He ido al cine a tirar el dinero como de costumbre, esta vez para ver un largometraje que si no fuera porque pretende ser serio, sería una comedia de las que pasan directamente al cajón de las últimas oportunidades del Carrefour a 4,99 €. El petardo en cuestión se llama “Declaradme Culpable” (Find me Guilty, por una vez una traducción aceptable) dirigida por el mediocre Sidney Lumet y el protagonista no es otro que el pétreo Vin Diesel.
Well, this post can only be in english, after all snooker is so british. Yesterday the 2005/2006 snooker season was over with a surprising new champion, the scotsman Graeme Dott. He is not one of my preferred players, neither is the british semifinalist Peter Ebdon, it was a bit of a surprise to see those two in the final of the World Snooker Championship. I think they play quite flat and with a lot of potting errors, of course Ebdon won the 2002 World Championship, and he sure was a nice player but it’s been a long time since he lost his brilliant game. Even with that kind of players the final was a fine entertainment because they were at the same level, Dott led the way all the time and he was 7 frames away by the 27th frame, then Ebdon woke up from his slumber and won 6 frames in a row and he was only 2 frames behind Dott, but of course it was too late, Dott only needed 2 frames to win and he got them after a 14 hours match. They also got the record of the longest frame in this season with 1 hour and 14 minutes, it really was one of those frames.
