Sorry just got back. Cricket is a great sport. Love it almost as much as music. England thrashed India yesterday in the one dayer but lost in test series 1-0. But 6 matches to go, could be 7-0. One of the coolest thing about cricket is that it is no1 sport in Jamaica (not that I've been there). Sun, sand, sea, ganja (not that I do that anymore really), REGGAE, rastafairianism and CRICKET. I would be in heaven.
Its not the greatest spectator sport and I firmly believe that football is and love that as much also but polos a bit weird. I was watching on TV a couple of weeks ago and I think it was some sort of World Cup thing and I know SC plays/played for Gloustershire (he must be pretty good to play at County level) and was hoping he would be on it but not so. It guys/girls on horses whacking a ball with a hammer, trying to get the ball in the goal, but the weirdest tactical thing I dont understand that there is no goalie. I wish the grandmaster could explain more. Ther's a place in Midhurst, in my county Sussex called Cowdray Park where all the lords and ladies inc Prince Charles aka The FA Cup. SC must have or still plays there. I've been past there loads of times but never watched polo. Maybe should check it out if/when SC plays.
Anyway I'm ranting on as always and I'm tired its 1:15am over here. Anyway enjoy the rest of day/night everyone and thanks for keepin real on the cricket. I hope 20/20 takes off round the world one day and trashes baseball. They have a world series in America which involves 2 countries. Weird but cant knock the fielding except for girly gloves!
I've cracked enough jokes and I've smoked enough smokes...........
