The Ashes

Post by Lewis »

Ho-Bloody-Ray, it is that time year when people in the UK watch the most tiresome of all sports, cricket.

I will just say now that it is one the most tiresome things that pollute television, and just hearing about it on the TV wants to make me scream.

I just can't wait for the Ashes to end.

But I will say one thing and that is 'Thank you Sky Sports for taking the Ashes off Terrestrial television. Otherwise my brother would be watching that for the whole summer, and that would drive me mad.'

When I was a boy, I thought cricket was a bug. The father of H.G. Wells was a cricket player. :mrgreen:

Yeah, I hear that dude. I am getting the Ashes here in Australia too at the moment. You know, it's been 5.5 weeks since you first posted this thread, AND THAT SAME BLOODY GAME IS STILL GOING ON. Unbelievable.

There's a 7.5 hour daily TV coverage of a day's play here, AND I'M PROUD TO SAY I HAVEN'T WATCHED A SINGLE SECOND OF IT!

I was, however, unfortunate enough to accidentally catch a press conference of the Australian and English captains, BUT THEY WERE TALKING ABOUT AN INCIDENT WITH A STUPID ABUSIVE FAN! Why does that not surprise me?! Good old reliably stupid sports fans.

Oh goody, England won. I was hoping that bunch of overpaid morons would be crushed but now all the papers are gonna be going on about how great they are for being the best people in the world for hitting a small ball with a block of wood! How fucking great. Oh well, like you say Lewis, at least it's over. For now...
Best guestbook comment ever!:

I THINK ALL SPORTS ARE TOTAL RUBBISH. THEY SHOULD BE BANNED FROM TV. THEN ALL PEOPLE WHO TAKE PART IN THE SPORTS SHOULD BE PUT AGAINST A WALL AND SHOT AND KILLED.

Do you know what is f*cked up!? The fact that Gordon Brown is writing a letter to the England cricket team, and yet he has remained silent over the release of the Lockerby Bomber! What is wrong with him!?
