Anthony Hopkins appears to be one of those actors who do not take just any role, he will not play anything shallow, uninteresting, insignificant. Or perhaps it is his talent that turns every role into a meaningful one? Anyway, I have never seen him under-perform, or play anything not …

When the Minnesota Vikings drafted running back Adrian Peterson last year, I yawned a bit. I figured, sure he’s a good running back but so what? Wow, was I wrong about that pick.
If he can stay healthy, I think the Vikings have found a running back who can break …

Of all the women who have entered the entertainment business, Cher has definitely made an impression that no one after her will be able to replicate or duplicate her music or style.

When Dennis Irwin signed for Manchester United from Oldham Athletic, it was so under the radar in away that once he established himself in the United side, questions were asked where he was signed from. As transfer fees go these days he was a steal, almost pennies.
He had impressed …

Her paintings catch the …

Aj Styles is the current TNA wrestling champion and I must say that I am finally a fan of his. When TNA didn’t go through this recent big change, Aj Styles was boring and just your average entertainer and high flyer wrestler, nothing really intriguing or exciting about him. …

Even though Gerard (pronounced Jared) Butler has been around for some time, and I actually watched a majority of his movies unbeknownst to me, he just showed up on my radar when I watched the movie “300″ for the first time.
At first I didn’t want to watch the movie …

People may know Charlie Hunnam from the popular show, “Sons of Anarchy” or “SOA” as fans affectionately refer to it; I hate to admit that I’m guilty of the same reason for knowing who Charlie Hunnam is.

I’m usually a person who believes in giving NFL coaches a chance before trashing them. But, I really can’t see what the Denver Broncos saw in coach Josh McDaniels when they hired him last year.
First, he has done nothing to turn around the team’s fortunes. They went through the …

I have always loved John Wayne. I don’t love all of his movies, but I love his passion and the conviction with which he lived his life. He wasn’t a perfect man, but he was definitely tall in the saddle. He was also a very patriotic …

I see the Cleveland Browns are getting closer to bringing Mike Holmgren in to run the football operations of the franchise. I think this is a great move.
Holmgren won’t coach, which is a good thing because Super Bowl re-treads rarely live up to expectations. But, like Bill Parcells in …

I was glad to hear former New York Jets Head Coach Eric Mangini is getting another chance with the Cleveland Browns.
Mangini didn’t make the playoffs this year but the Jets decision to fire him really made no sense in my opinion. In three seasons with New York, Mangini posted …

Today would have been Elvis Presley’s 75th birthday and I realized I’d never written my review of the king of rock and roll, or maybe it’s the king of hearts. I grew up watching Elvis and I adored him. I loved his movies, his songs, and the …

For the first time in years, veteran driver Ken Schraeder doesn’t have a ride in 2009. This is a man who lives to race. He’s one of those people who just can’t get enough of the racing world. If he could, he’d race every night of …

John Stamos is somebody who I think got lucky because I honestly do not see any talent in this guy. On the show Full house he played Uncle Jesse and he did such a horrible job at it. The way this guy looked really amused me because he looked …

When the Chicago Bears hired Lovie Smith as their coach a few years ago, he came in promising he would beat the Green Bay Packers. And, for the most part, he has.
But, unfortunately for Bears fans, that’s about as far as his success has gone in Chicago.
OK, sure, he …

I’m sure, given his history with coach Mike McCarthy, …

Although many think differently, I happen to like Nancy Grace of Headline News. She does have an annoying voice, and yes, she can be repetitive (even sometimes rude to the reporters on her show), but I find her covered headlines to be interesting because they are real life stories. …

There is absolutely no doubt that Jack Nicholson is one of the best actors in Hollywood. His characters and then the reasons are not to be replicated or compared to anyone else. His trademark if he is great ability to bring sarcasm, humor, and a very unique brand …

When the Minnesota Vikings named Gus Frerotte their starting quarterback over Tarvaris Jackson, my first thought this week was “Frerotte? Seriously?”

Jay Cutler is a bodybuilder who is freaking awesome and there are so many things to be said about this particular bodybuilder and the first thing to say about him is that he is huge. I think Jay Cutler is too big though and on the verge of looking …

If Green Bay Packers general manager Ted Thompson knows one thing, it’s wide receivers. He’s brought in stars like Greg Jennings and James Jones to the teams’ roster over the years and, most recently, he brought in second round pick Jordy Nelson. If early indications are anything, he is …

Peter Schmeichel. Quite simply the best goalkeeper the world has ever seen. When he arrived from Denmark in the early nineties to sign for Manchester United, the response was Peter who?

Alanis Morrisette is a singer/songwriter who first got my attention in the early nineties.

For me …

Every since I saw “Grease 2″ as a kid, Michelle Pfeiffer has been on my list of favorite actresses. I grew up wanting to be Stephanie Zinone and being the leader of my own Pink Ladies.
Long before Michelle’s breakout as a leading lady, she tackled minor roles in television. …

I think both Josh Duhamel and Fergie make a really fine pair and they are both awesome and beautiful people. Josh has this serious and brooding look, while Fergie is all about fun and dandy. So, I think they both suit each other.
Josh is an actor and Fergie …

I like Jake Gyllenhaal because he’s one of those actors that are a required taste; you have to watch his movies to really appreciate his talent as an actor. I was actually surprised to see that even though he has been getting a lot of publicity, his resume was …

Who doesn’t love Tracy Morgan? This guy is the epitome of silly. What I really love about him is his sloppy Bronx accent. And I also like the fact that he has a really politically incorrect sense of humor. He is always running around …

One of the more famous actors just up to about one or two years ago was Bradley Cooper. At the time, it seemed like he was in virtually every movie no matter the genre, and movie goers would eat up everything he was in. While I don’t think that …
