This should be... interesting! I wonder if he'll actually play it straight and surprise everyone?

 

I'm hoping for a Pattonesque cover of this rendition...

 

He pulled out apparently. Wasn't feeling great. Not very rock n' roll.

England currently collapsed to 54/7 against the Windies

 

77 all out pathetic

 

The Windies bowled well, but it was nothing exceptional.
England can't bat defensively when required. Always looking to play shots when they should be trying to keep out the good balls. Chances will come to score with the bad balls.

What he put his body through to increase his strength, stamina and agility over the last 10 years would make most people run a mile.

 

Congratulations to Naomi Osaka on winning a Grand Slam without getting overshadowed by an entitled crybaby at the other end of the court throwing a temper tantrum

 

Here's a sentence that 99% of the world's population will use at some point in the next week

"I don't give a **** about the Super Bowl"

 

George Groves has announced his retirement from boxing.
I never liked the Chelsea twat and he's at least one fight too late, but it's nice to see a boxer bow out before he's a total wreck.
He had some exciting bouts and I'm sure he'll continue with his ringside appearances for years.

 

A catch?
Nah, THIS is a catch!!!

Wow.
Could do his batting right now too

 

England rugby fans singing that one bloody song they know? Must mean they're at least ten points up with five minutes to go...

 

Great win though, the team need to back it up over the rest of the championship now. That, and keep players fit.

 

Also teach their supporters not be be utterly lifeless for 75 minutes (or 80 minutes if they're losing...)

 

Yeah the atmosphere created by the England fans can be a bit suspect. Usually the away games at Scotland, Ireland, France and Wales have the best though to be fair, it didn’t sound like the Aviva was exactly bouncing today. Twickenham can feel a bit subdued at the best of times.

I was at England/Wales in Cardiff a few years back and that was one of the best atmospheres at a sporting event I’ve experienced. Helped that England won of course!

 

Oh yeah, the old slave song.
Just to remind us of the Empire.
