I'm talking about the All Blacks meeting Ireland in the Rugby World Cup Quarter Final.
Oops, sorry. That's Portugal beating Fiji. |
Well, once I was watching an All Blacks match on TV and Shelley asked, "Which ones are the All Blacks?" I lied and told her they were the team in red. She was happy.
Some people just don't care about rugby. I know Robert is not really a fan. Fair enough. It really is a lot of well paid young men chasing a ball. In the past I have been guilty of taking it too seriously and I still do enjoy watching a game. The reality though is that it won't be the end of the world if the All Blacks lose tomorrow.
The end of the world. |
Actually, that's quite a popular saying these days, "It's not the end of the world."
Not many things are more serious than the end of the world.
Here's a list of things that are less important...
- Running out of double bass rosin.
- Being a bit low on toilet paper.
- Wetting your pants.
- Being late for a show.
- Missing mass.
- Losing a game of tennis or golf.
- Breaking a violin string.
- Losing a sock.
- Getting paint on your shirt.
- Finding that your car has a flat battery.
- Knocking over a cup of coffee.
He's a bit bigger than this now. |

And these are the things you did just this morning.
Sheesh!
I called Lynn unpatriotic when she wouldn't get out of bed to watch the last All Blacks match and again when she again showed no interest in the Scotland match.
What's wrong with some people?
Yes, the endless commentary and surmising on the NZ vs Ireland match is getting a bit tiresome.
I want NZ to win but if they don't - then it's only a game. There'll be more to watch later.
I think I'd better get a Sky Pass for this one.
I have my Sky Pass. I'm ready to go.

Hopefully you'll be able to watch all four quarter finals:
Sunday
Wales v Argentina (4:00am)
Ireland v New Zealand (8:00am)
Monday
England v Fiji (4:00am)
France v South Africa (8:0am)
Thanks.
You should have done what I did - bought a pass for the whole tournament over 2 months. It was $79 I think and I can just watch as many games as I want.
Tomorrow I’m getting up early at 4 am (Robert’s working start) and will watch the first two quarter finals.. on Monday I’ll do the same and watch the second two.
Upstairs for thinking (downstairs for dancing).
Say hello to brothers Barry and Paul for me.
Nothing happening on this blog. I’d better write a post of my own.
