Subject of great games.
I watched, or tried to watch a game this morning.
U.S. NFL at the MCG.

What a load of rubbish that is!!!!

Reckon I saw 1,000 TV adverts!!!
Possibly saw 15, maybe 20 minutes of actual "football" - if you can call it that.
The rest of the time while the clock ticks away they just seem to be wandering around scratching their butts and high fiving their "buddies".
I think I would actually rather torment myself watching a game of 3rd grade soccer.

Thought I picked up one one player is paid over a million dollars a week!
Someone has too much money.
A million bucks a week to wander round, maybe make a few tackles, or catch the odd pigskin and do a few rap jiggy jiggs.

Really?

Yanks really are strange fish.
You only have to have a gander at the boss fella and that really gives the game away.

He is off playing golf in Ireland today.

His swing doesn't seem to be commensurate with his handicap (2.8)?

Rule changes possibly?

He claims in interviews to have had 8 holes in one.
The approximate odds of getting a hole in one are 11,000 I believe.

If you multiply 11,000 x 11,000 x 11,000 x 11,000 etc to eight, it would come out at odds much much greater than winning Powerball!!!!
I know a couple of very talented golfers who have had one or two hole in one.
Also know a few very talented golfers who had had none in a lifetime.

They are rare..........
