Why I'm backing Tiger Woods
12 Apr 2013Should Tiger Woods break one of the longest droughts of his career and clinch the 2013 US Masters, he has every right to indulge himself in a marathon hotel orgy with 100 carefully selected Atlanta hookers and US$40,000 worth of Perrier Jouët.

While the “I can’t live in a world where (insert scenario)” refrain is overly dramatic and somewhat self-aggrandising, it is, however, an increasingly common saying in this bizarre, modern world we live in. In fact, I dexterously employ [...]
Why Clarke needs to move up the batting order
7 Dec 2012There’s no doubt that Michael Clarke will continue to plunder flagging, tired attacks for thousands more runs, should he continue to hide down the batting order. But as captain of the Australian test team – and in the wake of Ricky Ponting’s retirement – it is now time for Clarke to acknowledge that rather than [...]
