On top of there being a massive Typhoon passing through, the Wallabies got knocked out of RWB 07 yesterday. Perhaps the most annoying thing is that I still haven’t had a chance to watch the game.. It’s fair game when there isn’t a Typhoon passing through, I can travel into the city and watch games live in a pub, but when you’re housebound don’t count on any sport on TV bar Baseball..
Now I like MLB as much as the next man (watched the Boston Red Sox y’day and they definitely look the goods for winning the Championship) , but the way that they repeat games 3 or 4 times is just ridiculous. Perhaps its the media-critic in me, but the fact that ‘only’ baseball exists is a little closed minded.
Back to results, the Wallabies got ‘done’ again, and even worse the Kiwis got knocked out.. If ever there was a good chance for the Aussies to becomes the first team to win 3 World Cups, this was it.The Kiwis were red-hot favourites, and now the door is wide open for France, South Africa and England..My outside hope is Argentina, but also hoping Fiji (who impressed against Wales) are a chance.
Been watching ‘Caddyshack’ over the weekend, you remember that golf comedy with Chevy Chase (whatever happened to him?). Well apart from bringing back nostalgia of the old day 80s comedies, it also brought back Jackie Mason. You remember him, that ‘nebish’ Jersey comedian? I never realised quite how funny he is, I was literally laughing my way through the whole movie..
