  1. I thought we were friends, but clearly not. ^_~
  2. This will make a whole lot more sense in a few weeks when Italy beat Wales.
  3. This is what you would have got for judging a five (well, four) day game after the first. In other cricket news, Shamar Joseph could retire tomorrow and still be one of the true legends of West Indian cricket after only two tests.
  4. If I were a Cricket administrator, I might try and do something to stop players leaving franchise leagues just before the play-offs begin. Were I an actual fan of the Brisbane Heat, I might be somewhat chapped that they lose their two top run scorers and then find it difficult to score more than 120 runs in a finals match.
  5. Although the belt was not on the line this week, Tottenham Hotspur became the True and Accurate Champions of English Football for the 19th time on New Year's Eve with their win over Bournemouth. Only four teams have held the belt more times than Spurs, and those same four teams have held the belt for more matches. (Newcastle are tied for total reigns but are four title matches behind Spurs.) At six successful defences, Bournemouth's reign narrowly missed out on the Top 10% of title reigns in the Premiership Era.
  6. I can't wait to bust out the old John Kear quote for the Pats this week, having missed my chance last week.
  7. TNS, the then Welsh Champions had to play a European game at the Racecourse a few years back against Legia Warsaw and the few visiting fans who did show up were mental, especially as they occupied one corner of the ground and spent their time singing and setting off flares. Anyone coming to Wrexham for a Thursday night piss-up must be cracked.
  8. I have not been watching much from this Basho except I just saw Abi win this tournament's Ura Memorial Award for Stupidest Fall in a match against Ura himself.
  9. Belated Congratulations to AFC Bournemouth becoming the 356th True and Accurate Champions of English Football, holding the belt for third time. They have only once defended the belt in the past.
  10. Also, South Africa were taken to the Jadeja Zone and made to look like they were England, trying to chase. It turns out that India have other, non-Kohli players; it's just the Indian public don't seem to care unless they have a bat.
  11. Sri Lanka, who are at least above England as this stand because they've actually won two games.
  12. The last few games, they look completely flummoxed by the idea of having to hit the ball with their bats, so that they can score points - known as 'runs' - without getting 'out' Stop me if I'm getting too technical please, Jos.
  13. I was listening to the India innings this morning, thinking that England had done pretty good to keep India below 250. Who was the fool? (Actually, it was England who are the fools.)
  14. It's a penalty shootout from the 22 until Martyn Williams slices his shot sending Cardiff out of the Heineken Cup.
  15. It's not a title defence as "defence" doesn't fit England's mentality.
  16. Sri Lanka chased down the 157 they needed inside 26 overs. EngLOLand.
  17. They chased down 283 at a jog; Pakistan just couldn't get the wickets and couldn't stop them pinching runs. The result leaves England on the bottom, looking at a Wooden Sppon decider against Sri Lanka on Thursday.
  18. Do those Texas Jabs hurt so much when you don't have bones?
  19. Baz only Balls for 5 days at a time, this is all ButtBall. That is to say: Jos Buttler was the Brain Genius who decided to take the field in 35°C temperatures while his best spin bowler was taking a thirty minute "comfort break"
  20. As much as I hate England RU and want them to lose every single match they ever play ever, I don't think you get to post about how they're in shambles after the World Cup Semi Finals even if SA put up a cricket score.
  21. WALTER doing anything should be sold like that.
  22. Two things I love about WALTER: he beats the fuck out of people and he finishes his matches with whatever he damn well pleases.
  23. Biggest upset since yesterday and Australia actually winning a match; which itself was the biggest upset since England got rolled by Afghanistan. Looks like no-one is so good at Cricket that they can't be beat on the wrong day.
  24. This isn't what Buttler meant when he said that he didn't feel like England wouldn't be "defending" their title. Joe Root had a quiet day with the bat but he took four catched and bowled another guy; finished the night more economical than any of the England pacemen. Where's Moeen Ali hiding? This was clearly a day for spin and not medium pace.
