Shelden ” the Landlord” Williams has had mixed reviews in his game in the league so fat. In his collegiate days, williams was called the Landlord due to the fact that he was a monster in the middle for the Duke Blue Devils. Being a former lottery pick …

Pat Garrity of the Orlando Magic is one of the best shooters in the game today. The only problem is that’s about the only thing he does on a basketball court. He contributes very little on other aspects of the game and his vigor to improve himself has slowly …

Jarvis Hayes of the Detroit Pistons started his young career with the Washington Wizards playing alongside the likes of Caron Butler, Antawn Jamison and Gilbert Arenas. He has made some strides in his career in the NBA but he still generally lacks the overall confidence that will make him …

The paca chunk is a soft plastic chunk designed for use as a trailer for bass jigs. It comes in a variety of colors and many of the specifically match the paca jig. When the paca chunk originally came out it redefined the possibilities of the plastic …

Once upon a time, Scott Pollard of the Boston Celtics was a primary contributor in the NBA for the Sacramento Kings. It wasn’t that long ago as well. He was an integral part of what the Kings where trying to do. He came off the bench and gave Vlade …

Every time i see Jamaal Tinsley play in the NBA he reminds me a lot of Mark Jackson who formerly played for Indiana as well. Both of them are great post up type of point guards who can dish out great passes as well. Tinsley, who is bigger than …

Joakim Noah came out of Florida as a two time collegiate champion. An impressive resume indeed to bring to the NBA. His calling card in florida has been his defense and his rebounding. The Bulls practically drafted him in anticipation of a slow decline in Ben Wallace’s game. At …

The Detriot Lions are somewhat of a sad commentary in sports. Nothing they ever do seems to work out. Now this has been blamed on everyone from head coaches, quarterbacks, front office management to a fan in the parking lot of the stadium. One thing all of Detriot’s failures …

After having a successful collegiate career, Steve Novak of the Houston Rockets has yet to translate that into a professional career success so far. He has been in the Houston Rockets bench for the season and has seen very little playing time at all.
I think some other team could …

After seeing the Packers playing Saturday, I came to two conclusions. They need to add veteran offensive linemen and the defense needs experience.
Judging from that performance, in which they only put up 3 points, I think it’ll be another long football season for them. However, they are young guys …

Yukon Seated Calf Machine is a piece of exercising equipment designed specifically to shape your calves. Calves are considered among the hardest muscles to exercise, so a machine like this specifically targeting them is a nice idea. However, the same can be considered a drawback: this piece of equipment …

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 …

Grant Hill of the Orlando Magic was a perenial all star before injury struck hard. Playing for the Pistons back then he was simply in a league on his own. Highly agile for a 6-8 forward/guard, he often entered the lane with his crossover moves, using his quickness and …

There where reports early in the preseason that a fist fight between Etan Thomas and Brendan Haywood erupted during a practice session when the two where going at it for the starting Center position. Unfortunately for Thomas he lost that job to Haywood when the doctors ordered him out …

The Chicago Bulls had a great team last year. They swept the defending champion Miami Heat in the first round of the playoffs and gave the Detroit Pistons, their bitter rivals, all they could handle in six games. Led by head coach Scott Skiles, the Bulls started off poorly …

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 …

Eddie Jones has always been a journeyman player. For thirteen years in this leage, Jones has been one of those borderline individuals who aren’t yet a super star, but are definitely not a wash-out. The six foot six guard out of Temple University has played for various teams including …

Highly Explosive point guard Chucky Atkins of the Memphis grizzlies has come a long way from those days early in his career where he was struggling for playing time and his minutes usually was coming off the bench. Atkins has great speed with or without the ball, he uses …

I bought the Ride EX snowboard bindings 2 years ago mainly because they were in an off season sale where the shop were selling off old stock from previous seasons this meant the bindings cost me £75 instead of £125.
The Ride bindings have metal base plates unlike most snowboard …

I’m really disappointed by the way NASCAR races have been going lately and I think a lot of that falls onto the new car they’ve been running. This new car is making things safer and supposedly better, but it’s also making things a lot more boring. I’m used to …

It was a warm day at the Nashville SuperSpeedway in Tennessee on the day before Easter when Carl Edwards led the field to the green flag. Unlike most Nationwide races, this one was largely devoid of big name Sprint Cup drivers, and that’s because it’s an off-weekend for …

I didn’t know a whole lot about the Cincinnati Bengals this year until I got a chance to watch them first hand last night against the Green Bay Packers in pre-season.
After seeing them, I have to say I think Marvin Lewis needs to be afraid of losing his job …

Jerry Stackhouse was an excellent scorer early in his career as a Detroit Piston and a Philadelphia 76er. He has an unbelievable athleticism and can rise up at any moment to go for the dunk. He also was gifted with the ability to shot the three point shot with …

Turkey’s Mehmet Okur who was drafted by the Detroit Pistons is a legitimate NBA Big guy. He is listed at seven feet tall and as typical in european basketball, he can shoot the ball from the deep. He is very versatile offensively, often receiving the ball from the top …

If you were to look around the National Basketball Association today at all the different teams and players, you would notice a trend. A lot of the best teams have a shorter player playing down in the paint. The Utah Jazz are up on this trend and have a …

Robert Horry is perhaps the most clutch shooter in the NBA. I sometimes think that maybe Horry saves his tank for crucial situations and rise up on these instances when the chance presents itself. He constantly sticks dagger into the hearts of opposing teams from the day he entered …

Greg Buckner i think started the whole three position player in the NBA. He is the first one i remember playing from the two guard position all the way to the power forward spot. This is a position being held today by younger players like Josh Boone of the …

The Philadelphia Eagles are looking to be back in championship form after their pre-season win over the Browns last night.
McNaab didn’t look like he missed Terrel Owens as he lead the team to their first score of the game (a field goal) and back up Jeff Garcia showed why …

Today I watched the qualifying for Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics Women’s Halfpipe competition, and it was very interesting.
One of the things that amazes me about this halfpipe competition is that the competitors are different from other athletes. They have a different preparation and the camaraderie and feel of …

When one talks of the world’s greatest players, certainly someone like Ricardo Isacsson Leite Santos comes to my mind, better known as Kaka.
During his rise to stardom though, when he was at the very top of his game with A.C Milan, I was quite surprised to learn that he …

He’s back. Based on his 2003 results, Edgerrin has put his knee problems behind him to reclaim superstar status. In fact, his 97 rushing yards per game was very comparable to the 102 of his first two NFL seasons in which he was an All-Pro. On November 16, James …

Back when high schoolers were still allowed to make the ultimate jump into the NBA, a young man named Kwame Brown was much hyped and poised to take over the reigns and the leagues newest super star. It was none other than Michael Jordan himself, his airness, who gave …

Ski instruction for the people by the people. That’s what the Epicski Academy Ski Camp is about. It was created by a meeting of the minds on the ski forum, epicski.com. Throughout the year, you get to chat with some of the top pros in the country about ski …

Shaun Livingston of the Los Angeles Clippers suffered the scariest injury that i have ever seen in the NBA. It was really sad what happened to him on a break away lay-up that really was his own doing. There was literally nobody around him as he stole the ball …

The Cowglen Golf Club situated on Barrhead Road in Glasgow was a very pleasant experience for me when I played there for the first time. I was fortunate enough to play with a club member who was able to guide me around the course. At first I thought the …

I first noticed and so do the rest of the nation Kareem Rush while he was still playing for the Los Angeles Lakers in the Shaq and Kobe era. He was a key reserve for that team off the bench as he relieves some pressure off of shaq with …

Fabricio Oberto of the San Antonio Spurs is a player that compliments All-Star Forward Tim Duncan. He does all the hard, dirty work in the middle and often defends bigger Centers so that Duncan can conserve his energy for the clutch where the team sorely needs his contributions.
What i …

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 …

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 …

Bushwhacker Butch was one half of the tag team known as the bushwhackers. They were generally Hillbillies who the fans absolutely adored, and back in the day when I didn’t know better, I was no exception. While they were very entertaining as a team, on his own, Butch was …

Bally Arm Slimmers made by Bally is available online at Amazon. I bought it for $15 because the price is lower in Amazon than anywhere else. It arrived after 15 days, after which I wore it twice a day for 1 hour.
My arms were not that big, but …

With golf being one of my pastime activities, as well as a perfect way for me to discuss business with potential clients and business partners, I like to come across as being in control of my game and on top of things in order to create a good impression …

Now that Donovan McNaab’s season is over, I think it’s time for him to consider retirement or, at very least, a change of location.
McNaab was a solid starter for the Eagles for several years. However, I credit that to his mobility and to a solid defense.
After two straight season-ending …

Rogers may soon be a free agent since the Lions don’t seem to want to keep him on the roster. But, I think if he can stay healthy, he’s going to have an outstanding career with some team. He has good size, has decent hands and is very fast, …

My team-by-team NFL review now has me in Pittsburgh taking a look at the Steelers. This is a team that is coming off a fantastic Super Bowl win last season and is looking to defend their title.
When the team decided to hire head coach Mike Tomlin, I thought it …

Quincy Douby of the Sacramento Kings is entering his second season and has shown some positive strides in the league so far. I admire the fact that he is a very hard worker on and off the court and as i heard even on the practice sessions he is …

It’s interesting to see NFL Guard Mike Wahle continuing his career with the same coach he started his career with, Mike Holmgren. However, if the Seahawks think they are getting the same dominating lineman that left the Green Bay Packers a couple of years ago, they are mistaken.
Wahle is …

The 2010 NASCAR Nationwide Sam’s Town 300 race just didn’t hold my interest today while it was on. The event was rain delayed for about 90 minutes, and it was a dreary day here as well, so maybe that had some subliminal effect on my reaction.
It could be …

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 …

From what I saw of the Bears during their first pre-season game, I think you’re going to see another season where their defense will win them the division but their offense will keep them from going far in the playoffs.
Starter Rex Grossman and the first team offense did absolutely …
