Many people are familiar with the success that Drew Brees has had over the past couple of seasons. Something people may not know is at the end of the 2006 season, Brees suffered a career threatening injury. On Dec. 31st, 2005, in a game against the Denver Broncos, Brees attempted to recover a fumble and a defensive lineman landed on his shoulder, tearing his labrum. Brees went to Dr. James Andrews for the surgery of lifetime. Andrews had to use 12 dissolvable staples, which is the most he has ever used during surgery. The San Diego Chargers decided to move…
CrossFit is one of the newest crazes in fitness. It’s grueling, relentless and one-size-fits-all to a degree. Group classes are expensive, and injuries are flaunted. So what makes it so popular? As with most fitness programs, there are benefits and drawbacks to CrossFit. Here you will find the good, the bad and the questionable of the program. What It Is CrossFit is hard to pinpoint because it borrows from so many different disciplines. The March 2004 CrossFit Journal describes the program succinctly: “CrossFit is a strength and conditioning system built on constantly varied, if not randomized, functional movements executed at…
As we approach the quarter mark of the MLB season, several teams continue to leave us perplexed by their poor play. Some teams are trying to emerge into real playoff contenders in a division we thought other teams would absolutely win. The .500 baseball that the Boston Red Sox are playing is going to lead to a drunken summer and heavy anticipation for the New England Patriots‘ kickoff. The San Diego Padres are starting to come back to Earth after getting swept by their division rivals, the Los Angeles Dodgers at home. They need to channel the energy of Ron…
The Orlando Magic and Boston Celtics face off in the Eastern Conference Finals. Though they both are playing quite well, this is a piece about rematches. Orlando beat Boston last year in the Conference Semis on their way to the NBA Finals. If all goes as planned, the Magic will play a “rematched” NBA Finals with the Lakers, when all is said and done. “But the Celtics are playing so well,” you say. The Celtics are playing well, but they don’t have an ace-in-the-hole. “But the Magic got blown away in last year’s finals with a better team,” you say.…
Last week we talked about why you should mill your own grains, and I promised a few grain mill reviews. Since then I’ve taken an informal poll as to why people buy bread products rather than making their own. I got two recurring answers. First, people don’t have time at home to let bread rise twice and babysit the oven. As a mama with three little ones and one on the way, I totally understand this. Second, people are intimidated by the yeast and process involved in making breads. Well, let there be no more excuses! Today not only do…
An al-Qaida militant has been detained by Iraqi police, suspected of planning an attack on the World Cup. The event, which is a month-long tournament to determine the best soccer team in the world, will take place next month in South Africa. Abdullah Azam Saleh al-Qahtani is a former officer in the Saudi army, and is a suspect in several terrorist attacks within Iraq, including two suicide bombings south of Baghdad. Al-Qahtani has reportedly been recruited by Ayman al-Zawahiri, who is second in command to Osama bin Laden. Al-Qahtani is said to be the security chief for his local branch…
The mercury is rising, and meteorologists predict that this summer will be one of the hottest on record. While it would be easy to break out the Haagen-Dazs, go with the sugar flow, we can do better. Much, much better. No sacrifice is needed. You can still have the sweet treats you crave, but there is a better way than just going to the freezer case of your local megamart. With a little planning and a few easy recipes, you’ll be living the good life your way. As Candace Flynn says in the S’Winter episode of Phineas and Ferb, “Crushed…
Brian Cushing was a big contributor to the Houston Texans enjoying their first winning season in franchise history. Cushing’s rookie season was remarkable. He had 133 tackles, was named 2nd Team All-Pro and won Defensive ROY (rookie of the year) honors (and retained the award in a re-vote). All of that changed when the league recently announced that Cushing failed a test last September, violating the league’s drug policy. Cushing will be suspended without pay for the first four games of the 2010 NFL season. It wasn’t shocking to some people in southern California to hear that Cushing had failed. For…
The two worst sports towns in America are Cleveland and Salt Lake City. They’ve earned this dubious honor for completely different reasons, but they both deserve it. You could argue that Atlanta with its fair-weather fans or Kansas City, which is pure haplessness, are worse, but they don’t hold a candle to Cleveland and Salt Lake. Nothing can be as bad as what I’m about to describe. On one hand, we have a city that seems to have the wrong expectations, the wrong ideals and the wrong perspective. On the other hand, we have a city where “dreams go to…
Earlier we reported that Abdullah Azam Saleh al-Qahtani was arrested in Iraq for a plot to commit terror at the World Cup. There was speculation, based on known a jihadist website, that the attack would be planned on England‘s match with the United States. New information reveals that the plan was hatched late last year, with al-Qahtani and some friends desiring to take revenge on the Western media for its depictions of the prophet Muhammad. The plan was to target the Dutch and Danish teams and, “if they couldn’t get to the teams, get to the fans” using car bombs…
