    What I noticed today was that the BBC had the rugby (minority sport for public schoolboys) broadcast in HD but the FA Cup (national sport) broadcast in tulipty normal digital/anlogue. Hmmmmm... I wonder why....
    If you can demonstrate that Soccer is either national or a sport, then you might have a point. A lot of people watch it because it's the only so-called sport the redtops talk about and it gets saturation coverage. Plus it's a simple game for simple folk, and appeals to those with tribal tendencies.

    I enjoy the game of football, but the intemperate, selfish media-frenzy that is League Soccer is the biggest con this country has ever seen.

    As for being a minority sport for public schoolboys, I suggest you drag yourself away from your widescreen Setanta, go visit a club rugby match and look at the spectators - who, incidentally, will likely have a beer in their hands and won't have been coralled into baying herds in case they attack anyone.
    Blog? What blog...?

                Scots, wha hae wi' Wallace bled,
                Scots, wham Bruce has aften led,
                Welcome to your gory bed,
                Or to Victorie!

                Now's the day, and now's the hour;
                See the front o' battle lour;
                See approach proud Edward's power-
                Chains and Slaverie!

                Wha will be a traitor knave?
                Wha can fill a coward's grave?
                Wha sae base as be a Slave?
                Let him turn and flee!

                Wha, for Scotland's King and Law,
                Freedom's sword will strongly draw,
                Free-man stand, or Free-man fa',
                Let him on wi' me!

                By Oppression's woes and pains!
                By your Sons in servile chains!
                We will drain our dearest veins,
                But they shall be free!

                Lay the proud Usurpers low!
                Tyrants fall in every foe!
                Liberty's in every blow!-
                Let us Do or Die!
