2:00 AM ESPN Superbowl XL: Seattle Seahawks vs. Pittsburgh Steelers
7:15 AM Pakistan vs India 1st ODI
Yani I’m bila psyche for superbowl. It just aint the same when NE isn’t playing..:(
Thank you very much for put up job postings regularly. I really appreciate it and i’m sure there are others who do as well.
Aah! Janet Jackson’s glory!
Doubt we will be treated to another “malfuntion” on Sunday.
Can’t wait for the game though.
Where do you guys watch the game in Nairobi?
well the superbowl was a ‘game’, half sustained drives, the commercials were so so, what the hell is mick jagger doing singing(ok atleast live),
Cameroon losing to ivory coast left me bitter.
The toffes are hitting stride, the gd though hideous
Tee J: Too early in the morning to watch here.
Whispering Inn: They should have brough back Janet. Game is shown on ESPN, but was too tired to wake up and watch at 2 A.M – am sure Choices had it.
Msanii_XL: Didn’t watch Super Bowl, But agree that they should have recognized Motown music instead of importing teh rolling stones.
Cameroon vs Ivory Coast was an unforgetable ending. Was neutral, so unaffected by the outcome.
I’m a Gunner, Steeler, Real Madrid, Nigeria & Brazil fun. You blog well on financial matters. Have you considered a political career in future (to give political oversight in this field) in future? Just a thought. Otherwise do keep it up. You make for great reading!
This site is so nice. Really i’ve been checkit for a wile. Here’s some info about the Sony Ericsson tennis tournament history. If you like to visit my page it will be a pleasure. Or if know some one that likes to know about this, givethem this link. Will be nice to had some users like you with sites as good as yours. On August 29, 2006 Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications announced the signing of a four year contract worth $20 million to become the title sponsor of the Sony Ericsson Open. The Sony Ericsson Open is currently the largest tournament in the world with Title Sponsorship. When Butch Buchholz established the event in 1985, it marked the first time in 56 years that a new two-week tournament featuring men and women was launched. Located in Delray Beach (Laver’s International Tennis Center) in 1985 and Boca Raton (Boca West) in 1986, the tournament found a permanent home in 1987 on Miami’s Key Biscayne. In 1994, Miami-Dade County christened the Tennis Center at Crandon Park, a 30-acre expanse that is transformed each year from a public tennis facility into a full-fledged festival for the Sony Ericsson Open. The Sony Ericsson Open was awarded “Tournament of the Year” by the ATP for five consecutive years and seven of the last eight years and in 2004 by the Sony Ericsson WTA Tour and is considered one of the most prestigious titles in professional tennis. In 1999, the tournament was purchased by IMG.
The only combined 12-day Tennis Masters Series event on the ATP and Sony Ericsson WTA Tour calendar, the Sony Ericsson Open features the world’s top-ranked pros – 96 men and 96 women in singles competition, and 32 men’s teams and 32 women’s teams in doubles action. The men’s final is a best 3-out-of-5 sets with every other match in both men’s and women’s singles and doubles a best 2-out-of-3.We specialize in hard to find or sold-out sports tickets, concert tickets and theatertickets for sporting and entertainment events worldwide.
