Victorian Harness Racing’s Summer of Glory carnival has grown exponentially across the past few years to the point where we have added another Group 1 race to the agenda. Ballarat Pacing Cup was the unofficial beginning to the SOG, now it’s the official beginning and the carnival climaxes with a monstrous double-header next weekend with … More SOG – Classic Night
I’m unsure what triggered this fascination but I am all of a sudden invested (financially and emotionally) in the MVP race for the current NBA season. I’ve always stuck up for LeBron James and am a firm believer he should have at least 2-3 more MVP gongs but the narrative of the award seems to … More NBA MVP Fascination
Strange heading ? Well, writing ‘What Did We Learn & Where Do We Go Now?’ in the headline would’ve looked even stranger so, hey, let’s see whether anyone actually cares. What really matters is what happened on the gridiron today – or whenever you’re reading this. 43-year-old Tom Brady led his brand new team into … More WDWL&WDWGN
PACKERS 27, BUCCANEERS 21Rodgers has been incredible this season and he gets Lambeau Field, snow and an opponent from a warm climate. I really like this evolving three-headed monster at RB for the Pack. Brady and the Buccaneers have had an awesome season. Brady himself has been superb and the squad has continued to gel … More Conference Championship
Well, in the end, everything went according to plan – kinda.

A question was posed on Victorian radio last week as to whether the upcoming New Year’s Eve VicBred Super Series is the only card in world racing – of any code – with 12 Group 1 races in the line-up. An answer was not positively attained but it’s hard to imagine a race day anywhere … More VicBred Super Series Finals – NYE

NINERS 23, COWBOYS 22Dalton has proven capable as Dak’s replacement but Kyle Shanahan will create enough offence to usurp the injuries his team has copped.
