The Goat's Daily Dose of Weird: July 09- Blame It On Jagger?

Today's Daily Dose of Weird is absurd, but Mick Jagger does have a horrible track record with supporting losing teams at the FIFA World Cup and other football (soccer) matches. People are blaming him for Brazil's crushing defeat yesterday because he was at the match cheering on host team Brazil. Click here for the full read about why Mick should not be betting on football outcomes.

Also, I doubt he will be cheering for Germany on Sunday so that is a plus. Go Germany!

The Goat's Daily Dose of Weird: June 20, 2014- Sex At The World Cup

It has been a while since I shared a “Daily Dose of Weird” radio break. With all the changes things have been really busy! Today’s topic is red hot, the FIFA World Cup in Brazil. By all accounts the 2014 World Cup is the sexiest tournament ever (not really sure why that matters but it has been constantly brought up). Yesterday I discussed the HUGE demand for the unofficial World Cup condom on sale exclusively in Brazil, today the topic was about the sexual activity the players are allowed (or not allowed) to partake in.

For the full read about the Brazilian unofficial/official World Cup condoms from makers (ironically named) Prudence click here.

Like I say in my radio break I think it is way more ridiculous to have a grey area in your team’s sexual policy for World Cup. Yes or no, one or the other; I think the grey area will just get people in trouble and it is confusing. Also, Brazil we get it you are not normally vanilla in-bed but to have to say no acrobatic sex, is that necessary?  What does that even mean? Also, who is enforcing these “rules” and who would be a big enough jerk to taddle? For Time’s look at what teams can take part in bedroom behavior and to what extent click here.

Xbox One Release Info

Coming up on November 22, 2013 Microsoft will celebrate the 8th birthday of the Xbox 360 with the release of the next generation of gaming console, the Xbox One.


Christmas 2008 I was gifted a very nice Xbox 360 from my loving parents. They had finally been worn down by familial fighting over how much time my sister and I could spend playing Rockband on my brother’s Xbox 360. Clearly, he had other games he wanted to be playing. Virtual zombies gotsa get killed and newbes can’t pwn themselves.

In all seriousness, my Xbox 360 was one of my key possessions in university. From hosting Rockband parties in my dorm room to movie nights with the girls... I passed my Xbox down to my younger cousins this spring because I really didn't think I needed to bring it on my move to Calgary (and on to the Kootenays) considering my boyfriend also has one.

On that note, Xbox was a great tool while we were doing the whole long-distance relationship thing in College. He could kick my butt at NHL and I could destroy him at Madden, without having to worry about distance.

One thing I absolutely love (and am not embarrassed about in the slightest) is the Xbox Kinect Disneyland Adventures game. I am obsessed with Disneyland and every time we boot the game up it is like a trip back to one of my favorite places on Earth. Seriously, I know a lot of people rip on the game but I absolutely love it, it is foolish and fun for the whole family!

I am super excited for the latest release, the Xbox One. I will be investing in one for our home for sure! November 22nd the Xbox One will be available in the following countries: Australia, Austria, Brazil, Canada, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Mexico, Spain, the United Kingdom, the U.S., and New Zealand. Releases in other countries will take place in 2014. The console with one controller, updated Kinect hardware,


I won’t be waiting in line to get my Xbox One on release day, but I will be asking for one for Christmas. Many retailers that have been selling pre-orders for the Xbox One have already run out, so get your pre-order in while you still can!
