PETANQUE – WITH LOUIS VUITTON
09 Sep 2009 by Seth Rotherham / 3 Comments
It’s no secret that I am a petanque (or “boules”) champion in the Provencial town of Menerbes – extending perhaps as far as Lacoste and, dare I say, Avignon. It is rumoured that Pierre Cardin wants to challenge me for the title, but that remains to be seen. Imagine my excitement when I clapped eyes […]

MY “YOU MAGAZINE” ISSUE IS CAUSING A BIT OF A STINK OVERSEAS
08 Sep 2009 by Seth Rotherham / 15 Comments
It goes without saying that the 10 September YOU Magazine issue which featured yours truly (on page 130) is causing absolute mayhem overseas. No, no, not because of me, but rather the fact that it features Caster Semenya. YOU Magazine decided to gave her a make-over, after the controversy surrounding her gender. This, from the […]

Sports Wrap # 4 and TV Times with Blades
03 Sep 2009 by Jasmine Stone / 5 Comments
South Africa is a complicated place. The mind boggles at some of the stuff that goes down here- strikes, senseless killings, corruption and divided politics are things that we, as South Africans, deal with on a daily basis. It has apparently gotten so bad, that certain individuals qualify for refugee status abroad. But watching the […]

PERFORMANCE IS THE NAME OF THE GAME
21 Aug 2009 by Seth Rotherham / 1 Comment
I didn’t give this much of a chance when it was sent in to me. But then I did, and I was pleased. 2oceansvibe’s relationship with non-A-to-B-transportation related cycling and cyclists is a torrid and well-documented vibe, a lot of which can be seen in graphic detail in our much celebrated and aptly named “CYCLING” […]

LIGHTNING BOLT STRIKES TWICE – NEW 200M WORLD RECORD
21 Aug 2009 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
Less than a week ago we featured a report about Usian Bolt breaking his own 100m record (here). Well, would you believe it, he’s gone and done it again!

Sports Roundup + TV Times # 2 with Blades
20 Aug 2009 by Jasmine Stone / 4 Comments
How anyone can watch soap operas is beyond me. They’re unrealistic and they drag on forever. Marlena on Days of our Lives, for example, spent her life dead, in a coma, kidnapped or possessed by the devil. That’s no way to live! And besides, who needs a soap opera when you have real-life, exciting drama […]

HEIDELBERG RUGBY CLUB BANNED FOR 15 YEARS

One thing Mossel Bay should never have done, is beat Heidelberg – especially when the fans were armed with knives, broken bottles, chairs and pipes. If you think the start of the video is hectique, just wait for the 2min55sec mark which brings us a scene not too disimmilar to a pack of hyenas hunting […]

Sports Roundup #1 with “Blades”
13 Aug 2009 by Jasmine Stone / 6 Comments
Victory, we all know, is sweet at the best of times. Victory against the Wallabies, on the other hand, is similar to three courses of dessert followed by…you guessed it, dessert. Perhaps the only thing better than beating the Aussies at rugby is beating them at cricket, and after two wins against the All Blacks, […]

DISKI WORLD CUP DANCE LOOKS PRETTY COOL
13 Aug 2009 by Seth Rotherham / 2 Comments
At first I thought it was an ad for Kika-Sack balls, but then realised that they have created some kind of world cup dance. Like the Macarena, except impossible for anyone over 50 to join in. Pretty rad. I might need to practice those moves. Who knows – maybe there will be another […]

I’ve received quite a few emails and sms’s and calls about this ESPY Awards vibe that was on TV a couple weeks back.

If you haven’t seen it, then you need to. Quite urgently, I might add. Well done to those of you that have seen it. We applaud you. And if you start watching and stop before the end when the babies go through the cones, then you’re also doing yourself a gross injustice. Check […]
