  Humbug (Getting old....)

  It's less than three hours 'til Christmas and I feel less Christmassy than Scrooge himself.

  Nevertheless, I hope you all enjoy yourselves over the festive period. Don't eat too much, drive safely on icy roads and have a drink for me As long as it's non-alcoholic of course

  World Cup 2010

  And it's over. Only seems like yesterday it began. All in all it wasn't too bad. The results certainly could have been better and I'm rather annoyed at the attitudes people took towards Suarez "Ruining the dreams a continent" and the Dutch for playing a regressive, aggressive shtyle of football. Vamos Espana and well done. A good result and deserved too.

  Denny_Carmassi's meaningless awards! Remember, this is all my opinion, you don't have to agree with it.

  Player of the tournament:

  It has to be the actual winner of the Golden Ball, Diego Forlan. Outstanding.

  

  
  

  Goal of the tournament:

  Siphiwe Tshabalala against Mexico. The first goal of the tournament and in my opinion the best. I'm not counting free kicks, else Forlan would have won twice.

  Celebration of the tournament:

  It has to be Tshabalala again, right after that goal was scored.

  Young Player of the tournament:

  Mesut Ozil of Germany. He played very well, and I expect teams will be queuing up to sign him now.

  

  Honourable Mention

  Ryan Nelsen, for being perhaps the most determined player in the whole tournament. His team fought an uphill struggle and he never gave in, until he physically couldn't give any more. And was yellow carded for having the audicity to have cramp.

  

  The Dream Team:

  GK: Casillas (ESP)

  RB: Salcido (MEX)

  CB: Friedrich (GER), Puyol (ESP)

  LB: Fucile (URU)

  RM: Donovan (USA)

  CM: Honda (JAP) Gargano (URU)

  LM: Ozil (GER)

  ST: Forlan (URU), Hernandez (MEX)

  Subs : Khune (GK, RSA) Ramos (RB/RM, ESP) Nelsen (CB, NZL) Cahill (CM/CAM AUS) Pienaar (CM, RSA) Iniesta (CM, ESP) Suarez (ST, URU) Villa (ST, ESP)

  Wall of Shame:

  Van Bommel. If you saw any match with him in it, it should be obvious.

  

  Arjen Robben

  About time I made a blog...

  I find I have nothing to blog about. I mean, who seriously wants to hear about my life, what I'm up to and my opinions. No one, that's who. If you said otherwise...just no.

  I've been going over my old blogs from when I properly started using this site, around March 2006. I was such a n00b. I seemed to think being stuck in snow was the worst thing ever and notable, as was French homework. Thank god I've personally discovered cynicism since then.

  I started learning to drive today, after an "insightful" lesson from my Dad about how an engine works. Seriously, he refused to let me in the driver's seat until I could explain the workings of an engine. And I've forgotten it already. Something about fuel injection and pistons. That man boggles me sometimes. Still, my experience was odd. The throttle seems really sensitive as opposed to the other pedals, and I stalled like every two minutes. Thankfully it was only in a car park.

  I got me a Last.fm Add me up!

  I've realised that every paragraph of this blog so far has started with I. How pretentious and narcissistic of me.

  This one will be different. See, it totally was.

  And now comes the realisation that almost four years on from my first GameSpot blog, I'm no different. I still blog about nonsense that affects no one and no one really cares about.
