Anyone wanting some football to watch, Luton vs Grimsby is on BT Sport 2...

 

Stan Wawrinka, the conqueror of Andy Murray in the last round, is a double break against Djokovic in the US open semis. 4-1 in the first set.

 

Hampshire on Sky Sports 3 is where the drama is.

 

Yay

 

Nah I'm waiting around for Strictly Come Dancing to start in an hour

 

Blimey, someone got a total of 211 in Pointless!

 

Wawrinka won the first set 6-2 and is now a break up in the second. Wow.

 

Anyhow, I went to Farnborough v Dover, and I have to say, Dover play in the brightest most glaring shade of pink you've ever seen. I'll have to upload a picture. The game itself was a bit meh, two teams playing quite a low standard of football (Portsmouth Ladies play to a much better standard, not kidding) but Farnborough won so can't complain.

And at the end of the game, they were giving away Paddy Power umbrellas so I now have a nice new green umbrella. Quite a decent one too as it has quite a large diameter, although it doesn't fold up like my current one.

 

They are announcing the new sport as well, between baseball/softball, squash, and wrestling. 'mon squash.

 

This final round on Pointless is so up my street. Must've named about 10 songs in the minute.

 

Squash would be great. Baseball could be interesting, though I really don't get the rules, but then neither did I with American football at first and now I very much like it. Isn't there already wrestling? If it's just another form, then it's a resounding NOOooooooooooo from me.

 

How can you not get the rules of baseball? They're so simple.

 

Anyone watching Strictly Come Dancing? I'm going for Ben Cohen or Rachel Riley. Maybe Susanna Reid.

 

YES, I'm watching it too

 

Well they dropped wrestling, so either they should pick it up again, or it shouldn't even be in the running. About 6 countries play baseball to a decent level and I thought softball was just another easier version of it. Squash hasn't been an Olympic sport because it wasn't a spectacle, although it was good enough for the Commonwealth games, so I don't see the problem. Nowadays, everyone can see a game and I believe it is quite watchable [can you tell I don't follow it?]. Plus, the whole world plays squash, and GB are pretty good at it, aswell, so I hear. So, that's settled then. No doubt, Baseball it is.

 

How the **** can you watch that crap.....

 

There's always some rather interesting costumes on some rather nice ladies.

 

The professional ladies are all pretty hot, but that's not enough to convince me to watch it.

 

But don't you want to see Vanessa Feltz wearing pretty much nothing?

 

Oh god, is she on it?
