Formula One Racing

These last few months I’ve really got into Formula One racing. I’ve always been a casual fan of motorsports, but once I dove in to F1 I’ve been hooked. It’s perfect for an early morning riser here in the states as most of the races start at 6 AM every Sunday morning. It’s not the most popular sport over here, but I think it’s gaining popularity with more and more races taking place in the Americas. I’m excited for the new Las Vegas Grand Prix in November. Here’s a short preview on the race, and the details of the preparation. Can’t wait! 😀

The Winter Olympics start Feb 4, are you planning to watch? What are the events that you watch? While I won't set time aside to watch any event, if I happen to catch the Luge to Bobsledding I will watch those, always figured I would like to try Luge but I figure those days are past me. Certainly though, Curling is at the top of mine and @Dodgelist of events to see.

Hello All.... Though I'd share my hobby with you all, as some of you may find it interesting. A few months ago I found my old collection of Matchbox cars from when I was a lad, around 25 years ago. Most of which were play worn and missing any bits of paint. After watching a few guys on youtube, I set about restoring some. After the varying success of my efforts, I bvranched out into buying knackered cars and restoring them as a little weekend hobby. Then after a bit of shopping with my son, I purchased a few Hot wheels cars, and now my son and I collect Hot Wheels together. We don;t want full sets, but we just buy what we like. Which makes today a special d…

Fantasy Olympic Games The Olympics starts on 23rd July and I'm organising a simple fantasy game. To participate you have to pick your own multi-national team made from a selection of the participating nations. You then score points simply based on what medals your nations win, 4 for gold, 2 for silver and 1 for bronze. The final result comes from the final medals table, but I will do regular updates of the scores as the games progress. Pick exactly 5 nations Each nation has been assigned a fantasy value and your team total value can not exceed 100 M$ see next post The values have been worked out in direct prop…

Somewhere to talk about the beautiful game. Its pretty well known that I’m a Leeds fan, this years Championship title is likely to go to either Norwich, Leeds or @Mythaga’s Sheffield Utd so it’s getting pretty tense as the season heads into the final weeks. Leeds are feeling confident after a glorious 4-0 win over 4th place West Brom. Sheffield Utd’s response was a predictably dull 0-0 derby game with the other team from Sheffield. Leeds are playing Sheffield Utd soon, this will be crucial in deciding who gets the second automatic promotion spot. Apparently theres other leagues in English and world football so feel free to talk about them too.

The Last Dance is a 2020 American sports documentary miniseries focusing on the 1997–98 Chicago Bulls. The series features film footage from a crew that had an unprecedented and all-access pass to the Bulls during the National Basketball Association season. A season in which the Bulls were attempting a second Three-peat....or Three Consecutive Championships. They had already had a three-peat from 91-93 and were going for a second one. Why should you watch it? Because as a basketball or NBA fan regardless of who your fave player was or currently is...there is no denying that one of the greatest players to ever play the game is named Michael Jordan. In 1987 a family m…

The Story What I'm Writing

I've always loved writing, and have, in the past, made several attempts to write a book. These all failed. The ideas were good, but I just never kept at it. Recently, however, I had an idea for a story and feel like this is the one. I figure I'll post what I have here now, and the promise of posting further updates will keep me motivated to keep going. Hopefully. So here is my new, ongoing effort. For now it's called The Pig, but that may change. The Pig “It is better to be a human being dissatisfied than a pig satisfied.” John Stuart Mill – Utilitarianism (1863) 1 - The Farm I can remember The Farm now. The lowing of th…

With the world of sport now on hold for many of us there are a few eSports events taking the place of the real thing. Formula 1 have their eSports in full swing now: https://www.formula1.com/en/latest/tags.esports.N0CpHwC3MAUK4iwAEYi6e.html The Grand National in the UK was replaced by a virtual event this year: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=dBwte-Isi3c I know some will despise the idea of ‘replacing’ real life events, but I thought it might be an idea to have a place to share upcoming eSports or Virtual events that may be replacing what is lost due to lockdowns.

USWNT Equal Pay ... Yay or Nay ? 1 2

The four time World Cup Champion, US Women's National Soccer team filed an equal pay in a gender discrimination lawsuit and this week US Soccer lawyers explained why US Soccer feels the US Women's team deserves less wages and should not have equal pay...This is what US Soccer lawyers said: “MNT players routinely play matches (important World Cup qualifiers, in particular) throughout Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean. The WNT does not,” the USSF said. “Opposing fan hostility encountered in these MNT road environments, especially in Mexico and Central America, is unmatched by anything the WNT must face while trying to qualify for an important tournament.

Do we have any basketball fans on the site? I know @zmurko and @Fido_le_muet are into the sport, but surely some of the NA folks must be as well. It has never really my sport. Well, haven't really payed it any attention. But a while ago I came across "Inside the NBA" on Youtube. First, it was just for the entertainment since many of the clips have nothing to do with basketball, just the crew goofing around. Charles Barkley is mighty entertaining to watch. Then I began watching full episodes of the show plus "Open Court" with all the legends and I must say it has gotten my attention now. Recently, I have watched the final playoff matches of last NBA season and I'm ev…

All Elite Wrestling

I don't know if any of you guys are wrestling fans, so you probably haven't heard about the new company, AEW. It was founded recently by wrestlers Cody Rhodes, Matt and Nick Jackson, and Kenny Omega, and they just held their first big show, Double or Nothing, last night. It was friggin' good. If all you know about wrestling is WWE, you should check this out. It's hard to describe why it's better, it just is, especially since the writing and continuity for WWE has been shite for a few years now. It's going to have weekly shows starting soon, on TNT in the US, and ITV in the UK. This is awesome news for me since there hasn't been a proper wrestling show on terrest…

213Rate the Last Film you Watched 2: Electric Boogaloo
Emilia Perez (2024) dir Jaques Audiard A multi award-nominated musical about a Mexican drug baron who always felt they were a woman born in a man's body. She fakes her own death and has gender reassignment, plus a lot of other plastic surgery, to start a new, better, life in a new identify. She is assisted in all this by her lawyer, Rita and tries to re-establish some sort of relationship with her wife Jessi and kids. Emilia is played by Karla Sofia Gascon (a trans woman) and has been nominated for best leading actress in the Oscars and Baftas. But I would say it is Zoe Saldana, as Rita, who is the main character. Both she and Selana Gomez, as Jessi, have picked up (supporting actress) nominations, as has the director, makeup artists, composers, producers, writers and others in technical roles. It could win all of those. I don't think it will, but I haven't seen that many films released last year yet. It seems to be one that you either love or hate. I suspect a lot of the hate is coming from people who are anti-trans and can't see past that aspect of the film. I liked it, the music and cinematography in particular. The acting was good, but I'm not sure if it was award-winningly good. I also think the script could have been better. It's just over 2 hours long but because it has so many musical scenes that, as is usually case in musicals, don't advance the plot the way spoken dialogue would, it felt to me like it ought to have been longer to fill in some missing details. The musical numbers were good though, sort of similar to a Baz Lurhman film, in that the actors singing them do not necessarily have a great singing voice but also with some scenes that just burst into a massive dancing and singing show that then goes back to dialogue afterwards. And a lot of it is not musical at all. There were a couple of cheesy scenes; one in-particular in a Thai gender reassignment clinic that Rita is checking out before finding the right one, did not make much sense to me. Maybe they were trying to say “this is the popular image of a s*x-change clinic, but in reality it's something far more serious”? Another slightly weak plot element is that Jessi does not recognise her former husband after the surgery. Of course that surgery has made some massive physical changes, that was the point, but even so, would you not pick up on some characteristics of a person you have been married to for years and had kids with? I can forgive that though, put it down to artistic license, in the same way I forgive William Shakespeare frequently making his characters unrecognisable to their friends and family just by doing their hair different and wearing a hat! 8 / 10- 3
