    DC I think it has more to do with the Greek/Roman tradition of the sun god, Sol Invictus and the winter solstice occurring around December 25. The celebration of Sol Invictus was the 25th and celebrated the rebirth of the sun and was co-opted by the Christians as the birth date for JC in the 4th century I believe but happy to be corrected!

    that may well be for the italians, but not the northern europeans

    the winter solstice was celebrated differently by different pagan cultures

    xmas just conveniently usurped them all

    ...........and if scores were level late in a game the aforementioned fence-sitter would exclaim : " I tipped this , Butch " .

    I thought it was a rip-off of the Jewish festival of Hannukah which has all the essential ingredients like candles, chocolate and commencing on the 25th day of the month.

    Whatever... a Merry Christmas and a Happy Hannukah to all.

    • PREVIEW: Brisbane

      They really had me fooled when I picked them with great confidence to beat the Bombers at Gather Round last week. I should have recognised that nothing is more quintessentially Melbourne than defeating the undefeated early premiership favourite one week and losing to a winless cellar dweller on its way to establishing a record losing streak the next.
