The Best Of Sport, The Worst Of Sport

Not that I was especially bothered either way which city got the 2012 Olympics - it's not as if I am going to compete there when I am err 36, but for SOME reason I got a real charge out of London getting it over the French. Maybe it is because Jacques Chirac has become even more of a wanker the last few weeks LOL. Should be a good G8 summit between those two - add in Vladimir Putin, who thought the bid was so important he gave his first ever English language speech (those times spent training the Stasi in East Berlin obviously came in useful for something LOL), and George Bush, who probably thinks that the US can still have its very own Olympics in New York in 2012, perhaps inviting Afghanistan and Iraq, and there will be hardly any time at Gleneagles for Africa, climate change or farm subsidies LOL.

Maybe Paris 2016? Have the fun of the winter nominations for 2014 to look forward to now.

Aargh, Queensland got annihilated in the State of Origin, 36 to 10, and it was only the last ten minutes where we actually did any good. I am much more a rugby union boy nowadays, and I will get over this sense of impotent frustration after a good night's sleep, but grr grr grr, it was a pathetic display for sixty minutes - worse than the Lions were in the test in Christchurch, yes that bad LOL.

Later taters
