I would really love it if the Kiwis win the cup, but even if they don't, I'll still be cheering because they came so close;   8 - 8 today is brilliant...

I was watching reviews of the 30 year americas cup celebrations, hawkie said: we out techoed the b....., lol,what a classic

Well well....look who won, lol.

I liked the interview with the team skipper Jimmy Spithill on The Stephen Colbert show.

Turns out the skipper is Australian.

“It was a fantastic race. We wouldn’t have it any other way,” said Spithill, the two-time Cup winner. “We came from behind, the guys showed so much heart. On your own you’re nothing, but a team like this can make you look great…

   We were facing the barrel of a gun at 8-1 and the guys didn’t even flinch.

lol!
