Alex Ferguson Leaving Manchester United – Some of Us Are Happy
Posted on 9 May, 2013, by Ian Barnes in SoccerIt’s not part of tradition to speak ill of those leaving, retiring from the game of football, after achieving so much. But Alex Ferguson is leaving Manchester United as the beloved man the media tries to portray him as. There are quite a few fans, not just opposing managers, filled with smiles for about 24 hours, knowing that someone they couldn’t stand watching is departing the sidelines for good. More
Floyd Mayweather – Still Perfect, Almost Boring
Posted on 5 May, 2013, by Morgan in BoxingLike most Floyd Mayweather fights, this one was over before it began. Robert Guerrero talked well before the bout, but couldn’t even get close to the best boxer in the world, who won by a unanimous decision through all scorecards, retaining his WBC Welterweight belt, adding The Ring honor and most importantly, staying undefeated while keeping his place as the number one pound-4-pound fighter in the world.

Guillermo Rigondeaux Beating Nonito Donaire is Bad for Boxing
Posted on 14 Apr, 2013, by Morgan in BoxingBeing a two time gold-medal winner in the Olympics isn’t enough to make you popular, and winning titles at Batmanweight won’t do the trick either if you’re not a boxer people like to watch. Guillermo Rigondeaux pulled off a huge win over one of the best pound-for-pound fighters in the world, Nonito Donaire, but isn’t going to help him or the world of boxing in any kind of way. More
Aftermath of the Djokovic – Murray US Open Final
Posted on 11 Sep, 2012, by Riven in FeaturedIt seems hard to comprehend and utter the words, even write them down. Andy Murray, US Open Champion, Grand Slam champion. It took four previous Grand Slam final failures, three against Roger Federer and one against Novak Djokovic to get the 25 year old Brit to where he is. It might have taken longer than anticipated, but there’s no doubt he finally earned to be ranked among the world’s top 4. More
Not the End of the Spain Era; Just the Olympic Games
Posted on 30 Jul, 2012, by Peter in SoccerWhile the Spanish papers are already bashing every player and everyone involved with the Spain U-23 team that has lost the first two matches in the 2012 Olympic games football tournament, they seem to forget that these are only the Olympics – not the Euro or the World cup.

Excellent Opening Ceremony, On With the Olympics
Posted on 27 Jul, 2012, by Morgan in MiscellaneousThis wasn’t the martial order of Beijing, but rather a fantastic blend of everything Danny Boyle thought was worthy from British culture and then some, making the London Olympic games a success, at least on the first day, going by the brilliant (yet a bit long) opening ceremony.

Aftermath of the Klitschko – Thompson Title Fight
Posted on 8 Jul, 2012, by Morgan in BoxingAnother heavyweight title fight, another comfortable win for Wladimir Klitschko. This time? 40-Year old Tony Thompson, who hardly produced anything of note on his second tumble in the ring with the younger Klitschko brother, winning with a sixth round knockout, retaining the WBA, IBF, WBO, IBO & Ring Heavyweight title belts.

Aftermath of the Pacquiao – Bradley Fight
Posted on 10 Jun, 2012, by gerakis100 in BoxingManny Pacquiao landed more punches and more power shots than Timothy Bradley. According to anyone who was watching and scoring the fight, Pacquiao had won something between 8 to 10 of the rounds. It was that one sided. But the judges saw a completely different fight, and somehow, someway, decided to give the sport another terrible decision – Bradley wins, Split Decision. More
Aftermath of the Hopkins – Dawson Title Fight
Posted on 29 Apr, 2012, by gerakis100 in BoxingChad Dawson knew the 12 rounds against Bernard Hopkins were going to be tough and dirty. That’s how Hopkins fights. That’s how Hopkins has remained a Light Heavyweight champion at the age of 47. Dawson did look the bloodier of the two due to a nasty cut above his eye, but there was no doubt about the winner, the better boxer and the new WBC Light Heavyweight champion. More

Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders in Swimsuit Calendar Photoshoot
While the Dallas Cowboys are no longer the force they used to be in the NFL, the allure and prestige of being a Cowboys cheerleader is still a thing to envy for some girls (and maybe even boys), and is generally a pleasing thing to see when the ladies join forces to create a swimsuit calender, posing in bikinis on the Mexican island of Cozumel.
