[Other Sport] Today = SPORT How about a 'live' teleprompter thread?

Stat Brother · Jul 11, 2019

It feels like we should have thread somewhat akin to a 'live' teleprompter running today, instead of jumping around different threads missing stuff.
It might also be handy for the poor saps chained to their desk at work!

Men's semi day (which is nice) at Wimbledon.
Possibly the stand out day of this years Tour.
&
Cricket World Cup men's semi (2 in one day! )

AUSTRALIA WIN THE TOSS AND WILL BAT

Must admit I used to quite enjoy the live chat on here when we were playing away

Should this post have been on the 'backdoor man' thread ?

Isn't it women's semi-final day at Wimbledon, not men's?

Mellotron · Jul 11, 2019

Problem with that is I’m only fussed about the cricket.

Didn’t think about [MENTION=12101]Mellotron[/MENTION] when you made this suggestion, did you eh?

But I did think of those currently rolling their eyes at the inclusion of bicycles:-

The final 20 minutes look like this:-

I nearly promise it will be spectacular viewing.

You seem to be implying I can't spout bollox on here...

...a challenge I gratefully accept.

Not the worst analogy, other than The Plank of The Pretty Ladies is 7kms long.
At no point is the gradient shallower than the steepest part of Ditching Beacon.

1066familyman has Pinot winning at @6/1
I have Dan Martin @20/1

Stat Brother · Jul 11, 2019

No point having a live chat, none of today's sport is going to overlap. :lol:

Or me as I’d rather watch a women’s game of football than a cricket match so I do not want updates on the cricket thanks, as I don’t suffer from insomnia :wink:

Point of order. I do not have Pinot winning at 6/1. I think he will win, but I prefer betting small amounts on longer odds. I can see no value for today as it's a nailed on GC stage.

Instead... I have Pinot winning the WHOLE THING @ 18/1 :thumbsup:

Who do you fancy at long odds today, Rusty Woods?

Bernal or Pinot aren't long enough for me to bother with :wink:

a couple of times, after a quiet reflective drink, I've walked up to the crematorium and thought, 'If I make it, I might as well stay here with my friend."

Having ridden that climb I can tell you it is a BEAST. Went out for the first time it was used in a TdF stage and it nearly killed me riding up. That the pros rode it in about 12 minutes at the end of 100+ mile stage in sweltering heat made me realise how superhuman they are.
