When the Packers started out, …

A few months ago, I took the time to look at the Chicago Bears and said I felt they weren’t as good as they looked on paper. I think, looking at them roughly half way through the season, I was right about that.
During the off season, the Bears took …

I first watched Shawn Michaels wrestle back in the early 90’s and I always knew that he would be a massive superstar. In wrestling it is easy to see some young stars will never be the face of the company, but with Shawn it was obvious that he would …

In professional wrestling, the words great and greatest get thrown around a lot. Some proformers achieve greatness in their careers, but few ever get considered to be the greatest of all time. Ric Flair, who began his career in the 70’s, and only retired in 2008, is definitely one …

In my last badminton doubles match, I played using a Yonex Armortec 30 racquet. When I bought this racquet, it was highly recommended by the salesman at Toby’s which he said far better than the Yonex Armortec 150.

Just before preseason, I took a look at the Minnesota Vikings and thought they were an overrated team; especially since they didn’t have an answer at the quarterback position. Then they signed Brett Favre and are now off to a 2-0 start.
You know what, they are better than I …

Not too long ago, I took a post-draft look at each of the NFL teams, including the Green Bay Packers and discussed what I liked and disliked about each. Now that the teams have each played two games, I have a better feel for what they have to offer …

I looked for a few years for a set of golf clubs that would be suitable for me. Although I still consider myself a beginner, I have been playing more as time goes on, and I had wanted a set that was of a quality that I could have …

For a beginner golfer like me, it is difficult to find a golf course that is not intimidating, while at the same time, has nice scenery to make the experience somewhat enjoyable. (I say somewhat enjoyable because I do not find golf particularly enjoyable at the best of times). …

Christiano Ronaldo, the most important player in Manchester United has been transferred to Real Madrid in this season 2009-2010. At the beginning of his career in Manchester United, I think he still tried to tune in with the speed and rhythm of United’s playing style. He joined Manchester United …

Good looking, complete tecniques, humble, and unmatched. These are the my first impressions when I saw Roger Federer, the most winning player of grandslam championships in the history of tennis.

Last year, the Atlanta Falcons made a coaching change and ended up winning their division. This year, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are doing the same thing in an effort to repeat their rival’s success.

Last season, the Chargers, who were arguably the most talented team in the league player wise, backed into the playoffs with an 8-8 record and needed to beat the Denver Broncos in the final week to do that much. However, once they did make the playoffs, they almost managed …

Unfortunately, they just …

Last year, I thought the St. Louis Rams were a team that was ready to make that next step and actually surprise people. I didn’t think they would be a playoff team. But, I also didn’t think they would end up near the bottom of the league once again.
Boy, …

A few years ago, the San Francisco 49ers fired their head coach Steve Mariucci after he went 1-1 in the playoffs. They decided, at that time, he would never get them to the Super Bowl and, because of that, it was time to make a change in the right …

Heading into this season, they obviously are going to be optimistic. But, they have several things working against them; …

The AFC West division isn’t the strongest division in the league and it’s reasonable to think just about every team in it has a shot at winning it. However, I think the Kansas City Chiefs are the likely exception to that.
I remember, way back when, the Chiefs were a …

Last season, I honestly believed the Tennessee Titans would become the second team in two years to go undefeated in the regular season. They just seemed to be unstoppable and that defense was downright scary.

I mentioned at one point that I was surprised when Dick Jauron kept his job following yet another 7-9 season with the Buffalo Bills. But, I wasn’t as surprised by that as I was when Marvin Lewis kept his job with the Cincinnati Bengals.
Going into this season, I could …

This is a team that really doesn’t do a whole lot that gains media attention normally. But, in an effort to catch up with the rest of the division, they did …

Now that training camps are starting, I’m taking a look at the NFL and looking at each team individually.
I’m currently looking at the AFC East and what could be an interesting division to watch this year. One of those teams is the New York Jets.
Last season, the Jets took …

Well, the New England Patriots finally lost a Super Bowl a couple seasons ago and, as a result, felt the so-called curse that happens to Super Bowl losers. The funny thing is the team is so well built, they almost beat it.
OK, show of hands here, when Tom Brady …
