SF Game 2 Hawks V Wildcats
Uh, we're talking about an extra two days, not a week, you know?



Oh the joy's of starting work at 6am on a sunday -.-


The Last Act of Defiance
The Hawks put a shot across the bow of SS Wildcats in game 1 and I am sure Trevor G followed my advice and went the brown jocks. He'll need them again today.
Hawks on the home court should serve up a spicy dish to the Cats, who hopefully are on time as I hear they are such nice guys they get distracted helping little old ladies across the road and getting their cats down from trees.
Hawks need to improve on the boards in game 1 the OR count was 15:4 and that was about the only difference. With a fanatical home crowd behind them, Hawks will be putting on the Rambo wig and have nothing to lose. When the Hawks go nuts, they hang on like a orca on his trainer at sea world. The Cats players better be wearing the brown jocks as well.
I think the Hawks can push this to a third game.

Could be hope for the NBL and NBA on free to air:
A 24-hour sports channel to be launched next year on free-to-air television will revolutionise the Australian broadcasting landscape.
Not only has Ten just outbid Nine to win the television rights to Australian swimming, but among the network's new trump cards are the US NBA basketball, the US Major League baseball. Ten also holds the rights to the US Open golf and tennis championships and the US Masters golf.
Ten also recently spent a reported $10-15 million buying the rights to India's IPL Twenty20 cricket for five years.
The 2009 AFL grand final will also be simulcast on Ten's HD channel, and Ten will extend its AFL coverage to include a Monday night review program to be hosted by Stephen Quartermain.
The network has also bought the rights to the Trans-Tasman Netball League, with former AFL star Luke Darcy to host its netball coverage.
Ten also owns the rights to Formula One Grand Prix events, the Nascar series including the Daytona 500, and has been televising the World Golf Championship events.Full article at The Age: Ten's tilt at 24-hour sports channel
Good to see one of the networks trying something bold.
