Cricket is neither boring or pointless if you get a good match...

Ok tell me the point of cricket, please fill me in on the point ive missed. And what the hell is a good match? How is it different to a bad one? Do they hit the ball abit harder or do they rub it on the crotch abit more? face it pal its rubbish. You throw the ball to try to knock some wood over the other guy trys to stop you. Why not make it better by doing away with the ball and bat rubbish and have one try to kick the wood down and the other trying to push you to the ground to try to stop you. Id watch that.

It's like any other sport ,you like it or you don't.If you don't then no one will change your mind.
There's lots of sports I don't like but if they bring other people pleasure then who am I to trash them.

Formula one would be interesting if there where a lot more crashes.and fatalities.
Still each to their own I'll settle for the safety of the Domino Table.:hehetable

Thought so,the rum gave it away.
there are loads of sports I don't like,that is to say I don't go to see them.But like I say if they make people happy it must be good.
by the way me and my dog are in the tortoise rounding up finals.

Bit like sheep dog trials but easier on the joints.:dogrun::D
Rums cheaper in La Nucia:jimbo:

There,s nowt boring about cricket, where else can you eyt a cucumber butt and have a pint, get a sun tan AND watch 22 blokes enjoy a walk-a-bout. Don,t knock it if you haven,t tried it.

Sport is enjoyed by different types of people for different types sport, My favourites are Footy, Cricket(because I play regularly when I was young) Snooker, Pool and Golf, other people my not like these, but it would be a very boring world if we all liked the same thing. For me I just can't see he point in Formula 1, but thats my choise.

Aleks, I don't suppose you're any wiser, in spite of Granny C's link. Why don't you stick to bare-knuckle fighting, then you don't have to use your brain.:)

Not really much point trying to educate you on the game to be honest, sport doesn't have to have "a point", it's an enjoyable pastime, it doesn't need to serve a purpose.:rolleyes:

Re: Cricket hooligans!!!
 
Hey Aleks, I will again extend an open invitation for you to come down to Accrington Cricket Club and watch a match, we play Nelson at home on Sunday and I will quite happily stand/ sit with you and explain the rules and regulations of the game.
You never know, you might even understand and enjoy it.
I may even buy you a pint.
Don't knock it till you have tried it......
ps my little bro is team captain and will be happy to give you the low down on bowling and G. LLoyd or Roy can tell you all you need to know about batting.
(Top of the Lancs League by 21 points and holders of the Worsley Cup.)
:alright:

Ps Ossylass is my mum, ie David Ormerod's mum, not much given to brawling in Ossy's pubs.

The point of cricket is to annoy the heck out of sports snobs who seem to think that the sporting world revolves around them and the rest of us should like what they like.:tongueout

Some obnoxious creep whose comment posted yesterday at 10:40 accompanying some negative Karma reads:
“you really do bore the **** out of me. Go die somewhere nice.”

It really is time that something was done about members being able to post comments anonymously.

My points total has been reduced by 14 so the most likely candidate is Aleks whose rep power is 29. It is time that I returned the complement but I have signed my comment. Your total has gone down by 21.

I've said many times before, unsigned karma can be aggravating, but offensive comments, which that certainly is, is against forum rules, and should be forwarded to a moderator to deal with.

To me that deserves a ban, for whoever posted it.

agree with rindy about offensive comments, but think people who consistently moan about neg karma is very sad.

jambutty 10-08-2008 18:18
Re: Cricket hooligans!!!
 
Get your facts right cashman.

I moan about the nasty out of order comments not the Karma thing itself and I will continue to highlight those sort of events.:tongueout
