well Standard just refused a 15mil euro offer on defour (which by todays exchange rate would equal 15mil £ i guess) from a moscow club.

russians set to increase offer to over 20mil euro.

wonder if he'd want to go there tho .. sure he'll make more money in five years than he would ever make in EPL or another top european league, but there's always the emirates for when he's 35 and feels like he needs more money.

but i guess this does mean he's a bit out of everton's reach (money wise).

bleh .. the guy who won the green jersey (best sprinter) last year was banned this year from the tour the france because he was caught partying on cocaine (a drug that actually has a negative effect on your cycling qualities but the frenchies still wouldn't allow him in the race) ... it'll be more interesting to see what happens to cavendish against better competition in the next tour de france.

also hope he's gonna focus some more on one day races .. think he's got a very good shot at winning milan-san remo some day.

certainly pays better to be a baseball player in america than to play for everton ...

NY Yankees just committed 110mil£ for 7 years to one player (cc sabathia) .. that's 300.000£ per week for seven years

on the other hand 110mil buys you only 7 fellaini's

cricket

ice hockey

long distance running

btw Jesse11, you're right to say Australian Football is awesome .. i don't know the rules, i can't even deduct a single rule from watching what's going on, but everytime i'm flipping through the channels and Australian Football is on, i can't not watch it.. (if only for those ridiculous handmovements the referees make when a player kicks a ball through the uprights)... Australian Football ftw!
