[The Situation]

Steve Coogan brilliant on Newsnight!

The Great Yao Ming announced his retirement today, after being unable to overcome chronic injury problems:

Sad to hear. It looked likely for the last while. Never got to see him live, would have loved to. Got to see Muresan and thought he was about as good as a guy that size could be. Then along came Yao Ming and I'm pretty certain we will never see a guy that size thats as good as he was.

[ComradeCollie]

about the mechanics of being fcked by a dog

Any mention of putting socks on the front paws? Bestiality 101 IMO

EE, you were the twit that came on spouting about his chances - I'm giving you 20/1 against him to win the presidency

either admit you haven't a clue what you're on about (i.e spoofing about a 'candidate' who isn't even a runner) or else take advantage of my foolishness in offering you a juicy 20/1 against this sure thing that your political genius has identified as the winner

all yours, the 20/1 still stands, good until midnight. After that you can ring PP and have their traders lol at you instead.

In my first post on the matter I said 'if' Brian Crowley goes for it he will win it imo. I want the bet but only if he declares himself a candidate.

You quoted my post with the 'if' in it. I just wanted clarification on that and you have been running for the hills since.

ring up Paddy Power there like a good man, see if they'll do you 'with a run'

tell them you want odds on Bill Clinton to win the next US election while you're at it

I've no intention of ringing up Paddy Power. You put up the offer, I could just have accepted it and if he doesn't run tell you tough because it was part of what you quoted. Instead I was fair about it and sought clarification and you just don't want to know then. Maybe I'm not aware of something, has he declared that he won't be running or something?

Anyways chicken out if you want. My post is there in plain text unedited for all to see and I said 'if'. You quoted it and have been running for the hills since I sought clarification.

I really hope for your sake you are trolling but based on your history, I doubt it

good luck with your new career as political soothsayer

[Zuroph]

IF Barack Obama runs for the Irish Presidency, I think he'll walk it.

I've told you I'm not trolling. Is this a case that I'm not aware of something regarding Brian Crowley? Has he said he is not running or maybe Fianna Fail are not putting a candidate forward?

I haven't been following it closely at all but I'm aware of how a lot of the candidates are perceived nationally.

So either put up or shut up. There was an 'if' in my first post. You quoted it, are you going to honour the text of what you quoted?

Fml, gym followed with cans, now in pub with the French crowd again.

Hot French chicks present?

[Raoul Duke III]

lol, possibly

there is a <1% chance that he is trolling imo, either way the net effect is the same and life is too short so time to call a halt before what's left of my sanity evaporates...

[Raoul Duke III]

smelly French dudes imo

[eagle eye]

I think we all got that

So you are just going to continue with these short answers and not give an answer to anything I've asked?

[Raoul Duke III]

yes, you don't deserve any more

by the way I'm utterly convinced that Spain will win the Copa America

[ComradeCollie]

If I believed in section 31, Eagle Eye would be on ignore. Surprised you're replying RD. Not deserved. No smileys.

[Emmet]

What happened to only spending £6 this weekend?

I have spent <£6. 4 cans is £3 and a pint is £2.20. Fumes for the remaider unfortunately, although I have a bottle of wine at home.

there is one French girl, I alienated her after she drank my beer by mistake, or so she said.

[sligoboi]

Ye're both talking about a different bet and neither will give in so just leave it imo..

[Raoul Duke III]

I blame it on the sleep deprivation tbf

[ArmaniJeans]

Weekend Politics blackout traditionally kicks in on the BBV at 23.59 Friday, so get it sorted in the next 10mins or STFU.

[tylerdurden94]

Crazy to see RDIII posting so late, take it the new addition is keeping you awake, probably hard to follow Betty White's tips at the moment?

[eagle eye]

Why don't I deserve any more? I'm not trolling and I was willing to take a bet.

As for your talk about the Copa America. Its not beyond the realms of possibly that Spain could win the Copa America. There are two teams invited to play in every tournament. So they could win it at some stage in the future.

Ye're both wrong, sort of

[Icarus152]

Life imitating a WW game imo.

[Frossach]

lol

[eagle eye]

I think its quite obvious that I'm not aware of something as regards Brian Crowley. It must be certain he is not running for it or something. I heard a couple of weeks back that he was interested. I've no problem taking a bet if he is a candidate.

[The Situation]

Ref very annoying in this Copa game.

Happens me quite a bit. I usually get paranoid that they just don't like me. Hope this helps

spike their drinks imo

[Raoul Duke III]

agreed

[eagle eye]

Well its clear now you were disingenuous with your offer. I don't know what you are on today or maybe its that you are off something. Either way take it handy, don't do anything too exciting.

Will you give me odds on norris?

Non runner no bet obv.

[Micknail]

Thank fuck EE isn't the vigilantly IRL

[Raoul Duke III]

he'll have to check with his sources first

The band in the pub just sang lazare's tune

[Strewelpeter]

Lol ee... Its an unequal battle.

[eagle eye]

Not at the moment. When I know who all the candidates are I'll deffo talk to you about it.

[eagle eye]

Lol ee... Its an unequal battle.

For sure, I was dragged down by a fool to his level and beaten with experience!

[Raoul Duke III]

that would be a good idea

I'd be surprised if Haughey doesn't get the FF nomination and Fitzgerald must be a cert for FG

[eagle eye]

You are totally delusional now. No chance of Sean Haughey or Frances Fitzgerald going for the presidency.

[DAMO72]

Odds on Jedward anyone??

[Zuroph]

But if they did, they'd walk it.

pls leave them two tool out, 2 total tools of the highest order

[Lord Sir Banter]

John 4/6, Edward 7/4

[The Situation]

When Chile have tried to play football they've been really good. Far too much long ball stuff this game considering how good their midfield is but it's been bypassed the majority of the time.

One more goal pls.

[ghostface]

Craving a spice burger. EE is all good in my book. Another smoke break, cunts. Need some drugs to spike these pricks

Have to say I don't like that back 3 set up. Isla is a classy full back and they can easily have a conventional back 4. It looked dodgy the other night against Mexico.

First week in July, warm outside, not raining.
Should really be going to a pub with a large seated outdoor area.

The Draw for the knockouts of the Copa is quite funny.
The winners of Group A (Argentina group) go into the top half. The runners-up of this group also go into the top half.

Meanwhile First and Second in Group B (Brazil group) go into the bottom half.

Blatantly set up to keep Argentina and Brazil in opposite halfs for the dream final.
*******
For anyone interested its
(A1 v BestThird1) v (A2 v C2).
(B1 v BestThird2) v (C1 v B2).
