...because it's time for 'Caption of the Week'. Before we get to this week's photograph, though, I have the pleasure of announcing the winners from last time. We got quite a few entries - but when I pulled out all the ones referring to sex toys... Read more...

De Villiers disservice to proud 'Bok history

Mon, June 29, 2009, 10:11 am EST

Caption of the Week

Mon, May 11, 2009, 12:12 pm EST

It's a dream sporting weekend. . .

Fri, May 8, 2009, 7:14 am EST

I can't wait. The two best teams set to slug it out to see who's number one. The pride and the passion, a sell-out crowd baying for blood and undoubtedly the biggest game of the year so far in the sport. Yep, the Super 14 is hitting its straps and... Read more...
