Vinnie Testaverde
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 …
Norv Turner
Whenever someone asks me about San Diego Chargers Head Coach Norv Turner, my response to them is ‘one heck of a coordinator, lousy coach.’
Turner is an innovative offensive coach who pretty much designed the offense the San Diego Chargers have had success with over the past few years. But, …
David Haye v John Ruiz
When David Haye entered the heavyweight division, many wondered if he really had the punching power and size to live with other heavyweights already around. People were forgetting though that this division had not really been alive and well for several years though, so Haye was making it his …

The 2009 racing season is underway with the Daytona 500. I have a few definite reactions to the big race.

Johan Petro
Until recently, I only knew of two players who came out of France. One of them is the super lucky super star for the San Antonio Spurs, Tony Parker. This France phenom is the Seattle SuperSonics seven footer playing center, Johan Petro. Petro has only been in the league …
Dwyane Wade
Coming out of the NBA draft four years ago were some impressive young players who really had the basketball world buzzing. Among these players was Syracuse star, Carmelo Anthony and high school prodigy, LeBron James. With these two tremendous talents grabbing up all the hype, it’s not wonder a …
Brandon Stokley
Most people remember Brandon Stokley from the Indianapolis Colts where he was a great third receiver for Peyton Manning’s crucial offense. Since signing a contract with the Denver Broncos, Stokley is proving that it is more than Peyton Manning that made him a good receiver. With Jake Plummer throwing …

JR Smith
The Denver Nuggets volatile guard JR Smith entered the league with a huge potential. And even I myself joined that bandwagon that proclaimed him as probably the next coming of the great one. He came to the New Orleans Hornets as a highly touted player out of high school. …

For years he dominated the league in the block shots category. Theo Ratliff has great anticipation in going after those shots and blockin them, his defense though does not stop there. Although he has been slowed with his age and some injuries he suffered over the years, Ratliff was …
Ben Wallace
This was the biggest heartache of my sports following history. The trade that sent Grant Hill to the Orlando Magic for then considered nothing but garbage Ben wallace and Chucky Atkins. At that time it seemed like a no brainer for the Magic to make the deal. But alas, …

Skiing
Skiing can be a very fun sport. If you have never went before then I suggest you take lesson’s. Most ski resorts offer a lift ticket, equipment rental and lesson package for beginners. These packages are around 63.00 per person which is not too bad. Some of the resorts …
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 …
Michael Redd
Michael Redd of the Milwaukee Bucks for me is one of the deadliest outside shooters in the league if not in the history. He has one of the prettiest form in that release of his that is fundamentally perfect for the shooting motion.
When he first came into the …
Benni McCarthy South African Soccer Player
The first time I witnessed Benni play was under very controversial circumstances in which the young seventeen-year-old, eyebrow-raising selection proved the then South African national team coach, Jomo Sono, to be right in picking the young lad. A true desire to make his mark saw him play with real …
Jay Cutler
If you are a fan of college football, then you probably know the names Vince Young, Matt Leinart and Reggie bush. One name that didn’t get much press coverage was Heisman candidate and university of Vanderbilt quarterback, Jay Cutler. Cutler was ultimately selected in the first round to the …
Detroit Pistons
The Detroit Pistons lost a valuable cog to its championship roster. Ben Wallace’s decision to move to Chicago broke the teams chemistry, But by all means this does not constitute a Broken team. With it’s other starters retained, the Pistons are still in contention for that annual O’Brien Cup. …
Nate Burleson
With Randy Moss on the roster, it wasn’t as if Minnesota needed another potentially explosive receiver, but they drafted one in Burleson.

Wrestler: BG James
BG James is easily one of the most charismatic wrestlers to compete in the last 10 years of his exposure in the big leagues in my opinion. A member of the famous Armstrong family, his wrestling ability resembles that of his famous father Bob Armstrong, and is shared with …
Tippmann C-3 Marker
When it comes to playing paintball, not all players are interested in playing indoors or even outdoors with tons of other people that they probably don’t know. I find it to be quite an advantage to be playing with people that you don’t know, because it gives you the …
Barcelona Football Club
Since I consider myself a purist when it comes to soccer, I am considerably impressed by the style of play employed by the likes of Barcelona FC as well as Arsenal FC.

This year is about change. Jim …

Vladimir Radmanovic
Newly acquired LA laker forward Vladimir Radmanovic from Serbia and Montenegro is quite a capable shooter from the outside. At six-feet ten inches tall, Radmanovic often plays from the perimeter and without the ball in his waiting for passes coming from kobe and the point guards. He also moves …

Tampa Bay Buccaneers
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers surprised me this year. They are an aging team and I thought the age would catch up to them. But, in an NFC South division that is in turmoil, they have managed to find their way to the top and make the playoffs again.
The defense …
Head Youtek Radical Lite Racquet
The Youtek series is a new brand of racquets that allows the racquets to conform to “you” and your style of playing (hence the name “you” “tek”). After buying this racquet and playing with it on numerous occasions over a year, I am delighted with the overall performance of …
Sacramento Kings
I really don’t know how this team came to it’s downfall. Four years removed from being serious title contenders in the West when they had magnificent starting line-up of Webber, Divac, Bibby, Stojakovic and Christie. Mike Bibby is still running the show with old holdovers in Brad Miller backing …
Takara Kabuto Single Speed Road Bike

Detroit Lions Preseason
There’s an old saying “No place to go but up.” That description pretty much describes the Detroit Lions, who enter their first training camp after going 0-16 last year.
The Lions have made some significant changes over the past couple of months ranging from a new coaching staff to efforts …
Chuck Hayes
Chuck Hayes who currently starts at the power forward position for the Houston Rockets is a rugged type of a player that bruises up his opponents. He is really good at roughing it up in the shaded lane which is a contrast to what starting Center Yao Ming does …
Re-examining the Green Bay Packers
Not too long ago, I took a post-draft look at each of the NFL teams, including the Green Bay Packers and discussed what I liked and disliked about each. Now that the teams have each played two games, I have a better feel for what they have to offer …
Steve Francis
My uncle attended the University of Maryland, so I kind of grew up a fan by force. I always pronounced their team name “Terror Pins” when I was a kid. Only later did I realize that it was the Maryland Terrapins. And to this day, I still have absolutely …
Ben Roethlisberger
Ben Roethlisberger was a winner from the start, literally. Coming out of Miami of Ohio, Big Ben was the savior the Pittsburgh Steelers were hoping for. He set a record for games won by a rookie quarterback, and in only his second year, took the Steelers to the Super …

Peyton Manning
For most quarterbacks, greatness comes in fits and spurts. With Peyton, success has taken the form of a huge landslide. In 2003, his superlatives fell into the “too numerous to mention” category. But to mention a few: co-mvp of the NFL; league leadership in passing yards; first to throw …
Casey Jacobson
Casey Jacobson of the Memphis Grizzlies has a very reliable three point shot. He is still in the league due to that asset of his. If not for that i highly doubt if he will be in the league for long. I have seen him ever since he was …
Al Thornton
The Florida State Seminoles had a fairly decent basketball team last year. Though playing in Florida, they will now always be second best to the back to back NCAA Division 1 Men’s Basketball National Champions, the Florida Gators. Though the Seminoles really can’t do much with being second best …
