Off Topic thread *time to say goodbye*

I have never, nor will I ever, listen to that Jedward song. I couldnt do it. That fireflies song is desperate though, jesus the muck that passes as music these days. I've often wondered, if Paul, John, Ringo and George walked out to audition for the x factor or whatever, how far would they get? If you close your eyes and listen to the music these days, there is nothing that makes anyone stand out. They are all generic ***** who couldn't write a note, let alone a number 1 song.

I was thinking about pure taking the piss and writing a song, and sending it to Sony to see if they would like it. Something that would go down well on the radio and in clubs. Just to see would they reply

"yeaahhhh, we're goin to the pub, we're goin to the club, we're goin to have a drink, then we're going to dance and say ooooOOOOOOhhhhHHHhHhHhHh"

Poetry. Yeats himself would be in awe

My TV3 tuned itself out :P

Thats a great idea;)

I went to look for a stream for Man City's game against Stoke (being a Pool fan, this is an important game). 5 mins into the stream, there's no sound, about 20 seconds of movement and 4.40 of watching Wayne Bridge's face when the camera/sream got stuck on him. Damn Champions League for taking over all the good streams:mad::mad::(

3-1 :eek::eek::eek: who needs Ronaldo

Diabhal Beag

Not Lyon thats for sure

D2D

3-2 now, Seedorf with a cheeky flick to finish. Great game, hopefully the return leg will be of the same standard

Stopped watching a few minutes ago but they were dominating the defense for long periods. Madrid were coming back though. Look out of Makoun's brilliant goal.

Wayne Rooney is the white Pele. That is all.

Thank God this game is on UTV as well. Hamiltons pronounciation is a complete headwreck.

Aye I like a punt and Bubs moderates the Betting forum so I assume he has some interest in it.

I have been on a horrid run recently especially with my rugby betting.
Whats your tips for the GAA this week Ger?
I was told by three different people to lump on Wicklow -4 v Leitrim the other sunday and I forgot. :(
They won by 7 points in the end!

Stop, I havent won in a few weeks, I could really do with a good weekend of it.

I did up an accumulator with Tipp, Cork, Galway and Dublin. Cork and Galway are heavy favourites. Tipp and Dublin are underdogs. Tipp are playing a Kilkenny team that will be missing a lot of key players who are being rested for the All-Ireland club final. Shefflin, Cha and a few others. Waterford are playing Dublin, and for some reason, Waterford are pratically starting their b team fo it.

Ben Rothwell is 5/4 to beat Cro-Cop in the UFC too. Cro-Cop is done, theres no excuse for him being favourite.

Any tips yourself? Liverpool to loose tonight :pac:

I'm not the only one on it either

Dubs at 6/4 seems very good indeed

No I will think of a few tomorrow, I dunno about putting Galway in your accum at 1/25 as it wont add much to any potential winnings. Surely Cork or Wexford would be a little more rewarding? :eek:

Thanks for the Dublin heads up, I might throw a few pennies on that. :cool:

Ah shur I know but I said I'd lob them in anyway.

I'll be up in Semple rooting my boys on Saturday night anyway. I get a fiver off a friend if we beat KK by more than 5 points. I'd say twas the drink that was in me that made that bet though, but shur we'll see

Bisping and Ben Rothwell would be good bets to me even if I would prefer Silva and Cro Cop to win.
