Hello you. I'm Tommy.

TenDollarBigLove.Com is my interweb supernetway alter super-ego. It's the one that makes me think I'm being productive and not at all like a procrastinator.

TommyNagle.Com is my real life super-ego. It's the one that should be getting a job.

This is the gubbins that I like, the work that I do.
You never know, perhaps you'll like it too. We might become buddies. Want to go for chips and drinks?

It’s long been an ambition of mine to record one of the many football (soccer) matches on BBC Radio 5Live, for reasons that will become apparent.

I love Radio 5Live. I love that there’s (generally) intelligent converstations and reporting, instead of shitty chart music, which I’m fairly sure I could better with an afternoon spent on GarageBand and a 4 litre bottle of Frosty Jacks. (I’m not going to try it though. Mainly for fear of spilling the aforementioned beverage on my computerbox)

I love that 5Live covers virtually everything, from lawn bowling to tramampolining.

I love that it’s not just sport either. It’s news and debate and everything that goes with it.

What I don’t love is Alan Green. Well, that’s harsh. I don’t hate him, but what I can’t stand is that:

a) he pronounces ‘Penalty Area’ as ‘Pneltyair’,

and,

b) he does it approximately 6000* times a match.

I know it’s a small thing, but thank God they rotate the commentary.

*Actual figure tbc.
