That Packers @ Patriots game produced some pretty epic trading opportunities last night.

Essentially Pats were > 2 td favourites pre-game as Packers elite QB was out injured. Packers take a 17-7 lead in the second quarter and then this happens:

That's a 22 stone man folks who usually moves about 4 feet on a normal play. Hilarious the way he's carrying the ball like a loaf of bread. You're always taught to carry the ball like you're caressing a breast from behind with the point of the ball in the palm of your hand akin to a nipple.


Anyhow I digress, there's multiple lead changes and we get a market that looks like this:






Weeeeeeeeeee. Volatility ftw.

Was 4yrds from being 10x better, shame

I have no clue what those stats mean but that was a hell of a run!! TD would have been epic

AC Milan have signed Antonio Cassano apparently!? Makes perfect sense, the squad was definitely lacking an on-his-day-brilliant-but-often-inconsistent-and-highly-temperamental striker. Paves the way for Ronaldinho to goto Liverpool, I guess

He is off to Gremio apparently.

[Lurker23]

I have no clue what those stats mean

Packers started around 12/1 to win. They plummet to 2/1 when they take the 17-7 lead. Patriots score a td off that run and they drift back to 9/1. Matched as low as 2/5 in the 4th quarter and eventually lose.

Reverse for the Patriots who were matched at close to 1/10 pre-game and drift to around 9/4 during the game before hanging on at the end for the win.

iPods are for suckers. 500gbs of storage ftw.

Also did Andy Gray actually question, with a straight face, whether Barcelona could do it against Stoke today!? Because that's fantastic if so. More top punditry from the big man.

Fuller would give them the lead then they would stick 10 at the back, Barca will nick a equaliser through Messi only for Pulis to throw in Tuncay who grabs a 92nd minute winner.

A song about hopeless drug addiction should not be as uplifting as they've made it, that's surprisingly brilliant! Is there other stuff any use?

I'm still getting through it but their original stuff is probably better.Most of the covers seem to be drug related so I'm not sure if the producer was having a laugh or what.

having to put together a playlist from scratch seems like too much hassle tho.

For me,it's primary use is hearing new songs that I wouldn't normally.Setting up playlists etc is just a small part.Use either a preset radio station,give it some tips on what you like/don't like or peek other peoples favorites.Let it play away while you're doing other stuff and click songs you like as you go.

Hey presto,new music collection.

2.45 hours journey home Tallaght to Sandford. I do it in 15 mins on a Sunday - least I had newstalk to keep me somewhat sane

That wasn't too bad. A friend of mine rang me from his car outside Dundrum SC at 6pm. He didn't get to Ranelagh until 11.30pm. His only other option was to abandon his car in the middle of the road as they could not move an inch.

My weather prediction impeccably accurate as always.

There is more snow in South Dublin than there was three weeks ago that's for sure.

LOL. I was thinking that as I skidded out of the estate this morning. Ah well, at least Gerald Fleming can sleep easy knowing you aren't after his job

FBI report: Crime statistics improve for first half of 2010

Reports of violent crime were down 6.2 percent and property-crime reports down 2.8 percent across the United States in the first six months of 2010, compared with the same period a year earlier, according to preliminary Justice Department data released on Monday.

The biggest drops in violent-crime reports were in the South (7.8 percent), the Midwest (7.2 percent), and the West (7.2 percent). The Northeast, on the other hand, recorded a 0.2 percent decrease in violent-crime reports.

The data for the Northeast show increases in reports of murder, rape, assault, and burglary, compared with the same period a year earlier.

The crime statistics are part of the Uniform Crime Report assembled each year by the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Since the 1930s, the FBI has collected data from law-enforcement agencies nationwide concerning the number of crimes reported to police or other agencies. These figures are compiled and used to calculate crime rates.

The data released on Monday represent preliminary findings for the first half of 2010. The complete 2010 report is expected to be released in the spring.

Nationwide, the six-month report shows reports of murder down 7.1 percent, rape reports down 6.2 percent, robbery reports down 10.7 percent, and aggravated-assault reports down 3.9 percent. The data indicate a similar downward trend in reports of property crimes – with theft down 2.3 percent, motor-vehicle theft down 9.7 percent, and arson down 14.6 percent.

The Good: The Town. Nice work Mr. Affleck.

The Bad: LOL at Kolo Toure turning his back for the Baines Goal. The Honey-Monster would have spread himself in front of dat like Ikey at a Beiber concert. How much money he on FFS? Should be instinctive.

The Ugly: nVidia drivers. Tilting CNUTS.

Just a heads up.

Top Gear special on tonight.

Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May compare the Mercedes SLS, the Porsche 911 GT3 RS and the Ferrari 458 Italia in an epic road trip up America's east coast. Along the way they undertake a series of challenges culminating in a fight to find the fastest way into New York, all in the name of crowning the world's greatest sports car. Plus, a round up of car-related Christmas stuff and another celebrity takes to the track as the star in a Reasonably Priced Car.

Snowpocalypse Now.

[Lord Sir Banter]

It's snowing Lloyding.

[ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mN7LW0Y00kE[/ame]

Oh the weather outside is frightful,
But the fire is so delightful,
And since we've no place to go,
Let It Lloyd! Let It Lloyd! Let It Lloyd!

It doesn't show signs of stopping,
And I've bought some corn for popping,
The lights are turned way down low,
Let It Lloyd! Let It Lloyd! Let It Lloyd!

When we finally kiss goodnight,
How I'll hate going out in the storm!
But if you'll really hold me tight,
All the way home I'll be warm.

The fire is slowly dying,
And, my dear, we're still good-bying,
But as long as you love me so,
Let It Lloyd! Let It Lloyd! Let It Lloyd!

Worst €2 shop in the history of €2 shops, Centra, Post office, Off Licence, Garage and a Tesco Express.

[Lord Sir Banter]

Jeez, you're laughing.

You can get a one-4-all voucher in the post office, covers a lot of shops.
Off licence for gargle.
Tesco for selection boxes/tins of roses/celebrations/maybe dvds/candles and other bollox.
2e store is a goldmine of sh1te.
Garage is a lucky dip.
Same with centra, and it's just a walk away.

You don't need to go far.
