For an expansion team..Las Vegas proved to be sinfully good

I don’t know what word to use. Shocked, stunned. amazed, flabbergasted. Any one of those adjectives could be used to describe Sunday’s playoff game between the Las Vegas Sin and the LA Temptation. The game started with a great Sin video. Before I get to the game, let me vent a bit. The LFL is [...]

What’s more Fabulous than the Sin City Roller Girls

Before I found my love of all sports, there was Roller Derby. As a kid, it was the greatest spectacle on earth. Men and women skating around while hitting one another. I couldn’t skate, and hitting got me in trouble, so Roller Derby was heaven. I can still remember when one of the Derby ladies [...]

The Las Vegas Sin aren’t LA-cking, and they plan on LA-mbasting the Temptation

LFL Playoff action is almost here.. Just a one more day before the Las Vegas Sin do battle in Ontario against the LA Temptation. The Sin worked over the Temptation 28-20 in November. The Sin were a perfect 4-0 in the regular season, punctuating that perfect mark with a 30-0 shellacking of the Green Bay [...]

Kickin’ it with the Las Vegas Knights–indoor soccer at it finest.

I can vividly remember watching the 2010 World Cup with a bunch of friends at the MGM Grand. We were disappointed in the United States ouster, but the crowd was electric. People were screaming, hugging, and arguing about their favorite teams. Just being in that atmosphere, it made me wonder as to why people get [...]

Come on, Wing it..Only 2 more chance to qualify for Wing Bowl 3

The final 2 Wing off qualifiers take place over the next 6 days. The first one is on the 25th at the Shelbourne Lodge. The last one is on February 1st, at Mangos (Not the 28th, like I reported earlier). Check my calendar for a map to these places. If you are wondering, I have [...]

LVSPORTZ: Home to youth sports in Las Vegas

If you read my blogsite, you have noticed I don’t cover a lot of youth sports. Since there is one of me, I don’t feel I could give the proper time to the wide ranging youth sports here in Las Vegas. I can’t tell you how happy I am to learn that there is a [...]

It’s chill…Sin lay a beat down on Green Bay

From Dale Jarrett, to the Blackjacks, and finally the Las Vegas Sin. It’s been a full day of sports for me. In a rather shocking chink in the schedule, the undefeated Las Vegas Sin played their first game since November 11th. If you are like me, and are sometimes smart, that equals out to a [...]

21 equals blackjack, that’s about how many people showed for Blackjacks tryout day #2

After leaving the Dale Jarrett Driving Adventure, I headed over the Las Vegas Sports Park to check out the Sin City Blackjacks. It was the 2nd, and final tryout camp for the new professional football team here in Las Vegas, has come and gone. The Sin City Blackjacks were/are looking for the best Las Vegas [...]
