Sports related Facebook apps

A new little Facebook application I've created is a widget that lists current and upcoming events on our sister site Sportomaniac. With the African Nations Cup going on, Six Nations Rugby, SuperBowl and staple of Premiership football, there's loads going on!

Live sports chat

This is a plug for Sportomaniac - a new user-driven live sports chat site. Sports fans can gather while a fixture is going on and voice their views, vent frustrations and even vote on how well the referee is doing! A demo page is available to check out here.

Registration is required to participate in the banter, but that's quick and easy. A page for a particular event can be created by registered users if one hasn't been set up already. You could chat about the huge games for England and Scotland happening tonight that could decide whether they'll qualify for Euro 2008!

Sports Personality of the Year

BBC Sports Personality of the Year - Matthew Pinsent comes close but it's got to be Kelly Holmes surely!

It's BBC Sports Personality of the Year tonight. I wonder, just wonder who's going to win?

Here's my impression of a famous sports personality. Know who it is?

"I been doing something new for this fight.
Been chopping down trees.
Wrestled with an alligator.
That's right. Wrestled an alligator.
Tussled with a whale.
Handcuffed lightning, thrown thunder in jail.
That's right.
Just last week I murdered a rock,
murdered a ROCK!
Injured a stone.
Hospitalised a brick!
I'm so mean I make medicine sick!
Bad, BAD!"

Ooone-undred-and-EIGHTY!!!

Darts is not a sport in my opinion. Players of a sport must be athletes. It's not terribly interesting, but it is strangely watchable. This guy Tony David is a bit of a legend actually, even though he's Australian. (We don't like them because of the Ashes... even though we whipped them in the 5th Test...)
