Wow, can now tick two things off my bucket list:

In Australia a pitch invasion will result in a fine between AU$5000-AU$10000, a lifetime ban and a tresspassing conviction. Its (mostly) worked at reducing the number of idiots on the field.

I was going to say that my favourite Feinberg post was that exchange of emails with Joanna Rothkopf in the style of Jonathan Sarfan Foer and Natalie Portman but then I remembered that was actually Kelly Stout.

I thought “Bad Email decisions made in the wee hours” but then looked at the time stamps and realised that either he either does a LOT of day drinking or is just a mentalist.

A few months ago I had to berate some Italian lovebirds who were scratching their names onto the Giants Causeway. As in, UNESCO World Heritage Site. According to a staff member it happens all the time. What the fuck is wrong with people?

While you’re dead right, the problem is the old fight or flight reflex. I’ve been in situations, if not as dramatic as this one, where the smart thing is to walk away, but that adrenaline surge can make you very dumb.

The final decision on what constitutes acceptable ‘fun’ will be made by noted sport-game enthusiasts Ted Cruz and Reince Priebus. Can’t wait for those ball scores in the grass zone!

Most of these criteria apply to the ‘established’ religions. They’re not exactly famous for encouraging debate and doubt.

Couldn’t happen to a nicer bunch of arseholes. Fuck ‘em.

“Now, if you’ll excuse me, myself and Reince are going to go spike the football over the score zone” -Still Cruz

I was shouting loud enough to traumatise the neighbours. I love a good rugby day.

Irish. Pro 12 rugby is televised by Telifis na Gaeilge, which is the white elephant TV station for the dead language that we’re all officially bilingual in.

I recall a company that made retro football shirts back in the 90s classified their sizes as S, M, L, XL, XXL and Dartplayer

It’s (bleakly) funny to think that the American public were appalled by the transcripts of Nixon’s tapes, not just for the felonies but also the crassness and coarseness of the language used by the people running the country. I shudder to think what the verbatim records of conversation in Trump’s Oval Office would…

You should give Mr. Rampino a quick lesson in how the 1st Amendment actually works by reporting the multiple threats to the police.

This fight will be a farce under this contract. It only allows punching in the dick. What about the balls? Draymond Green is rolling in his grave.

Predates streaming etc, but I worked for HMV when Gary Glitter became an unperson... Only other example that springs to mind.

Uh... He does know that the Nirvana song really isn’t about parrots, right?

Great article mate, however you don’t mention the sport’s origins in Gaelic Football.. The two are so similar they can play compromise rules series (which have given us some great punch ups down the years). Also surprised you didn’t include the importance of a four and twenty pie to the live experience... And that…

Ever since the in-seat entertainment system failed for the entirety of a BA flight from London to Melbourne, I’ve made sure to have books handy. Several of them.
