Still a bit of a neutral, I have no team but my son is ****ed off that his team (packers) appear to have been robbed by a dodgy decision at the death. Certainly seems that Jennings intercepted. Looks as though they're re-analyzing still, 30 mins after the end. Bonkers!

I noticed that too...what a grumpy old bastard!

Ah, the place where they thought they'd bought Tower Bridge only to find it was the crappy London Bridge. Can't see the attraction of Lake Havasu myself.

Can't really add anything to the above...loads of good advice there. Aintforever - you mentioned you wanted to take in Griffith Park Observatory. If interested in astronomy, and traveling through Furnace Creek, Death Valley on exactly the weekend of 12/13th Oct (that's a big long shot!), my astronomy posse and I, armed with some fat scopes will be enjoying the dark skies there at the airport strip. Whilst in Las Vegas and you fancied to get away from it for a few hours, there's the scenic Redrock Canyon and loop to the west and Valley of Fire to the East...recommended if you like that sort of thing. Gives you a good taste of desert scenery if the Southern Utah parks (although the magnificent Zion Park is only 3 hours northeast of Vegas) and Grand Canyon are too far out for you. Enjoy and take it easy man! That's a lot of ground to cover.

It'll be very delayed for me, won't be able to watch until Sunday evening. I can see us scoring... Hopefully more than we concede

I saw it advertised on FSC a couple of weeks ago but wasn't paying much attention to it. Googled it, found no info on their website but ended up on YouTube where I found the free preview trailer. Looks to be across the board as there were no provider details.

FYI - Fox Soccer Plus is available this week starting 15th sept on a free trial. Very good timing as they're showing the arse game. Was going to order the channel for the month but can hold off for now! Villa the week after is back on regular FSC.

That kind of Glazier, phew. Thought we were about to be bought out.

Just finished Breaking Bad season 1, second series to commence tonight. I like this. Also Wallander (season 2), pretty good tv but think I would prefer the original Swedish version.

Agreed with your summary especially the bit about him not getting injured. Uruguay were awful but some nice moments from Ramirez without anything spectacular. Looking forward to next week.

Has it created an unfortunate but amusing result? Say your surname is Watt, first name Tim, or something similar? Peter Enis, etc...

Has anyone got his telephone number? Tony Adams' son gave it to me once but I've mislaid it.

Tune not sure, but lyrics are these - Gaston Ramirez....... He'll match Suarez toe for toe He comes from Uraguay But he won't call you Negrito

He appeared to be performing and 'sampling' with Orbital earlier.

Good. I think he's more of an Arrogant Bastard and 90 Minute man myself.

Alright SoCal! Since this thread is at a standstill, and I'm bored at work, and very thirsty. Let's talk craft beers! Your favs?

What's so c*ntish putting it on pizza? Goes perfectly, bit of anchovy too and you have a great balance imo. Apples have to be crisp. Braeburns my fave, most others I'll skip as they tend to be bland and sometimes mushy. Raspberries, cherries, peaches, watermelon (small ones), pineapple, passion fruit, cantaloupe.

Was at the game but ran out of cash after the game and wanted one of those half/half team scarfs for my son. Anyone know a link (tried Ebay) where I can search for one, or anyone have an extra they're willing to sell?

NY - I'd go for DTV. I've been pretty happy with them for the last 10 years. They have two DVRs available - their normal one and the more expensive Tivo with less features but a splendid interface. I'm going to be calling them quite soon myself to ask them to offer me a decent Tivo HD package.

Like to keep with DTV as last year they re-introduced their integrated Tivo HD receiver - a format which I'm a stickler for - don't like the generic DVRs at all. On a side note, I hope Fox see fit to put a daily Sky Sports News broadcast back on at around 4pm/7pm PST/EST, rather than either in the morning or late night. I want to see the day's news at 11pm/midnight GMT. They keep tinkering with it and it's just not on! Enjoy St Marys!

I have normal directv but no HD. It's always looked a bit blurry on my old projection tv. Time to start looking for some decent flatscreen deals and TiVo hd. SoCal - "glorious" sounds pretty good to me...

How not to take a penalty

2nd

Some of my celebratory footage - not the goals. The atmosphere was ten times better 20 seconds earlier, but who had the time or the capacity to film?! 1st
