Does the Jackpot game get many runners on a Wednesday these days? Itching for a live tourney.

Doubt it would get more than 2 tables, hasn't anyway on the few occasions I've played it

[LuckyLloyd]

Someone ban BK please

Severely fucking tempted. Clearly wasn't even bothered to read wiki on the 2004 incident. In work all day and just found out O'Connor was money time in the big show after scraping in ala 2004. While funking the awesome updates itt I had to suffer them being interspersed with his half baked bollocks. Awful.

@Denny Crane: you say there are riders more talented, but the courses at the end of an olympics seem as tough as it gets (as evidenced by the paucity of clears) and both times he's got there he's stepped up. I'd he isn't technically talented he's certainly a big stage performer at the very least...

[LuckyLloyd]

people said the same after;

I said AC_E was talking shit about his baby back in Novemeber 2 weeks after he broke the big news

I said Donegal play puke football that will destroy the game

Road cycling was corrupt with drugs

Robbie Keane was passed it and would contribute nothing in the WC

Probably more but I can't think of any off the top of my head.

pattern developing here - you can always just block me if you dont like the delivery of my opinions but they are more often than not carrying substance

Im sick of constantly being accused of trolling because my opinions arent in line with popular sensationalist bullshit that people like to read

Ah, fair enough - well played.

for hotspur:

A man walks into a psychiatrist’s office, the psychiatrist asks what the problem is, and he tells him that he has to help him, that he keeps thinking he's a world-famous psychiatrist. And the psychiatrist asks him how long this has been going on for.

That slowing down craic is dangerous

Would have been hilarious.

[eamonhonda]

he could at least make it look like hes trying, ive built up bigger sweats running to the shop for milk

[Semibluff]

Sat Nav in here bragging about this song pop milarky

she's currently 8-0 down. This is getting embarrassing, esp considering ive the volume muted on my lappy

[cooker3]

How depressing must it be for some of the athletes. You're in top 20 of the world. Probably grew up dominating all levels and age groups. The biggest stage of them all that you trained all your life for. You give your all and then some Jamaican lad ahead of you strolls for the final half of the race and still beats you easily.

[KevIRL]

What a jump Reese.

[cooker3]

Btw for NFL fantasy people. The news from Packers training camp from a few beat writers universally say player of the camp comfortably is Jordy Nelson.

[ghostface]

One false start and thats it! Shocking

Well Written wsop TR

It's a long time since I so badly wanted to give someone a good slap as this pretentious twat and then I got to the line where he describes his hollywooding after he butchers a hand

When I say “consciously aware”, I’m referring to the dynamics I can articulate in English; the facets of the hand I can communicate using the agreed upon language much of western society uses.

GTFO

[eamonhonda]

I really cant wait for NFL to start.

[Closed_Account]

Yeah had no idea you only get one shot at it.

[oleras]

Sorted a little break in Feb next year, what i was paying for 5 nights in NY in November, I got 3 nights in NY and 7 night Bahamas cruise. Cant wait !

Where did you book that?

[eamonhonda]

whos the bird on rte panel?

[6starpool]

whos the bird on rte panel?

Irish 100m record holder for wenches.

[Raoul Duke III]

Yeah had no idea you only get one shot at it.

been that way for a while, remember Bolt got disqualified in the World Champs?

[oleras]

Where did you book that?

http://www.americanholidays.com/special/nyc-the-bahamas

says 1075 but works out arounf 1200 per human.

[6starpool]

1st Olympics with that rule though. It's presumably so that the schedules don't get messed up for tv, but it is incredibly harsh.

[eamonhonda]

If she cant box who gives a bollocks

I prefer the per human description. Has a touch of the morbo the annihilator about it.

[Emmet]

Good finish to the round from Barnes, another fight where I'm in disagreement with the judges to the Irish boxer's detriment though!

[KevIRL]

No knock out now please

[Emmet]

Come on Paddy!

Headbutt fairly shocking and obvious.

Keep it tight and we're dancing

[Emmet]

jesus he looks fucked.

finishing okay though. Stand up and land a few punches lad!

[Emmet]

well beaten in the last round, but 6 points?

[ghostface]

Has to be ok there to win

[Bubbleking]

Brady is 3/5

You are wrong here imo and most people's opinions . I think that Ben is Elite but still 5th or 6th best QB in the NFL.

I never said he was the best just that he was the most under rated QB in the NFL and it was hard to see where he would stand among the top players but I considered him elite.

Severely fucking tempted. Clearly wasn't even bothered to read wiki on the 2004 incident. In work all day and just found out O'Connor was money time in the big show after scraping in ala 2004.

Ah, fair enough - well played.

quickest turn around ever? unless you're being sarcastic?

[KevIRL]

Medal haul now matches Melbourne. Now to improve the colours of them and hope one of our 3 outside hopes can get the haul to 6.

Well done Paddy Barnes

[Bubbleking]

fair play Paddy Barnes delighted for him

[Lady Di]

Savage stuff!!

110m hurdles final time.

for fucks sake, RTE could have shown that. Only see the replay now

Also, eng guy - drugs

[6starpool]

What's the calendar look like now Kev?

[Emmet]

Britain may have had an outrageous medal haul from the cycling.

But we sent 6 Boxers. 4 of whom have won medals.

All 4 can colour up too!

[eamonhonda]

brit needs more drugs too scrawny

[bohsman]

1st Olympics with that rule though. It's presumably so that the schedules don't get messed up for tv, but it is incredibly harsh.

Will always remember this one from when they changed it to one false start and then disqualification for the next person to false start.

200m womens final was on at the end of the boxing as well. I watched it on the eurovision site, good that you can rewind.

Don't be so results orientated!

That you earlier powering down Fleet street in the red earlier?

Yeah maybe I'm overly biased by my early experiences with him, I'm out of it a while! I think sj is one of the sports with the least amount of big heart/stepping up though, that's for the horse.

[oleras]

Those head on slo mo shots of dudes in onesies jumping hurdles should be banned...

[kenttheking]

Excellent boxing well done us surly time for the great jimmy mcgee to step aside hes woeful

Comedy fans.

I spend 4 days at Fringe in Edinburgh this month. Who are my "must not miss"?

(note, I just searched the site and saw 818 pages of performers, this is an easier way for me to cut through that)

[Lady Di]

Doesn't sound like Barnes' chances are too good in the semis

[Closed_Account]

Read a bit more of that guys TR from the World Series actually, was too quick to judge. He writes really well and doesnt seem particularly obnoxious.

i think he comes across obnoxious because hes trying to hard with the descriptive writing at times

[MrPillowTalk]

Gary linekar hinting at doping on the gb cycling teams performance, quickly brushed aside but surprising all the same.

went last year, loved it.

if you like sick dark humour, Jermey Sadowitz is fantastic, makes frankie boyle loook like mother theresa.

Adam Ritchie was the hottest ticket at last years fringe, but always left it too late to get tickets. So when you decide on which shows you want to see, grab the ticks as soon as, especially at weeknds.

There are some "best of the fest" shows on a couple of times each day, which are great for getting a flavour of whats on out there, basically 6/7 acts come in and do 5/10mins slots. My highlight of the festival was actually the best of fest caberat which was on in a spiegeltent.

They have a special late licence in Edinburgh for duration of fest, so there are some great musical comedy acts on deep into the night.

[KevIRL]

Love this

Seen Conlan try one the other night to.

"He's in bits Marty"
"Whos in bits"
"Humpty Dumpty"

Go team boxers, way to take the piss out of the foreheaded one

Do you not think he's constantly aftertiming his thought process for the hh's ?

I lived there last year, reckon I saw you one of the nights!

Heading back up for 5/6 nights to hang with some of the crew from last year and catch some shows.

We're booked in for Dylan Moran, just trying to figure out who else I can't miss really!

The weirdest thing ever happened tonight. I was ringing a taxi for Chanel , and the first one couldnt do it so I decided to ring a chap that worked with Colm but went into the taxi business after the boom. Only met him once when he dropped me home and saved his number. Couldnt get through. Some time later my phone rang with a very unusual number. The Convo went like this:

ME. Hello who is this?
Other person: Sean, whos this?
Me.Michelle Gavigan
Other person: This is Sean , Im in Ghana!
ME. WTF huh what you doing over there
Sean:driving a Dozer
Me: omg thats weird, Colm applied for a job driving a dozer a while back and more or less had it but the whole thing fell through. Any chance you could get colm over there. whats the money like?
Sean: The poverty is unreal , I wanted to climb back on the plane after arriving, however I am alright now. The company is brilliant pay for everything, injections, flights and acomodation . wages 30 pounds sterling an hour plus OT.
Me. jesus thats great, could you put in a word for him
Sean: ya will do , I am meeting the boss next week as there is alot of shit going on here at the moment and we might be moved to another place. Ill run it by sean grey.
Me. I know that name seems familar , whats the company ?
Sean, WHBO
ME : OMFG thats the company colm went to interview for job. ( told him the crack)
Sean: well what he heard in email is not lies, last week there was machetes and everything on the site , war going on over expats. 45 were meant to start here only 3 came and the only reason they came is because they had a pull.


so anyway bottom line is that sean is very friendly with the man that interviewed colm and will be chatting to him soon, in the mean time sean said to give colm his number and text him and they will chat from there.

How fucking odd is that!
