We do think alike! I hate all those teams, too. and BAltimore is only an hour away and is our other home team. I can't stand that murderer Ray Lewis. I understand about the Packers. It has to be done. LOL! I've been to Soldier Field for the very last Grateful Dead concert, a month before Jerry Garcia died, but never for a game. I did go to Wrigley and Comiskey for baseball. We'll pool our money and meet halfway, say Hawaii for the Pro Bowl, since I don't have enough money to get down under. Maykbe I can get my brother to fly me down since the ************** will be loaded with cash for moving to Perth on Monday and having all his living expenses paid. I knew I should have paid attention in college instead of hiding in the back reading the racing form LOL

hey saratoga,

when I was in Vancouver a couple of years ago I went to a Bruins ice hockey match....whoooh! what a game! I am sure that if we had a different climate here in Oz everyone would be a fan.
The hype and the action certainly gets the spectators involved although the $75 cost for a ticket made us blink(ie. when converted into our "pacific pesos")!
There are only relatively minor competitions here in Australia but I can catch some games on FoXSports. I'll have to think about betting on some games in the future.

Cheers.

Excellent X -man! The Bruins are the rivals of my favorite team in all of sports-The MONTREAL CANADIENS!!!! My dad's cousin played for them back in the 40's and was the MAN! He was a goalie( "A" goalie?-like saying PHAR LAP is "A" horse!) He won six Vezina Trophies for Best Goalie in NHL outof seven years!!!!

He didn't start playing until he was 27-in nhl. SO his career was short, otherwise alot of hcokey experts say he would have been the best of all time! He still was ranked #36 best hockey player in the history of the NHL by the hockey news!!! He's in the hall of fame and all that..... His name was "Big" Bill Durnan. He was quite an odd ball! LOL Put his name in the computer and check him out..... I always get stuff on E-Bay.... I'd love to check out Aussie hockey. I know a professional Aussie figure skater named Gary Irving who lives here in Delaware and now teaches skating. His wife is hot!!!

I used to really like the NHL there a few years back but because of the strike and the lack of coverage over here it is hard to really keep up with it all that well. I know I could go to the website but it isn't the same as seeing the games. I was a Blackhawks fan guess once I started following the Bears I adopted the Cubs & Blackhawks I cannot stand basketball so I would never have been a Bulls fan but I was a Michael Jordan fan he was a freak. Worst part is my history of following sports teams obviously none of those have won anything since I have been following them I amnot that ************ old. I have been a Tigers fan in the NRL here and have managed to witness them lose 2 gand finals 16 years ago and they haven't been back since. Liverpool in the English Premier League are the only team to win anything 1 FA Cup 1 European Cup and 1 Champions League, The later was ther greatest though that was an awesome game.

CELTIC!!!! Raw CELTIC!!!!! Ooh ahh up

Did you get anything on Shasta , raw.

No mate backed it on the nose pretty ordinary ride I thought it should have won but hey you get that.

I don't want to tell you waht the 3-12 exacta paid over here.

At least your Premier League team have won something while you have supported them, i started supporting Newcastle United in 94/95 when i was 14 and i don't need to tell you what happened the following season!!! plus any season after that especially the start of this season, sorry about stealing Owen away from ya's :D

I really hope the Tigers do it for ya this year Raw, i'm a Penrith supporter have been since i was born, and you guys remind me so much of us in 2003, sorry about last week :D

Oh yeah by the way guess which NFL team i support, yep thats right Green Bay, go the cheeseheads!!!!!

Besides that i support the Swannies in the AFL, hopefully we can knock of the Saints this week.

So anyway Raw not going much better then you with supporting teams, Penrith 2 premierships in 25 years of supporting, Newcastle United zilch in 10 years with 2 F.A Cup losses, Swannies zilch in 10 years with 1 grand final loss, and Green Bay with a few Superbowl wins in 10 years.

Testa, your cheeseheads are on at 6 am monday from what i hear (on tv).

Talk about an old school black and blue NFC matchup (Detroit and GB)!

I really love Brett Favre now eveb though used to route against him (49'ers fan!). Down to earth Mississippi boy who's lived the blues and can tough it out. Love that guy!
