- The Stormers suck (yes, tough start to the year, tough break on injuries, but still…)
- The Bulls just quite aren’t that menacing bully team you love to hate (have you seen their flyhalf?)
- The Sharks are South Africa’s best hope (yes… playing that sort of flat passing thing they started in the 90s under Macintosh)
- I cancelled my DSTV account (this feels great whenever your team loses)
- Schalk Burger is a shadow of his former self
- I discovered Coursera
- Still feeling depressed about losing that third test match to Australia (why does Morne Morkel insist on bothering to walk to the pitch to bat?)
- I’m not doing well in my office Superbru pool
- I watched a game at a friend’s house and Hugh Bladen was still commentating
- Those Vodacom ads
- Walking Dead Season 4 (plus I finally got into Mad Men… about time!)
- I have that disturbing feeling that if I go to Newlands I will see those “kiwi” supporters in the railway stand
- My course on postmodernism (see Coursera point) has left me with a vague unsettled feeling that my beliefs don’t really have a firm foundation
- I am getting old, and many of my mates live overseas now. That makes it harder to drink beer in the morning for an Australasian kickoff time.
- Those cheerleaders aren’t really doing it for me.

Yeah… not really feelin’ it.
