NOBODY watching the Sharapova match?!? 120F+ on the court, third set 9 - 8! Hell, even the men's matches were shut down because of the heat. Sharapova breaks to serve it out! 3:22 minutes! Longest match so far in the hottest day so far!

Serena certainly rolled her opponent. Only took her about an hour as well. 6:1;6:2.

Cricket? Why, that is just a little bug. Do you race them or rate them on how loud they chirp or something?
Yes. I think Venus is done. 33 years old (I know it because my little bro was born a few days after her), = over the hill. I saw the replay and am surprised she even took a set.

...just saw your post about watching the CFL. Have you heard of Zach Collaros. I think(?) he plays for the Toronto Argonauts. I don't think he started the season but I know he started a couple of games due to injury. (quarterback). I think he had a couple of good games but I haven't heard anything since. He was the quarterback for Steubenville Big Red (Ohio Highschool) going 30 - 0 as a starter with back to back state championships. Local hero of course. I saw him play his last game in college in Pittsburgh. Come from behind victory over the homestanding Pitt Panthers. Great game.
...any thing you can tell me?

Ok. interesting. MX is no where near as good on the road so your game should be half decent.
I dont like NFL either, but I do watch the CFL. some fairly significant rule differences. still more time spent not playing than playing though. |

Yup, definitely sounds like something El Tri fans would do (most huge fans of soccer teams, really). Have fun at the next game!

Yep, trolling hard out Vail lol! Was especially bad during the game this morning, and it's continuing O.o acting like we are super sucky cos we lost 5-1 to them - um could it be because we are ranked 79th and they are ranked 24th? Not like it's much of a comparison. The game in Wellington next week should still be fun.

saw the Maori all blacks play a canadian team a week or so ago. we didnt do so well, but it was interesting. havent watched any rugby in years now.

Mind you the NZ Maori All Blacks (Maori are our indigenous people) played the USA on the weekend and it was an excellent game, the Eagles played very well!
The good thing about NZ being in this position is they have nothing to lose, so whatever happens happens lol. I have heard Mexico have been dreadful lately, but all you can go by is the one game. All that matters is what happens on the day. It's funny, Mexican fans are trolling the All Whites (the name of our soccer team, cos they wear a white uniform) facebook page, but because most of them are posting in Spanish (rather than the rest posting in ok english, or google translate english lol) no one knows what they're on about lol.

Personally, I'm don't have much hope in Mexico winning this playoff. But then again, weirder things have happened at the Azteca. Seriously, just how stinkin' lucky (or maybe unlucky) can they get with getting this far in their current condition?
Say, does the NZ soccer team do that whole pre-game Maori war dance/chant thing like the All Blacks do? That'd be cool to see. It would definitely scare the crap out of El Tri.

Getting nervous, tomorrow is the first of two 2014 World Cup qualifiers between NZ and Mexico! Tomorrows game is at the Azteca, so it's going to be a big game for our boys but I am hoping they pull something out of the bag. We'll be at the second match next week in Wellington, can't wait.

By some stroke of good luck, one local channel showed some of the Rugby World Cup matches a couple of years ago. It ain't easy to forget such an unusual (and awesome) pre-game ritual. Sadly, I don't think rugby will catch on here. 'Murican football still rules the weekend morning/afternoon TV timeslots. The same channel that showed those rugby matches is currently showing some Premier League matches, so not all is lost.
The Mexican fans are trolling the All Whites FB page?!?!? HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
