A Great Album from Rock's Greatest Band!

Fri, 4 Jan 2008 23:22:35 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author sportsweek - I must preface this review by acknowledging I am an unabashed fan of the band. Unfortunately more has been written about how this album was released than the music itself. While the direct "pay as you wish" strategy employed by the band is fascinating...

Step Away From the Golf ball . . . Nothing to See Here

Mon, 23 Jan 2006 14:16:38 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author sportsweek - I received a dozen Dunlop Loco for Christmas (I guess my uncle kept the 2 free sleeves for himself) and recently decided to use them at my local club. The ball itself was fine for the first 3 holes. In fact I was actually a bit impressed that it felt...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author sportsweek - My Wife and I Purchased a GMC Envoy XUV last December and I have grown to love it so much I had to share my satisfaction with all of you. First the specs from GM. . . The most adaptable SUV ever — it adjusts to any lifestyle. Standard Vortec...

Hello . . . Looks like my handicap will be moving down!

Mon, 9 May 2005 12:48:17 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author sportsweek - I'd been thinking lately of purchasing a new driver as I've garnered a "short knocker" reputation of late as all my friends consistently outdrive me with their oversize drivers while I've stuck it out as long as a could with my regular sized King Cobra...

The Latest New York Band!

Tue, 21 Sep 2004 13:05:05 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author sportsweek - Isn't it great to see New York's music scene finally burgeoning into greatness? From The Strokes to the Walkmen, from Yeah Yeah Yeahs to Interpol there really are some great things going on musically in the big apple. The most recent album I had a...

American Beauty, or American Tragedy?

Mon, 21 Apr 2003 20:21:18 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author sportsweek - I have rarely viewed a film that works on so many levels simultaneously. From the title itself, multiple meanings melt into one coherent whole. The film`s detractors point out single scenes, like Carolyn's house selling scene, but this is like focusing...

Been There Done That

Fri, 18 Apr 2003 03:26:24 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author sportsweek - I certainly hope that this is not where American Rock music is heading. Much like everyone copied Nirvana when they burst on the seen in the late 80's, All-American Rejects(AAR) is just cashing in on the current trend of today's wannabe punksters...

The White Stripes are Improving . . . I was hoping for more

Fri, 18 Apr 2003 02:36:42 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author sportsweek - With the followup to White Blood Cells, what's next, Red Blood Cells or Platelets? Actually, it's Elephant, with features a kind of refined sound in some spots. They maintain their basic stripped down sound, even putting a disclaimer on the liner notes...

Paving the way for "Alternative Pop"

Sat, 12 Apr 2003 12:10:52 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author sportsweek - I must start this review by stating that Bauhaus is in my top 5 of all-time favorite bands. I have always loved the name bauhaus for a band as it symbolized that they were paving the way for a new form of music, much as bauhaus architecture paved...

Grand Theft Auto: Vice City for PlayStation 2: Gore, Sex, and Violence in a Video Game . . . Read all about it!

Thu, 10 Apr 2003 01:31:33 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author sportsweek - Welcome to Vice City, home of the 1980s! Complete with the look and feel of the time in both monuments and fashion sense, not to mention music that helps me garner many and many a flashback while driving in my vehicular portion of nostalgia down those...

Just Short of Great, but Pretty Darn Good.

Mon, 7 Apr 2003 00:47:26 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author sportsweek - It's hard not to like Coldplay. Ever since they burst on the scene a year ago with the wonderfully assured "Parachutes," they have won legions of followers with their heartfelt songs, beautiful melodies, and just all-round refreshing musicianship. With...

Radiohead Does it Again!

Sat, 5 Apr 2003 19:41:01 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author sportsweek - After a mere eight months, Amnesiac is finally released. It's easy to compare the album to Kid A in that the two albums were recorded in the same session. The main difference, however, between these two unbelievable albums is that Amnesiac is a whole lot...

A Revolutionary Work of Art!

Sat, 5 Apr 2003 19:31:34 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author sportsweek - Radiohead have produced an album which goes totally against the grain. Although it is not the most accessible of albums to start with this is compensated for many times over by its endurance as a record that will stay with you for the rest of your days...

MVP Baseball 2003 for PlayStation 2: Best baseball sim yet! Still a few minor flaws though.

Fri, 4 Apr 2003 02:37:30 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author sportsweek - In short, this game delivers as promised, a complete overhaul of the way baseball games have been played. What you would expect from the makers of Madden Football. The highest recommendation (from someone who plays all 162 games each year!)

What is boomslang? Who Cares, this is good stuff!

Fri, 4 Apr 2003 02:22:53 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author sportsweek - Johnny Marr. The name is synonymous with guitar god. When The Smiths called it quits in 1987, it caused a widespread depression that swept across the alternative music world like few band breakups ever could. (Imagine U2 breaking up right after recording...

rrrriiinnnng . . . rrriiinnnggg . . . . scared yet?

Thu, 3 Apr 2003 16:02:03 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author sportsweek - The good news is that there are several images in this movie that are truly frightening. Having said that, the rest of the movie undermines those images. The trouble is not with the acting, editing, cinematography, etc. The trouble is with the story...

Fri, 2 Nov 2001 16:48:17 GMT

Madden NFL 2002 for PlayStation 2: That Guy Got Hit So Hard He's Lucky His Head's Still Attached to His Body!

Wed, 5 Sep 2001 00:59:09 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author sportsweek - Like a right of passage at the end of each summer I anxiously await the latest version of Madden Football from EASports. For me this started probably 15 years ago when Tecmo Bowl for Nintendo was the latest and greatest. I remember the first "Madden"...

Yahoo! Fantasy Football: Down . . . Set . . . Pizza . . . Hut,Hut!

Sat, 11 Aug 2001 22:18:12 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author sportsweek - Ahhh, it's almost here! The time of year when Men start to naturally become less interested in women and more interested in 325 pound behemoths with lots of hair and tatoos. Ladies and Gentleman . . . ARE YOU READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL ???

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author sportsweek - My little girl Kate will turn two next month and I recently purchased her second set of golf clubs. I've said all along I'm not going to pressure her into anything, she can be absolutely anything in the world that she wants to be . . . A...

Finally, a Balata ball where you don't have to sacrifice distance!

Tue, 26 Jun 2001 16:48:54 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author sportsweek -

Let me start this epinion by saying that I'm probably not a good enough golfer to regularly use Balata balls as the type of ball doesn't have much have an effect on "duck hooks," "slices," and "worm-burners" that I often hit. However, being...

An Average, Mass Produced, Beer Masquerading as a Premium Beer

Fri, 25 May 2001 14:46:34 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author sportsweek -

I've grown quite tired of these Heineken commercials that make their beer out to be this incredible high quality beer. I think of all the people out there who drink Heineken, pay a much higher price, and are fooled into thinking they are...

Ohh the Fights You Can Have . . .

Sun, 13 May 2001 14:07:00 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author sportsweek - Let me start this epinion by saying I have a love and hate relationship with this game. I'm going to assume that most of you know how to play as it's one of the most popular board games ever invented but if you've just moved to Earth from Mars here's a...
