– Cartman introduces the University of Colorado starting line up – this is great. There ought to be more obnoxious cartoons introducing teams. We DO have Stu Wilson, I suppose
– Grandstand fight – Super smooth Des Lynham carries on like a pro despite handbags ensuing in the background
– Shortest hockey fight ever? – some very swift work there. There’s been a lot of fighting in me links lately

– I miss Soccer AM – Saturdays just aren’t the same without a soul-sapping hangover and football related hilarity – check these out.
– The more I think about it, Ajax may be my ‘other’ team. Cruyff. Van Basten. Nice football. Cool kit. Dutch. Stuff like this. What’s not to like?
– A Dan Carter conversion straight out of Sensing Murder
– I’m listening to CCR lately. If you haven’t heard Ramble Tamble. Have a listen, it’s the most rockin’ song of all time, don’t you know.

– Manchester City News – the more I watch this, the more hilarious it becomes. And the more I worry about my lack of humour development since age 12
– Sportsfreak on Michael Hussey – they’re right, you know, he’s boring his way into history
– Stephen Fry’s Dork Talk – everyone’s fav foppish wordsmith is a Mac guy, and he’s writing a gadget review column for the Guardian. Who would have thought?
– Norman Mailer fight – here’s a bizarre scene from his improvisational movie Maidstone where Rip Torn decides to take artistic direction into his own hands. Mailer died this week

Sorry, team – blog motivation is low at the moment. I’ve got a good mind to get my other one going again…
– The best 5-a-side goal ever – bloody hell, that’s some skill. The ‘keeper has no idea whatsoever, and looks like Mike Gatting facing the ball of the century
– Chuck Klosterman on the NBA – not my favorite sport, but one of my favourite writers
– Hostel’s Eli Roth’s 24 hours of Horror – does anyone want to do this?
– That One Bob Guy And Why He Can Go Fuck Himself – I love this

– Fido trailer – a Zombie in every home. WHEN does this come out in NZ?
– Denis Leary gives Mel Gibson a verbal beatdown – nice. Poor old Mad Max, first the Malibu mansion, now this
– The prince of own goals – This is magic. This is still my favourite own goal ever, though, just ‘cos it’s Arsenal, and a member of George Graham’s back four.
– Ryan Giggs, 7 gives his first TV interview – his media minder is Alex Ferguson, 16

– The Back Up – Yes, this would be great for a boring old home invasion, but in the event of an infestation of reanimated corpses… THAT’s when this little beauty would come into its own
– Here’s the video of that guy speeding through Paris in a Ferrari 275 – Wicked. As always, Wikipedia has the full story

– Zombo.com – shut down the internet, NO site is going to top this one (needs sound)

– Sebastian Chabal steals a dog’s lunch – magic. Why is the dog called ‘Springboks’ though?

– Matt le Tissier free kick – cool as you like

– Some muppet tries to tackle a goal kicker and knocks himself out – this is the greatest thing ever. The best bit is the tacklee doesn’t even notice – AND he sticks the kick
– Johan Cruyff – best first touch ever? – wow, that’s some skill. Bonus link – here’s my fav (non-spurs) goal ever, by another Ajax legend. My fav spurs goal is probably this one. Or this one. Or this one.
– The Times’ Serious Football Writer Brian Glanville’s top 50 football moments – nice list, he picks a whole lot of stuff from the olden days, just to prove he’s a Serious Football Writer, though

– Ronny Rosenthal misses a sitter – and what a sitter. Luckily, he did it for the bin dippers, and not Spurs
– The most rockin song of all time – is Credences’ ‘Ramble Tamble’ apparently. And it’s pretty bloody good. I’ve got a soft spot for ‘Keep your hands to yourself’ by Georgia Satellites myself. Or the Ramones’ ‘Rockaway Beach’
