I want to start off here by saying that I love the UFC. Compared to the other MMA organizations they have — in my opinion at least — the right format with the cage, the right rules, the right promotion and the right announcers (Joe Rogan is a great voice for the sport). However, with [...]

Patriots are simply too good
Is it just me, or do you get the feeling that this NFL season is already over? That the New England Patriots are the main event and everything else that goes on is just background noise.

To my readers
Sorry about the long layoff from my posts. I have been going through some changes in my life as I had to move to California and take a job as a sports editor so I’ve been pretty busy with work and after work you get kinda tired of writing (a little) and want a break [...]

An amazing movie in both its action scenes and acting as well as the theme that it addresses and history that it summarizes. Director Jason Berg and producer Michael Mann create an exhilarating 100 minute feature that keeps you on the edge of your seat and leaves you with a sense wanting to continue fighting [...]

Mariners season ends, crucial offseason begins
The season closed with a glimpse into the future. Felix Hernandez was dominant, going 8 2/3 innings and giving up just 4 hits with 8 strikeouts on just 106 pitches before giving way albeit reluctantly to J.J. Putz who was seeking his 40th save and got it in the 4-2 season ending victory.
Hernandez was derailed [...]
