Football Hype With Houston Texans Tickets

Sunday 9 March 2008 @ 4:41 pm

For those who want to experience the thrill and excitement of cutting edge football, you can’t get closer than with Houston Texans tickets. For a team that started out as an expansion team, the Texans are now seen as a team with the most potential in the NFL.

The Houston Texans are part of the National Football League and are affiliated to the AFC South and the American Football League. The Texans currently have no league, division or conference wins to their name, primarily because they are still a very new team.

Boat Launching Tips For Beginning Boaters

Sunday 9 March 2008 @ 4:30 pm

Preparing For Boat Launch
When it comes to launching a boat your entire success depends on how well you?re prepared. Everyone will benefit if you take the time to prepare your boat before you even reach the ramp.

You should conduct an inspection of your boat prior to using it since there is always the possibility of damage or failure on the hull. Then, before backing down the ramp you should raise your outdrive or outboard motor and remove all tie-down straps and binders. It is also important to make sure that the boat winch is engaged and that it is attached to the eyebolt on the bow of your boat.

While waiting in line to launch your boat take the time to check your fuel level, vital fluids and make sure all your safety equipment is on board. Make sure the drain plug is installed, without the drain plug you won?t be going very far in your boat.

Once it’s your turn to Continue Reading »

Fly Fishing Supplies

Sunday 9 March 2008 @ 4:30 pm

Besides the obvious supplies of rods and reels, there are really a lot of other supplies you should have in your fly fishing arsenal. It can make the difference between a great fishing trip and a so-so fishing trip when you have a variety of products at your disposal. So what types of supplies will you need to have on hand?

To begin with, you should have an ample supply of flies. When you are out on a river or stream, you will want to match the food source that is readily available to the fish. They are much more likely to bite when they recognize their normal food as opposed to anything Continue Reading »

What is it that Qualifies Something as a Sport?

Thursday 25 October 2007 @ 1:34 pm

Let?s get a quick Canon Fodder definition out of the way.

sport ? A game or competition between two or more willing opponents where each side has the ability and opportunity to react and impact the other?s actions. The final result should leave no room for judgment or interpretation.

You won?t find this definition in Webster?s. It?s completely my own creation. Most fans probably won?t agree with my terminology, but I feel it makes more sense than the terms we as fans often toss about without consideration.

I?m a fan of sports. Baseball. Football. Hockey. Basketball. Tennis. Curling. Chess. Sports one and all.

Golf? Bowling? Figure skating? Gymnastics? Entertaining and difficult to master, but non-sports across the board.

So now you?re sitting there digesting my seemingly preposterous few lines of blather and thinking, this guy is nuts. Tiger Woods is clearly an athlete but doesn?t play a sport? What about all those Olympians we trot out every four years? Surely they are all athletes.

Well, yes. There are plenty of folks considered athletes that don?t actually play a sport. (Check out Canon Fodder for a definition of an athlete.)

I think the best way to approach this is to look at games we don?t consider sports and work forward. Let?s start with something involving a certain measure of skill and can be performed competitively, but lacks the qualities of a sport. Take juggling. It?s definitely a skill. With practice, one could become an extraordinary juggler. A person could ?challenge? Continue Reading »

Kobe Bryant Houston Rockets Trade Rumor

Thursday 25 October 2007 @ 12:46 pm

Just heard on the radio that the Houston Rockets have contacted the Los Angeles Lakers and are very interested in a trade for Kobe Bryant. I don’t have a lot of details but the trade would probably include Kobe and Vlad for Tracy McGrady (T-Mac), Bonzi Wells and Battier or something similar.

The radio station I heard this was 790 The Sports Animal, and it was around 12:00 on Thursday, October 25, 2007.
