The big game is finally here.  All I have to say is that I hope that it’s more entertaining than the first time these two teams played.  Don’t get me wrong, the defense was amazing in that game.  But, both teams were so afraid of making a mistake that it was lame offensively.  I expect [...]

The U.S. Olympic Committee today announced the Topps Company as the exclusive trading card producer of Team USA for the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games.

The NFL regular season has come to an end.  It sure was a wild ride.  Anyone who questioned the rookies this season (me for sure), can now take back everything they said.  I certainly underestimated the quarterbacks for sure.  I think many people saw some talent at wide receiver, so that wasn’t a huge surprise. [...]

The NFL Playoffs are finally here.  I find the differences in conferences very interesting.  In fact, they are almost polar opposites.  The AFC is all about defense, while the NFC is all about offense.  I took a look at the season statistical rankings and I found something pretty amazing.  I’ll explain.

Well, we’re down to one week in the NFL.  It’s been quite a year so far.  Cam Newton has been truly remarkable this year.  And we’ve seen quite a bit of production from several other rookies as well.  We really couldn’t have asked for much more out of the rookie crop this year.  I expect [...]

Leaf will be releasing Golf in early 2012.  Check out the early images.              

Only 2 weeks left now.  Week 15 was a very solid week for rookies.  Cam Newton continues to impress with his dynamic play.  Greg Little had a breakout performance that we have been waiting for since the season started.  Jake Locker continues to show that he should be the starter in Tennessee.  I know I [...]

Another week is in the books.  It’s safe to say it was a decent week for rookies.  The big hit was that we lost DeMarco Murray for the year.  That hurts big time.  He was having a fantastic rookie year.  However, it wasn’t a total downer of a week as several rookies had very nice [...]
