field on Tampa Bay is one of the nicest and biggest ballparks I’ve ever been too for a minor league game. I enjoyed the atmosphere of the people that worked there and the people at the game more than usual. The employees were very curtious, even with …
Marko Jaric
This guy is one lucky guy. Marko Jaric of the Minnesota Timberwolves who is currently dating Super Model Giselle Budchen and just signed a respectable 4 year $21 million deal with the team as well. Wow!! if that ain’t lucky then what is?
On the court though, i think he …
Boris Diaw
I only know a little bit of France. They had the hundred years war with England, they have good cheeses and wines, I think that’s where they make crepes, and they have two very good basketball players currently signed in America’s National Basketball Association. (two that I know of) …
Wrestler: Brother Devon
Brother Devon is one half of one of the most decorated tag-teams in professional wrestling history, Team 3D along with his long time friend, tag team partner and on-screen ‘Half Brother’ Brother Ray.
Devon is essentially the muscle of the team, and the one who inflicts most of the pain …
Drew Gooden
Cleveland Cavaliers Forward Drew Gooden who has recently just received a new US$23 million for three years deal with the Cavs has finally found a home with Cleveland. He has been on the trade rumors for the majority of his career after starting out with Memphis Grizzlies after he …
Cam Cameron
Sorry, Cam. I don’t know about anyone else, but I’ve never been so disappointed as watching the Miami Dolphins struggle to win a game this year. I really didn’t think they’d win even one. And personally, I was rooting for them to lose them all! But the guy I …
Joey Harrington
The Detriot Lions selected Joey “Heisman” Harrington out of Oregon U a few years ago with the promise of getting a franchise quarterback to replace the hype the team lost when Barry Sanders retired. Joey quickly proved he wasn’t worthy of the nickname everyone had given him. It turns …
NASCAR Nationwide Race-Chicagoland 2008
I was looking forward to the NASCAR Nationwide Series race at the Chicagoland Speedway. Not only do I like the track, but I was also excited to see the first race under the lights. During the off season the track installed lights and moved their race from the day …
Brian Scalabrine
Brian Scalabrine started his NBA career with the New Jersey Nets playing in that team that went to the NBA finals with Jason Kidd, K-mart, Kittles and RJ at the helm.
Scalabrine came off the bench and was a fighter. He often comes in to games knowing that his …
Arlen Harris
Between injuries, a transfer from the University of Virginia to Hofstra and some eligibility snafus, Arlen didn’t play too much college football. He did, however, geta big break by making it to a postseason all-star game, where he was the team MVP and impressed the Saint Louis Rams enough …
Sandy Sullivan
I’m not a huge fan of Wisconsin Secretary of State Doug La Follette. However, when his only election competition is a woman who’s only claim to fame is her alleged affairs with a few Green Bay Packers, he’s going to get my vote.
Sandy Sullivan has no chance of winning …
Damon Huard
After releasing starting quarterback Trent Green last year, the Kansas City Chiefs employed the services of a ten year veteran with Damon Huard. Though most have never heard of Huard, he was primed to take over the position and was poised to be the next big QB in Kansas …
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 …
Taylor Made Burner Driver
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 …
Tyson Chandler
Tyson Chandler in my opinion will be the next Marcus Camby. He has the size, the same body type and the same scoring and defense capabilities. Chandler has slowly made strides in becoming a better offensive player this year. And in the play of the Hornets it is quite …
James Jones
James Jones started his career in the NBA with the Indiana Pacers as some sort of a Reggie Miller clone. Since he entered the league with a deadly three point shot, they trained him with reggie and taught him every tricks that Miller use to do in the game. …
Cleveland Cavaliers
The Cleveland Cavaliers own one of the most valuable properties in the NBA in main man Lebron James. They were blessed when they won the 2003 NBA draft lottery as it gave them James who will eventually become an MVP in the league. Being the defending Eastern Conference champion, …
Manchester United v Millwall - 2004 FA Cup Final
2004 saw an FA Cup Final that seemed to make most people other than Manchester United and Millwall fans turn of. It wasn’t that the game promised to be boring, it was more the fact that Manchester United went into this game as huge favourites because they were seen …
Charlotte Bobcats
If there was a team on the rise in the East then i would have to say that it is the Charlotte Bobcats. Acquiring Jason Richardson on a draft day trade with the Golden State Warriors gave them that go to scorer who can create his own shots on …
Alonzon Mourning
Former all-star Alonzo Mourning of the Miami Heat who struggled after having a kidney transplant three years ago has been rewarded for his dedication and hard work for the Heat with his first ever championship ring. He was a vital cog for the heat last year when he contibuted …
John Beck
Any team drafting Brigham Young quarterback John Beck this season should do so with the realization he’ll have to sit on the bench for a couple of seasons before he’s ready to start a game. However, once he has time to develop, he should be a decent starter.
BYU runs …
Bill Belichick
It’s really hard to come up with the words to describe New England Patriots Coach Bill Belichick. On one hand, he’s a heck of a coach. He’s 3-1 in the Super Bowl, has turned the Patriots into an annual contender for the NFL title and, quite simply put, could …
2010 Los Angeles Lakers
Fresh off their win from the 2010 Finals, the Los Angeles Lakers are the early favorites to come of on top of the Western Conference. With their core roster intact and a few key additions, the Lakers are among the few contenders that can match up well with almost …
Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics - Women’s Downhill
The women’s downhill of the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics was full of excitement. I was actually surprised, though, how many very nasty falls and crashes that there were. It was frightening, in fact.
One of the Switzerland skiers had such a nasty fall. She slid down …
Wrestler - John Morrison
When it comes to promising young wrestlers, I think that John Morrison is amoung the top young talents in the business today. After watching more than a few of his matches, I have released that he has an excellent ability in the ring, most particularly when he is jumping …
Ricky Davis
Ricky Davis of the Miami Heat has often been maligned for being a selfish player in the league. I remember once about five years ago. I was watching a cleveland cavaliers game and Ricky Davis was with cleveland that year. With about 14 seconds left in the game it …
Donald Driver
Looking at the names of the top receivers in the league, I always notice Donald Driver’s name is ommitted. He has to be one of the most underrated receivers in the NFL.
Coming to the Packers as a late round draft choice, Driver worked his way up the depth chart …
Joey Harrington
When people think about NFL quarterback Joey Harrington, he’s usually lumped in the large class of first-round busts. But, I think he gets more criticism than he deserves.
Harrington is a proto-type passer who actually has decent accuracy and is able to be a game manager in the right situation …
Kansas City Chiefs Preseason
The AFC West division isn’t the strongest division in the league and it’s reasonable to think just about every team in it has a shot at winning it. However, I think the Kansas City Chiefs are the likely exception to that.
I remember, way back when, the Chiefs were a …
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 …
Juwan Howard
About fourteen years ago, there was a team in NCAA mens division 1 basketball that was probably the best team never to win a national championship. I’m speaking of course of the Michigan Wolverines and their fab-five team which included Juwan Howard. Juwan was one of the super stars …
Tracy McGrady
Tracy McGrady, or T-Mac, is the outstandingly talented guard who plays for the Houston Rockets. You can say this guy has basketball in his blood. His first cousin is the New Jersey Nets forward, Vince Carter, and the two were once teammates in Toronto with the Raptors. During McGrady’s …
Jermaine O’neal
Jermaine O’neal of the Indiana Pacers started his career as a bench warmer for the Portland TrailBlazers. Drafted straight out of high School, O’neal saw very limited playing time with the Blazers the first four years of his career. After he was dealt to the Pacers though, he was …
Kirk Snyder
Kirk Snyder of the Houston Rockets started his career with the Utah Jazz. He is primarily a defensive stopper for them but is getting very few playing time for the Rockets right now due to the fact that they do have an influx of players who play at that …
Wrestler: Ahmed Johnson
I remember Ahmed Johnson specifically for his short run in World Championship Wrestling in the year 2000 just after the original Harlem Heat had split up and he began teaming with Stevie Ray Huffman forming the new Harlem Heat while Booker T was on the run for a main …
Minnesota Vikings Preseason
Heading into the pre-season the talk out of Minnesota was how Brett Favre would come out of retirement again and would likely quarterback the Vikings next year. Favre decided to stay retired so it’s time to look at where Minnesota now stands with training camps now on the way. …
Adilux Taekwondo Shoes
The newest taekwondo shoes made by Adidas are the Adilux taekwondo shoes.
Pros:
They have no laces and are easy to put on quickly.
They are very light weight.
Awesome styling.
They protect your feet from the mats or floor when doing pivoting kicks.
Cons:
Workmanship and quality are at a low.
After 3 weeks the sole …
Greg Oden
Greg Oden who was drafted as the first overall pick in this year’s NBA draft instantly felt what its like to be in the bottom of your emotions in the NBA. After his selection by the Portland TrailBlazers, Oden suffered a season ending injury even before he got to …
Rashad McCants
Minnesota Timberwolves starter Rashad McCants is one of the more explosive guards there is in the league. He has a very quick first step that loses his defenders quickly and if not for his injury he would have been a crazy athlete in the mold of a Kobe Bryant. …
Lindsay Davenport
Lindsay Davenport is one of the greatest players in the game but is fast approaching the end of her 13-year long career.For all the greatness Davenport is one of those sportstars who has always had run-ins with bad-luck and injuries.If not for her injuries she could still have been …
Marvin Harrison
A few years ago, I couldn’t think of any receiver that would be a better fit for any team in the league than Marvin Harrison. Today though, I think he’s a guy who will soon be seeing his final games in the NFL.
Harrison has great hands, decent speed and, …
Clive Potter’s Sil Lum Tao DVD
Wing Chun is probably the most popular style of traditional Kung Fu in the world today. In great part, this is because Bruce Lee studied the art in his teenage years. While the association with Bruce Lee certainly helped expand the popularity of the art, if Wing Chun did …
Michael Phelps
The amazing feats of Michael Phelps in the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, were amazing. Not only did he win 8 gold medals but he won those eight with a ton of pressure on his shoulders. Every single race he had, everyone was looking at him waiting for him …
Richard Jefferson
The National Basketball Association has been ever-changing. From the early times of the league, the golden age, where most players were crafy with the ball and could pass through traffic and do some crazy finger roll looking stuff, to the midway period in the league that seen a little …
