Nok snakk om fotball, våren og sommeren er her – og “the american pasttime” har begynt – baseball! Jeg håper at mitt lag, Oakland Athletics gjør en like god sesong som de har gjort de to siste årene, og tar sin tredje strake seier i American League West. Derfor må jeg jo ha en kvalifisert […]
Toppidretten i Norge har i mange år vært fullstendig fraværende i grønne/energi og klimaspørsmål. Mitt enkle spørsmål er hvorfor? Et at de siste årenes engasjement er Earth Hour, hovedsaklig utviklet av Trigger Oslo for IKEA (så da teller den vel egentlig ikke??) – særlig når Egil Olsen egentlig ikke fikk lov til å delta fra […]
Etter mye tvil har jeg også har konvertert til iPhone tenkte jeg gjøre en meget uformell spørreundersøkelse, hvilke apps er det folk faktisk bruker. Jeg har pr idag fire sider som jeg bruker, laster opp apps og fjerner, men de to første sidene blir de som jeg bruker særdeles mest. Her er mine to første […]
So, it’s time again – Major League Baseball has started again. So what will happen this year??

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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
The Philadelphia Phillies just won World Series. If that sounds strange, it was strange. Nearly 50 hours after Game 5 started but was stopped by rain, Brad Lidge and the Phillies finished off the Tampa Bay Rays 4-3 in a three-inning sprint Wednesday night and won the series 4-1. Left in limbo by a two-day […]
Norges Bank announced it was cutting another half-point off its key rate. That brings it down to 4.75 percent, and means that rates have dropped by a full point since earlier this month, the snow is falling and I won the bet on which day the first snow will fall, World Series is postponed because […]
The doubts have smothered the Tampa Bay Rays all season. From arduous games to demanding tests, the Rays were expected to fade away. Sooner or later, the inspirational Rays would go home. But the Rays are not going home after all. They are going to the World Series. By advancing to the World Series, the […]
This was some kind of performance, I have been watching baseball for some years, but the unbelivable display that Texas Rangers outfilder John Hamilton did at the Home Run Derby – it’s just wow! Have a look, it’s absolutely amazing! John Hamilton Mashes!
It’s time for football and baseball, and everybody who’s kinda’ into it always guess champions and so forth; so ok, here is my pick for the closest ones: Tippeligaen Norway: Champions 2008: Brann (maybe not a surprise pick for those who knows me, but in this matter, there is no doubt, they have the best […]
