Bruce Bowen of the San Antonio Spurs is considered by many among his NBA peers as a dirty defender. He is a pesky defensive specialists who plays with a lot of passion but sometimes i think maybe a bit too much. He defends a bit physically and at times …

Juwan Howard of the Dallas Mavericks came back to them after he was released by the Minnesota Timberwolves after they traded Kevin Garnett. I consider Howard as one of the model citizens in the NBA. He is some sort of like a spokesperson in the league and is one …

A few years ago, the San Francisco 49ers fired their head coach Steve Mariucci after he went 1-1 in the playoffs. They decided, at that time, he would never get them to the Super Bowl and, because of that, it was time to make a change in the right …

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 …

The Tippmann Alpha Black Paintball Marker is one of the more common guns I’ve come across playing paintball. I own one myself, and have been extremely pleased with its performance. It’s rugged. It won’t break. I’ve seen the gun bashed on rocks, trees, shrubs, …

I consider Leandro Barbosa as the fastest man in the NBA. He gets into transition faster than a car and most importantly he converts majority of his drives to the basket. He has the complete package to be a dominant scorer in the NBA as he has no surprisingly …

While we were in Arlington Texas, to catch an Oriole Game against the Texas Rangers we were walking along the promenade when we saw a notice that they had a baseball museum. We have a baseball museum in Baltimore and decided that we would check theirs out while …

I always thought the six foot seven inch New York Knick forward out of Drexel College, Malik Rose, was kinned to Jalen Rose, formerly of the Indiana Pacers and the fab-five for the Micigan Wolverines. I’m still not sure if I was right or not, but it wasn’t just …

Who doesn’t know the San Antonio Spurs head coach Gregg Popovice? He has the second longest tenure in the NBA and has won multiple championships since he was named the head coach in 1996. Pop’s, as the players like to call him, is getting a little over eager in …

Although I am an fan of one of the traditional big four teams of English football, lately I have found myself very attracted to catching games in which Tottenham Hotspurs is involved in, particularly those in the UEFA Champions League.
While I have always known Tottenham to be one of …

When I think about Seattle Seahawks coach Mike Holmgren, I think of a guy who is a great motivator and a decent play caller; though he isn’t very creative.
Holmgren has a knack for developing quarterbacks. That’s why he’s managed to take two teams to the Super Bowl and win …

When Javon Walker was a Green Bay Packer, I always felt he was a great speed guy with good hands but wasn’t much more than a number 2 wide out. And after he forced his way off the Packers and joined the Denver Broncos; giving him a chance to …

Atlanta Hawks forward Josh Childress who sports a dynamic hairdo has slowly made the transition from a magnificent collegiate career to a respectable career in the NBA. Childress’s game early in his NBA career was a bit too erratic and at best mediocre. But with the additions of other …

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 …

The NASCAR races at Infineon are typically fairly boring at least in my opinion. I have a hard time staying focused on the races that take place at the road courses because you don’t see a lot of racing going on. The drivers tend to play it safe and …

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 …

Flip Murray of the Detroit Pistons was originally drafted by the Milwaukee Bucks then traded to the Seattle Supersonics in that Gary Payton deal that also sent Ray Allen to the Supersonics. Murray is a good player to have as a back up point guard though generally he is …

Big Guido was one of the big men that Extreme Championship Wrestling bought in as their product lacked any solid Big Men capable of doing anything major, and mainly consisted of smaller more ‘hardcore’ wrestlers.
I only remember him as a minor member in the faction known as the Full …

DJ is a solid player and in …

Since the start of the NBA long, long ago, the point guard has always been to basketball what the quarterback is to football. They control the ball and set up the plays. Pass to whoevers open and try to score points and give their team the best chance to …

Lamar Odom loves Los Angeles, there’s no doubt about it. I don’t think he wants to call anywhere “home” unless it’s the Staples Center. Why do I think this? Because after playing for the less popular of the two LA teams, the Clippers, Odom then moved over and signed …

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 …

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. …

The Masterpiece as he calls himself, is an up and coming professional wrestler currently wrestling in World Wrestling Entertainment in it’’s Smackdown Brand. I watched the debut of Chris Masters, and at first glance, i wasn’’t too impressed. I saw him as merely a Lex Luger wannabe, but after …

“Get Strong—¦Get Ripped—¦Quick!” that’s what the on-box ad copy for the Iron Gym from Pro Fit purports it’s going to do for your body. But, does it live up to the claim? Let’s take a closer look.
Iron Gym isn’t so much a “gym” per se’ as it is a …

Even though I read a lot of columns relating to NFL football, I usually don’t take the writers 100 percent at their word because, after all, they are just writers; what do they really know?
Sports Illustrated columnist Michael Lombardi is an exception.
After working in the player personnel departments of …

Tyrus Thomas who was the former third overall pick in the NBA draft has had a slow accent to his career. Although looking back in his collegiate days, I never really thought that he would become a Superstar in this league. His game lacks a little bit of physical …

Who can forget the great Andre Agassi.He has seen it all success to failure,flamboyance to professionalism metamorphosis from a “I don’t care attitude to one of “I am a role model now”.His life has been a big roller coaster ride but in the end he has come out unscathed …

I’m a mega fan of basketball, all sports for that matter. But there’s something about the National Basketball Association that lures me in and keeps me on the edge of my seat. And my favorite type of players are those quiet storm types. You know, they types that don’t …

When the Packers opted not to re-sign Ahman Green, there was a lot of speculation about who their starting running back would be. In my opinion, the best guy they have at the position is one that probably shouldn’t have even made the team.
DeShawn Wynn was a 7th round …

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 …

Another player that Coach and General Manager of the New York Knicks signed to a stupid and bloated contract is forward Jared Jeffries. Mind you i think he is a very good player if he was given enough training and discipline by the Knicks organization. While playing for the …

When the Chargers started the 2007 season, it looked like they made a huge mistake firing Marty Schottenheimer last year. But, as the season progressed and the team got more comfortable with Norv Turner, I think they will once again be a dangerous team in the AFC playoffs. Granted, …

I took the opportunity to try these shoes when I saw a barely-used pair advertised cheaply on Ebay. They came highly recommended by fellow-runners for their light weight and superb grip. F-lites are marketed as a road shoe but other users said they had performed outstandingly well …

I’m not sure how many people really know who Matt Hasselbeck is. The Seattle Seahawks aren’t the most popular football team around, and stuck in the great north=west, it’s hard to tell if they’ll ever get exposure. Though Matt Hasselbeck just led the Seahawks to a super bown two …

This game can hardly be touted as the 2nd best bowl games of the year.
Michigan and USC is the BCS game I wanted to see, but Ohio State is #1 for sure and Florida isn’t my team by far and I don’t enjoy watching them this year.
2007 Rose Bowl …

The starting Center for the Dallas Mavericks, Erick Dampier has been a disappointment ever since he came into the Mavericks when he signed that monster contract. It is really unfair in the NBA for the teams sometimes when a situation like this happens. A player like Erick Dampier who …

Brazil is best known for skimpy thongs the the Carnivale. What they’re little known for is producing athletes for American sports, especially the National Basketball Association. This trend of no Brazilian athletes changed when Leandro Barbosa joined the Phoenix Suns four years go. Barbosa, the six foot three shooting …
