Why Robbie Deans Was the Wrong Choice for the Wallabies

About four years ago, I was in a small township in the Waikato called Te Kauwhata. My friend was wearing a Wallabies jacket and a man approached us and said, “I’d be afraid of the Wallabies this year, they took the best coach we have.” For a while I was scared, because in his first match against his homeland, the Wallabies won, 31-19, and it looked like our grip on the Bledisloe was... 

Super Rugby: Improved Depth Will Make Highlanders Contenders in 2012

Depth is not a word that has been associated with the Highlanders for quite some time. In fact it’s been a rather frustrating time for those in the south of New Zealand, who have been left constantly scratching their heads at the failures of their once-proud team. Names like Jeff Wilson, Josh Kronfeld and Taine Randall were replaced by journeymen who struggled to foot it with the best in the... 

International Soccer: Colombia’s Dream Team

Colombian soccer has always had multiple players that have shined in the national and international spotlight. Their past and recent struggles to qualify for the FIFA World Cup does not justify the skillful players that Colombia has produced in the past 20 years.  They enjoyed their golden years during the 1990s when they qualified for all of three World Cups held during that decade. Soccer’s... 

Who Will Win Euro 2012?

SPAIN Well, the obvious answer is Spain, but I’m not subscribing to that just yet. I thought Spain were poor in the 2010 World Cup and if you were to watch the Spain games over again then it’s amazing how good David Villa was for them and how he saved them in most games. Fast-forward to Euro 2012, and it’s not totally clear what Spain are going to do in terms of a striker. Villa is... 

Matt Every Interview Drops Major Bomb on PGA Tour

It may be one of the most awkward moments in Golf Channel history. Second round leader Matt Every was being interviewed during the Friday golf telecast by the Golf Channel’s Kelly Tilghman after he finished with a 64, setting the 36-hole pace with a 10-under par 130 at the Sony Open. After some questions about his round, Tilghman brought up Every’s July 2010 arrest on marijuana... 

Tim Tebow and Tiger Woods Pebble Beach Pairing Would Make Event Must-See TV

Tim Tebow and Tiger Woods teeing it up together? Maybe the Mayans were right after all. While the pairing is far from guaranteed for next month’s AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am, Woods has committed to playing the event and Sean Martin of Golfweek reports that the tournament officials are trying to reel in Tebow as well. The presence of both men would give the early-season tourney an immediate... 

PGA Tour 2012: 12 Bold Predictions for the Coming Golf Season

The 2012 PGA Tour season crowned its first winner at the Hyundai Tournament of Champions this past week in Hawaii. Steve Stricker picked up where he left off last season—minus the problems with a neck injury late in the year—and outlasted the field with a remarkable 23-under-par 269 total. The win catapulted him to No. 5 in the Official World Golf Ranking. Here’s my first bold prediction:... 

Sony Open 2012 Round 1: Graham DeLaet Has 2-Stroke Lead After Impressive 63.

Graham DeLaet hasn’t played competitive golf in over 7 months.  You wouldn’t have been able to tell after his 7-under round of 63, which included 6 birdies and an eagle. DeLaet had to have back surgery at the beginning of last year to alleviate the pain caused by a disk rubbing on a nerve. He tried coming back later in the year, but after a few rounds realized it was too soon and took... 

Tim Tebow and Tiger Woods Possible Pairing for AT&T at Pebble Beach Pro-Am

Tiger Woods confirmed this past Monday that he will be making his PGA Tour debut in USA at the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am. And now it has been reported by Globalgolfpost.com, that tournament officials are considering extending an invitation to Denver Broncos quarterback Tim Tebow to be his playing partner. Tebow was recently named U.S. Favorite Athlete by a recent ESPN poll.  There... 

Tiger Woods’ Decision to Play Pebble Beach Shows Little Confidence

The reasons for Tiger Woods to skip the Farmers Insurance Open seem obvious. He will get a hefty appearance fee for playing in Dubai. The tournament will see him face some of the worlds top golfers. Woods himself mentioned the tournament sponsor HSBC and the good relationship he has with them. At the same time, the decision to play at Pebble Beach seems obvious. Woods’ major sponsor, AT&T,...
