As part of the re-birth I’ve just deleted all the duplicate posts that were left over from the oxenshizer migration, and what do you know but today is the 1 year anniversary of Beer and Sport Blogging!
And what a year it’s been in my sporting world. The Waratahs beat all Aussie competition and came second in the Super 14 so I followed them to Christchurch. The Wallabies came within a Kaplan of clinching the Tri-Nations, the Baggy Greens won all their Test series, the NSW Bluetongues won the Pura Cup, and Manly won the NRL! (Go Beaver!)
Sounds like as good an excuse as any to blow one’s own trumpet, so here’s the highlights package of the 111 blog posts I’ve delivered in my time at the crease. While I seemed to go several weeks with barely an update, my average is 2 posts per week which I’m fairly happy with.
It all began with my first post that had my mission statement and a list of interests that I may or may not write about. True to my work I have put shit on Queenslanders and Vegetarians, though I’ve let men who wear pink shirts off pretty lightly so far so will have to address this as I kick on towards the double century.
My most popular entry of the year was this one where I compiled a few clips of the spirit in which Inida play their cricket. A massive 14 comments were well received, though nothing on the thousands of racially motivated comments on youtube. I thought Western Force supporters were fickle but the Indian’s are truly world class in the dummy spitting department.
So, one year down, hopefully many more to go. I intend to keep up the style of polarising opinion with my unique spin on the sporting and drinking worlds, and look forward to comments and involvement from you, my readers. And feedburner says I’ve got 17 subscribers so it’s not falling on deaf ears!
Cheers,
Moses.
No point in coming 2nd in the Super 14 if you can’t knock over the 12-toed bigots.
Happy Birthday
Thanks LB, how many toes does Deans have?
Deans would definitely be a 12-toes. He can (proudly) trace his family back to the First 4 Ships.
Strangely, that gives you Social Status points in the Village of the Dammed. Seriously.
So that’s getting on for 180 years of inbreeding now.
BTW, you can pick all that by looking at his cheeks.
