Basking in the defeat of the latest example of crony capitalism (The stadium in Shockoe Bottom) I read this at Deadspin (A great sports place I do not read often enough. I even asked if they were interested in me to write for them. No word; their loss. Mine, too. Deadspin is a good edgy […]

Yes, I know the word is “Batswana” but that might confuse my US readers. But the question is not a silly one: Botswana has one of the highest standards of living in all of Africa. And Africa will be underrepresented in the Winter Olympics. So how does Botswana do it: Have a world -class curling […]

I did not know the men’s 800 could have so much fun! I haven’t had this much fun since I ran 800s and was cheered at an away team match by the home team’s crowd! Led by a girl much much better looking than Paris Hilton! (My nearest competitor was from the third school invited, […]

Looks like Botswana will have a medal in the Olympics for the first time ever! It’s unofficial but Nijel Amos won silver in the men’s 800. Alas, the Americans took fourth and fifth (Symmonds). I was not able to find any Botswana media yet on the win. Give it a day or two. But I […]

I am about ready to pitch the Olympics into the trash can. Botswana could save the day! Tunisia did not win yesterday. But I was so excited about today – surely we’d win a fencing medal today! And then we had TWO US fencers in the semi-finals – surely this had potential – if they […]
