Welcome one and all to Sidelined, a collaborative sports commentary blog. As mentioned in the about page:
The Sidelined contributors are all Australian sportslovers from a wide variety of other Aussie blogs who come together here to stop arguing about everything else and only argue about sport.
Yes, we live by Roy and HG’s mantra that too much sport is barely enough.
Sidelined is also looking for contributors especially outside the usual summer/winter sports. If you are interested please email contributor@sidelined.com.au.
Otherwise pull up a chair, crack open a adult beverage of your choice and join in the fun.

Hurrah!
This should be fun. I don’t have much to say at the moment since the Oz RU season’s ended, but I’m sure I’ll find something once the European ski season starts.

European ski season? The things you learn about some folks.
But I do long for a return to the days of the Crazy Canuks, Podborski, Reid, Irwin………..

I just can’t resist the ski competitors’ suits, Phil.

Does this ever happen during the European ski season?:
Ned Flanders: Hi-diddily-ho, schuss-in-boots.
Homer: Flanders? That suit’s a little revealing, isn’t it?
Ned Flanders: Well, it allows for maximum mobility. Feels like I’m wearing nothing at all! (he wiggles his butt at Homer)
Homer: Quit it! Must wash eyes! (he goes down the hill) Uh-oh. (he turns around and begins picking up speed) Okay. Don’t panic. Remember what the instructor said. (he thinks)
Instructor: If you ever get in trouble, all you need to do is—
(it changes to Flanders)
Ned Flanders: (wiggling his butt) Feels like I’m wearing nothing at all! (zooms in) Nothing at all! (zooms in) Nothing at all!
Homer: Oh, stupid sexy Flanders!

Cool site. Added to blogroll. Hope to see much discussion of the sport in which Australia dominates the world. No, not cricket or rugby league. Downhill mountain biking!!
