I actually thought he was so consumed with the IRB's new "punish players for falling over" edict at the breakdown that he failed to spot a fell of a lot of offsides in the tackle.
He was bit. And I was particularly vocal when the Scotsman came through illegally and pushed Ellis back off the ball at the ruck while looking at Barnes who was telling him to get out of the way.
Barnes is particularly precise though in knock-ons and (ironically now) forward passes. Perhaps he trained up after World Cup.
I did love how he kept directing the players. Like when he told the Scots to be quiet so the All Blacks could get their line-out call.

Ten, unless adidas have stopped putting logo's on their boots.
Good point i forgot to mention this. While the New Zealanders all have Adidas boots the Scots were wearing Reebok and Adidas (and possibly Mizuno?). It was most notable during scrum time.
I also think I may have miscounted Scotland's logos, the one on the back was a Scottish Rugby Union logo.

30 minutes into their delayed coverage of the All Blacks/Scotland match yesterday, ad break, they promote their 5.30 news and say "All Blacks beat Scotland". Duh. Having avoided radio and internet news all day, the channel showing the game gives away the result. Thanks.
Which is why when I heard the announcer say "and in sports the All Blacks..." I just started yelling loudly and blindly scrambling for the remote.

Scotland NOT shouting and whistling and booing when the kick takes place - TOP WORK SCOTLAND
But I'm old skool when the game was above ONLY about winning. If it's ONLY about winning then why not allow handguns?
As a fan of the home team I am there to support my boys and hope that the competition will be fair and that, in the end, my team shall prevail.
If I can do something to prevent the opposition from scoring points (and as long as it is not a projectile onto the field or some awful taunting) then I'm totally going to do that.
I will always applaud any points scored by the opposition, but only after I groan. I will never boo an opponent (unless they have done something unsportsmanlike, in which case I shall chant "off")
The best ways to put off a kicker would be orchestrated random movements or sounds, but I think that's probably going to far.

And Charlotte Investigates on the small screen? Asking politicians if they were a piece of stationery what would they be?
That was Winston's shining moment of this election though, he answered (though I may have remembered the exact words incorrectly): I don't have time to answer stupid questions

Outsports would probably be the best place to start for lists of gay sportsfolk (and lists of the hottest guys in sport).
It's possibly a little too beefcake to call it SFW however (Hadyn suddenly discovers).

Y'all did click on my YouTube embed, right? I want the whole country up and boogying, now.
I'm at work so I bypassed it. I don't know how I missed this though:
How’d ya know I needed you so badly/ How’d ya know I’d give my heart so gladly?

I would say that football is the worst sport in the states for any kind of -ism. Case in point: Buck Burnette from the University of Texas Longhorns. After the election, he updated his Facebook status to: all the hunters gather up, we have a #$%&er in the whitehouse.
Thankfully he was kicked off the team.

I want a cup cake.
I'm hoping that when I vote that someone will have cupcakes waiting for me. But for some reason I just don't think they will (sigh)
By the way, am I the only person who, after reading the title of the post, is singing "You Sexy Thing?"

By the way I realised at lunch that the title of this post is incorrect.
While there have been 43 white presidents and 1 black one. Technically black candidates are 1-0 in US presidential elections.
