I just read back over the evenings BBV.
I'm confused over alot of the posts regarding xfactor bets. People worried after performances and the like.
The vote was pretty much sealed before the final 2 performances, they pretty much wouldn't matter unless it was ridic close, why would anyone be sweating it at that stage, it was practically over?
The final 2 performances were no more than a time filler.We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence then is not an act, but a habit.

Why doesn't Higgins have to replay that snooker?
It also can't be a foul and a miss when the points gap between the players is greater than the collective point total of the balls left on the table.Profit before people.

Seems a bit awkward.

Originally posted by ArmaniJeans View PostThe logic is that because there is no incentive for a player to deliberately foul in this situation that by definition it must have been a genuine attempt - and therefore can't be a miss.
On the other hand, it's been a long time since i've seen an attempt to get out of a snooker that hasn't been called a miss

Originally posted by ArmaniJeans View PostI agree, buts it's the theory behind the rule. I think they are loathe to make any more changes to the misrule to close the couple of loopholes like this, because they always inadvertently make it worse.

Is Higgins winning a bit manky?
Yeah he was emotional cause his dad's sick and all but will he always be a bit of a cheating scumbag?
I know a couple of people fairly involved in snooker who believe this to be the case.
I know he's served his ban, but he was obv banned for a reason.We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence then is not an act, but a habit.

None of the 'black disabled lesbian warbling backwards' stuff that the other players inflicted on me.

Knock the drink on the head for a bit if you cannot handle it

Relating it to UFC which you're a fan of, GSP is a confirmed cheater. He's been involved in a few fights where he's been greased up with vaseline which is totally against the rules, but he's still a legend and not classed as a cheating dirty scumbag by the masses bar a few inside the sport such as BJ Penn and Matt Hughes.
I'm quite happy John won and i think he deserved it on the back of everything and hope he carries on playing for a long time

He was quite the troll for a while.
Anyway another poster came along and said, you call THAT trolling? THIS is trolling, it was then I knew I was beaten. That kids name was DBC. (my hero)
I also lost my sidekick who got bored and so I lost my enjoyment. Now I just annoy DD about you know who>

Originally posted by Zuroph View Postexactly. there just isnt any joke behind it, its alongside tommy tiernan on the self destruction path now.
no punchline, just "I referenced her disabled kid, ha."Originally posted by Katie Price Official Statement“Harvey Price is a little miracle. Every day he overcomes so many difficulties WITH THE HELP OF FAMILY AND MEDICAL EXPERTS and has so many tiny battles to win due to his MEDICAL PROBLEMS (septo-optic dysplasia) and AUTISM. I LOVE HIM AND AM DEEPLY PROUD TO BE HIS MOTHER. If Mr Boyle had a 10th of his courage and decency he would know that to suggest, let alone think funny, that Harvey may sexually attack me is vile and deeply unfair. Mr Boyle clearly has serious issues and those that give him a TV platform TO SAY SUCH DISGUSTING THINGS need to look at themselves very honestly. To bully this unbelievably brave child is despicable, to broadcast it on television is to show a complete and utter lack of judgment. I have asked my lawyers to write to channel 4 on Harvey’s behalf.”

Originally posted by Flushdraw View PostMeh i'm over it now. He's been punished for the crime. There's very little money in Snooker compared to other sports and he tried to make a few quid on the side in a Mickey Mouse game, got caught, got punished now is trying to get his life back on track doing what he does best. And at his best, he's as good as anyone is, or anyone ever was. People do stupid silly things all the time, and he's going to be carrying a burden on his back for the rest of his life.

Originally posted by Solskjaer View PostSeriously ? What he did is a disgrace. I suppose considering we allow our politicians to cheat and our bankers to take this piss we should turn a blind eye to the poor old broke snooker boys. only making money so he was. What time did he serve?
He was banned from the sport, banned from competing, banned from earning money, and he lost ranking points etc so he has a bit of a climb ahead of him. I'm not patting him on the back or saying well done, but it's in the past and it wasn't even that serious so i don't think it deserves a life long hate campaign

It's not any individual joke (although liked his 'Loose Women Iran' thing, and the Shawshank Redemption), it's what he represents. He represents the exact opposite to the standard crap we are given in most tv shows and is actually allowed a bit of leeway imo.
He IS a TV product, he is the TV product that is a little naughty
up until recently the dig at him was "the offensive comedian who has never offended a member of his target audience"
It was all "oooh look what i just said"
which has the exact same joke structure as the lads who used to tell pretend blue jokes on TV and made your Granny laugh while saying
"ooh that is awful"
It is a gimmick
*ooh and I used to be a big fan of Jerry Sadowitz so this isn't a language or abuse thing as Sadowitz makes Boyle look like Jimmy Cricket
