Poor man's baseball really ...


just kidding. I have to admit I've been in Oz for 7 years and still don't fully understand it. I think you have to grow up with it. The pubs here in Brisbane are crawling with Barmy's Army.

I used to be a massive cricket fan, staying up late nights to watch Steve Waugh captain the team... but now with Ponting as cpt it just makes me angry to watch it so I try and avoid it.

Although starting with 609 runs, and the poms being 3/50 odd last time i saw it... not looking good for your chances of keeping the Ashes.

I much rather watching football games these days, Sydney FC won last night 3-0 and I was partying with the players/coach till about 4am.... now I can't talk and someone is setting off small explosives inside my head.

Oh yeah, and I tried a baseball game once.. LA Dodgers vs someone else, that thing went for 12 hours and totally bored me to tears but i was only 14 so maybe that had something to do with it.
