Frankly, I’m not sure what the big deal is about Diane Sawyer. I’ve never liked her, and she bores me greatly. I read this week that it’s rumored she’s fighting with ex-co-anchor, Charles Gibson. He denies it, but who knows. It seems like I’ve heard …

Britney Spears has been around for a long time now, and she’s gone from Mouseketter to Downsketeer. I’m not really sure what to think of her. Her first marriage was a joke, some kind of teenage rebellion. She said something about just wanting to know …

It amazes me how young minds work. I realize we’re not in the Mickey Mouse days of the 50’s and 60’s anymore, but still, who the youth of America flocks to makes me shake my head.
Miley Cyrus is the daughter of country singer, Billy Ray Cyrus, the man …

Clearly, it’s undisputable that Barbara Walters is a pioneer for women in the news media. She was the first to be right up there with the big boys, doing hard news, so she deserves kudos for no doubt dealing with a lot of crap in her lifetime. …

I had a teacher back in eighth grade that was very strict, very smart, and at the same time, my very favorite teacher of all time. Mrs. Makin was very timely, and had everything on a schedule, but then when she didn’t think that we were ready for something, …

I think that Urban Meyer is one of the best coaches in the game of College Football today. At the University of Florida, he has made the team into regular National Championship Contenders as he was won two national championships in his short tenure over there and his team, …

I think that Pete Carroll, the coach of the USC Trojans, is one of the best college football coaches in the game today. I think that the results speak for themselves as he has won two national championships, and has won the Pac 10 for seven straight years and …

I see the Buffalo Bills have fired coach Dick Jauron with 7 games remaining in the season.
The firing isn’t really much of a surprise, though the timing is (I wonder if they wanted to get a head start on finding his replacement and maybe bring in a big name …

I see the Cleveland Browns are likely going to start Brady Quinn at quarterback again starting this weekend. Seriously? What, they couldn’t find a veteran player or something to come in instead?
Quinn was never worth the high draft pick they spent on him. At most, he’s a developmental guy …

When the Tampa Bay Buccaneers started their rookie quarterback Josh Freeman this past weekend, a lot of people thought it meant the team would continue to lose as their new starter went through some growing pains.
Turns out they should have started him sooner.
Granted, the win came against the Packers, …

I had to laugh today when I read Oakland Raiders wide receiver Javon Walker is looking to be released from the team because he feels he isn’t getting enough playing time.
Honestly, when is he going to realize he isn’t that great of a receiver?
Walker was overrated when he was …

Well, I will admit, Terrell Owens proved me wrong. I figured, by the halfway point in the season, the receiver would find a way to complain his way out of Buffalo but, 8 games after signing as a free agent, he has remained relatively quiet; at least compared to …

Manny Pacquiao, dubbed today as the pound-for-pound king in boxing, gives every Filipino reason to be proud and hopeful. He came from humble beginnings in General Santos City and got into boxing just to have a means of living to raise his family. He got more than what he …

The first time I heard about the singer Tessane Chin was about a year or so before she first released her hit reggae-rock single “Hideaway” in Jamaica. My friend had seen her perform at a cafe here in Jamaica one day when other rock bands were also performing and …

Last year, the Dallas Cowboys sent a whole mess of draft picks to the Detroit Lions for receiver Roy Williams.
I never thought I would ever say this about Detroit, but they got the better end of that deal.
I’m not sure what Dallas was thinking. This is the same franchise …

The Philadelphia Eagles are saying running back Brian Westbrook should be able to play against the Dallas Cowboys this weekend. This is good news for the Eagles because they need him. But, I think the team really needs to start looking for a long term replacement.
Westbrook is easily one …

I see the St. Louis Rams are going to stick with Marc Bulger as their starting quarterback. Was there really any reason to consider otherwise?
Look, I know Bulger hasn’t been having a great season and has been showing signs of decline for a while. But, name one other quarterback …

The Packers seem to be ready to start Mark Tauscher at right tackle beginning this week. It’ll be interesting to see if that happens and whether or not it will improve some of the pass protection on that offensive line.
A lot of people wanted to see Tauscher starting weeks …

Chad Ochocinco usually doesn’t offer a lot of insight into anything. But, he had a point about number one NFL receivers; they are the go-to guy because they have a chemistry with the quarterback.
That’s the case with surprise star Miles Austin; a receiver I never even heard of this …

I see the Denver Broncos signed Ty Law; or at least agreed to terms with him considering he still needs to pass a physical.
This is an interesting signing because I’m really not sure how much of an impact the veteran cornerback will have on the team.
I can’t say it’s …

There is a time when every NFL running back realizes it is time for them to retire. I think this might be the time for former Indianapolis Colts star Edgerrin James.
Apparently, the Seahawks have released James after signing him this year to add some depth to their backfield. This …

I have been following receiver Chris Chambers since he was playing for the Wisconsin Badgers. And, I’m glad to see he is getting a chance to continue his football career a bit longer after being signed by the Kansas City Chiefs a day after being cut by the San …

I’m watching the news regarding Oakland Raiders head coach Tom Cable with great interest. Simply because I knew I would see something like this eventually happen when they decided to hire him as the coach.
Look, it’s pretty bad when the owner hires you and doesn’t know a thing about …

The Buffalo Bills seem to be fighting back this season but have to be concerned about an injury to starting cornerback Terrence McGee.
McGee isn’t a name you are going to hear mentioned among the league’s top corners. But, that probably has more to do with where he plays than …

I see the Kansas City Chiefs have signed veteran defensive back Travis Daniels to add some depth to their secondary after a couple injuries there. It was a necessary move but not one that is going to turn any heads either.
For his part, Daniels has been an OK player. …

I see the Patriots lost starting defensive end Jarvis Green for at least a couple of weeks. This is a huge blow to a team that is having a great season so far.
Even though I think he might be a bit on the small side to be playing defensive …

I just finished reading an article about Browns running back Jamal Lewis and how he plans on retiring after this season. I don’t really think it’s that big of a surprise if you ask me.
Even though he is only 30 now, that’s the time when most running backs start …

Well, things aren’t totally perfect for the undefeated Indianapolis Colts. They announced today that they are losing their starting linebacker Tyjuan Hagler for the season due to an injury. That will be a big hit to that defense.
OK, maybe not that big of a hit. He’s technically a starter …

I was reading today about how Cleveland Browns owner Randy Lerner took the time to meet with some upset fans to talk about his team. That’s a great gesture considering the Browns are losing once again and the fan base is probably losing patience with him as an owner. …

I am a regular reader of National Football Post and one of the main reasons for that is regular columnist Andrew Brandt.
I am familiar with Brandt from his days with the Green Bay Packers as one of their money people but he has experience as an agent as well. …

I rarely criticize Green Bay Packers players because it is my favorite team and I would give anything to be in their shoes. But, Johnny Jolly is proving to be a player who just doesn’t get it sometimes.
Jolly, who is already facing potential prison time for drug charges, essentially …

When Owen Daniels entered the NFL draft after a somewhat impressive career at the University of Wisconsin, I had some doubts about whether or not he would be any good at the next level. He played tight end and was a reliable player in college. But, he was considered …

I was just reading about Vernon Gholston not too long ago and remember how big of a star he was coming out of college. As I kind of guessed would happen, he, at this point in his career, has not lived up to his NFL potential and is getting …

A couple years ago, the Green Bay Packers were hunting for their next head coach and ended up signing Mike McCarthy. I thought it was a fantastic move because I saw what he did as an offensive coordinator and thought he would be just the guy to help the …

Michael Jackson, one of the greatest talents on earth, has left behind a legacy of beautiful music and stunning dancing moves. He was indeed worthy of the title of King of Pop, which was unofficially bestowed upon him. It is undeniably a tragedy that this exceptional …

David Beckham is an English soccer player - but that sentence hardly does justice to the massive levels of support, hype and criticism that this player has received over the course of his playing career, whether it be in England, Italy or the U.S. Add to that his marriage …

The first time I was introduced to Stephenie Meyer’s work , it was through a movie preview of “Twilight” on television. I was in the other room when I overheard the dialogue in the preview. It intrigued me so much that I came out to see which …

I see that the Packers ended up signing Jake Allen off their practice squad this week to add some depth after suffering some injuries at wide receiver. They apparently only had three that were healthy.
I both like and hate this move.
On one hand, Allen deserves a shot. The whole …

I see the New York Jets are going to try to replace injured Leon Washington with a familiar face in Justin Miller.
Miller, a reserve cornerback, is obviously not Washington’s replacement at running back on offense (I believe they have a guy who can do that already). But, he does …

Wow, I was reading the sports news this morning and found myself laughing.
Here we have Albert Haynesworth, the defensive tackle for the Washington Redskins going on record and trashing the team. What a joke.
Not that I disagree with him, the Redskins are a terrible team this year with no …

I was reading just now that Kansas City Chiefs’ running back Larry Johnson has been told to stay home after he made homophobic slurs and trashed his coaching staff on Twitter.
I think this is why the Chiefs hold onto the guy. They can’t find any other team that would …

Anyone who knows anything about wrestling knows the name Eric Bischoff. But Eric Bischoff does not only work in the wrestling business. He is a very successful TV produced and writer as well.
Bischoff’s time working for World Championship Wrestling throughout the 90’s was a very exciting time for the …

In professional wrestling, many would argue that the biggest name of all time is Hulk Hogan. The fact will always remain that if you stopped one hundred people in the street and asked them to name a wrestler, there is little doubt that the most popular response would be …

Back in the 90’s I was a huge wrestling fan, but after WCW closed and the WWE became a little bit bland I stopped watching and I lost a lot of interest. Over the last few years I have started watching again and one particular wrestler has caught my …

With any standup comedian you are bound to see some of the same material repeated only in slightly different situations or with parts changed to suit the comedy style. However, if you have ever seen Bill Bailey then you will know that his style of comedy can only be …

Rowan Atkinson, or better known as Mr Bean to many, is etched on my mind as the man with the goldfish eyes, slack face and disgusting habits. He comes across as really cheap and rather annoying; however he has provided endless hours of inane entertainment. I …

Hey, I see the Packers re-signed their former starting running back Ahman Green. He’s not going to be the starter obviously. But, I think this was a great signing for the franchise.
Green is not the same player he was when he nearly broke the team record for career rushing …

I was a late comer to Mock the Week on BBC2, but after catching a few episodes in series five, I was instantly hooked on the wit and somewhat offensive tone of Frankie Boyle. He is a Scottish comedian in his late 30’s, and before Mock the Week, I …

Peter Kay is one of the brightest comedy stars to come out of the north of England in the last 20 years and following his early success I became a massive fan. He first hit the screens in his TV sketch show performing as several disfunctional characters going about …

I know that many people love ‘The Hoff’ but for me he is one of the most annoying people on the planet. I understand that he is something of a cult icon, such as Chuck Norris and other celebrities. But I simply cannot find anything to like about the …
