the best damn sports day period There was just way too much good sports on tv yesterday for me to get myself over to the computer and blog! First, I watched Wimbledon (we know I love watching Wimbledon). I tried explaining the game to the boys and to their credit they really watched and cheered with me for about an hour. ("Go Fed!") Then they went off to practice their penalty kicks in preparation for yesterday's World Cup final.
Knitting group rescued me from seeing the bitter end of that game. And the baby geek sweater kept me from even getting involved in that interminable Red Sox game.
Phew, what a day! posted by alison at 8:53 am | in

Oh my goodness! Part of the reason I didn't make it to Knitsmiths (for the first time) was that I was pretty wrapped up in watching Federer-Nadal, Italy-France and that 19 inning marathon! I guess 2 out of 3 positive outcomes are not bad. ;-) Posted by: Joanne at July 10, 2006 9:16 AMThat was an ugly end to the game, wasn't it? I was so mad -- I really wanted to like that Zidane guy, and then he had to go and do *that*. Can't wait to see how Baby Geek turns out... Posted by: shannon at July 10, 2006 9:48 AMWay too much sports. I didn't go out much, either. So happy that Federer won! The Red Sox game was interminable -- you know it's bad when you're relieved that someone, even the opposing team, gets a run so the game will end! Posted by: Kathode Ray Tube at July 10, 2006 10:35 AMFootball BABY, I can hardly wait. I Love that blue! Posted by: Lynette at July 10, 2006 11:05 AMAdd in some Tour de France coverage, as insisted on by my BIL, and that was my day too! All sports all the time. I love it! Posted by: Ashley at July 10, 2006 11:34 AMIt was so sad, and i felt so sorry for Zidane. I'm french, and all i can say is that he seems to be a good guy - i'm not a fan of football, but he's always very nice when seen on interviews, and involved in charities and always behaving well, but yesterday from the beginning, they were harassing him. The italian player must have insulted him with some sort of racist names for him to come out of bounds. I was sad for him, but didn't regret France did not win, at least they didn't use such dirty tricks... Posted by: Stephanie at July 10, 2006 2:59 PM*sniffle* Is there going to be another Sockapalooza soon?? I just learned to knit socks (just so I could participate in Sockapalooza!!). Any idea when the next one will be?? :( Posted by: Yvonne at July 10, 2006 6:46 PMWow did those people ever get their money's worth at that baseball game! Pretty nasty soccer game it turned out to be hey? Can't wait to see the Baby Geek sweater when it is done. Posted by: Miss Scarlett at July 11, 2006 2:45 AMWhere did you get the pattern for that blue baby sweater? I'd love to know - thanks! Posted by: Barbara at July 17, 2006 9:33 AMVery good reading. Peace until next time. |
