The gravel in your sporting ice cream.
“He’s thirteen, well done” – I’m downgrading my opinion of Michael Owen from boring to utter twat
Vijay Singh makes the most incredible ‘I’m going to go ahead and skip this one across the lake’ hole in one EVER, then wanders off
Everyone loves playing Jenga at the beach, but these nerds have added some impressive firepower
Ace Hockey goal – never thought I’d write those words, team
Check out this page on Stuff.co.nz, video with a massive white space underneath. Headline on the Stuff Sport homepage is ‘Nasty Rugby Fight’ (they left out the !!1! LOL! bit).
Is it:
A. A placeholder page, with little details like the where, when, teams involved and outcomes of the fight to follow soon?
B. A teaser for a damming expose of violence in sport in general and those imported from the west in particular and what this means for post-communist society in Eastern Europe?
C. A flimsy excuse to share video of a sweet fight?
*Easily* the most embarrassing thing I’ve ever heard. Coming soon to a Super 14 ground near you.
The old ‘pro driver makes passenger sick’ never gets boring. This week: Damon Hill.
Why not enjoy the Cricket this weekend with a refreshing beer, weeping, and a sick tomato?
Fan-made video for the brilliant ‘Re-Your Brains’.
I finally found some Lance Klusner video. I reckon LK is the prototype Sehwag in his willingness to go hard at anything, and make any kind of shot as long as it gets the ball to the boundary, fast.
The last ball in this clip has him hitting a back foot flat bat off drive to a short one on leg. Bonkers. Enjoy.
There wasn’t a dry eye in the house when Graeme Smith came out bat in Sydney with his broken arm, but Neil McKenzie isn’t impresesed by such heroics. In fairness, it seems Smith has some form in this area.
sportreview.net.nz tribute to nerds who upload their xbox moves to the Internet: here’s an amazing goal, a ball / face coming together, a player DYING (complete with loving replays), and a double slide tackle. I need to get my PlayStation out again.
This video is called ‘The worst football tackle ever?’ Yes. Yes, it is.
Think you know comedy? You haven’t been to comedy school.
* It’s been a cracking first week of the Stalkipedia, team, with stalks on Chris and Lance Cairns, Damien Martin, Frank Bunce, Jimmy Floyd Hasslebaink, Richie Richardson and Trevor Chappell added. Check out Farley’s encounter with Frank Bunce, it’s awesome – get in there.
Goalkeeper fuckup of the week – ball-boy’s the twist here
My bowling knowledge extends to the Big Lebowski but not much further – this guy DOES get deeply impressive sideways movement, though
VCR hack! I found a MySky HD box in the office toaster this morning
What happens now? I didn’t know it was loaded! You’re fired
Best. Commentator. Ever. ‘Pour some sugar on me!’. We need this guy for Black Caps v India NOW (but none of this).
This is like one of those ACC ads. For God’s Sake, Don’t Go To The Football And Fall Asleep. YOU WILL BREAK YOUR FACE!
Fight! Fight! Fight! Gannets, seals, dolphins and frickin’ sharks all gang up on a bunch of sardines. *Spoiler* – the sardines lose.
Just when you thought Britannia was cool – possibly NSFW (sex, violence, bad taste).
Yet another reason why I’ll never understand American Football – I could imagine Steve Walsh doing this.
You don’t want to play too much football there.
David ‘Bumble’ Lloyd, the Lancashire batsman, umpire, coach and pundit has an amiable, relaxed style and regularly comes up with *gems*, like ‘the fridge has opened, he’s flown like a gazelle!‘ in his broad Wallace and Grommit accent. As promised on Hadyn’s Field Theory, here’s more Bumble:
Spotting a stray heat spot
Pitch report from ‘Lords’. Listen for the dubious groundsman name
Utter gibberish. Catford?
The best one, though, is when someone nicks his lawnmower. I wouldn’t want to meet his George.
Wussiest. Hockey Fight. Eva. This guy looks like a frickin’ Emo missing out on a Chuck Taylor sale. I thought the NHL was meant to be big tough lumberjacks and that?
I would love to see the All Blacks medics get involved like this, maybe with a ball and all tackle on the line, or some off the ball action at ruck time.
Back at work? Not happy? Skive off with a few rounds of Test Catch Cricket. It’s no penguin toss, sadly.
Bunch of hipster-types go to Austin, Texas to ride track bikes with Lance Armstrong. He kicks their arse.
