I was really intrigued when I heard on NPR that it was going to be the 150th anniversary of the Civil War in 2011. This lead me to search for a few reenactments in the Southern California area. Even though I am from Georgia, I was never able to go see a reenactment in real [...]

As the Western Conference teams battle for playoff spots, here are a few games I have covered with the Phoenix Coyotes visiting Anaheim. It has been a really disappointing season for Anaheim, with a playoff spot from last year being only a memory. This season they have not been able to execute to their full [...]

The Seattle Sounders visited Chivas USA prior to the MLS Playoffs. It was pretty much over for the Chivas USA, but they always play with heart and passion. The Sounders were able to make it into the playoffs after this 3-1 win, but the talent schism is very prominent in MLS, similar to the NBA. [...]

This is a really good cause, but I believe it should not just be awareness of breast [...]

USC has won many games that came down to the final minutes of play during this past season, another example is with the Arizona Wildcats visited USC for a Pac-12 showdown. The game was offensively driven, with a lack of defense that resulted in USC winning 48-41. Here are a few photos I liked from [...]

The Pittsburgh Pirates were visiting a slumping club, the Los Angeles Dodgers. But, this series proved that the Dodgers could not be disregarded. They destroyed the Pirates during both games I covered. Here are a fe photos I liked from the two days. Los Angeles Dodgers catcher A.J. Ellis breaks his bat while at bat. [...]

I was pretty excited to be asked to cover the New York Yankees when they visited Los Angeles, but I was more excited by the timing of it. This was during the September 11th reunion. The Yankees have been giving hope to a state, and a country through their perseverance. It also gave hope to [...]
