Rugby League's Challenge Cup Final is tomorrow: Castleford vs. Leeds.
-
I don't know for certain, but I think there was some kind of unpleasantness going on in the world between '39 and '45.
-
That first one reminds me of Leslie Nielsen in the Naked Gun. Goddamn, that umpire milked that call.
-
Is the match against the Lake Monster still floating around? That was a masterclass.

St. Helens squeak through to the 6th round of the Challenge Cup, 16-17, last minute drop goal after Danny Brough had three charged down, got his fourth attempt up in the air, went up, and the referee decided he'd missed it. Match also featured Brett Ferres getting sent off for what looked to me like a Karelin Lift on Johnny Lomax.
On the downside, the Crusaders got spanked by Fev. Boo-urns.

Yankees/Red Sox game delayed by bees in left field.
I'm told this is what happened.

I always had a soft spot for Hashi, but damned if I could ever explain why.
Hey ho, he was better than Marufuji.

Watch out for a guy with a Red Dragon flag and an old-style Barbarians shirt at the Millenium. Somehow managed to get tickets.

“Some people actually just couldn’t believe I was actually gay,” Mr. Sam said. “But I never had a problem with my teammates. Some of my coaches were worried, but there was never an issue.”

Shows what I know. I thought it was Mitsuya Nagai; I just had to look up an IWGP Jr. Title history to find the name.
EDIT: It's definitely not Shimada. In fact, I'm pretty sure it is Nagai. Well, that's what happened to him, I guess.
-
Didn't he win some Tag Titles with Yuji Nagata, then disappeared off the face of the planet, and eventually posted his half back to, I want to say AJPW, but I can't quite recall.
PS. who's the referee in that triple threat match? I recognise his face, but damned if I can remember his name.

Before I vote: where's this Senegalese wrestling? I feel like I've missed out on something quite spectacular there.
-
Well, I thoroughly enjoyed Parka vs. Wagner. I don't think I've ever seen Wagner get beaten so bad during a match.
My fantasy football team is called LA MarK, but no-one ever gets it.

Funnily enough, the All Blacks did what the other Kiwi Rugby team did.
Scotland brought the intensity against Australia, but it looks like they spent all the time preparing for that match on clobbering, and not on ball distribution. Only saw the first half, but they kept making the guy they were passing to jump for the ball. The most obvious case of that was Beattie's break which deserved a try, until Maitland held up Lamont with the pass and gave Folau enough time to cover across. I don't know if many other people could have shut that one down, but if Lamont doesn't have to stop to catch that, Scotland are ahead. They lost so much momentum with that nonsense.
In lower league news, the North Wales Crusaders sign Mark Offerdahl. Who signed who? My local semi-pro team signed the Tomahawks' massive #10. Wahey.

Kristian Freed, the USA's decidedly average sized Full Back was nearly perfect under the high ball, despite getting mauled at every opportunity by Australia's monstrous three quarter line. Well done, that man. It was probably the story of the game for the entire US team, but they played hard for the full 80 minutes, despite getting stomped by the best team in the world; and it was the best team in the world, the Aussies didn't look like they rested anyone out of their best squad.
I can pretty confidently say that Wales wouldn't have done any better.
-
He was the tall guy in the gi, and not the purple kicker of ass, right? I always get those two confused, because other guy was Koki Kitahara.One was awesome, and the other was a dick.
-
Looks like I've got to learn the words to Star Spangled Banner by Saturday for that QF.
-
Got tickets to that one. Looking forward to it, although I'm hoping for a Wales win.Opening day was a good day out, too. First time I've felt bad for any England Rugby team, and Wales was robbed. Okay, so they were really outclassed, but they had the game within reach until two or three decisions went against them, and that [and Aiden Guerra] killed them.

Or that lone county in the whole country that supports the Jets."On the other end of the spectrum, the Jets have to share New York with the Giants and are only the most popular team for a single stronghold county in Long Island."I love the weird pockets, like that one lone county that roots for Indy(or New England?) in Iowa.

I've been catching up on the last two basho. Is there any pattern to who Hakuho is a dick to? Sometimes he seems pretty friendly, other times it seems like he's channelling Asashoryu.
Also, it's a shame to see Koto'oshu look so old these days.
