My friend @pete has another great contest for us all to enter. You can find all the details and rules for entry here https://scorum.com/en-us/other/@pete/the-freaky-friday-contest and @pete in typical pete style has put up a great prize of 67SCR for the lucky winner. This was subsidised by another great guy here on Scorum by the name @kryptokeeper. I'd encourage you to check out their pages.
The contest
This is the first week of Freaky Friday, and this week we have to put ourselves in the shoes of someone in the video below or in the shoes of someone who was a spectator or commentator.
I have opted for the six-pack sporting legend that is Mr Winston Mulrooney, an absolute legend in the world of Roley-Poley-Ringy-Boardy-Doorsy, thought to be the first ever sport to appear on Earth. There is indeed evidence that cavemen were huge fans of the game and were often seen playing in the summertime when they weren't been chased by bears.
An interview with Mr Mulrooney after the match with renowned Roley-Poley-Ringy-Boardy-Doorsy legend Wilfred Chapman
Interviewer: Well well Winston old buddy, old chap. What a performance that was, spiffing I tell you, absolutely spiffing.
Mulrooney: Oh poppy-cock, all in a days work Mr Chapman, all in a days work.
Interviewer: Oh, I say, jolly funny, jolly funny. But in all seriousness I played Roley-Poley-Ringy-Boardy-Doorsy at the highest level for 25 years and I have never seen such a display by a 3 person team. It was quite remarkable.
Mulrooney: Oh Wilfred, you're making me blush, but you are right of course, we were pretty damn good out there if I may say so myself.
Interviewer: You may.
Mulrooney: Ok. We were pretty damn good out there Wilfred.
Interviewer: You got off to a blinding start after the rain delay. Could you talk us through that opening. We thought it was a little wide at first, but it set you up perfectly on the board.
Mulrooney: It is all about focus. You have to time the run to perfection. Me and the boys have been training hard all winter. Their clap was so perfectly timed, there's not a clapper in the country as good as those two guys right now. We gave it everything then to make it to the Ringy-Floppy-Downy zone on time and in sync and it just happened for us I guess.
Interviewer: You mentioned training Winston, clearly you are in the shape of your life. I can't think of an athlete in any sport in the world right now, who is in better physical shape than you. How do you maintain it?
Mulrooney: Great question Wilfred. It is down to hard work, dedication and commitment, but to be honest my strict diet is at the heart of it. I eat 2 rashers, 4 sausages, black and white pudding, fried eggs, toast and 3 croissants for breakfast every morning. I then go back to bed for about an hour to rebuild my muscle tone after eating. When I get up I have a small snack of Deep fried chicken with a full loaf of bread, which I butter on both sides. That brings me up to about 11:30am. I get a rub down from my physio at this point, while I smoke my pipe and drink some afternoon tea. I usually go down to the pub then for a few quite pints and some peanuts.
Interviewer: Incredible. How do you remain so disciplined.
Mulrooney: The way I see it, my body is a temple, so I really look after myself.
Interviewer: You are a beacon of hope for young sportmen the world over. Let's get back to todays game now. What about that jump just after the first quarter? He must have lept at least 1.5 foot of the ground to get over you, what a feat.
Mulrooney: Ah yes, I never doubted him, the leap, the landing, the slide, and I just made it to the board in time to get the points.
Interviewer: And a 6 pointer at that!
Mulrooney: Ah yes, I just got there on time. Again, the training comes into play. We did a 2 week training camp this Winter and another one in Spring to get us right for today.
Interviewer: And where were these training camps if I may ask?
Mulrooney: You may
Interviewer: Thank you Mulrooney. Where were these training camps?
Mulrooney: Benidorm and Blackpool Wilfred. You know we trained very hard, but we had a jolly good time too, jolly good, I say.
Interviewer: My word, truly incredible. And finally, I read recently that Cristiano Ronaldo comes to you for training tips and style tips. Is there any truth to these reports?
Mulrooney: Guilty as charged. He even wanted to grow my signature mustache, but I wouldn't allow it. That is actually why they call him Ronnie, which is slang for Mustache or lack there of in Ronnie's case.
Interviewer: There you have it folks. Another exclusive with our very own Winston Mulrooney. All the best old chap.
Mulrooney: Toodles
