Cricket is THE worst "sport" on the planet. 22 blokes arse around in a big field scratching themselvs, one bloke runs up with a ball and chucks it at some other bloke with a big plank of wood (Come on folks, most other sports are on Graphite/Titanium at least) who knocks it tamely to another bloke who chucks it back to the bowler. Repeat ad nauseum for 5 days. I'd rather watch fucking Tiddlywinks.

 

[mank!]

at least gaffer worked out that not all 22 players are on the field at the same time

i wouldn't really call bowling at speeds of upto 90mph chucking either, unless you're muralitharan.

90 mph? That's not even up to winging speeds.

Baseball, and Hockey both use wooden implements, so do snooker players!

Your not helping our cause, all of those are extremely dull sports.

I would much rather watch cricket than football or *any* American sport except basketball. Only better major televised sport is rugby in my opinion.

Hockey is a great game, used to love it at school.

 

[leggy]

I thought hockey was reserved for girls with 32" diameter thighs.

 

[Trem]

Hockey is a tough game.

My thighs are bigger than that as well big boy.

Mwuhahaahahahahaha.

Beach Volleyball? Ice hockey? Both clearleh superior to cricket, and rugby is such a gay sport. Think about that.

Hockey's a great game to play, can't say I've ever watched it much apart from Ice Hockey, which is fantastic to watch. Baseball has one big advantage over cricket; it doesn't last FIVE FUCKING DAYS! (And don't talk to me about one day or 20-20, it just shows that everyone knows normal cricket is too dull for words). Snooker isn't a sport. Great game to play, but no way is it a sport.

 

[mank!]

test cricket is where it's at, one dayers are just for those with short attention spans.

 

[dysfunction]

Heh a Titanium or graphite cricket bat...I wonder if that would work....

Not sure you would get the same smooth feel when striking the ball and probably not the same distance either.

Would be interesting to find out though

I agree golf is THE dullest sport ever...

 

[mank!]

should have been in the squad for the first test, fact!

i love monty.
