Rethink needed in country football August 29, 2008 · Comment Aaron’s comment and a discussion I had today made me think about the state of country football. You read and hear about the success stories and sometimes about the total failures, but you don’t often learn about the clubs that are struggling.

Today I had to sit through a particular kind of training program related to University - essentially it’s to teach me to be a mentor.

AFL Football’s ArenaBowl XXII is this Sunday By: Seth Edward O'Neal In case you didn’t know. Because we certainly didn’t. The Arena Football League is ready to culminate their season with ArenaBowl XXII this Sunday.

Former NFL player Kenyatta Jones is having a year to forget. First, he was arrested in March for battery on a law enforcement officer. Jones was being escorted by security from a nightclub for attempting to piss on the dance floor when he shoved an officer into a wall and was eventually tasered.

Fast approaching the end of the Australian football season (the league is the ‘Australian Football League’), so it’s appropriate to have the basics of the rules explained…

As you may know I am a fan of Australian Rules Football.  I was born and raised in Boston, but yet I still love Aussie Rules.   I have been following it for a number of years now.  I barrack for the Western Bulldogs (you don’t root for a team in Australia as ‘root’ is slang for something consenting adults do in their bedroom).
