    Great sportsmanship

    This story warmed the cockles of my heart and made me smile. In a time and age where finding decent role models in the world of sports is getting scarcer by the day, these young girls showed the world that no-one is bigger than the game itself. That true sportsmen (and women!) play for the...

    Which super hero are you?

    Heh. Just so happens that he is my favourite super-hero. He's all human - no super natural powers and stuff. He's flawed - he has his dark past. He's often misunderstood. Hence why he's completely believable. Who would you be? cheers, PS: Next guy on the list was Captain Jack Sparrow :D
