    I'm thinking of grabbing some deckchairs, an esky, a cheese platter and having an informal ceremony at 11am (fight time 100 years ago) on Boxing Day at Rushcutters Bay to commemorate the 100 year anniversary of Jack Johnson v Tommy Burns - the celebrated breaking of the colour line in sport.

    I'm thinking a half hour ceremony with selected readings and some photos. Then all return to domestic bliss.

    Any takers.?

    For those who need a refresher

    That would be sensational. If I were in Sydney, I'd be there for sure...

    If Bush pardons Jack Johnson then in the words of Harry the Great from Dumb and Dumber.
