  1. Society needs continual reminders about the horror of tattoos.
  2. Is that really the real Denis Cometti's Twitter?
  3. "what would Stephen Dank have to gain from doping his players?" is straight out of the spin manual. Turn around the allegation with a rhetorical question aimed at the allegation. It both avoids an answer and allows you to either jump away from the allegation or redefine the allegation so that you can fob it off with a pat answer. If there is no follow up question it's move-along-now, nothing-to-see.
  4. Go back through Holmes' Twitter feed or Google "Tracey Holmes Essendon" and you'll find it's obvious why the Hird camp picked her to conduct the interview. I can't think of a sports journalist who has been more one-sided towards the Essendon side of the rumpus.
  5. A Russian bomber is a Tupolev or a Yak.
  6. Mono, you redefined my comparison so that you could invent a flaw in an analogy I did not make. I made no mention of the comparative legality. My comparison holds up just fine - it is clearly between two entities which were eventually pinged for doing what others had been doing, only more flagrantly.
  7. I have to disagree with this disagreement.
  8. What happened at Essendon with supplements is similar to what happened at Melbourne with tanking. To whit, every club was doing it, but eventually one club overdid it and made it impossible for the authorities to pretend "nothing happening here".
  9. Matthews copped heaps, took it, gave it back, won matches, won B&Fs, won premierships. I wish he played for Melbourne.
  10. There are more "superstars" than "stars" now.
  11. Teeing up Boxing Day at the cricket.
  12. I can't cop Kevin "Bloody" Hillier droppin' his Gs. Andy Maher does it too.
  13. Larry was the only Fine (Feinberg) in the Three Stooges. The other two were Howards (Horwitz).
  14. The proof of the pudding is in Pandora's box.
  15. The Tigers remind me of Melbourne in 2006.
  16. Does Landsberger barrack for Essendon or Carlton, or is he just sucking up to a couple of big clubs?
  17. We all know Melbourne's, ahem, unfortunate draft history. What is less appreciated is the herd mentality's massive exaggeration about that first tackle on Watts.
  18. Display name for Tea. But what happens if there is a space (or odd character) in your display name?
  19. PS: Gimme grunt, power, size, strength.
  20. I wear bamboo socks.
  21. Under the reigns? That almost works.
  22. Footy is lies.
  23. Titus and Larry are both excellent. Titus also does a podcast with Sergio Paradise, which is well worth your 20-odd minutes.
  24. Nickname sorted: "Epi" Didymus.
