well i expected a reply kinda like that, and i make no defense of cricket, it is probably the most boring sport we have invented (and we have invented a lot), and listeining to it on the radio like my dad forces us to do when he is in the car...well its just torture. baseball can be just as boring when it is the bottom of the 9th (is that correct baseball terminology?)and there is no score. and it is just crap when the pitcher walks a hitter just cos he is good like they did to mark macguire a loada times

You might want to reconsider that cricket opinion.

Loads of people have been on TV saying how much they enjoyed that, having ignored cricket forever.

A one day event would have been something to experience. What kind of food is served at a typical event? I love to eat. I exercise only so that I can eat more dessert.
