Been pretty slack lately with my blogging. But in my defence I have been busy hurting my liver with excessive drinking. With my wife working everyday over the Easter break I found myself home alone in front of the tv, often with a stubby in my hand. On the plus sign, I managed to watch a lot of sport. Most of my teams doing ok. Collingwood managing to scrape over the line against a plucky Tigers team (I say plucky as i hate the term 'brave' that the media uses every time an outsider goes down in a close game). They were plucky because they were down and out a few times, but didn't give up...as crap as they were. Manly pulled themselves out of a form slump to smash the terrible panthers in their first home game for the year, despite missing several key players.
Chelsea had a mixed bag over the week. They qualified for the semi finals in the Champions league last week after a close second leg against Benifica. They also beat Wigan to give themselves a chance of making the top 4, but drew this morning against Fulham to make it a little more difficult. The Knicks got up in a cliff hanger against the Chicago Bulls in overtime thanks to 43 points from Carmello Anthony. My lower league English football team Ebbsfleet United (of which I am a part owner) drew this morning to Braintree Town to ensure our survival in the Blue Square league for another year. A big accomplishment after being one of the favourites for the drop. Liam Daish doing a fantastic job with a limited squad. I may even put my stamp on his contract extension for the next few years.
Well that's it from me in the world of sport. Catch you next time.
