I couldn’t see about 80% of the game because of the fog, but it was a pretty
horrible game anyway. The crusaders had about 80% territory and about 60%
possesion and could only score one try … a victory for a crap boring style
of play. Im watching league from now on.

One for the Thumb
Yay! The Steelers won the superbowl and we had a fun party at our house
watching the game. Ill put the photos up later on and put up a link to them.

The photos are up here
Going to the Sevens
The Wellington Sevens are on today and
tomorrow. And I’m to cheer for NZ and I think Kenya this year. It should be
a lot of fun, and then we have the Superbowl to watch on Monday (NZ time).
Sporty weekend.
What a game!
Well, we lost but theres very little shame in that when you lose by 2 runs
and have scored 320. 642 runs a days cricket .. you can’t ask for much more
than that. And the atmosphere at the stadium was great. I’m off to the
cricket wilderness of Pittsburgh for a few weeks, so cricinfo.com will be my
friend.
I need a student ID
Ok, so I’m planning to go watch some hockey when I’m in the states over Christmas. The Penguins have a great deal if you are a student, the Penguins Student Rush. Basically you turn up 1 hour before the game, and get the best of the seats unsold for $20.
So now I just need a student ID 🙂
2 points from History
Well the kiwis came very close to historic back to back wins tonight, still losing 28-26 is still pretty respectable and it was a great game to watch. I hope the NPC final tomorrow night is as good.
Hopefully the black caps will win the 20-20 game too, though im not staying up till 4am to watch.
World XI vs Australia
Yay its cricket season in the southern hemisphere. Tonight the World XI are
playing Australia in Melbourne, and Daniel Vettori has started the series
really well. He took 4-33 off his 10 overs when bowling, hopefully he will
do well with the bat as well. Currently the World XI arent chasing so well
at 61-3 … but they bat a long way down, so we’ll see.
There are 4 internationals in Wellington this summer, Australia ODI on the
7th of December, Sri Lanka ODI 6th of January, West Indies ODI on the 18th
and West Indies 17-21 March.
I plan to be at them all, barring the ODI on the 6th of January, wearing my
beige and singing stupid songs.
UPDATE 2005/10/05: Eeek
Its now 105-7. 149 to win off 121 balls, I cant see it happening
UPDATE 2005/10/06: Bah
Its now 118-8 … 142 off 102, but Daniel is batting now so Ill watch for a
bit longer.
