Every country deserves at least one #Colin from Portsmouth.

Found when sorting an old drive. I still, very occasionally, say 'not many badgers in the House of Lords' and this is why:

Visions of Swastikas, Jonny wants a brain And it's true, I've never been to Oxford Town. But bring me the disco king, anyway. #TheYear2025

It's 8-450, but I'm sure they're waiting for 501 #VadersFist #Ashes2025

I've dabbled a little with the #Ashes2025 data Median & std. dev. speed in km/h: MC 139.8 (4.42) SB 134.3 (2.25) I've found evidence for consistently increasing Bowland's bowling speed, which suggests that fatigue hadn't affected his speed in the final overs. 1/ #Cricket

Moin #CDU #CSU, ganz lieb von Euch. Dank Eurer Grenzkontrolle in TGV/ICE aus Straßburg(!!!), aka >>behördliche Maßnahme<<, wird mein Anschluß nicht erreicht. Einen schönen Tag noch!

Interesting way to stop the run and neutralise the numerical (dis)advantage in the box: @wshcommanders.bsky.social Will Harris in the opening play of the #WASvsGB game. The play starts with 2-high safeties and 6 defenders in the box. The @greenbaypackers.bsky.social alligne in 11-personnel 1/ #NFL

#KAJ33 is my all-time favourite basketball player. He's my hero. But the #pricing department at #Adidas might be overly too optimistic charging €400 for a vest and knit shorts. Oh, and there's no chance for a discount. #adidasjabbar #pricingstrategies

A small innovation in offloading has changed how teams attack over the last year, expect to see the 'pop offload' used quite abit during the 2025/26 season. I do enjoy writing these analysis pieces, I hope it makes sense! Any shares appreciated. opensideblog.wordpress.com/2025/09/12/t...

A very nice 1st down blitz by the @patriots.bsky.social, Craig Woodson from the outside, Robert Spillane on a delay. Result: sack by Harold Landry for -5 yds. #LVvsNE #NFL

Another season, another TEX-stunt by the @wshcommanders.bsky.social Result: 3rd and 11. Well done. #NFL #NYGvsWSH

The head coach of Poland U18, Przemysław Pustkowski, has tendered his resignation. After defeating Switzerland and Romania, Poland qualified for the Rugby Europe U18 Championship finals in Prague. The Polish Union has been too busy with the ongoing organisational changes 1/ #rugby

As tough as making predictions (especially about the future) can be... Mik's prediction was right on the money. But there's much more than just algorithms and numbers. Give him a follow if you haben't already @mikadooo.bsky.social

STOP THE TOURNAMENT because this is the most accurate the predictor is ever going to be 😆

And you? Which aide are you on? @greenevillezoo.bsky.social or @redvillezoo.bsky.social #123chimpanzee #coyoteenclosure

Today's episode of my occasional series This Week in #Science >>Time-Series Modelling<< is sponsored by the #Eurostat #datascience #econometrics

I have a Women's Rugby score predictor based on the last eleven years of top-tier international rugby. It's based only on world ranking points, so not very sophisticated, but gives an idea of what typical scorelines might be. So here's the predicted scores for the #RWC pool matches:

Du weisst nicht mehr, wie Blumen duften, kennst nur die Arbeit und das Schuften. So geh’n sie hin die schönsten Jahre, am Ende liegst Du auf der Bahre. Und hinter Dir, da grinst der Tod „Kaputtgeschuftet – Vollidiot!“ Joachim Ringelnatz

#AI is the future. Meanwhile the AI.

I started summarising the kicking stats that I've been collecting. Here's the result, or to be more specific, one of the results: Contestable Kicking Statistics 1361 kicks in the data base already. More to come. public.tableau.com/app/profile/... #Rugby #Tableau

/.../ was how I was taught and I still teach it that way as a #coach Progress, eh? Science, huh? Development, yeah? #coaching

In football 🏈, targeting the ball whilst assist tackling has become a standard procedure. Some DBs even try to strip the ball *before* securing the tackle. The result? Well, usually similar to Point 1 #OvalBallAlliance

Oh, the blind-side rush #NZLvFRA #AllBlacks #Rugby

Say #AI again. Say #MachineLearning. I dare you. I double dare you! #BusinessEnglish

So is it just me or has this place, after a fortnight (or so) of hype and hope, lost the momentum? #rugbybsky #rugby

Banning the caterpillar+1 (with guard) but not penalising SHs for the (head) dummy seems a bit odd. #Rugby #RSAvITA
