AGM Linebacker and I will bring the pain.


I'm a sports fanatic. I hail from Nelson County Virginia, and thats where I learned to be a Virginia Cavalier fan. I also learned to be a Dallas Cowboys fan because I hated how good the Redskins were doing. I've played sports at almost every level with the exception of being a fulltime professional, as a result I have a great perception on the sporting world. I love to talk sports and I've never been shy to share my opinion with someone.

Summer is Almost Over, But Walker's Rants Keeps Rolling on

The 2008 games have come to a close, and I have to say things went off without a hitch for the most part and that is good.  Too bad that even as smooth as the games were, they can’t possibly run as smoothly as Walker’s Rants. So with that being said let’s kick off another edition of our favorite weekly article.

The New York Giants lost their entire defensive line and they will struggle horribly this season.  A new line means a new defensive scheme…

No matter how hard they try, the Hurricanes are still stuck with knucklehead players…

The Olympics went well in China, but anyone who thought they will bring about some sort of political change is a fool…

Tom Brady’s foot is fine, but it is something that should be watched by the training staff…

The Colts will not win their division this year.  Peyton can’t adjust and upgrade the offense quick enough to overcome what will be a slow start…

The Michael Vick pit bulls have their own show on T.V. now?  That’s just crazy…

I’m so excited for college football season it’s not even funny…

It’s just sad that the U.S. Eagles cannot even be competitive against a side like Munster. I don’t care how great Munster is…

Matt Leinart lost his starting job due to his inability to play… shocking.  I could have told you that about the noodle armed kid when he was a senior at USC…

How is Sergio Garcia everyone’s bitch on the PGA tour?

Who will remember Michael Phelps come winter time?

The Redeem Team does not hold a candlestick to the Dream Team…

The Redeem Team should not be heralded as heroes.  They only did what they were supposed to do…

Jason Taylor is hurt.  MMmm looks like another wasted signing by the Washington Redskins…

Do yourself a favor watch both of the upcoming conventions.  November is going to be a very important month for this country I don’t care what party or ideal you believe in…

Could this be the year that Ricky Williams finally gets back on track?

Couldn't you say the Dream Team only did what they were supposed to do?

Now now Jut, you know those parties have too many ideals and principals to be considered real political parties.

I hate to say I told you so... :-(

As for basketball, the world is coming for you, slowly but surely. Now that the USA have finally got the desire to put everything into international basketball, there are higher standards for the rest of the world to push for. Spain and Lithuania are leading the European charge, and it'll be interesting to see how they do. It was interesting to see that the best players in the world only just beat a Spanish side where about half of it considered good enough to play in the NBA. Great Britain isn't leading that charge, but if you play us in 2012, you'll get an easy win.

Watch out for the 17 year old Spanish player though, Ribero, or something? A future NBA star beckons.

I had no doubt that Munster could beat the U.S.A. but as I've said to you before it does not make it okay or acceptable. I want a higher level of play from the U.S. and I will not settle for anything less.

Quite rightly. BigPPup, the time has come for you to go to the next level. You need to be in the gym 24:7 pumping iron. You need to pay top dollar to get European coaches to teach your team the "proper" way of playing rugby. The future of American rugby rests on your shoulders. No pressure then...

Phelps has staying power, not only because of 8, but because of those two epic races. In 20 or 30 years, when people are crowning a new greatest Olympian ever in the history of ever, Phelps is going to be the our ace-in-the-hole.
