Here's a post for all of you cricket lovers who don't quite know the rules and are thirsty for knowledge......You think the news has too much coverage now with England going 2-1 up in the series with one test to go....well...look out because if England don't lose, We have the Ashes. So here's the explanation:
You have two sides, one out in the field and one in. Each man that's in the side that's in goes out, and when he's out he comes in and the next man goes in until he's out. When they're all out, the side that's out comes in and the side that's been in goes out and tries to get those coming in, out. Sometimes you get men still in and not out. When a man goes out to go in, the men who are out try to get him out, and when he is out he goes in and the next man in goes out and goes in. There are two men called umpires who stay all out all the time and they decide when the men who are in are out. When both sides have been in and all the men have been out, and both sides have been out twice after all the men have been in, including those who are not out, that is the end of the game!
I don't know why no one understands this game, it's so simple!

Well that's the easy version, trying getting into the duckworth lewis method, rain and bad light stopping play and silly mid on!
But who's on first? ;-P
I didn't get that at all. Why must you Brits think up obscure sports that make no sense? Oh wait, we have football, never mind...
Jen, you don't have Football, you have for intent and purpose hand ball!
Football is played predominately with the feet and is the largest sport in the world...you may know it as soccer...find it in the small print beneath funeral services!
You smell like farts!
You smell like farts, too! Miss you!
But, but, you didn't explain the googlies! :D
