So last Friday Sarah Emma and I loaded up our bags and caught the InterCity bus to Dunedin. We stopped at Timaru and Oamaru along the way. Was pretty cute little trek I thought some of the towns we passed through had less than a handful of actual traffic lights. Got to see a lot of the countryside a lot of sheep and cows. At one point we actually passed a field of grazing deer which I found t

The opening round of matches in this season's women's NPC in New Zealand brought wins for Otago, Canterbury and Auckland last weekend. Three tries from Black Fern Carla Hohepa helped secure a 38-24 victory for the Otago Spirit against Wellington Pride in Dunedin. Otago led 26-0 at half time after outplaying Wellington in all facets in the first half. A storming second half wasn’t quite enough for the...

Syracuse kept its slim hopes alive of staying over .500, Auburn snapped a nine game losing skid to get back to .500 and New Hampshire will remain well below .500 but at least they got a walk-off win to lessen the pain. Dunedin and Lansing don't have much to play for these days as they get ready for the post-season and the GCL Jays got their breakfast, lunch and dinner handed to them in a .500 night...

The last laugh is on all the people who will spend their Labour Day weekend up at some cottage. Unless they've got a satellite dish, they're all going to miss seeing Travis Snider make his major-league debut this weekend, at Yankee Stadium no less. Enjoy your idyllic pleasures and time away from the hustle and bustle, jerks. It's kind of appropriate that Snider's callup came on the very night
