Great for intermediate level players that aren’t ready for the big time sticks like the Flexpoint Prestige, Ncode 6.1 tour, etc., It’s a tad above the tweener rackets since it has more emphasis on control rather than the in-between game the tweeners offer. Used by many touring pros such …

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 …

More known for his defensive skills, Shane Battier has been a terrific find for the Houston Rockets. He was acquired via a trade with the Memphis Grizzlies for Forward Stromile Swift. Battier is also a high percentage three point shooter whom both Yao Ming and Tracy McGrady love to …

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 …

When the Packers first drafted linebacker Nick Barnett, I thought he would prove to be too small to play the middle linebacker position and would eventually have to move outside. Happily, he has proven me wrong.
There are a lot of other linebackers who get more publicity than Barnett, but …

One of the best defensive point guards in the league today is Seattle Supersonics point Earl Watson. After a tumultuous stay with the Denver Nuggets, he was finally traded to the Supersonics for Reggie Evans and as produced for the team.
Although his offensive skills are in some manner a …

The Men’s 1500 meter Speed Skating event at the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics was full of excitement and some despair.
What I like about this event is the fast pace and that on any given day, a surprise can be had. That’s what happened in this event — surprise. …

When the Green Bay Packers drafted Korey Hall this past April, I didn’t think too much of the move. Hall had played linebacker in college and they said they were going to convert him to fullback; a position he never played before. I figured, at best, he was going …

It took me some time to write a view about this year�s version of the Green Bay Packers. This is mainly because, up until last week, I didn�t know what to think of them.
The Packers currently stand at 8-1 but, for some time, I had a hard time telling …

I actually learnt about Big Daddy from my Dad. He told me about him in the past and his memorable battles with Giant Haystacks, but it wasn’t until we got The Wrestling Channel over here that I had the chance to actually witness some of these battles.
He was one …

I like this guy Stephen Graham of the Indiana Pacers for the very little playing time that he has gotten so far. When he is in the game he makes a bit of a difference with his ability to get into the lane and be aggressive. What i …

Jimmie Johnson drives the number 48 car for Hendrick Motorsports in the NASCAR series. He’s won two championships in a row. Jeff Gordon, my favorite driver, owns the 48 car, along with Rick Hendrick. Chad Knaus is Jimmie Johnson’s crew chief. There is no doubt, …

I have been to Wolverhampton Races at Dunstall Park many times. It is an excellent day or night out. We love going to the races here at night especially when it is under the floodlights. We normally go with Steve parents as his dad is really …

After a slightly stuttering start to the season, Manchester United were now back at home to face West Ham United. Their opposition had had a torrid time under Zola last season and were this time looking to stay as far away from the relegation zone as possible.
For any team …

Andre Agassi one of tennis world’s best player is nearing the end of his career. From the days of those wild hairdos and the erratic behaviour he presented on and off the courts he has totally evolved into one of the class acts of the game. Now widely accepted …

First practice for NASCAR’s 2009 race at the Martinsville short track took place Friday morning on March 27th. Rain was threatening and would eventually rain out qualifying for that afternoon, but the Sprint Cup drivers were able to get in their entire morning practice.
My favorite, Jeff Gordon, ended …

The New Orleans Hornets signed Peja Stojakovic with that big contract to have a player that all star abilities and can specially shoot from the three point arc. If there was one player whom i can choose for my team to be represented into the three point competition. I’d …

I’m really happy to see that Stan Van Gundy got himself another coaching job after Pat Riley gave him the boot from on high three years ago. The Van Gundy family has two very talented, basketball minded coaches with Stan and older brother, Jeff. I was thinking that Stan …

Sam I am. 39 years old and still playing at a high level of basketball. I have to give credit to where credit is due. And certainly Cassel deserves that. At 39 and signed by the clippers 4 years ago to teach and foster their lottery pick and prodigy …

A couple years ago, you could look at Chicago Bears’ coach Lovie Smith and say his job was secure. After all, he took the team to a Super Bowl.
Today, heading into the NFL training camps, I look at his job as being a bit more on shaky ground. This …

Eurosport is a television channel broadcast via satellite and available across many European countries. It is broadcast in many European languages, such as English, German and Polish for example.
I often watch Eurosport as it offers coverage of sports not often seen elsewhere. I enjoy watching minority sports such …

My main complaints about ski goggles have always been getting the fit right so it is comfortable, as well as the whole lenses fogging up issue. I have gone through several goggles, and I finally think I found a good pair. I would sacrifice good looks for functionality when …

Since I had previously been to this stadium for one of the games of the 2010 FIFA World Cup games, I thought it would be quite interesting to see how the stadium is run after the professional manner in which it was in the duration of the World Championships.
I …

Devean George of the Dallas Mavericks is a player filled with experience in this league. He played a key part in the Los Angeles Lakers Dynasty that they had which won three championship in three years with players like Shaquille O’neal and Kobe Bryant. George played a role for …

While I like his leadership, I do think teams that are serious about signing former Miami Dolphins Linebacker Zach Thomas as a free agent are going to have to look at him very closely.
The former 5th round pick has been two 7 Pro Bowls. That’s great. But, he’s also …

One of those prep to pro stars. Andrew Bynum came into the laker organization with some expectations that he might be the next shaquille O’neal. He has the size, strength and the body to rival that of O’neal’s. He also has the passion and the drive to win at …

David West of the New Orleans Hornets started his career as a nobody. He came into the league with little to no credentials at all and he was given little playing time at first. But, with the continued growth of West both on and off the court. The Hornets …

With Michael Vick seeming to be the franchise quarterback for the Atlanta Falcomes, backup quarterback, Matt Schaub never got a chance to strut his stuff in front of the world. Now with Vick in jail and the Falcons in desperate need of a quarterback, they mistakenly sent off their …

Smush Parker of the Miami Heat who signed a contract with the team last summer after a successful stint with the Los Angeles Lakers. The Heat where hoping to get a combo guard with Parker much in the mold of Keyoon Dooling who previously played for the Heat as …

When I first looked at these paintballs, I figured that since they’re labeled “Great American” paintballs, that they’d either be really good, or a really good “American Value”. I was pretty much wrong on both. It was also really weird that the paintballs are scented, although they’re not nearly …

One thing that the Chicago Bulls have done right this season with their current slump is the signing of former number one overall pick in Joe Smith. I know that a lot of great expectations are meted out to a number one overall pick in any draft. And in …

He was a complete surprise for me this year. Being a National Basketball Association fantasy addict, i tried to get the best team after the draft this year out on the court each and every single night. With deep picks in the draft that are considered steals of the …

Two years ago, Pat Riley sat up high in his ivory tower and dictated to the peasants that coach Stan Van Gunday wasn’t worth of leading the Miami Heat and their impressive roster to an NBA title. So, upon lopping his head off, (firing him) Pat Riley climbed down …

Baseball is my passion. I especially love minor league baseball. I was in my element recently at a home game for the Yakima Bears. There’s something special about minor league baseball. It isn’t all dressed up and the players are trying to prove themselves so they really try as …

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 …

They will be a lottery team and will be at the bottom of the best division in the league. Looking at their line-up, I’m at a loss as to how they perform so bad with the team that they have. Starting Forward is Pau Gasol who a few years …

Let’s try to forget about recent disappoints of this past year. I’d like to remember the New Orleans Saints coach, Sean Payton for his commanding performance the year before. He brought a team back to glory and took them to the NFC championship. They were the pride of a …

Kim Clijsters announced her retirement from the World of Tennis on Sunday. Actually she planned to retire at the end of the year 2007. But now she changes her decision and announced her retirement before the French Open Tennis. I really missed to watch her tennis. …

In my experience, Arsenal is more of the extravagant team in the English Premier League with the aim of preserving the purists’ approach to football and their focus is more on how they play instead of just playing for results.
As an onlooker, this makes for some great entertainment for …

Malik Allen of the New Jersey Nets has been around the league for so long that i can’t even remember when he started or where he started out. It seems to me that he has played in every team in the league since he get signed year after year. …

About fourteen years ago, there was a team in NCAA mens division 1 basketball that was probably the best team never to win a national championship. I’m speaking of course of the Michigan Wolverines and their fab-five team which included Juwan Howard. Juwan was one of the super stars …

The balance Buddy Bike is an ideal first bike for kids rather than having stabilizers like most first bikes there are only the two wheels and there are no pedals on it. The idea is that the child pushes the bike along with their feet and after using a …

The National Basketball Association has some characters. Both on their teams and in their front offices. Ranging from outspoken attitudes to confusing names, the NBA is in no short supply of humor. This was evident to me when I heard the Milwaukee Bucks select Royal Ivey from the Texas …

Kevin Garnett’s highly considered as the best player in the NBA today. Certainly in Fantasy leagues his often drafted ahead of James and Wade. What in my opinion sets him apart from these players is his enthusiasm and passion when playing this game. You can see the burning desire …

Recently I purchased a Japanese Hardcore Wrestling DVD which featured some of the bloodiest and most gruesome matches I have ever seen. On this DVD which stood out however was a man by the name of Abdullah Kobayashi. I am a big fan of Abdullah The Butcher, and happen …

From Barber Motorsports Park in Birmingham, Alabama, the IndyCar series continued with all eyes on Will Power, who has won the first two races of the year. Charles Barkley waved the green flag to get things started, and it was a clean beginning as everyone maneuvered around Turn 1 …

The Women’s1500 meter event of Speed Skating competition during the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympic games was stellar and full of excitement. As an American, I’d like to say we were in the thick of the hunt, but this isn’t our event. Still, the thrill of the Olympics …

Chris Harris is one of my favorite up and coming singles wrestlers at this very moment in time. I first saw him in Total Nonstop Action Wrestling when the promotion was just formed as a member of America’s Most Wanted, a tag team with his friend Cowboy James Storm, …
