I really like the cricket, especially if the Aussies are beating the English (Poms) Eg the World Cup!

Please don't hurt me for saying that

Yea i wasn't really there for the Cricket, at one point the whole west stand was more interested in joining the snakes than the actual game

Bear Snake = a tower of empty plastic pint glasses.

Sounds like Baseball.


Its fun to play, but i'd rather play russian roulete than watch it on t.v.

Now College Football (American Football the good stuff) i could watch that all day.

Ya, only little kids and girls play Soccer here in America.


David Beckam is virtually unknown here, he's still known as Posh Spices husband.



They try to push soccer on americans, but no one gives a crap about here.


We have real sports, like Baseball, Football, and Basketball, not to mention the BEST athletes in the world.


Any game where you can tie 0-0 is lame.

Ya, Hockey is Canadian. Good job !


I think hockey sucks too.


SO the wimpier the sport, the better it is ?




Sounds like somebody got there ass kicked by a few jocks in school.

Dont worry Brawny, theres plenty of genetically inferior guys such as yourself in the world, your not alone.
