    Every time I see Fergie nowadays, it looks as though his head's gonna explode... :shake:

    Personally, I'd like to see Kean-o manager, just for the look of fear on Rio Ferdinand's face! Not that that'd help, though; Man U's midfield is terrible, and w/o Heinze and G. Neville their defence is decidedly shaky. What happened to O'Shea, for heaven's sake? A couple of years ago, everyone was saying what a player he'd turn out to be, now he seems to have gone backwards. Bizarre.

    Well, hopefully Wigan and Spurs can continue to push Chelsea ( :lol: :shake: ), otherwise it's going to be an awfully short season as far as the Premiership title is concerned...

    I thought the match between Werder Bremen and Udinese was pretty spectacular too. Going into halftime with a comfortable 3-0 lead didn't give Werder much confidence, the Italians managed to score three goals within seven minutes. Werder still managed to pull out a 4-3 victory, but at some point they must have felt pretty helpless. :D

    Big weekend of sport this weekend. Friday night - NZ v SA Game 4, Saturday night - All Blacks vs Five Nations Champions Wales, Sunday night - NZ v SA Game 5.

    Man, I am going to get no sleep this weekend. Why do my two favourite teams have to be touring the other side of the world at the same time?

    Lakers win against the Denver Nuggets in overtime, Kobe Bryant hit the game winning shot! But then they lost against the Suns... Kwame Brown have to step up.

    Badger VB team won tonight, 3 games to 2, and the scoring was all over the place. Every game was close, and I'm gonna have an enormous headache in the morning from all that yelling, but for now I'm holding it off with a celebratory :beer: . Cheers!

    You expected different? It's Wales against the All Blacks mate. The AB's are the best team in the world by a mile right now. I expect a 30+ point margin come the end of the game.

    Another dangerous spear tackle from the AB's....

    41 -3 for the All Blacks over the Six Nations champions. The Grand Slam dream is still alive. Shame that Wales were missing some of their better players.

    NZ are 1-2 on to win the Tri-Nations, that seems like a good bet even at those odds...

    Next year's Tri-Nations? I can't believe the odds are out for that already.

    Australia VS Great Britain now, let's see if we can do better here after we got pretty much outplayed last week.
    All this different rugby stuff confuses me something chronic!!!

    No this years, the one that's happening now. NZ are top of the table at minute... why next years??

    Ah right. I thought we were still talking about the All Blacks. Australia will win the Rugby League tri-nations so any money bet on anyone else is a mug's bet. That's why Rugby League will never be as interesting as Rugby Union because there is no genuine international competition. The Rugby League World Cup is a complete joke because there is only one team with any chance of winning and only 3-4 who are any use at all. When Great Britain have to split back into the home nations they become rubbish.

    Impressive. The Leafs managed to beat Tampa, the defending Stanley Cup champs.

    If only they had signed better players, they'd be doing much better.

    Oh well. Go Leafs!

    [​IMG] Looks like the Packers are well on their way to throwing yet another game; I just hope the high draft pick is worth it. :rolleyes:

    Watched a bit of soccer today on the French sports channel, guys in dark blue shirts versus guys in green shirts (I can't figure out the names! :lol: ). Must be my inability to understand most of the language (especially when spoken so fast) that makes it easier to pay attention to the game.

    Won the 6th ODI against SriLanka. 5-1 now.
    Sehwag is still an idiot with the bat. Swings it like it were an axe.

    Of course, a man with an average of 55+ is an idiot with the bat...!!??

    He's one of the worlds best batsmen right now, incredibly aggressive but really talented, the perfect foil for Sachin.
