Kangoo Jumps...

I first saw this at the Go Sports store in Dubai’s Mall of the Emirates. I really had no clue what they were and why there were so many damn shoes on the wall. It reminded me of those jumping shoes and people could go flying. I was just passin through to check out some shoes, and whne I saw this huge wall of shoes I was curious as to what they were.

Turns out these are rebound excercise shoes used in excercising, fun, rehabilitation, weight loss, atheletic training, and a few other different physical activities. The one thing that it does which I find amazing is that it reduces the wear on your ankles, knees, lower back, and spine by 80%. That is the reason I use an elyptical because it reduces the stress on my knees but these are amazing if they can do that. It does look funny jumping around in these shoes while running or excercising at home or out in the open.

It can be used in the gym, on a dirt path, at home, in the garden, basically anywhere you want to go.

49er Pounding...

49erssackdilfer.jpg

It seems it just wasn’t there game this weekend, the 49ers got the game handed to them from the Sea Hawks. Out of all the teams, I was hoping they could put up a good fight and maybe beat the Seattle Sea Hawks but they didn’t have a chance from the start of the game.

The Seahawks defense crushed Alex Smith from the beginning of the game with the full weight of their defense end. So now the Quarter Back of the 49ers won’t be able to play the next game of his injured shoulder. Frank Gore tried to put up a fight for this game, but he had a few fumbles as well. The replacement QB Trent Dilfer had a difficult time dragging the 49ers out of the slump in this game. The Seahawks just kept playing better at each turn, and Julian Peterson (An Ex-49er and one of my favorite players when playing for the 49ers) sacked the 49ers QB three times, he was playing with a point to get across and he is good at what he does.

I hope they will be able to do something about the next game, this is going to be tough.

NFL Back-On...

This is week 2 of the NFL line up and things are going to be interesting since there are a lot of interesting line-ups for this year. I’m really looking forward to the 49ers this season, I think they have a good chance of making it to the play-offs. I don’t expect them to win but I think they will put up a good fight, their first game they were barely able to make it. The defensive line is much better then last year, but the offensive line needs a lot of work. I think now they are going up and it is a good working progress. Can’t wait to watch my nightly NFL on Sunday.

The 49ers are making it through, and they are surprising people at this point. The only thing I can say for a team that I love is that they are doing well. Alex Smith as a QB has improved, he isn’t making that many more completions but he is making less mistakes so he isn’t handing the opposition the ball. Frank Gore is playing hard even after the death of his mother, I have a lot of respect for him as a player. The defensive line did a good job of stopping the Ram’s offense but still our offense is lacking, we made it by a sliver this time. I hope our winning streak continues, the 49ers are now 2-0

Superbowl XLI Recap...

nfl_a_manning2_412.jpg

This has been one hell of a game!

It was worth not sleeping, I’m a complete zombie at this point but I was on the edge of my seat throughout the game. It wasn’t swinging one way or another but it was one hell of a hard fought game.

There was no clear winner in the begging, with a touch own return at the kick-off it was insane! The rain affect the game completely, because there were so many turnovers. Manning I have to say didn’t perform perfectly but the Colts did stay calm throughout the game. The Bears didn’t put too much pressure offensively and their were mistakes that were made and I don’t know they were leading at the end of the first half.

With the interceptions they just kept taking the ball back flying and getting a touch down for the Colts. The Defensive team of the Colts put the pressure on the Bears they figured their rhythm and kept on pushing. Their were some throws from the Bears which gave the Colts the ball, and the Bears lost two balls at the snap which shouldn’t have happened twice. The rain had a huge affect on the game, but the Colts kept pushing at it and the Bears didn’t perform at 100% but it was still a huge effort for the Colts to get it. It was a combination of the running game and passing game which helped them win.

One hell of a game and the Colts deserves it, they worked hard for it.

Super Bowl XLI...

Super Bowl XLI — Sun., Feb. 4 at 6:25 p.m. ET on CBS

Kuwait time: Monday morning at 2:25 am.

They usually play on Orbit’s sports channel.

I am contemplating VERY much to get up and watch this game! This is going to be one hell of a game! The Chicago Bears vs. the Indianapolis Colts! The Bears going in as underdogs! There is no clear winner, but a lot of people are putting their money on Payton Manning, but I am HUGE fan of Brain Urlacher. Urlacher has helped his team fight, and he is has strong character and doesn’t give up. The Colts have had a bumpy season to say the least, they had a good start but it didn’t look clear towards the end. They beat the Patriots to get to the Superbowl, and they were beaten by them in 05′ and 06′. The Bears defense is key to this game, so there is no clear winner between these two great teams.

This is going to be a hell of a game. I can sleep another day, but the Superbowl is only on one day.

49ers Not Bad...

alexsmith.jpg

I have to say that I’m happy as hell for the 49ers! They have turned things around from last time and are doing a better job then when they started off.

They are number 2 in the NFC West, and they are currently at 6 -8 which is what I was asking for which was 6 to 8 wins and they got it at last and I really think the team has matured and have an idea where they want to go at this point. There has been a few set backs, injuries, and changes in their strategy but I think they have found their way at this point. There are two more games left but I’m happy with the current results. I’m just hoping for an even better season next year since they got some yards under their belt.

49ers
6W – 8L

49ers Move...

Now this is an interesting turn of developments! 49ers are leaving Candlestick Stadium in San Francisco and moving to Santa Clara.

I really just hope its true! I love the 49ers and I used to live in Santa Clara, the new stadium would literally be down the road from me! It would just be fantastic! Tailgating would be so much easier! This gives me even more of a reason to visit! hehehe!

Thanks Yazeed for the link!

49ers Season...

49ers.gif

This is the current standing of the 49ers:
2W – 5L

What I wanted for this season is 6 to 8 Wins showing that the teams Offensive capabilities have improved.  That is all I was asking for, I wasnt really expecting them to compete with the top level teams of this season, I really just wanted them to put up a good fight. But things have not really gone the way I expected, the games versus San Diego and Chicago destroyed the 49ers, it hurt to watch the game. I had to stop in both games because it was a massacre.

The offensive team has improved, but we lost our key players in the Defensive side such Ahmed Plummer, and Julian Peterson. I was a huge fan of Julian Peterson! He was an extremely enthusiastic player, and Plummer would cover the back really well. We lack in safeties and it shows. They need to work on the Defensive team and help rebuild it. The Offensive team is improving and I got my hope with Alex Smith hoping his skills will develop with the team. Im going to be watching the games tonight.
