When the Seattle Seahawks cut former NFL MVP Shaun Alexander, I thought some team would sign him right away.
Turns out, I shouldn’t have been surprised to see him remain unsigned.

After seeing the Packers playing Saturday, I came to two conclusions. They need to add veteran offensive linemen and the defense needs experience.
Judging from that performance, in which they only put up 3 points, I think it’ll be another long football season for them. However, they are young guys …

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 …

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 …

I can’t say I’m a huge fan of the Nordic Combined sport. I do watch it, every four years at the Olympics, but something about it doesn’t usually excite me. However, the ending alone of this grueling event, the Nordic Combined Individual Normal Hill - 10kh of …

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.
