NFL Has Tebowmania, NBA Has Linsanity
Sunday, 12 February, 2012

The NFL season has just concluded, and Tebowmania was one of the most unbelievable things that we’d ever seen in the NFL. I followed it all the way, and it was an amazing journey that captured the imagination of America. Tim Tebow, one of the greatest college football players ever, takes over a struggling 1-4 [...]

Not Good
Monday, 13 June, 2011

Most exciting race of the season yet, and Schumacher’s best performance since returning to F1…and I missed the race! Not good. Besides, the race was suspended waaay too long and I just couldn’t afford to stay up any longer. Nonetheless, good to know that Schumi is alive and well. Go Schumi!!! In other news, Mavs [...]

Go Fed!!!
Saturday, 4 June, 2011

This has been a great start to the sporting weekend thus far. Firstly, Mavs come from 15 points down midway through the 4th quarter to beat the Heat in Game 2. Dirk is just playing out of his mind! Some of his moves were just sick. (But then, he’s been doing that throughout the playoffs [...]

2011 Barca or 1996 Bulls?
Monday, 30 May, 2011

I didn’t watch the Champions League final a few days ago, but I heard that Barca was just on another planet altogether, somewhat like the final in Rome two years ago. In fact, some say this is the greatest football team ever assembled. I’m no football expert, but I guess there has to be some [...]

The End Of An Era
Saturday, 7 May, 2011

Today we witness a long and glorious era coming to an end. I thought last season was when we saw the end of the Kobe Bryant era. But I was wrong. He still won his 5th title last season, though I still believe that Pau Gasol had a huge part to play in it. Anyway, [...]

Kobe Still Got It
Thursday, 28 April, 2011

Used to be when Kobe did something like this (and he did it rather frequently back in the day), we would be like “Woah! Great dunk!” Nowadays it’s more like “Wow! You mean he can still do that?!?!” The dynamic is slightly different.

Go Spurs!
Thursday, 28 April, 2011

Huge shot by Manu Ginobili and even HUGER shot by Gary Neal in the dying seconds to keep the Spurs season (and the Tim Duncan era) alive. Woohoo! Go Spurs! Spurs in 7!

Kevin Durant
Monday, 18 April, 2011

It’s kinda unreal watching Kevin Durant play basketball. There is something inexplicably magnetic about the experience. It’s as if he was born with the sole purpose of playing basketball, and you can’t say this for every star player out there. There is something so raw and natural about his talent. He makes the game look [...]

NBA Playoffs
Wednesday, 13 April, 2011

I’m so pumped for this year’s NBA playoffs. It’s the time of the sporting year that I always look forward to. Two whole months of sheer basketball bliss. Nothing beats the excitement and intensity of the NBA playoffs. Lakers were on a fantastic run of form after the All-Star break, but are suddenly limping towards [...]

The Golden Age Of Point Guards
Monday, 4 April, 2011

It seems to me like we’re experiencing some sort of golden age of point guards in the NBA right now. There is, of course, the leading MVP candidate Derrick Rose, who is just unlike anything we’ve ever seen before. The leap in improvement he’s made between last season and this season is just mind-boggling. Then [...]
