Terrell Owens Makes Successful Debut With Three Touchdowns In Indoor Game

Terrell Owens has taken his game indoor for a little while, but he still knows how to play the game. Owens is now 38 and playing for the Allen Wranglers of the Indoor Football League. In his debut, Owens caught three passes all touchdowns for 53 yards as the Wranglers defeated the Wichita Wild, 50-30. The Wranglers had over 5,000 in attendance to watch the former NFL star play. It seems T.O. is a draw no matter where he goes.

Owens is hoping this stop in the Indoor Football League will give him a chance to show he can still help an NFL club. The goal is to get an NFL tryout, and he overcame the first hurdle with a win. Now if T.O. can keep his ego in check and continue to haul in touchdown passes he may just get that NFL tryout. Owens wants to get back to the NFL real bad, so he maybe on his best behavior for awhile. People especially GM's want to see what T.O. can do before they are willing to have him come in for a tryout. Now the key is will he be able to keep it up and stay injury free.

Ryan Braun Wins Appeal Delivers Blow To MLB Drug Testing

Ryan Braun said he was innocence and the panel by a score of 2-1 agree with him and now he will not need to serve a 50 game suspension. This is great news to Milwaukee Brewers baseball fans and Braun supporters. How Braun beat the test maybe a little shady in people's eyes, but they followed the rules and beat the system plain and simple. Yes, it may not look right but let us take a closer look at something that many people are overlooking about Ryan Braun.

Braun has passed over 25 drug tests in my career, including at least three in the past year. A person familiar with the situation told The Associated Press that, after being informed of the positive result, Braun asked to have another urine test taken, and that the second test was within normal range. The key is the second test at the same time that was taken was normal. This goes to show you something was flawed in the testing. Braun has passed 28 tests and deserved to win his appeal. Even if he did not win his appeal I am sure he would have brought evidence to prove what he was taking and why. We will never know that evidence because he did not need it. MLB drug testing failed this time around and Braun was the lucky winner.

Don't Blame Tony Romo He Does Need Help

Over the last few years I have watch Tony Romo make some amazing plays and I have also seen him make some horrible plays as well. This is what Cowboys have when you watch Tony Romo play for four quarters. Is it time to move on from Tony Romo? Many Cowboy fans have asked me that question and I always give them the same answer no way. There are many reasons the Dallas Cowboys should not blame all their troubles at the feet of Tony Romo.

Here are the many reasons Tony Romo is going to be around for awhile. The first reason is Jerry Jones is paying him a lot of money, so he will be given a chance to take the Cowboys to a Super Bowl. The second main reason and many Cowboy fans don't like to hear this one it is not all Romo's fault. It is true the quarterback is usually the one that takes all the heat and reaps all the rewards. In Romo's case he has not had as much help as he should have during his time as a starter.

There are four main reasons Tony Romo has struggled as quarterback of the Dallas Cowboys. The offensive line, wide receivers, running backs, and his own ego. Let us look at each one of these. Quarterbacks that do well in the NFL that have a offensive line that has been together for a long time. Without an offensive line nothing else will work well. Dallas has never had an offensive line for Romo that was consistent and that has hurt Romo. It should be the responsibility of managers (who have graduated from sports management colleges) to create an excellent team.

Another area that the Cowboys have struggle in recent years is a running game. Yes, the Cowboys have had 1,000 yard rushers, but it always seems year after year they get away from who did well the year before. Until the Cowboys get a consistent running game Romo will continue to struggle. Wide receivers have been the same as the running game as well. Besides Jason Witten the Cowboys really have not had a wide receiver that Romo could rely on.

Lastly, Tony Romo has not realized what it means to wear the Dallas Cowboys Star and be a Cowboys quarterback. he is getting better at it, but still has a long way to go. Combine all of these things and you can see why Tony Romo Struggles. In my book though he still is the guy the Cowboys need to lead them.

The End Of An Era Boston's Big Three!

It looks like the writing is on the wall for The Big Three this will probably be the last season they are together. Kevin Garnett, Ray Allen and Paul Pierce have all seen their best years behind them. Breaking them up is something the Celtics will need to do soon. All three players are still good, but right now the Celtics are just too old to compete. When they play teams that are younger the big three struggle to keep up with them.

Boston needs to get younger and still keep the Big Three, but that is just not possible. The way the salary cap is these days Boston will need to let go of someone. Allen or Garnett are most likely the ones that will be going. I look for this to be Ray Allen's last year in the NBA, and Garnett could be traded. Now that the Celtics are on the downswing it should be much easier to trade these players out of Boston without much bitching from the fans.

Tiger Woods Meltsdown As Phil Mickelson Soars At Pebble Beach

When we use to talk about Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson it was Woods who would be soaring while we would watch Mickelson fall apart at the end. Well those roles are reversed as Woods had another major meltdown while Phil Mickelson soared with a great round to capture the win at Pebble Beach. For Michelson it had to be bitterseet considering all the times he would watch Tiger Woods come back for wins against him. This time though it was Mickelson who made the charge and got the win.

For Tiger Woods it was the same thing he has been dealing with lately a collapse down the stretch of a golf tournament. His putting failed him again and many people wonder if Tiger Woods will ever regain his form. From what we have seen so far it looks like he has a ways to go.
Tiger Woods may need help from a sports psychologist to help him get his head back in the game. Many people think he may never be the same Tiger Woods and that is very possible considering what we have seen so far.

Wes Welker Does Not Deserved To Be The Goat In The Super Bowl

Wes Welker has always been a stand-up guy, so when he came to the podium and admitted he may a mistake and maybe cost his team it came as no shock to me. Welker has never hid from reporter's questions and has always done things the right way. To label him as the sole reason the New England Patriots lost the Super Bowl is just crazy. There are many reasons the Patriots lost the Super Bowl and Welker's dropped pass was just one of many mistakes the Patriots made.

People focus on that one play of Welker's instead of all the things he did to get the Patriots in that position. How many receivers read the coverage like he did to get a chance to make that play. I will bet you not a lot. Welker during the season time and time again make the tough catch and gets that tough yard that the Patriots need.To pin this loss on his is just wrong as Welker was not the only player dropping passes in this loss.

Larry Bird Would Take Kobe Over Lebron In Crunch Time

There is one thing Larry Bird knows and that is basketball. When asked who he would take between Kobe and Lebron at crunch time it was easy for Larry Legend. He did admit it would be fun to play with Lebron James. In fact he considers James the best player in the NBA right now. Larry Legend did say though if the game was on the line he would rather have Kobe. I can't say I blame him. Apparently, he has watched Lebron James bricked a few balls on television.

Larry Bird was a clutch performer and it makes sense that he would take Kobe Bryant. He wants a player that he can count on all the time. He knows Kobe Bryant is a guy who works hard and never is happy with his performance on the court. Lebron James is a great player, but as far as a clutch player don't look for Larry Bird to pick him up.

Conserving Power

Thanks for the guest post by Jonathan Curtis

My mom called me yesterday and told me that she heard on the radio that if you unplug all of your appliances when you are not using them, then you can save over $100 per year on your power bill. I do not know if this is actually true or not, but I am willing to try it. I have already looked into TXU energy information to see if I can save money on my power bill. I have also been trying to conserve energy in different ways. I always turn off lights when I leave a room and try to use natural sunlight whenever possible. I have replaced many light bulbs in my home with LED bulbs. I use surge protectors so I can quickly turn the power off for appliances before I go out of town. I had my entire home caulked and sealed when I moved in to insure that no heat or air conditioning could escape. So far I have been able to keep my power bill to a reasonable amount. I hope to save even more in the coming months. With everything else in my life being so expensive, power is one thing I am not willing to splurge on.

Aaron Rodgers Grabs League MVP Honors

Green Bay Packers quarterback had a season for the ages and with that he was able to grab the MVP trophy in a landslide vote. Rodgers earned 48 votes to two for New Orleans quarterback Drew Brees in balloting by a nationwide panel of 50 media members who regularly cover the NFL. Aaron Rodgers led the NFL in passing with a 122.5 rating built on 45 touchdown passes, six interceptions and a 68.3 completion percentage as the Packers went 15-1 and won the NFC North.

Aaron Rodgers had a magical season and one he may not be able to repeat anytime soon. It seems he could do nothing wrong and lead his team to a 15-1 record. Over the last few years Aaron Rodgers has developed into one of the elite quarterbacks in the NFL. I have a feeling this is not the only time we will see Aaron Rodgers getting an MVP award. He could be getting a number more as his career is still real young.

Jim Harbaugh Wins NFL Coach Of The Year

Before Jim Harbaugh the San Francisco 49ers were just an average team with a lot of issues. In one year though Jim Harbaugh changed all that. He took the San Francisco 49ers to a 13-3 record and within one win of a Super Bowl. For all that he has been named NFL Coach Of The Year. There is not a more deserving coach this season in the NFL>

What he did in San Francisco I did not think was possible, but he did. For the most part he took the same players from last season and molded them into winners. For that you have to tip your hat to him. You may not like the way Jim Harbaugh does things all the time, but you have to respect him for bringing a winner on the field to San Francisco.

Curtis Martin And Five Others Headed To Pro Football Hall Of Fame

Curtis Martin has lead a group of six pro football players who will not call Canton, Ohio part of their home. Curtis Martin is joined by is joined by Chris Doleman, Cortez Kennedy, Willie Roaf, Dermontti Dawson, and senior selection Jack Butler. All of these players deserve to be in the Pro Football Hall Of Fame, but just like it is every year it's the players that do not make it in people seem to talk about.

Curtis Martin and Jerome Bettis had similar numbers, but they chose Martin over Bettis. Cris Carter did not make it and he is a guy I was hoping would make it in. Carter is the No. 4 career receiver with 1,101 in 16 seasons with three teams. Others who did not make the grade were Tim Brown and Andre Reed, defensive end/linebackers Kevin Greene and Charles Haley, defensive back Aeneas Williams, and former 49ers owner Ed DeBartolo Jr.

Super Bowl Prediction: Take The Patriots

Well we have arrived at another Super Bowl and this one should be interesting one. Both teams have valid points why they should be crowned Super Bowl Champions. I will admit I never thought I would see the Giants in the Super Bowl, but they have earned their spot. I really did expect to see the Patriots in this position as they have been more consistent this year than the Giants. Now who will win Giants or Patriots.

Everywhere I look I see people picking the Giants. Even the Giants website have already crowned them Super Bowl Champions. Giants players have been talking all week as well so they have plenty of confidence going into this game. They even went as far as to say they are in Tom Brady's head. I do not know about that one. Well to the prediction.

The past is something that Tom Brady does not forget. The Patriots a few years back went into the Super Bowl undefeated only to have the Giants stick it to them. If anyone thinks Tom Brady has forgotten that they are sadly mistaken. The Patriots will come out on top this year by a 34-24 score. I know many people think the Giants will win, but I am here to tell you will not happen this time around.

Body Glove Wetsuits Great Way To Enjoy The Water

Enjoying the water is something more and more people are doing all year long. For some though the temperature can be a deterrent, but it should not be. With Body Glove wetsuits, you can enjoy the water no matter how it may feel to you. The reason for that is Body Glove products are designed with innovative technology giving you the best possible product. Now for over 60 years this company has been outfitting surfers, divers, and sports enthusiasts whom love water sports.

Over the last few years, the wetsuit has gone under many changes and Body Glove has been one of the leaders. The vapor wetsuit is one of the company’s top products. It combines warmth, flexibility, and comfort along with water repellent technology. Body Glove has also been a leader in wetsuit technology for women as well. Everyone knows more and more women are into water sports and having a top quality wetsuit is important.

The latest and maybe the greatest Body Glove product is the Pr1me Wetsuit. It is warm and flexible and performs by letting you staying longer in the water. This one wetsuit truly fits like a glove keeping you performing at peak efficiency.

Peyton Manning And Colts Headed For Ugly Break-up

It looks like the Indianapolis Colts and Peyton Manning could be headed for a very ugly public divorce it seems. Peyton has been cleared to practice by his doctors, but the Colts have not cleared him. This is interesting to say the least, and gives me a good idea that Peyton Manning's day as a Colt is numbered.

With the Colts planning on drafting Andrew Luck it looks like the divorce will happen between the Colts and Peyton Manning. The sad part is it should not go down this way, but it looks like it will. The other bad part of this whole thing is Andrew Luck could take the brunt of all of this from the Colts fans if he replaces Manning.

No matter how you look at it if the Colts cut Peyton Manning it will be a sad day in Indianapolis. The fans will lose out on having a quarterback Peyton Manning finishing his career in Indy. Peyton has given so much to the fans and the sad part is he deserves a better fate. Let's hope this works out for all parties concerned.

Texas Longhorns Get Richer By Doing Things The Right Way

It has been a few years since Mack Brown and his Texas Longhorns have played in a National Championship, but that has not slowed down the Texas Longhorns. Yes, Longhorn fans have not been happy with results in the last few years, but the Longhorns have done things the right way. They have kept Mack Brown on as coached when some wanted him to go. How has Mack Brown paid back the faith in him? The Texas Longhorns have the second best recruiting class behind only Alabama in 2012. What does this mean for Longhorn fans? It simply means the Texas Longhorns are going to be a factor in the National Championship picture the next few years.

Texas was able to land two 5-star recruits and 14 4-star recruits. One name Longhorn fans want to pay close attention to is Johnathan Gray. He is a running back with great speed and had almost 4,000 yards rushing and he scored 65 TD's in his senior season. Those are some amazing numbers and he is bringing that talent to Texas to thrill Longhorn fans. Texas has had some down years lately, but they have stayed the course and now they are reaping the rewards. Look for the Texas Longhorns to be one of the teams that could surprise in 2012. With the bumper crop of talent coming in and what is already there we could be hearing Hookem Horns a lot in 2012 and beyond.

Is Andrew Luck Pushing Peyton Manning Out The Door?

Stanford quarterback Andrew Luck most likely will be the choice of the Indianapolis Colts and he has made it cleared he would like to start as a rookie. Now he also said that he would like to learn from Peyton Manning as well. Well, Andrew Luck you really cannot have it both ways. Could Andrew Luck's desire to start push Peyton Manning out of Indianapolis? It will be interesting to see how this all plays out.

Today, Peyton Manning was cleared to start playing again, so that should complicate it even more. The Colts could have two very good quarterbacks, but only room for one player. This reminds me a lot about the same situation like they had in Green Bay. Brett Favre was eventually let go and I think that is what will happen to Peyton Manning. Andrew Luck is younger and the Colts will look at their future and Peyton will not be around forever. As much as it pains me to say this I just do not see Peyton Manning finishing his career in Indy!

What Has Happen To My Pro Wrestling?

Okay I will admit I am one of those professional wrestling junkies from way back. I watched Georgia Championship Wrestling every Saturday Night when it was on. Yes, this post may not be as sports related as I usually talked about, but I wanted to talk about the decline of this once popular sport. OMG did I just call it a sport. Okay, sports entertainment is the more proper term as do not want to offend anyone. I have over the years watched professional wrestling go downhill and it looks like there is no end in sight.

During the peak of Professional Wrestling stars like Hulk Hogan, Randy "Macho Man" Savage, Superstar Billy Graham, and Ric Flair were megastars. Most of these have retired or died, and some just do not wrestle anymore. Of course there was a lot of names I did not mention and in the comments mention your favorite wrestler as I would love to know who you cheered for. Fast forward today and you have professional wrestling without the stars anymore. The wrestlers like The Undertaker, and Triple H are just getting to old to do it anymore.

The WWE and others have struggled to find those big name stars that fans have come to expect from them. Fans instead are being treated to wrestlers way passed their prime and that is a shame. During the 80's and 90's when wrestling was at it's peak new faces could always be found, but that is not the case anymore. Yes, professional wrestling is in decline and I do not think it will ever get back to where it once was anytime soon.

Jim Tressel Lands Job In Akron As An Administrator

Jim Tressel has found another job, but not the kind that we may all think. Tressel who resigned from Ohio State will be taking a job with the University of Akron as an Administrator. Tressel has been hired as vice president for strategic engagement and will earn a base salary of $200,000 per year. The job starts May. 1 and he will be working with alumni, community organizations and friends of the school to develop strategies and efforts to help students succeed.

It is a non-athletic position and should be a good move for Jim Tressel. I do hope he does get back into coaching at some point as he was a good football coach. He made some bad decisions and that really hurt him. Getting a fresh start is what he needed and starting somewhere else is a good idea for him. Hopefully, somewhere down the road we will see him again on the football field coaching.

Danica Patrick Should Earn A Spot Not Be Given One

After I read about Danica Patrick and how she got her spot in the Daytona 500 I find myself not really happy the way it went down. I mean yes they bought there spot and that is legal under Nascar rules. I just do not think it is fair to other drivers trying to make the field. Yes, people will say they could have bought the spot, but most do not have the backing or that kind of money. If they want to get into the Daytona 500 they must race in. This is what Danica Patrick should have been forced to do as well. I am against people buying spots into this race.

Nascar has gotten away from a level playing field and that is why one-car teams have very little chance for success these days. Rickey Rudd found out how tough it was even with a good sponsor. Earning your spot in the big show is how it should be done. Dancia Patrick may have qualified anyways, but I still would have liked to see her earn it. Buying spots because you have deep pockets in my opinion is just wrong in my opinion.

Aaron Rodgers Calls Out His NFC Pro Bowl team!

I knew I liked Aaron Rodgers for many reasons, but calling out his NFC Pro Bowl was a great move in my opinion. As fans we all know when it comes to the AFC-NFC Pro Bowl rarely do players run or play all-out for the fans. Even though fans pay top dollars for tickets all season long players look at this game as a game they do not have to play hard in. I give Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers credit for calling out his team. Most players would just let it go, but at least he addressed it. This was a long time coming and he should be applauded for it.

The AFC routed the NFC 59-41 in a game that drew boos at Aloha Stadium in Honolulu and for good reason. Fans as a whole are getting tired of players not go all out. The problem is there really is no easy solution to the problem. Players will not play all out in these kinds of games, as it always has been that way and it won't change anytime soon. I guess it's just something we will have to continue to deal with as fans, and it looks like players too. At least Aaron Rodgers stood up and said something, as he could have swept it under the rug, but he didn't.

NBA Schedule Feb 1, 2012

Tonight should find some interesting games for NBA fans to watch. I really like the Chicago and Philadelphia match-up. The Bulls are very good and the 76ers are a team that have been playing very well this season. Indiana and Minnesota is another match-up to keep your eyes on. I really like what the Pacers are doing this season and Minnesota is another team that have won some games that I thought they would lose. Some interesting games for all NBA fans to watch tonight.

Will Dwight Howard Help A Team Win A Championship This Year?

Being an Orlando Magic fan I've had a floor seat to watch Dwight Howard through the years and I must say many things come to mind. Dwight wants to win an NBA Championship, and wants out of Orlando to do it. Now I will admit I will agree with Dwight he should be shipped out of Orlando and at times has not got the support of his teammates like he should. Yes, he has a right to rip his teammates privately, but never in a public forum.

Now no matter where Dwight Howard gets traded I highly doubt he will win an NBA Championship anytime soon. Unless he goes to Chicago or Miami I just do not see that in his future right now. Dwight needs to work on his foul shooting as in a half court game that will be his downfall. He also must understand this is a team game and needs to play that way. Yes, Dwight Howard has tons of talent, but talent will only take you so far in the NBA.

The teams that win NBA Championships understand it still is a team game and you must play as a team. Someone will be trading for Dwight Howard, but until he learns to play with others in a team setting he is doomed to repeat his failures in Orlando. It will be interesting to see where he lands and how much he can help someone. I do not think he will help any team win a championship this year though.

UnderTaker Is Back And Triple HHH Does Not Seem Happy!

I really thought Undertaker would return at the Royal Rumble, but he has made back to Raw and Triple HHH did not seem thrilled with it. In the clip below you can see Triple HHH reaction to The Deadman reappearing once again. I think that we will see The Undertaker in Wrestlemania, but against who is the question. Many different names have been floating around, but the one thing we do know The Undertaker is back and that cannot be good for the WWE Universe.

What Do The Colts Do With Peyton Manning?

The Indianapolis Colts have a tough decision on their shoulders these days. Do they keep Peyton Manning or save money and cut him loose? A roster bonus is due Peyton Manning soon, so they will make that decision soon. Manning has indicated he will be ready to play this coming season, but the Colts also plan on drafting Andrew Luck out of Stanford as well. This means decision time will be tough for the Irsay family and the Colts. Peyton has been like a son to them and cutting him loose can be a double edged sword for this organization.

The decision will basically come down to one thing for the Colts do they want to start a new era or are they happy with the old one. When they fired their coach they could be leaning towards a new era which would mean Andrew Luck. If the Colts go that direction they will have part of their fan base that will not be very happy. The only way they would not would be if Luck brought them a Super Bowl. In my opinion, I think they should keep Peyton Manning, but only time will tell how this will work out. No matter what, it is a tough decision for the Irsay's to have to make.
