Athlete of the Week Archive

| Marathoners who stepped up on Monday | Chabot | It's hard enough to run 26 mi 385 yards, but it's tougher still to train in New England in brutal winter months only to find temps on Patriots' Day coming close to record highs. Hats off to anyone who took that first step in Hopkinton yesterday, finishing or not. | Phil Mickelson | B. Hogan | Master's Victory gets the major monkey off his back. | Jarrett Jack | Barry Roos | Next great point guard in the NBA. Leadership, Guts and Poise under pressure. | Barry Bonds | P. Chabot | It takes extraordinary athletic ability to look a reporter or camera in the eye and, without so much as a giggle or even crack of a smile, announce that he has never taken steroids. For that talent alone, he gets my nod for Athlete of the Week. Or is it just that he wants to be smiling but those muscles are just too big now, so they don't even move? | Barry Bonds | P.

Manning will be having Ty Law induced nightmares for quite a while. | Patriot Fans | Antonio Huevas | Anyone sick enough to go to tonights patriot's game! | Pete and Sharyn Chabot | Yitshak McCarthy | How tough are these 2 super fans? While most fans were sitting all toasty on their couches (me included) they went down to "The Blade" and rooted for their team. They deserve the UWriteSports wing man of the week award. Prize: a haircut and color from Dave's hairdresser | Josh Beckett | Barry Roos | 3 days rest... Complete Game... Shutout... MVP... 'nuff said.... |
