AOB:

i) Why was Hunter S. 'Gonzo' Thompson so-nicknamed?

ii) Was anyone just watching MOTD2 and the highlights of the Bolton-Everton match? If so, did you see the intentional blocking of the Everton goalkeeper before a late Bolton free-kick? This in itself wasn't surprising, but the fact that it was a free-kick that was clearly going to be aimed at goal was, as in my experience the goalkeeper is normally left to set the wall/ready himself for a save etc. Is this another, new step towards complete abandonment of any principles of decency in the game of football, or just my misinterpretation of the situation?

Any response gratefully received - especially about this 'Gonzo' business...
