This is another stadium which holds so much history for me, as the football team that I so avidly support has made use of this very stadium as a home ground for as many years as I can remember.
While many memories will eternally live on in me concerning the …

Verona Hills is a beautiful and well maintained golf course located in the thumb of Michigan. Not something you would expect to find in the vast flat farmlands of the area, Verona Hills 18 hole championship course is indeed a pleasant novelty. It’s been there since 1924 and I often …

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, …

If you’ve watched professional football at all in the last decade, then you probably recognize the face of Tennessee Titans head coach, Jeff Fisher. Coach Fisher has been heading up this team long enough to compile a professional record of 105-93-0 and has the longest tenure current in the …

The Philadelphia 76ers suffered it’s worst season last year, not because of attendance decline or it’s record but because they traded away the player who was the face for that franchise for over 10 years. Allen Iverson whom they drafted as the first overall pick in the 1996 NBA …

Defending …

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 …

Going into the 2007 season, it looked like the Arizona Cardinals had finally turned a corner and were going to be a playoff team. Now that we’re half-way through the season, I think its obvious that they still are the same team they were last year; loaded with talent …

For me Richard Hamilton of the Detroit Pistons is the best mid range jumper in the game today. He has great accuracy on those jumpers which he launches in a variety of ways. He often comes off of screen and rolls to get the open shots. Or cuts to …

If you’ve been watching NBA games in the past decade or so, then you probably know Bill Walton’s voice. I know, it is kind of annoying after about three words. But apart from being that pretentious, rhetoric spraying sports accouncer, he is also a few more things. He is …

“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.

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 …

I was searching on ebay for a 3 wheel golf cart when this company came up.
The Linksman Golf X9 is the poor man’s version of Sun Mountain’s Micro Cart. The only reason I say this is both use a semi-trolley design but the linksman only has 3 wheels.
This is …

There is one thing I love more than to see naturally gifted players showing off their technical skill and flair, and that is underdogs coming to the fore and showing the world that they are no pushovers. With a player like Diego Forlan it was a case of a …

From Kuala Lumpur, the 2010 Malaysian Grand Prix was more exciting than most F1 races in my opinion. In fact, after watching some early action and seeing Lewis Hamilton get a warning, my thought was that they need to revisit the blocking rule and let the drivers race. …
