European Soccer Roundup

Sorry I haven’t been writing much lately but I have been sidelined with bronchitis which is probably the worst thing to be sick with. However, I realized I haven’t said anything about soccer/football since the new season has started and just wanted to catch up a little bit around Europe. As the EPL heads into […]

Farewell Old Friend

As I am sitting here in Arizona watching the final game at Yankee Stadium (depressed that I am not there), I feel compelled to write about some of my memories of the cathedral of baseball. As a lifelong Yankee fan, I have probably been to over 500 games at Yankee Stadium since my father took […]

He’s Back!

It has been a tumultuous year for the best tennis player of all time but Monday, Roger Federer was able to wrap up his fifth consecutive US Open championship and 13th overall major title. He thoroughly manhandled Brit Andy Murray who was making his grand slam final debut after his convincing win over top ranked […]

Random Sports Rants

I haven’t written much about sports lately, except for the pointless Olympics that start tomorrow, because I’ve been away and really busy lately but I have some things that are driving me nuts in the world of sports and they need to be said. I almost hate to give it more coverage than it already […]

Who Cares About the Beijing Olympics?

I am a sports fanatic and I love the Olympics. I have been to every Summer Olympic city and most of the Winter Olympic cities. I could tell you the host cities for every single Summer and Winter games. I could list you most of the gold medalists for the major events since the modern […]

Olympic Gender Testing

This is absolutely brilliant. Apparently, in an effort to prevent cheating and doping, they are now testing not only for steroids and performance enhancing drugs at the Beijing Olympics but they have an entire lab devoted to testing if supposed female athletes that physically look like men are actually males. As a matter of fact, […]

Viva Espana

Spain stared their demons in the eye and conquered their competition today as they dominated play against Germany in their convincing 1-0 win in the final of Euro 2008. There was no doubt who was the best team, today, and the whole tournament. Spain shed their 44 year label of being chokers on the worlds […]

Wimbledon Draw Is Out

The tennis Gods are not smiling on Roger Federer in his quest for an unprecedented sixth straight Wimbledon Championship. His side of the draw is murderous while Rafael Nadal’s on the other side of the draw is a cake walk. Except for a possible semifinal matchup with two time finalist Andy Roddick. However, Roddick has […]

The US Open and Tiger

What else can be said about Tiger Woods. If you have been watching this week at the US Open, you have seen some incredible drama, moments and shots from the best player that ever lived. Really, it’s hard to summarize how great this guy is and how calm he stays under pressure and how he […]

Euro 2008

I’ve been meaning to write my preview and predictions for Euro 2008 for a week now but better late than never. First of all, this tournament is awesome in so many ways. It is second in my view only to the World Cup and only because it is missing the great South American players. This […]
