Another pretty big sheep here, so is it this?

And with that Trigger's earlier prophesy comes true and we have new joint leaders. At the bottom the purple tin seems to be doing all they can to make the wooden spoon all their own.

It's good to find out who's a pitcher and who's a catcher in FG :pac:

Bills lost four in a row, probably the most famous runners up streak in history!

Cleveland Browns have been a feature of pop culture. Cleveland Brown even had his own Family Guy spin-off. The sex position Cleveland Steamer was named after them, but I shouldn't expect virgins to know that.

8 Name an Irish cycling Grand Tour (Tour de France, Giro d'Italia or Vuelta a Espana) stage winner

Choice of a few legends here, including two from Carrick-on-Suir, the old master Sean Kelly



Or the new(ish) kid on the block, Sam Bennett

I missed this key sentence.

My own fault.

I apologise for everything that has gone before.

Usually SHEEP is the great equalizer.

7 Name a netball position

For reasons best known to themselves, out of the seven positions in netball, only two are allowed score, but are either our sheep?

6 Name a sport that Ireland has won a Summer Olympics medal in (e.g. cycling, rather than specific event such as men's road race)

You try to help out by explaining the question as clearly as you can, and still somebody lets you down. I won’t name any names, but you know who you are, don’t you Spook?

So were you a fan of these two lovable dopes?



Or how about this not quite as lovable dope(r)? *
