Why does my site scroll from side to side?

Just started playing with this: http://www.shadowsportspicks.com/

Still have a lot of work to do, but I can figure out why it slides right and left on smaller screens, even though the content isn't that wide.

Any thoughts? Thank you!

redesign the layout to be a fluid/liquid design.

Although having a table set to greater than 100% won't help much

<table width="112%" ...

re-designing the layout to be fluid/liquid is not my expertise, how hard is it... I bought this template some time ago but don't recall it having this issue...

do you see the same problem?

Thank you very much by the way
