Blogs on and off line The Tony Seed (Editor of Shunpiking) Blog (El Politico) I am no blogger, and throughout my life have always written as part of joining collective work to solve definite problems facing people. The response and need has been such that, in the absence of any similar space in our region, I decided to forge ahead and build on what had been achieved with what I described as "a work in progress". The Tony Seed (Editor of Shunpiking) Blog (The Sportsman) Friendship First, Competition Second Sport mutates and the masses are reduced to spectators of gladiators in the arena when profit, commercialism and international domination is the goal. In our view, the defence of amateur sport necessitates combating the narcosis and disinformation of sport as "entertainment" - an instrument of annexation by the United States, and the neo-liberal, anti-social offensive of the powerful monopolies and corporate sports media of the rich.  The views expressed herein are the writers' own and do not necessarily reflect those of shunpiking magazine or New Media Publications.
