Successful punter must possess qualities of a professional sniper:

Discipline and cunning are the important qualities. Snipers do not (usually) roam around looking for people to shoot. [B]They do not shoot non-combatants, i.e. women and children, other unarmed persons, livestock, windshields, and houses, etc.[/B] The sniper is either alone, or with one to three other people, depending on the mission requirements. :an_light:[B][U]Taking shots at targets not worth shooting only increases the risks of being discovered, captured or killed.[/U][/B] [B][I]Discipline and patience[/I][/B] are essential qualities to have when faced with a shoot or not to shoot decision.

Why is all...

How about WBA +2-110? Probably the safest bet here 26th Dec 08LChelseavWBA2 - 015th Nov 08LWBAvChelsea0 - 34th Mar 06LWBAvChelsea1 - 224th Aug 05LChelseavWBA4 - 015th Mar 05LChelseavWBA1 - 030th Oct 04LWBAvChelsea1 - 416th Mar 03LWBAvChelsea0 - 226th Oct 02LChelseavWBA2 - 0 :cheers:

this is from Yahoo:

Like much of America, I suddenly find myself hating the Miami Heat. It's not so much that I want to hate them, it's more that I have no choice. I hate the Heat because of what I love.

I love gifted players who want to chase greatness, and so I hate the Heat. I hate the way LeBron James has chosen to be Gilligan instead of the Professor. At 25, James is far too young to back away from the challenge of trying to lead a team to a title, which is what he has done by...

Another no brainer

Rival coaches feel for Cleveland

By [COLOR=#0069aa]Marc J. Spears[/COLOR], Yahoo! Sports

LAS VEGAS ? Don Nelson stared at the flat-screen television. The [COLOR=#0069aa]Golden State Warriors[/COLOR] coach had come to the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino for a charity event to raise money for St. Jude Children?s Research Hospital. The night was also being used to honor [COLOR=#0069aa]Denver Nuggets[/COLOR] coach George Karl, but given Nelson?s interest in the TV, there was no denying who was the man of the moment.
Even some 2,300 miles away from Greenwich, Conn., all eyes were on [COLOR=#0069aa]LeBron James[/COLOR].

At the Beijing Olympics, where [COLOR=#0069aa]LeBron James[/COLOR] was surrounded by such talent and possibility, the [COLOR=#0069aa]Cleveland Cavaliers[/COLOR] began to lose their star to free agency. The beginning of his departure came in small moments on the daily bus rides through the city?s choking smog and bigger ones on the basketball court. Together, [COLOR=#0069aa]Dwyane Wade[/COLOR], [COLOR=#0069aa]Chris Bosh[/COLOR] and James kept talking about the summer of 2010, about the chance of a lifetime to chase championships and roll like a touring rock band.
And yet before Pat Riley?s free-agency vision for the [COLOR=#0069aa]Miami Heat[/COLOR] could ever be validated,...

"Finally tonight, a few words about championship rings. Just when did they become the all-important barometer of who does or doesn't count in sports? When did they supersede personal excellence or exemplary character as a standard of greatness?

I got to thinking about that the other night after the [COLOR=red][B]"self-anointed chosen one"[/B][/COLOR], LeBron James, embarrassed himself as he tried to make his decision to seek rings in Miami sound like a search for the Holy Grail. It's when he essentially admitted to placing a higher priority on winning than anything else.

LeBron's decision is typical of our immediate gratification era, but it...

All it took was a one-word answer for [B]Michael Jordan[/B] to settle the [B]Kobe Bryant-LeBron James[/B] debate. When he was asked at a basketball camp who the better basketball player was, Jordan simply said, "Kobe."

You can counter that Jordan's talent evaluations leave a lot to be desired. He did draft [B]Kwame Brown[/B], you know. But his reputation as the game's all-time greatest player speaks for itself. This is hardly a new revelation. When James won his...

As journalists across the country continue to cook up how the effects of LeBron James? "decision" will sizzle for years to come, you can add another item to the grill: building through the draft.
In covering the nonstop circus that was the John Wall draft sweepstakes, one of the points that new Washington Wizards owner Ted Leonsis mentioned repeatedly to reporters was that he wanted to build through the draft. Mind you, this was weeks ago before Miami?s new empire was erected so Leonsis? idea seemed noble and refreshing at the time.
Weeks later and...
