Got a lil’ bit of computer time… so I thought it only fitting that I post an Australian take on sports (given that’s where I am at the moment)…
So, today’s top sports stories in Australia are:
-
How is the health of Test Cricket?… [The Age] Test Cricket versus the One Day Game…
-
Mitchell Johnson – loves a fight (cricket)… [The Age] Johnson loves a scrap – and look out Tait!
-
Tennis players face jail over match-fixing… [The Age] Absolutely. Tennis Australia & the Victorian Police open up a joint investigation…
-
Baseball in the US – it’s a rat-race, and the rats are winning… [The Age] Hopefully, changes will occur soon in MLB…
-
Melbourne flagged for a Super 14 team with Argentinean players? (rugby)… [The Age] The proposal is actually a hybrid team of players from Australia & Argentina…
-
Australia to face swimmer-exodus?… [Herald Sun] Britain’s throwing money at Australian swimmers to leave Oz…
-
Soccer/Football – World Cup Qualifiers: Pim to call up Europe-based players… [Herald Sun] This could get interesting… hopefully, they answer the call.
Having a pretty good trip thus far, tho’ it’s been VERY wet, and not so warm (what the hell happened to Summer?). Enjoy the picture of Nicky Whelan (only appropriate that we have a good Aussie girl up!)…
I don’t think we’ve had more than 2 days without rain for the past couple of weeks.
It’s been insane. Three days running of absolute DOWNPOURS. Today’s cloudy-ish, but I’m told (by the weather-guy) that it’s on the improve…
Well, after today, it will be clear skies for the next few days. And like I tell my wife, I’m always right – besides, I grew up in ‘Tornado Alley’, so I know what I’m talking about when it comes to the weather ;~)
