A New Record

Oh when the Saints Oh when the Saints.......

Bike Weekend

The Australian Moto GP has come and gone for another year. Casey took it home for the local crowd but sadly too many crashes this season meant that Rossi won the championship even before coming to Oz. For my KL friends a pic of the bike parking:

As you can see there were thousands of "real" bikes at the track and the island for the weekend. The mat rempit would be amazed ! My friend and neighbour Russell has got his bike newly painted and it looks great. It is the forerunner of the modern boxer engined BMW's like mine.

Devastated

I just can't believe it, we should investigate the lineage of the spanish referee as that was an unfair decision in my view, we outplayed the Italians by far. Australia looked the best they have for the whole world cup only to have it stolen like that.

Well done Australia you can now add football to your list of sporting achievements.....

*sigh through clenched teeth*

In Case You Missed It

Our honorary Aussie friend Alwyn insisted I blog about the game last night.

A picture paints a thousand words..............

Bhangracise

I think this
is brilliant, we have had aerobics, step, boxercise, tai bo and now Bhangra dancing. Bollywood is truly having an impact on the world.

Thanks SV for the tip.

Hard Work Pays Off

Vijay Singh has shown that hours of hard work and perserverance can pay off when he claimed the number 1 spot in golf this week. Tiger had held it for 264 weeks in spite of Vijay already topping him on the money list a while back. I always liked Vijay's work ethic and even the pro's are awed by the time he spends on the driving range when he is not on the course. I read somewhere that he works out for three hours, seven days a week.

Will be fun to see if this finally sparks Tiger into playing back at his top level. I have thought for a while that he has so much money that he has lost the edge he started with. Now that he has been proven human he has also lost a lot of that pyschological edge he always had with the competition.

Of course Vijay no longer needs the money either (he has won over USD25M in his career) and like all top sportspeople these days I always wonder what they do with their money that they have to keep going out to play ? Is it the thrill of winning or the lure of memmon that keeps them going ? Is the thrill of winning not a form of self worship ?

What do you think folks about this big business called sport and where does it sit in God's kingdom ?
