Morrison was a fighter who got too much too soon and stopped doing what he needed to do to keep progressing in his career.As you say Kevin,he lacked the discipline and didn't want to listen to the good advice his trainers,Tommy Virgets and John Brown,would give him.The Ray Mercer fight that you...

Dan Dickau had another nice game last night leading New Orleans to victory.He had 19 points and a whopping 16 assists.Now that Baron Davis is officialy on injured reserve Dan's playing time should continue to increase and so should his numbers.Scott Padgett had a good game for Houston last night...

These boxing threads are always being hijacked.They start out innocently enough with the main subject being Tommy Morrison then it turns into a pissing match about completely different fighters,throw in some name calling and personal jabs,and the original thread has been forgotten.I suggest...

Isn't this exactly what we have been talking about on this message board.The kid is athletic,he can run,he's an all-around athlete,but that is not good enough for the football factories,they need to make him intolinebacker.The typical position for a white RB coming out of high school.Forget...

Doesn't the referee in the first Andrew Golota pic look like Conan O'brien?

If you are looking for someone to cheer for on the Eagles Don,check-out Sam Rayburn their DT.He's not a starter but he gets good playing time and with the way some teams rotate their lineman non-starters can play a lot as well,so starting doesn't matter that much.Rayburn clogs the middle well...

This was Lewis'quote from the London Sunday Mirror"I've had to listen to a lot of rubbish from Klitschko and he is starting to get on my nerves.I'm making a comeback later this year.The money is up to 21 million pounds(U.S.$39.3 million)right now I simply can't turn that much cash down.I'm going...

George Chuvalo was born in Toronto,Ontario to Croatian immigrant parents.Trust me,I have seen George many times throughout the years and he is very white and very proud of his Croat background.

Hockey has always been a rough and violent sport.Whether those on that Larry Elder show or anywhere else like it or not,violence is part of the game,always has been.Players live by a macho code,rules of the jungle if you will.If one player does something illeagel to one player that other one...

The Art Tucker was really good and I was satified that Tommy had recoverd from his fight with Ray Mercer.I the remember the Tucker fight took place right around the time those police officers were aquitted of their beating of Rodney King,which started the L.A. riots.I was so pissed watching...

How could I have forgotten George Chuvalo.He was never knocked off his feet,never.I like the picture posted by jaxvid of Quarry-Lyle.I see some fear in those eyes of Lyle,and it reminds me of another Morrison moment when he fought Pinklon Thomas.The fight was held in Kansas City where Tommy...

If there was ever a fight that looked rigged it would have to be the secound Ali-Liston fight.This is my opinion.I have seen super slo-mo footage of that supposed invisible punch and Ali really does tag Liston and then proceeds to stand over him shaking his fist,not unlike plenty of black...

One good white heavyweight per decade seems about right,although I'd like to add one more name to the list of 70's fighters and that is Duane Bobick.Stop laughing.I'll admit Bobick left a lot to be desired as a pro,but as an amateur he had no peer.Duane was a National Golden Gloves champ,won the...

No doubt that Jerry Quarry was the best white American heavyweight in the past three decades or so.He didn't duck anyone and fought in an era where there were so many good fighters,many of which Jerry beat.His schooling of Ron Lyle might of been his best win.Jerry fought well in his first fight...

Nice game by Chad Lewis,he's got real good hands,but when did he become black?On every play he made he acted like a homey,even on the pass interference call in the fourth quarter he over-reacted like Terrell Owens would.He must have been practicing the past few weeks.Question.I'm assuming Steve...

Maybe you got a point.

I'm a huge fan of Morrison's.I rank him right up there as one my top three favourite athletes all-time.Number one is Guy Lafleur.Anyway,it was a real sad day when I found out Tommy had HIV.These days Tommy is doing fine,he is still married and believe or not is a father again.He was able to...

The NHL average attendance would be higher if weren't for the bottom feeder American teams.Shortly after the N.Y.Islanders championship run of the 80's there attendance dwindled and there was talk they could become no more.The Islanders are still around,but they are not thriving,just...

Don't forget Gil Fenerty got some decent playing time with the Saints back 15 years ago.Should have received plenty more,but that's how it goes.So you can have some strange things happening in New Orleans.

Lennox Lewis said that he is coming out of retirement and wants Klitschko in November.He claims to be tired of Vitaly's mouth and now he is going to shut him up.We shall see.Well guys let the grandstanding begin.

Dan Dickau had a big game last night,with a career high 27 points with 17 coming in the last quarter.Loved those two long range 3's at the end,particularly the one that gave New Orleans the win.It would be good if Baron Davis was out for the rest of the year so Dan could really shine and get his...

Bigunreal,I totally agree about running into a non-stereotypical black.It's cool and gives you hope,but it does not happen too much.As far as black leaders demanding better behaviour from their own,Bill Cosby said as much last year when he lambasted blacks ignorance and lack of verbal expresion...

Thereare a number of teams that don't draw 17,000 or anywhere close to that a night.Hockey does have their millionaires and they have owners whose teams lose millions every year.There are other sports that athletes make millions like nascar,golf and tennis whose performers are far more visible...

With some exceptions hockey is just not all that popular in the States.It always has been and always will be a Canadian game.There are so many sports that are head and shoulders above hockey in popularity.I wonder if anyone was even aware of the fact that the World Junior Hockey Championships...

Great to see the former Gonzaga alumnus doing well.
