Randomest Super Bowl Moment – The Flava Flav-Tom Coughlin Victory Hug

Has has the pursuit of sporting glory ever united two more disparate personalities? Terminator X telegraphed his congratulations to the Mara family late last evening.

Giselle Defends Tom Brady With F Bombs

After being hounded on her out of her luxury box at the Super Bowl last night, Giselle apparently said: “My husband cannot fucking throw the ball and catch the ball at the same time. I can’t believe they dropped the ball so many times.”

She hates Welker too.

[Oh yes, we are getting our content from Piers Morgan now.]

Eamon Zayed Is Goal.com’s World Footballer Of The Week

Certainly the first Irishman to win this little-known distinction. Hattricks in the Tehran derby will do that for you.

Proof That, Yes, The Rubber Bandits Were F’n And Blindin’ Upon Croke Park’s Sacred Surface

YouTube Preview Image

There’s a few videos featuring rather crap audio of the Rubber Bandits at Croke Park on Saturday night, but as far as we’re concerned, this 50 second clip provides definitive proof that the Rubber Bandits cursed their way through that song of theirs about the horse with all the curse in it. Davy Fitz would be proud. I think the Irish public vetoed the right to complain about the music at Croke Park the moment it allowed the likes of Westlife and Take That to sully the holy temple of GAA. Michael Hogan has already had a few spins in the grave at this stage. I think he’d just be confused who Billie Piper is.

De Gea’s Silent Message To The Haters

That’s some digit.

The Will Ferrell Super Bowl Ad For Old Milwaukee Beer Is Alright

This ad aired, apparently, only for the kindly people of North Platte, Nebraska. Old Milwaukee is a beer not dissimilar to Pabst Blue Ribbon. Maybe hipsters will be onto it now.

Don’t Cry For Tom Brady

As you may know, Brady hasn’t won a Super Bowl since he first became enmeshed in Giselle. I’d say he gets over the hurt of losing pretty quickly.

Are These The Best Nine Minutes In The History Of RTÉ Sport?

We say maybe.

YouTube Preview Image

They’re the last 10 minutes of RTE’s coverage of Ireland-Italy in the World Cup.

Here’s why:

  1. Mick McCarthy’s crotch, say hello to a national TV audience. Also, note his shin pads.
  2. The strange studio where the interview was conducted. Will Trap and Robbie treat us to anything this intimate this summer when we go out?
  3. The utter disgust from Jack and Mick, but also their naive ‘we could have won the whole tournament’ vibe.
  4. A first-rate ‘sayonnara Ireland’ montage cut to an English-version of Piaf ‘No n’regrette rien’ featuring many shots of the godly face of Jack and a bit randomly, Ray Houghton’s goal against England in Euro 88.
  5. Giddy Martin O’Neill
  6. No Dunphy.
  7. Billo namechecking the pilot of the Aer Lingus flight taking the lads home.
