Kicking for a China Bowl dream. bugmenot: ihateyou/ password: losers The NFL is paying former Notre Dame kicker and longtime mercenary Nick Setta to train four Chinese Nationals to kick Field Goals. The two most successful will be on the sidelines, available for duty, for the August pre-season matchup between New England and Seattle, which is to be played in Beijing.

Heineken Cup in doubt It seems that the future of the Heineken Cup may be uncertain as French clubs may be siding with English ones and refusing to sign up to the competition unless certain details are altered. The board of European Rugby Cup has been due to be held this week; this has now been postponed until next month.

Well, Ulster and Munster both won it. So Ireland has had some success there. English/French clubs are jealous of us. ;)

Sh ane Warne announces his retirement. "I don't think I could have written my script any better. I thought I'd be sad, but I sit here a happy man." He has 699 test wickets to his name (and two test matches left to become the first person ever to take 700). The first ball he ever delivered in the Ashes (in 1993) has become known as the ball of the century.

"World's Oldest Hockey Stick" goes for $2.2 million! The curved hunk of hickory, believed to have been carved between 1852 and 1856, was purchased by an anonymous bidder. The purchase price will go to charity. Here's a shock: a Canadian bought it.

English flags banned at the Emirates. That's the Emirates Stadium; Arsenal's home stadium.

Arsenal stadium linked to death of former KGB agent Alexander Litvinenko. Andrei Lugovoi, a former KGB officer who met Litvinenko on November 1, the day he was taken ill, travelled to London on October 31 with his wife and family to watch CSKA Moscow play Arsenal in a Champions League fixture. Litvinenko was poisoned with a radioactive substance, polonium 210.

Obit for Dessie Yesterday the great grey chaser Desert Orchid died at the age of 27. In his racing career he was a horse that was famous even outside the "horsey set". And deservedly so, foaled in 1979 he had an impressive career with 34 wins from 71 races

Legally blind woman, 94, bowls a 244. Of course this was her 2nd highest score for the season.

Amazing. I wish I could bowl like that.

Classless Chelsea Michael Henderson isn't too fond of Chelsea and their desire to be a 'brand leader' in the premiership.
Status is not something you can buy over the counter at the grocer's, like a bag of King Edward's. 'I'll have half-a-pound of tradition, please, and throw in a few slices of heritage while you're at it. Oh, and some turnips, for Michael Ballack'. It is something that develops incrementally over decades of achievement.

As a Gooner Fan, I hate Chelsea's 'Johnny Come Lately' attitude. Latest; 0-0.
