Now that training camps are starting, I’m taking a look at the NFL and looking at each team individually.
I’m currently looking at the AFC East and what could be an interesting division to watch this year. One of those teams is the New York Jets.
Last season, the Jets took …

The Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympic games continued its biathlon events with the Women’s 12.5 Pursuit Mass Start. I prefer the mass starts over the individual, separated timed events. I want to see competition, fast and furious. It leads to more thrills and excitement, and that’s what …

Carlito is a brilliant talent in both the terms of Wrestling Ability and Microphone skills. Essentially he is a total package and is obviously destined for the main event in due time. He is the son of Carlos Colon, so what would you expect other than pure greatness in …

Andre Igoudala was a terrific pick for the Philadelphia 76ers. Coming out of college, he was not really regarded that high outside from the fact that he can fly. He was primarily known as a high flier rather than a all around offensive player.
Since then though, Igoudala has …

When it comes to offensive linemen, you can find few better than Mark Tauscher.
An anchor of the Packers offensive line for years, Tauscher is easily one of the better offensive tackles in the league. It�s a shame the team hasn�t won more recently, otherwise he might have been …

Often times when playing paintball, players realize that they’re on a budget and are going to have to buy cheaper paintballs to make up for their loss. Cheaper paintballs obviously aren’t going to have the same qualities of more expensive paintballs, but they’re still good enough to “get the …

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 …

Rudy Gay of the Memphis Grizzlies, an intriguing talent indeed. I must admit i don’t know this guy that much. I’ve seen the Grizzlies play a couple of times this year and i’m impressed with what i’m seeing from these guy.
He has great strength, size and speed for his …

I recently learned quarterback Aaron Brooks was in Green Bay trying out for the Packers. I haven�t decided if this is a good thing or a bad thing.
Brooks has the potential to be a good quarterback. He has a strong arm and the ability to move around in the …

New York Knicks Guard Quentin Richardson who came over from the Phoenix Suns last year after a succesfull season their. Was non-existent last year for the Knicks. He was somewhat lost in the rotation with the superb line-up of other guards the Knicks had (Marbury, Francis, Robinson, Rose) and …

While the tactical standard of African football is generally behind that of the Europeans, the technical ability and skill levels of the players, I think, is evidently superior.
I really got confirmation to this after I watched this year’s AFCON finals and I have to say that I really think …

I am now 32. For the last 12 years I have been muntering up and down golf courses the length and breadth of the land and frankly things didn’t really get much better.
Oh don’t get me wrong, on occasions I managed to play quite well (got …

I don’t think Brett Favre is ever going to retire. It will be 2042 and Brett will roll out in his wheel chair and throw a 75 yard touchdown pass to the rookie wide receiver in space boots. Brett Favre is the heart and soul of the Green Bay …

I am in the market for a new golf pull cart. I wanted something that was compact, folds easily, could be carried rather effortlessly, and works great.
I think I found it with the new 2010 Sun Mountain Micro Cart. This is the first push cart I have seen with …

As a die hard Oakland Raider fan, I remember the battle cries of nine years ago, ‘There’s a new kid in town” was the chant that welcomed coach Jon Gruden to the Oakland Raider ogranization. With his mean scowl and hot tempered ways, he was colorfully coined “Chucky” after …

The Packers have finished their 8th game of the season and have reached the mid-way point with a respectable 5-3 record. However, is it safe to say this team is living up to its expectations or are the Packers a team that simply is not what people thought they …

As a former sportswriter, I found myself covering tons of talented guys in high school who were poised to be the “next big thing” in the NBA. After seeing many of them fall flat on their face, I often times found it unfair that individals like myself, and the …

When the Seattle Seahawks cut former NFL MVP Shaun Alexander, I thought some team would sign him right away.
Turns out, I shouldn’t have been surprised to see him remain unsigned.
I like Shaun Alexander and, in the right situation, he was a dominating running back. However, despite his award, he …

If you watched college basketball six years ago, you probably remember the Kentucky Wildcat’s tall and extremly thin player, Tayshaun Prince. If you don’t, just imagine a tree branch that can dribble, shoot and defend the basketball. I’m not kidding, Tayshaun is six foot nine and weighs like one …

John Fox is the head coach of the professional football team, the Caroline Panthers. He’s another coach whom I root for constantly simply because, like me, he’s also from Virginia.
He’s a tremendously talented coach who led the Carolina Panthers to a Super Bowl just a few short years …

The New Orleans Saints are constantly scratching and clawing to keep their heads above water and stay on top of their game. With Drew Brees and Reggie Bush getting most of the face time, it’s lost on a lot of fans that they have a tremendous talent in wide …

Manu Ginobili from Argentina is probably the NBA’s best sixth man ever. He is a dynamic player who electrifies the arena once he gets inside a game. Playing for the San Antonio Spurs, he was one of the reasons the Spurs won it all last year.
Teaming up with …

The Green Bay Packers have a lot in common with the new wave of head coaches taking the league by storm. They’re young, inexperienced, yet everyone is willing to jump on their backs and let their fresh legs carry them to the promised land. This is true in Green …

What is up with the Braves this year? It seems like they can’t decide if they want to continue being a good team or if they want to end their record breaking 14 straight titles over the past 14 years this year. They also seem to …

I have always loved attending matches at the Loftus Stadium in Pretoria, especially football matches.
Situated in Pretoria, affectionately known as the “City of Champions”, this stadium holds so much history for me that the up and coming FIFA World Cupâ„¢ will be nothing but the “cherry on top”.
In …

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 …

The gun has a very nice look to it. It looks exactly like the real gun. I wish the magazine was metal but the plastic still looks …

Rex staked his claim to a job in ‘03, when he became the first known Bears rookie signal-caller to win his first two starts. In fact, only Jim McMahon (in 1982) ever had won even his initial start. In his second game, Grossman threw a record-setting pass, as his …

The 2010 Boston Celtics stand out as one of the most surprising teams at the end of the season. While they lost to the Los Angeles Lakers in the NBA Finals, no one could have predicted that they would make it that far. Kevin Garnett’s return to their play-off …

Patrick O’bryant is the Golden State Warriors version of a pet project. He is a good seven foot Center who certainly has an upside in this league. He has good hands, speed and power to be a good contributor someday but as of now, coach Don Nelson and the …

Brodie Croyle was a great starting quarterback for the University of Alabama. Croyle was great throughout the entire season and helped his team along almost all by himself. Brodie’s teammates all looked up to him sort of as the team leader. If your looking for someone that can …

When reviewing Michael Finley i put in the previous career numbers that his had playing for the Dallas Mavericks. So i rate him a respectable seven for those years where he was a terrific offensive force for that team and the league in general.
In his prime, i strongly regarded …

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. …

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. …

This is a very unique golf push cart. It is Linksman Golf’s X6 golf cart which is probably their most popular model.
The reason I say this is unique is the X6 is the easiest to collapse golf cart on the market. No doubt about this. The cart it self …
