Yet again I have to write something about this amazing handballplayer! Despite his 30 cigarettes a day he still deliveres! Yesterday he, almost on his own, won the game between Denmark and Croatia at the European Championships in Austria.
Just wanna say what an incredible player he is! And I do think Croatia, yet again, will [...]

For the first time in ten years, AIK, wins the Swedish league premier league Allsvenskan. My deepest congratulations and joy! One of my four favorite teams wins this year, the other ones are Oakland A’s, Brann and West Ham, so you could see why I’m happy!
But, Allsvenskan, compared to Europe, is one of the [...]

The morons ruining swedish football!
October 7th, 2009 · No Comments · Sports
It has become quite clear that the morons calling themselves supporters are more and more destroying the fun of watching football in Sweden. Last week the chairman of Hammarby (one of the big clubs in Stockholm) resigned because of death threats. I mean, what on earth are these people thinking about? How could you expect [...]

ØHIL Royals, the baseball team for Bærum, are in a 0-2 hole in the Norwegian championships against the defending champions Oslo Pretenders. A good video article from Budstikka tells you why:
Usain Bolt

I had plan to write a hot lof of stuff regarding the elections here in Norway, but when I saw Usain Bolt last night, that kind of performance deserves a blog post on it’s own! What can you say, except wow! This must be one of the single most impressive sports performances ever, shattering the [...]

Yesterday, in one of the biggest rivaliries in sports, the game between by Boston Red Sox and New York Yankees, the centerfielder from Boston Red Sox Jacoby Ellsbury, stole homeplate! This sure is a rare thing – and it’s so fun to watch!
Now I’m just waiting for the speedsters in Oakland A’s to do the [...]

April 19th, 2009 · No Comments · Sports
On my way to see Brann-Vålerenga in the Norwegian Tippeliga, and the morons strikes here in Norway. A huge fight just outside the Nationalteatret subway station – about 50 people.
I don’t have anything else that despise and hatred for these people, they are destroying everything about football!
Now I’m looking forward to see Brann take it’s [...]

To be honest, I don’t dare to guess, my guesses last year was so terrible, but some predictions entering the 2009 season:
New York Yankees will miss the postseason again, Red Sox and Rays will be strong! Rich Harden will [...]

Baseball in crisis, again
February 9th, 2009 · No Comments · Sports
I read this article yesterday, written by ESPN senior writer Jayson Stark, about Sports Illustrated article Alex Rodriguez tested positive for steroids in 03.
Mr Stark is very angry and I do agree, like he says in his article “In baseball, we love our numbers. And we love our heroes. And that brings us to [...]

How could it happen?
January 27th, 2009 · 3 Comments · Sports
Norway lost against Poland in a decisive game at Handball World Championships. Two goals up with two minutes to go – I was quite convinced Norway was in the semifinals. .
But it didn’t happen – Kristian Kjelling, probably Norways best player so far during the Championships, lost it in the final seconds, and all dreams [...]

The Brazilian superstar Ricardo Kaka refused to go from Milan to Manchester City,despite The Premier League club’s audacious bid to sign the Brazilian star in a £100million-plus deal.
He was happy where he is. Two points, his making a huge marketing impact as one of the few sports superstars saying no to a better bid (this [...]

Handball World Championships – Denmark vs Serbia
January 18th, 2009 · 2 Comments · Sports
One of the most amazing handball games I have ever seen, the game between Denmark and Serbia in the World Championships in Croatia. It had everything!
Denmark won 37-36 – I’m very scared what this Serbian team could do against Norway in a couple of days.

New manager for Norway
December 8th, 2008 · No Comments · Sports
It happened, Åge Hareide withdraw from his position as the manager for the Norwegian football team. Not surprisingly, looking at the results the last year.
My idea, get Guus Hiddink, buy out Steinar Nilsen as manager for Brann and get Hareide as the new manager for Brann – that’s the best solution for all parties!
Things happen in Oakland, maybe…

Is really Oakland A’s gonna’ sign Rafael Furcal, well, every sign says so. But $48 millions, hey ya, it’s a lot of money. Anyway, if this really happens, and I would love to – think of the infield combo of Furcal and Mark Ellis! I just don’t want this to happen! Rafael Furcal Error Night

Steinar Nilsen – new manager in Brann
November 21st, 2008 · No Comments · Sports
Steinar Nilsen, the former manager of Tromsø, signed a three-year contract with Brann today, starting January 1st 2009.
Despite having pushed Tromsø to third-place in Tippeligaen 2008, I really don’t know. I’m hoping for the best, but I’m skeptical. Going abroad this time I think would be a good idea, why not trying something new and [...]
Is really Oakland A’s trading for Matt Holiday?
November 10th, 2008 · No Comments · Sports
The A’s are working to complete a trade with the Rockies that would bring Matt Holliday to Oakland. One of the sources said said reliever Huston Street, lefty starter Greg Smith and outfielder Carlos Gonzalez were among the players who had been discussed in recent days.
Why, beats me since it’s only a one year rental, [...]
