The tale of two pacmans 2007-04-15 21:24:51 Paquiao and Solis Saturday April 15th fight is included at the end of this post.
The Pacmans of sports are making noise these days in media outlets. Writers and broadcasters alike are taking much time in filtering the right words for each of these Pacmans.
In United States and the NFL lovers, Adam “Pacman” Jones,a prominent cornerback of the Tenesse Titans. He has a career-high 62 tackles, one sack, 1 forced fumble, 12 deflected passes, 4 interceptions, one interception touchdowns, 14 passes defended, 440 punt return yards with 3 punt return touchdowns.
As good as player as he is, Pacman Jones’ off the field issues may lead to the end of his career. He was suspended by the NFL for one year and the awful thing for him is that the NFL Players’ Association have fully supported the vastness of the suspension. Pacman Jones appeal is unlikely to be heard. Also he may no longer be a Titans next year.
There is this Pacman in the other side of the globe and his cou
$126 M: Too heavy for Barry Zito? 2007-04-15 20:01:39 Money may not change a man, but in the long run it will will change the perception of others to the man. Others may change on the man but he has to stand up and be the same.

At last Sidney Crosby in the headlines 2007-04-15 05:37:06 I posted about SidneyCrosby
’s accomplishment as the youngest in pro sports to be a scoring leader. It’s not a big circus for the media! The fact that it is in the NHL.
Truly greatness is measured in the playoffs and the media catches up when a player performed a spectacular game. I am discouraged the way this writer of ESPN who gives almost all the credit to Gary Roberts who scored and assisted the winning goal to Crosby.
He eluded the fact that Crosby has really the star qualities of a player. Crosby needs to prove himself the next game. He must bring the Pittsburg Penguins to the next level.
If Crosby will lead his team to victory again, the media will not be mute to recognize a rising star in the National Hockey League. Read more:headlines

The Kiss: Charles Barkley A Gay? 2007-04-13 02:09:13 I am adding a new category in my blog, entitled Funny Sports Videos. My first post will be on CharlesBarkley
.
The NBA’s All Star break last February was one of the most memorable for me not because of Kobe Bryant’s winning the MVP and the great dunkers who judged in the slam dunk contest like Michael Jordan, Julius Erving, and Vince Carter, but the lips-to-lips of Charles Barkley

Shaq is Crying 2007-04-24 03:43:37 Does Shaq has the right to call out the officials in Saturday’s game?
The fouls were called unfairly for Shaq. Three of them apparently weren’t foul. Those bad calls clearly affected the outcome of the game.
“My intention was to just come out and be myself,” O’Neal said Saturday in the visitors’ locker room. “Until (referee) Eddie Rush derailed me. I’m just very, very frustrated with the inconsistency of what’s going on. Very, very, very frustrated. (more…)

Landis had insisted the follow-up tests weren’t necessary because the primary “A” samples tested negative for banned substances during the Tour.(AP)

Moss by the Patriots is still the biggest talk in the sports world.

Jon Gruden, Don Nelson: Knowing Your Enemy Is The Key 2007-05-01 01:36:29 My friend Julio told me before the start of this series that the Golden State Warriors have a greater chances to upset the Dallas Mavericks than the Lakers against the Phoenix Suns. He was convinced that the three games which the Warriors won all of them were not fluke at all.
Julio is right than Charles Barkley who predicted that the Mavericks would win 4-1. Even all the ESPN and TNT analysts couldn’t believe and are stunned of what is going on. If you are an spectator, the game Sunday night was a thriller and amazing.

Whatever Happened To Anna Kournikova? 2007-05-04 04:50:26 It’s like a decade ago since I haven’t seen Anna Kournikova
played in the tournament. Her appearances on TV commercials have been limited recently. It is not bothersome to ask, “What happened to her”?
She is still one of the most alluring tennis players in history. In a simple yet enhancing sentence, I would say, “She’s got the look”. Though she is not that bad as a player, her looks commanded her success and catapulted her to fame and riches. Her attractive photos are what people are searching for.

Martina Hingis Out Of French Open 2007-05-17 08:52:14 I remember watching a documentary about MartinaHingis
on how her mother got her name from Martina Navratilova. This documentary ran just after she had won her first Wimbledon as the youngest ever in the 20th century.
I thought she would win more than 20 grandslams.Her youth gave us the indication. We thought she would come near or even surpass Steffi Graf’s. But we’ve seen in our eyes how she was denied those grandslams.
Martina Hingis
should have won the 1999 French
Open against Stefi Graf. She was one match-point away but the great Steffi Graf came back to capture the moment.
We had witnessed how Hingis struggled against the power-serving Williams sister. Martina had never had an answer to those forces. Since then she was gone from the spotlight.
She made a comeback last year from injury. Her intelligence of the game is still there but her physical ability can no longer contain what is required for her to win.
Hingis had just pulled herself out of this month’s Fren
