I’m a huge fan of Cleveland Browns football coach Romeo Crennel for a few reasons. The first and foremost being because he’s a Virginia boy, just like me, the secoond being because he’s the real deal.
A lot of people think that you can’t be a coach in the National …

When the topic of Spygate first came out in the media, I was interested. Like most people, I’ve grown bored with the New England Patriots and their winning ways so any scandal to bring them back down to Earth was a welcome one.
But, it’s been months now and, quite …

Out of all the European players currently lending their services and talents to the National Basketball Association, Peja Stojakovic was probably the first and still one of the most famous. Of corse he wasn’t the first European player, but he was definitely one of the first legitimate super stars …

Smith is an explosive receiver who will burn defensive backs that give him too much room to operate. He reached the end zone 22 times in the years from 97-99, and he also gained 1,000 yards for the third straight time in 1999. Smith also made it three consecutive …

I was asking the salesman at my local golf shop for game improving irons and he led me towards the Callaway X18 Iron Set.
This is an older set of Callaway irons. After this, they have created the X20 and X22’s. The X18 was their revolutionary model which was a …

When the Green Bay Packers promoted Joe Philbin to offensive coordinator this past off season, I questioned the move. Even though Philbin has an excellent NFL resume, I really felt that, considering the team’s offensive struggles last year, they needed an experienced coordinator to help get things running smoothly.
So …

My Dad and I used to go to St Andrews every other Saturday afternoon to watch our favorite football team Birmingham City play. My dad and I have supported Birmingham City for many years now from when it was standing only and in a very decrepit state, to …

Two years ago, the Chicago Bears were the team to beat in the NFC and were good enough to win a Super Bowl (though they ended up losing it).
This year, I really can’t see this team being anything more than a bottom feeder in the NFL.
I don’t even know …

There is a famous Dennis Green quote “They are Who We Thought They Were,” said while he was the head coach of the Arizona Cardinals.

Having grown up in Virginia and Maryland I supported the Redskins. At first, it was only because they were the home team and I really didn’t have an interest in football. As I got older, I got more into the sport and supported the team more diligently. …

There are few players who make the jump straight from high school to the NBA and have a career worth mentioning. Though there are a few that everyone knows to be super stars, the majority just fade into oblivion and are forgotten before their contracts expire. This isn’t the …

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 …

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 …

Fresh out of high school eleven years ago, power forward/center, Jermaine O’Neal, was thrown right into action for the Indiana Pacers.

Snowboarders should beware! Burton’s new 2007 Snowboard is fabulous! My brother-in-law is all about snowboarding in the Poconos each winter season. His other snowboard needed replacing, and so I went with him to investigate Burton’s new 2007 edition Snowboard. In comparison to far more costly …

I read today that the Jacksonville Jaguars hired former Bills’ head coach Gregg Williams as their defensive coordinator. I couldn’t think of a better movie.
Williams is a true motivator. His defenses will do anything for him and that commitment should help Jacksonville get over the final hurdle toward winning …

My husband is always worried about every ones safety. He is worried that with the world the way it is today, that something will happen to me or the kids. To give him peace of mind, I decided to enroll, with the kids, in a karate class. We …

The Toronto Raptors are lucky to have found and signed Carlos Delfino away from the Detroit Pistons. I really like this player. He is very tough, strong and quick and above all i just can’t imagine his persona to be the type that would shy away from a challenge. …

With everything the Atlanta Falcons have been through these past two seasons, it is no wonder they went out and got a guy like Joe Horn. With Michael Vick, their supposed franchise quarterback in jail, the Falcons had to make due with what was available. The ownership for the …

As an avid Cardinals fan that is excited about the upcoming 2012 season, I would first like to look back at the previous season. It had so many ups and downs and ultimately ended in grand fashion. In mid-August it looked like they would be competing for third place …

Big names and Big games is what comes to mind if people mention the Phoenix Suns to me. With a fearsome trio of Steve Nash, Shawn Marion and Amare Stoudemire the suns have the most dynamic team in the league. And the scary part is the fact that you …

I attended the draw for the Confederations cup to be held as a dress rehearsal for the 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa, and I generally felt as if they were making something really big out of something which is not all that big. The draw itself was …

While the Seattle Seahawks enter the NFC playoffs as the 3rd seed, I have to think they are entering as one of the weaker teams in the post season.
The Seahawks were able to dominate their division but there aren�t many teams in their division with more than a few …

One of the neat sports to watch during the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympic games is ski jumping. There’s just something about watching these competitors sliding down the hill, going high into the air, and then making a clean landing hundreds of feet later. I’m not a skier, …

This is what i call an embarrassment on the basketball court. New York Knicks coach Isiah Thomas just fired Larry Brown, the pure basketball genius who turns everyone into a winner, two years ago to take over as head coach. Since then, all Thomas has done is lost seventy …

Salim Stoudemire of the Atlanta Hawks is a very talented player with a great upside. If only he could get some minutes. With the collection of point guards that the Hawks have and the fact that they are way too more experienced than Salim is, he will probably see …

When the Miami Heat won the NBA championship just two short seasons ago, they had a huge roster that boasted some legitimate talent. Out of all the recognizable names on the squad were a few that just wanted to make a name for themselves. One of these great young …

It�s now week 11 of the NFL season and the Carolina Panthers are trying to decide who to start at quarterback. The fact they have to think about it really makes me doubt David Carr will be in the league much longer.
When he was quarterbacking for the Houston Texans, …

The 2005 FA Cup Final at Cardiffs Millennium Stadium. Fans thought the FA Cup was dying a slow death when in the previous year Manchester United had contested the final with Millwall, but this year Manchester United would face Arsenal, in the attempt to retain the trophy for the …

There is a saying in football “Defense wins Championships.” I’m not sure if that’s true. But, in the case of the Denver Broncos, it certainly is helping them win games.
When the Broncos traded a 2nd round draft pick to the Packers for Javon Walker, he was supposed to help …

Drew Gooden who came out of the Kansas Jayhawks program in the NCAA has been a consistent player for the Cavaliers. He was an integral part of that run they made last year that eventually netted them the eastern conference champions.
Gooden seems unorthodox at times, he uses an array …

I’m not a huge fan of Wisconsin Secretary of State Doug La Follette. However, when his only election competition is a woman who’s only claim to fame is her alleged affairs with a few Green Bay Packers, he’s going to get my vote.
Sandy Sullivan has no chance of winning …
