Okay. I'm convinced. Mo Farah is pretty good at running.

I was wondering the other day about who would be the best in the world if all 4 major racket sports (tennis, squash, table tennis and badminton) were somehow combined...lo and behold, such a sport does exist and it is called Racketlon https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Racketlon There is even a World...

Atlanta Falcons 28 New England Patriots 34 in overtime Wow !! Some already well off Boston gentlemen came to Houston and mugged some poor Atlanta gentlemen. In the 3rd quarter Atlanta went 28-3 up At start of the 4th quarter Atlanta were 28-9 up. Inside 4 minutes to go Atlanta were 28-20 up as New Engla...

with the 6 nations just around the corner i'd was wondering what everyones predictions were I think it has potential to be very close but will be between ireland and england with scotland a close 3rd. this is easily the best scotland team i have seen in my lifetime (im 23!) and they have potential to win a...

I know that in JWH we have our very own tennis/basketball hotshot, but I doubt even he has ever made a shot like this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wz-jNoHjdb0

Really interesting last round of matches in cricket's county championship. Three sides trying to win the title - Somerset, Yorkshire and Middlesex Three sides trying to stay up(one to go down) - Lancashire, Hampshire and Warwickshire Somerset look like winning, but then have to rely on Yorkshi...

Just wondered if anybody here was thinking of making the trek over to Rio for the Olympics ? I am certainly thinking of heading down to Rio, although I have left it very late to get tickets/accommodation etc. But there still seems to be some decent deals on rental apartments or home stay accommodatio...

Great to see Northern Ireland through to France next year, joining England, and with Wales virtually certain to be there too. Add the Republic being in at least a play-off and be interesting times. We in Scotland will watch it all unfold err stress free. Should really have 32 qualifiers, 40 qualifier...

Get the feeling that Paulisi is having an enjoyable day in Cape Town. Lucky so and so.

******* referee

Proud of how you hung in there and, though yes a good final lineout would have rather helped, you were done, Scotland. Happy ( too late ) TV viewing, Mr Ref

The end .... for Scotland and the Northern Hemisphere. -- Edited by indiana on Sunday 18th of October 2015 05:38:23...

Big shout out for Katy Dunne's big brother Connor(who represents Ireland) who has broken away on stage 1 and only just got caught in the last couple of km. He will be on the podium.

Is it just me(with an athletics connection), but the BBC's TV coverage is still awful. Very little focus on the field events, too many pundits chit chatting and too many features instead of live athletics In addition to that I had to turn off when they absolutely tore Katarina Johnson Thompson and...

Just wondering where people stand on the KP situation. I admit that I am a big fan of his. Purely from a sporting perspective, he is box office and clearly still able to produce the goods. I accept that he can be difficult to manage at times. It would be safe to call him a "Maverick" and I am su...

Not a fairytale ending with a winner in his last race, but watching it and the send-off he received made me feel quite emotional. An amazing career, deserved all the applause and good wishes at Sandown today.

I am not a massive golf fan, but when the majors or the Ryder Cup come around, I get interested. Today, everyone's favourite major, The Masters, begins at Augusta National and the Azaleas are in full bloom. So I thought I would start off a thread with a real "feel good" story that has been all o...

Just wanted to say "get well Michael". In all honesty, he was a driver I respected more than liked, but I wouldn't wish this on anyone. Here's hoping he makes a swift and complete recovery.

So.... who else is waiting for this to start? I think the 2010/11 English team was a better one, but this Australian team is definitely worse, too, so it sort of evens out. I think England should win, but who knows with these guys. I'm going for a 3-1 to England.

Bye bye Spain - first major shock in the tournament.

Did any of you just follow that Chicago Blackhawks LA Kings Series? Greatest hockey series I have ever seen and since the Kings won they now play the NY Rangers.....the Kings must be super tired after three seven games series but I still think they will have too much for the NY Rangers. What do you think?...

paulisi · paulisi

Very impressed with all features in the Big Bash. High standard, good crowds, excellent tv coverage and the correct format. probably the best 20/20 tournament in the world now As IPL doesn't have the quality, even if it does have the bucks. UK comp has too many teams and not enough structure in terms of...

I'm not sure Howard Foster will be refereeing a high profile match for a while. Froch would have won on points on a split decision though.
