Huh. I guess I chose the wrong goalie for my fantasy team from the Manchester match.

I was about to post a link to the All Blacks' victory, but here it is. It wasn't a pretty match, but it was great to see them win this.

Tebow looks absolutely awful. Worst performance I've ever seen by an NFL quarterback.

And then he drives down the field looking pretty good. I'm so confused.

Then he looks great in tying it up. What the hell is going on?

6-1, holy bags of oil money Batman! Three conceded in SAF time too. Of course Alex will not have been happy to see Clattenburg next to Referee on the game sheet.

My fantasy football team got beat today... ...30 points to 89... ...playing a guy who had TWO STARTERS WITH BYE WEEKS.
I hate football. Hate it, hate it, hate it.

Terrapin and I are neck n neck right now. Which proves what a jerk he is.

The same logic would see you supporting the Yankees, Real Madrid and the schoolyard bully.

I can get behind Real Madrid and the schoolyard bully, but I just can't support the Yankees. Two out of three ain't bad.

When discussing poor performances by NFL quarterbacks, we now can't neglect to mention the combined performance of Kyle Boller and Carson Palmer versus that stout, physical, ball-hawking KC Chiefs defense.

dyams, how can you call out Palmer who had a couple of practices maybe and then had to come in off the bench when the Chiefs' D had already gnawed off the Raiders O's will to live?

They weren't the best team in the final, but they still won.
