1) George Green: the new Matty Burrows. And if you've been living under a rock for the last year, here's the old Matty Burrows. Meanwhile, women's football brilliance. Further back in time, this could have been one of the greatest volleys of all time from Trevor Brooking. Instead it turned out to be one of Peter Shilton's greatest ever saves.
2) It's a shame the Bryan brothers had to ruin this through-the-legs lob from Bob against Philipp Petzschner and Jürgen Melzer with a chest bump at the O2 Arena. Anyway Rafael Nadal got there first earlier this year against Novak Djokovic in Madrid.
3) At the grand old age of 81, Tim Gudgin has retired from reading out the football results on Final Score, having been with the BBC since 1965. He probably deserved more than a send-off from 'Chappers'. Here he is in 1998 on the 40th anniversary of Grandstand, doing what he does best. Although he wasn't always at his best – but to be fair to him, that's one messy set of Premier League results, and he did bring more life to the party than Mark E Smith. The BBC should have given Mel Smith a go instead.
4) The Ronnie Rosenthal of the NHL.
5) What people don't realise about this amazing jumping dog is that the man in the clip is actually hiding a trampoline up his shirt.
6) Ah Lego. Whatever football does, rugby league does, if not better then certainly with more hardcore tackles.
