Corrupt sports organisations run by money grabbing wankers – Olympics and FIFA

I know the title seems harsh but there are a lot of questions that the IOC and FIFA need to answer with regards to their corrupt practices.
IOC showed in Utah that they were bribable and the racist Jack Warner of CONCACAF showed that he was not averse to making money as a scalper and defrauding [...]

Women’s Soccer hoo-ha – bad game management all around and a chance for the media to get all self righteous

A certain video tape has been doing the rounds lately highlighting the behaviour of a Lobos player.

There is no doubt that her actions were outwith the laws of the game and should have been dealt with by the officials in accordance with the laws. But and it is a large but, [...]

Football (Soccer) a game played by hard athletes

Ever since I’ve moved to N America I’ve had to put up with the usual N American bias against real football.
“Oooh they dive.” “Oooh look he got a backhand and looks like he was shot.” You don’t need to know more because you all know what I’m talking about. Well what about this:

More welfare for rich folk 2010

VANOC has it’s grubby little hands extended yet again for more public money.
The public institutions funding this extra cash are refusing to give details on the whys and the wherefores and the Police in the area are practicing their extra legal activities for the Winter Olympics.
So the taxpayer is continuing to pay for the speculations [...]

Vancouver Winter Olympics – a waste of money and a threat to liberty?

Then I realised that is is the rich country’s olympics, where the country pays for the games and the men in suits get rich [...]

Casual throw-away lines have a habit of coming back to haunt you

The blog world is full of brave individuals who delight in their anonymity and use the confidence that this gives them to say stuff that they really don’t believe. While I use a psuedonym, I try and and keep what I say and my opinions based in reality. From now on I think I’m going [...]

Maradona – All style no substance (unless you mean cocaine)

A wee while back I cast doubts about the wisdom of the AFA to select Diego as the coach of the Argentine national team. He can’t run his own life let alone organise the huge egos that make up an international football team.
Their recent outing seems to confirm the worst for Argentina, they lost 6-1 [...]

Anti-French folk – could you do this? La La Rasputin.

Yup I have gotta go with Jim Dandy on this.

The guy is incredible, a monster without padding and a helmet and yes that is a back row and second row in the  All-Blacks.
For all the Americans and Canadian wingnuts who constantly disparage the French from the safety of their armchairs take [...]

Don Cherry demands class from someone else… haha way to help the rich with welfare

Wow really Don Cherry that hater of “Yurpeeens” demands that somebody shows some class. Wake up you idiot, if there is someone with less class than anyone else it is you. You pronounce nightly on complete crap and spout racist bollox and Ovetchkin has no class. Give me a break.
If a professional team is crap [...]
