2009/10 Heineken Cup Preview: Biarritz vs. Munster

  The only team in the final four not to have won a Heineken Cup will welcome a Munster side that could well lay claim to being the prominent specialist in European competition.   This is Munster’s 12th straight appearance in the finals, and on nine of those occasions has played in a Heineken Cup semi.    No matter what their condition, form or squad strength, the two time... 

2009/10 Heineken Cup Preview: Toulouse vs. Leinster

The penultimate round of the Heineken Cup gets underway with the reigning champions travelling to face the most decorated team in the history of Europe in what will be a mouth watering clash.   To say this is a difficult match to predict is a massive understatement.   On one hand, you have Stade Toulousain, whose trophy cabinet is more stacked than any team in France.  The 17 time French... 

Tiger Woods Returns to Quail Hollow Ready To Win

No one athlete has ever found themselve under a microscope like Tiger Woods has over the last six months.  His life has been changed upside down in the face of cheating on his wife Elin, and Tiger has had to look himself in the camera and admit to the world what he did wrong. That’s not easy for anyone to do, especially someone with the fame and popularity of Tiger Woods.  A billion... 

Quail Hollow Will Fall to Tiger Woods’s Increased Desire To Keep Winning

Tiger Woods will win this weekend. It’s time to get back to business. Wins make the memories fade of past digressions. Wins rekindle the fans’ admiration and sponsors’ greed. Wins are what Tiger Woods needs in his mind, and wins are what he will get. This is a tune-up for a run at the Players Championship, and the U.S. Open.  The public and most golf fans will revel if Woods... 

For Rafael Nadal, the Body Finally Comes First

It’s finally happened—the announcement we have been waiting to hear for the last several years.  It took longer than most thought it would, but finally Rafael Nadal and his uncle (and coach) Toni Nadal have decided to streamline their tennis schedule.  It took years of denial, and last year’s terrible physical injuries, for Nadal to realize that denying there is a problem—and... 

Dear Venus and Serena…

We hate you. We hate your brown skin and your mindless athleticism. We hate the fact that all of that talent sprouted in South Central Los Angeles, a community nurtured and sustained by racism/white supremacy, a dynamic that failed to keep you where we wanted to keep you… We hate that all of those Grand Slam trophies were conceived, born and flourished in one niggerish, eyesore of a family (an... 

The 2010 Quail Hollow Championship Six Pack

Congrats go out to Jason Bohn on his wire to wire crushing at the Zurich Classic in New Orleans last week. Didn’t see that one coming. Seems like that’s the trend this year for some reason. It’s funny too, because last week when perusing my spreadsheet I seemed to remember Bohn contending in some tourney last year, and at that point I realized I hadn’t been tracking him. With...

The Misplaced Adulation Of Tiger Woods: Why I Hate Golf’s No. 1 Alpha Male

I hate Tiger Woods. There. I said it. Let me say it again so you understand me completely—I hate Tiger Woods. Does that statement make me a racist? I ask only because I know some will make that knee-jerk claim. Does it make me a jealous sot? Once again, there will be finger pointing. Am I a holier-than-thou evangelist puritan who swears I’ve never used the Lord’s name in vain after...
