The spectators were so educated and the city demonstrated a very …

Orien Greene played for the Indiana Pacers last season in 2006-07. He was really the only player on the team that knew how to play man-to-man defense and play it well. His number was #0 as it was on the Boston Celtics. The Pacers did not play him very …

Former San Antonio Spurs guard, Avery Johnson isn’t much to watch play now a days. But in the past, he was as good as they come. I recently seen him shoot a jumper for giggles and I think he’s lost whatever it was that made him a good basketball …

Perhaps the player who hasn’t done anything for his NBA team for now but has the biggest potential of all is Gerald Green. The question from me is whether he will be able to live up to that potential of his. I think Green has an unbelievable scoring capabilities …

Now that he’s been fired by the Detroit Lions, former head coach and Lions offensive coordinator Mike Martz should be a hot commodity for teams looking to boost their offenses.

The head coach of the National Football Leagues sweetheart team, the Jacksonville Jaguars, Jack Del Rio is a man’s man so to speak. He doesn’t let the normal things of coaching in this league irritate him like so many others seem to do.
Jack Del Rio, whose real name …

When your football team becomes the first time in NFL history to finish its season with a 0-16 record (once thought impossible), there is really very little you can plan to build around. And, while I do think the Detroit Lions are doing some good things team wise, I …

The Chicago Bulls have struggled mightily this year to start the new season which confuses me greatly since they have a great line-up on the floor. I am really lost as to what happened to them this year so far. As an avid NBA fan and a great follower …

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 …

As a die hard NASCAR fan you’ll find me sitting in front of the television or in the stands for every NASCAR event including both the Sprint Cup races and the Nationwide races. Every so often there’s a race that makes me turn off the television and the June …

The Tippmann Alpha Black Paintball Marker is one of the more common guns I’ve come across playing paintball. I own one myself, and have been extremely pleased with its performance. It’s rugged. It won’t break. I’ve seen the gun bashed on rocks, trees, shrubs, …

A few years ago I thought the Houston Rockets were the best team in the west. I guess I’m not the basketball expert I thought because they never made it past the first round of the playoffs. In those years I was picking them to win, my favorite player …

It’s hard enough to play proffesional sports in the Big Apple, but playing quarterback in New York is something entirely different. Pennington has handled the job with aplomb, taking over the starting duties in 2002 and setting club records for completion percentage and Quarterback rating. Pennington is very capable …

If you watched college basketball six years ago, you probably remember the Kentucky Wildcat’s tall and extremly thin player, Tayshaun Prince. If you don’t, just imagine a tree branch that can dribble, shoot and defend the basketball. I’m not kidding, Tayshaun is six foot nine and weighs like one …

The Vikings stoked their defensive fire with Smoot in 2005, hoping that he’ll be able to fire up a secondary that ranked 29th against the pass in 2004. The standout from Mississippi State tallied three interceptions and 13 passes defensed in 2004. Smoot is a great player that definetly …

In my opinion, Korver owns one of the quickest shots in the league history. He gets off his attempts pretty quickly therefore making it really difficult for a defender to block or at least challenge the shot.
He is also one of the best three point shooters in the …

One half of the first ever two African American coaches to coach in the Super Bowl, Lovie Smith has had a very successful tenure with the Chicago Bears. Though he lost to his long time friend, Tony Dungy, Lovie Smith would never consider that particular game a defeat. It …

If there was ever an overrated player, Tom Brady fits the description.
As quarterback for the New England Patriots, Brady has won 3 Super Bowl Rings. But, let’s face the facts; could he have done that with any other team? I don’t think he could.
The reality is, Brady is a …

I am a big fan of baseball at any level.
For the last couple of years, I’ve subscribed to On Demand’s baseball coverage on cable. This service has let me watch baseball games when I’m sitting in front of my TV, but frankly it was expensive.
This year I subscribed to …

I bought the O’neill Reactor convertible wetsuit in a sale 2 years ago as my previous O’neill wetsuit was now around 4 years old and starting to fall apart.
This wetsuit usually costs around £80 but only cost me £48 compared to my previous O’neill wetsuit which I paid around …

Every time i enter ESPN.com to try and find latest news on my favorite NBA team i get disappointed. I hate the fact that they give you a sort of “teaser” to important up to date articles that they have. I know that paying for an INSIDER account is …

Scott Steiner. Big Poppa Pump, The Genetic Freak, The big Bad Booty Daddy or Freakzilla. Whatever you know him better as, Scott Steiner is one of the names in professional wrestling that I grew up watching with me being a professional wrestling fan from a very young age. The …

Over the past few years, the Detroit Lions have been a joke. Each year, they draft the next big star only to continue to be one of the worst teams in the league.
This year, I think they may surprise a few people.
The defense hasn’t improved much in terms of …

UFC 127 was a good card. In this review I’m only going to talk about the main event, B.J. Penn vs. Jon Fitch. As soon as the bell rang, Penn charged out strong, throwing a few punches, then to everyone’s surprise, shooting for a take down. Fitch initially fought …

I’m not a big fan of the track in New Hampshire, mainly because it tends to look fairly empty whenever they race there. NASCAR keeps saying that they need to expand to reach all the markets and all the areas where they have fans. That’s true, but I think …

Whenever people talk about quarterbacks, longevity is one of the things that is considered. And, in Vinnie Testaverde’s case, you aren’t going to find many quarterbacks that have lasted longer.
Testaverde is the first overall pick of the 1987 draft. He’s been in the league for 20 years; something that …

In my personal opinion, setting aside the element of bias that may creep in given the fact that I am a South African, the South African Cricket team affectionately known as the Proteas is the best the world of cricket has to offer. Sadly though, this is only limited …
