Must watch: Harry Redknapp takes offence at ‘wheeler dealer’ tag
It would seem that Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp, who is on the verge of signing Rafael Van der Vaart for £8m when Bayern Munich were willing to pay £18m, is not fond of his ‘wheeler dealer’ tag. This expletive ridden video comes with an offensive language warning.

We’re all on a journey
Well, you can read it for yourself – it is particularly good value as an e-book from Amazon for £6.99 – but so far the wall of hate has been pretty much as expected here and in my article for The Independent this morning (I should never read the comments).
The main interest at first glance [...]

James Cameron is ‘ridiculous and self-serving,’ says ridiculous, self-serving rival
For all the bitching that goes on in Hollywood, precious few disputes actually happen face to face. So thank goodness for James Cameron and Mark Canton, producer of the recent schlock-fest Piranha 3D, for deciding to air their dirty laundry in the most public manner possible.

Must watch: Federer’s incredible trick shot
Doing a suspiciously perfect trick shot on an ad shoot is one thing, but pulling an inch-perfect through-the-legs shot in the middle of a match is quite another. Roger Federer reminded everyone why he’s still a force to be reckoned with last night (see the video below), but spare a thought for his opponent, poor [...]

Must watch: Po Po’s ‘SikSikSik’
I was never hugely into video games as a kid so, in turn, I’m not now massively nostalgic for the rudimentary graphics from back in the day; however the recent micro-trend for lo-fi retro gaming is put to good use in this video for Mad Decent signings Po Po.
The video for “SikSikSik” made by David [...]

Time for Capello to take responsibility

Early impressions on the Premier League
Chelsea v Manchester United… again
Champions Chelsea look unstoppable. Played three Premier League matches, won all three, 14 goals scored and none conceeded. Wow is that impressive or what? Manchester United also have a top squad and Dimitar Berbatov is starting to look the part. They, like Arsenal, are two points behind, [...]

Cricket corruption? Oh, believe me, you don’t want to hear what I think . . .
Strange question, this, sort of, but how long do you need to have been following a sport, or a particular team, before you’re allowed an opinion on it?
A week? A month? A season? A lifetime?
Get it wrong, butt in before your views are considered valid, before you’ve paid your dues or clocked up an acceptable [...]
Before the First Man …
Running out of time before the “biggest publishing event since Gutenberg” hits the wall of Blair hate tomorrow. And I still haven’t reviewed Peter Mandelson’s The Third Man.
It is an unexpected delight to read – unexpected because Mandelson, a brilliant talker with a subtle political mind, has never been much of a stylist of the [...]
