Zlatan Ibrahimovic Swedish Soccer Player

Formula 1 (TV/Motor-racing)
This must be one of the most boring racing classes that is broadcasted on TV these days. There is nothing, absolutely nothing exciting on it anymore. After they introduced a few rules too far. I can understand that the safety of the driver is important especially after what …

The Miami Dolphins
The Miami Dolphins today named Joey Harrington their starter over former starter Dante Culpepper. I agree with this decision.
