Snooker: No characters, but plenty of entertainment

Posted on 21 April 2010 by Ben Greenwood

This post contains videos or video linksWe know we’ve talked about snooker a lot recently – such is the interest during – and ONLY during – the World Championships, and while we’ve bemoaned the lack of characters and celebrated the return of the sport’s Golden Age, we should point out that snooker does still have some entertaining moments.

Alright, not many of them on the baize these days. But in the audience and behind the scenes? Yeah, you can still enjoy yourself. Check out these two videos from the BBC for proof.

Keep your eye on the Beeb for this sort of stuff, it can occasionally be comedy gold.

YCNMIU #4: Scientists look for winning World Cup chant

Posted on 19 April 2010 by Ben Greenwood

Don’t ask me why, but a team of scientists in Brighton are wiring up football fans with electrodes in a bid to try and come up with the best chant to use at the World Cup.

That the words “scientist”, “electrodes” and even “Brighton” should never be used in the same sentence as “football” is bad enough. That there are football fans willing to be linked to machinery and measurement equipment in this ridiculous “experiment” (a word used often by Chelsea, Liverpool and England to little effect, you might remember) just makes it worse.

“The idea is we wanted to identify the power of the 12th man and do something to help England win the World Cup.

“We hope it will catch on with fans on the terraces and we can do something to help the team.”

Said crazed Brighton boffin Duncan Smith. Mate, it won’t. Or if it does we don’t know what the World (Cup) is coming to.

Still, I suppose it beats putting mascara on rabbits or trying to find out how many corn flakes you can put in a hamster til it explodes. Or does it?

Posted on 16 April 2010 by Ben Greenwood

Saw this on Facebook and had to share it with you:

David Blaine is reported to be absolutely gutted that his record of spending 42 days doing f*** all in a box has been broken by Dimitar Berbatov.

Ithangyew…

EDIT: Oh, and another…

The cause of the volcanic ash cloud currently stopping air travel across Europe has been discovered. Police have arrested the Man City/Arsenal/Liverpool* trophy cabinet cleaner.

Friday’s are good fun, aren’t they!

That classic goal celebration at Manchester City by Jimmy Bullard, mimicking his manager’s rather unfortunate public telling off of his team during the same game last year, captured by Hull City supporter Liam Hanley (we assume!). Enjoy!
