Every once in a great while, a fight not only lives up to the hype, but it exceeds it.  To some, the knockout is the most exciting finish, to others, the submission.  Occasionally, a fight can nearly end by both, yet both fighters literally will themselves to keep forging on.  These tests of will are what true champions are made of, and when both fighters can bring it for nearly three full rounds (or more) they get nominated for my best fights of the year. Fight of the year videos are a little too long for youtube, so you’ll just…

[topsy_retweet_big]NFL experts say the shelf life for a running back is six to eight years. If that is the case then we need to check out some of the products that these teams have to choose from. Currently teams seem to be breaking up with some of the members of their backfield like a middle school relationship. Every team in the NFL relies on the running game the same way we rely on our cell phones. As soon as our cell phones break down and stop working, we trade them in like NFL teams do to their backs. I have…

I was perusing some basketball news the other day and all at once I saw 4 injuries on my screen. These 4 guys aren’t the 4 most important people in the NBA–not by a long shot–but they are 4 injured dudes who are harbingers of bad news. Who am I talking about? Michael Redd, Allen Iverson, Shaq, and Paul Pierce. Pierce’s Celtics are flushing themselves down the toilet with every second they age. I almost forgot the Bucks were in the NBA. The Sixers are going to have to BEG their season-ticket holders to come back next year. Oh, and…

It’s no secret that I’m not exactly on the same side of the health fence as Big Pharma.  It shouldn’t come as any surprise, then, that I’m not a fan of your everyday supplements.  If your average one-a-day multivitamin is bad, what’s good? The Good My favorite raw foods blog is Kristen’s Raw. Kristen explains in great detail which supplements she uses and why. So you’re not a raw vegan, but not sure you’re getting everything you need?  I totally understand.  I’m a busy mom with three kids, so I know what it’s like to try to balance good nutrition…

I still get baffled and even frustrated by hinder calls in racquetball. If you are a racquetball player you understand what I mean. Hinders are the calls that truly separate the good players from the mediocre players. During my years of playing, I have experienced some of the most ridiculous hinder calls ever. I have even been in a racquetball match that turned into a shouting match over a lousy hinder call. I am not talking about tournament matches. I am talking about a friendly, competitive match at the local racquet club. Type of Match Tournaments have referees for each match. The referee is…

You may have heard of some of the superfoods out there, like lucuma, maca, goji, pomegranate, and acai.  Do you know anything about them?  Why are they considered “super”? Part of the “super” label comes from the price tag.  Seriously, have you priced some of these things?   However, the most compelling reason for their consumption is the high levels of antioxidants. Antioxidants scavenge for free radicals and neutralize them, which is a good thing.  This helps prevent cancer and other diseases. “Superfoods” 1. Lucuma is a fruit from South America.  It’s generally used powdered in the United States.  It’s sweet…

Don’t you just hate it when the NFL announces it’s going to start tinkering with playoff overtime rules and they call it “OT”? Then you’re trying to figure you out what rules there are for offensive tackles? They’re big dudes who take up space: What possible trouble could they get into, right? Anyways, we’ve got a pretty intense “Big 3” this week. In this first installment we MUST discuss the proposed changes to the overtime rules in playoff games. We have got to figure out why the Ravens want a piece of T.O., and certainly we can figure out how…

So I learned another lesson the past few weeks, and it was due to the fact that I love to help attempt to make this community better. I was contacted by an owner of a new Board, and he said he likes my blog and would like to advertise on my site, when he found out that was too steep for his budget , he asked if I would stop by www.universalbodybuildingclub.com. I did so and even gave him some free press, and later he offered me the position of Admin after a few weeks as Mod.  Then I started…

[topsy_retweet_big]For the past six years Major League Baseball has been plagued by the use of Performance Enhancing Drugs. The games biggest names have been accused, suspended, or admitted to using a PED. Another scandal is starting to surface in baseball over the drug Actovegin. This particular substance is a free protein extract obtained from filtered calf blood. Federal investigators met with Mets shortstop Jose Reyes last week to question him about his relationship with Dr. Anthony Galea. The Canadian doctor has recently been charged in relation to the unapproved drug Actovegin. Actovegin enhances absorption of glucose and oxygen which are…

What does fair have to do with the NBA? A good majority of the fans believe that the NBA is rigged for the four biggest markets. These are also the people who make outlandish statements; they make remarks like, “I would give it to Jennifer Aniston so hard she wouldn’t even know what day of the week it was!” Yeah right. I believe that NBA front office plays favorites to try and create the most dramatic and widely viewed playoff and finals format. Recently the Cleveland Cavilers made a trade that sent center Zydrunas Ilgauskas to the Washington Wizards. Big…
