No voice after all the sport....

My Aussie Rules team, the Essendon Bombers, is out of the finals after getting thrashed by their mortal enemy, Carlton Blues. I spent most of the match yelling at the white maggots (umpires).

Then the two Aussies in the F1 race at Monza were out in the first lap....but I had fun barracking for the two pommies who got 2nd and 4th.

Then the Baggies bet Norwich,..who don't look comfortable in the Premier league and should make way from the return of Birmingham. Too bad about the Wolves.

Didn't have much to yell about when the Aussies thrashed Italy in the World Rugby but I was shocked at how bad England played against Argentina. England won but it was not very convincing.

My fragile voice was completely lost after watching Aussie Samantha Stosur THRASH Serena Williams to win the final of the American Open. I have never seen such power on the forehand from a woman tennis player.

I have to sit and watch the British Superbike races now. Josh Brookes, the Aussie racer with a chance to win the championship, is constantly booed by the British crowd so I hope he wins just because I can't stand bad losers. In my almost 50 years of attending motorcycle racing I have never seen a rider booed.

There are advantages to being an unemployed slacker. No need to worry about work getting in the way of my couch potato lifestyle!

That's one of the joys of forum life, you can SHOUT without hurting your voice. :grin:

I can't say I was too sorry about Wolves :grin: but you're right about the appalling England performance in the RWC. Of all the home nations only Wales performed well - and they lost :roll: Never mind, the tie at the Oval gives us the ODI series, that might boost us up the rankings a bit, heaven knows we need it. If the weather keeps off I'm going to see the first day of the match at Taunton today, not that it means much to Somerset but Lancashire need a good win.

There is a plus though

The other half is retiring in November so I got him evrey sport channel on sky with hd box upgrade and 1tb recorder

It's a good way of keeping them off the street and from under your feet.
