I don't think you really need to watch the cricket to know what is happening.

I get a lot of delight out of not caring about cricket. But I must say, some of the people in this country really need to chill out on the whole deal. Like all old men, I listen to ABC regional talkback radio - at all times - and I find the amount of other old people ringing in and demanding heads to roll over this recent tournament performance is quite disturbing. When did we become Pakistan? So we came second for once. I don't think we have to sack everyone and throw rotten bananas at their grandparents.

I agree on that.

The media and majority of the population absolutely HATE the team when we lose something for once.

and that one test that we did win, they were straight back to the front page and were like kings again.

Correction. The media couldn't really care less either way. I think more people hang on to bad defeats for longer, and not many people in Australia write letters to the paper, or call the radio stations about what they think Australia should have done during the victory. More people want to know WHY we sucked so hard. I have all the answers, we didn't win because England got more points than us, that happened because they played better than us.

Cricket commentators in particular LOVE the Australians to lose, because, as we know all the ex players that are now commentators NEVER LOST A MATCH IN THEIR ENTIRE LIVES - that they'll talk about anyway. So they love to sit there and pick apart what they would have done differently, and talk about 12 year olds in far north Queensland that are showing promise in the u/13 boys A grade competition.

LOL! As I have said - I think Cricket is the most boring game in existance bar nothing - I don't even really like the game. Only reason I have it on is to watch the defeat.

ahhhhhhh fuck. Hometime yet?

Nik, I think he is copying you with the whole:

thing after every post.



But enjoy that beer! I need one too.
